[03:03] <eikon81g> bluesabre, or Unit193 are you available for a second for a question?
[03:22] <Unit193> Why not ask a question and see/
[04:23] <xubuntu62w> hey
[04:24] <xubuntu62w> I have a problem with sound, it doesn't work
[04:59] <mpmc> Morning folks, trying to boot a daily build 15.04 iso via a usb stick on my thinkpad and it begins to load but then I get "unable to find a medium containing a live file system". I'm going to burn it to a dvd and try it that way, very odd!
[05:17] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: Do you have iommu enabled?
[05:17] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: In the bios, I mean
[05:17] <mpmc> Enkidu_ak: Not sure, but I just tried a dvd and it froze.
[05:18] <mpmc> Now I'm getting Magic is broken!
[05:18] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: Go into your bios, look for iommu. You should find it with legacy usb and pci bus settings.
[05:19] <mpmc> k, I'll take a poke.
[05:23] <mpmc> Enkidu_ak: Had a poke about, no iommu settings, however UEFI/Legacy boot is set to UEFI only.
[05:24] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: What mb are you using?
[05:25] <mpmc> Enkidu_ak: Its a thinkpad laptop [Edge E525 (1200 CTO I think)
[05:28] <mpmc> Changing UEFI/LB to both looks like it may have done the trick! well it still loading from the CD but it hasn't borked yet! Fingers crossed!.
[05:30] <mpmc> Woot I see a desktop!
[05:31] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: Ah. I had a similar issue and discovered that iommu had to be enabled for kernel 3 to play nice with usb 3 and some ethernet chipsets. Glad that it was less complicated :)
[05:31] <Enkidu_ak> mpmc: I'm still not sure what iommu is exactly.
[05:31] <mpmc> I had 14.04 (Lubuntu) on it before with UEFI only & that ran fine. :s
[05:56] <linux_unix-10> hi
[05:58] <baizon> hi | linux_unix-10
[05:58] <linux_unix-10> i'm trying to install flash player and have it run in midori but i can't install nspluginwrapper
[05:59] <linux_unix-10> it can't find nspluginviewer
[05:59] <baizon> linux_unix-10: there is a linux version of flash
[05:59] <linux_unix-10> tried to manually force-install (32-bit) but it got stuck in dependency hell
[06:00] <baizon> linux_unix-10: install the linux version and create a link, that should solve the problem
[06:06] <linux_unix-10> linux version installed, but midori can't detect it
[06:08] <linux_unix-10> how do i create a link?
[06:11] <baizon> linux_unix-10: ou well i think you need nspluginwrapper
[06:11] <linux_unix-10> exactly my problem
[06:11] <baizon> so much dirty work to do
[06:11] <Unit193> export MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH="/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" or for me since I have adobe-flashplugin, export MOZ_PLUGIN_PATH="/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/"
[06:11] <baizon> install the nspluginwrapper
[06:13] <linux_unix-10> can't install: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[06:13] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginwrapper : Depends: nspluginviewer (= 1.4.4-0ubuntu5) but it is not installable
[06:13] <linux_unix-10> E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
[06:13] <baizon> linux_unix-10: https://wiki.xfce.org/midori/faq#flash_doesn_t_work
[06:14] <baizon> linux_unix-10: nspluginviewer is not available for 64 bit version
[06:14] <baizon> linux_unix-10: sudo apt-get install nspluginviewer:i386
[06:15] <linux_unix-10> can't locate package
[06:17] <baizon> linux_unix-10: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=nspluginviewer&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
[06:17] <baizon> pick the right one and download
[06:17] <baizon> then install via dpkg
[06:24] <linux_unix-10> no dice
[06:24] <linux_unix-10> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nspluginviewer:
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libc6 (>= 2.15).
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1).
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.24.0).
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.24.0).
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libx11-6.
[06:24] <linux_unix-10>  nspluginviewer depends on libxt6.
[06:25] <baizon> linux_unix-10: sudo apt-get install -f
[06:25] <baizon> that should fix it
[06:26] <linux_unix-10> nothing
[12:22] <xubuntu06o> alien
[12:23] <xubuntu06o> is there anyone?
[12:24] <xubuntu06o> I need help to let my epson scanner work with Xubuntu
[12:24] <bazhang> !info simple-scan
[12:25] <bazhang> try that ^ xubuntu06o
[12:26] <xubuntu06o> I have tried but it recognizes the scanner but it does not work properly
[12:27] <bazhang> what do you mean 'properly'
[12:28] <xubuntu06o> Seems to start then it immediately stops
[12:29] <xubuntu06o> with Windows Xp it worked well until yesterday
[12:31] <xubuntu06o> when I launch preview it blocks on it
[12:31] <xubuntu06o> it  started
[12:32] <xubuntu06o> I just canceled the value for pre-heating
[12:32] <xubuntu06o> thanks
[12:32] <bazhang> it works now?
[14:03] <phre4k> when I uninstall light-locker, does the screen not get locked anymore?
[14:03] <phre4k> how can I prevent the screen from being locked automatically? The light-locker-settings app doesn't seem to channge anything.
[14:14] <nomic> phrek there is another screensaver which is still affexting
[14:14] <nomic> xset -display :0 s off
[14:14] <nomic> xset -display :0 -dpms
[14:14] <nomic> xset -display :0 s noblank
[14:14] <nomic> put those commands into your .bashrc or autorun, as a script to kill the x screensaver xset q will show you that it is active
[14:15] <cfhowlett> nomic, xscreensaver has been known to conflict with lightlocker according to xfce.org
[14:15] <nomic> the facility of light locker has over-ridden the old screen saver admin (which was working) - it does not stop the xset screensaver from blanking your screen - this is a problem
[14:15] <nomic> ie. its affects everyone - and has not been fixed -- light locker has caused problems
[14:15] <nomic> it does
[14:16] <nomic> you must issue those xset commands to disable the x screen saver
[14:16] <nomic> screen saver / linux - screensaver is like a trojan imo
[14:16] <phre4k> the problem is not that the screen blanks but the locking
[14:16] <nomic> the locking also
[14:16] <nomic> is because of your power manager
[14:16] <nomic> which you cannot turn off
[14:16] <nomic> without
[14:17] <phre4k> so dpms controls screen locking too?
[14:17] <phre4k> and I can't disable automatic locking at all?
[14:17] <phre4k> wtf is this sh...?
[14:17] <nomic> the admin isn't good it isn't fixed
[14:17] <nomic> this hasn't been addressed imo
[14:17] <nomic> there are multiple fixes
[14:18] <nomic> some genius decided to create this "light locker" which is not addressing anything
[14:18] <nomic> sounds cood - great name "light locker"
[14:18] <knome> nomic, please.
[14:18] <nomic> things worked, before
[14:18] <phre4k> so how do I fix this asap?
[14:18] <nomic> well anyway - I stopped the screensaver kicking in with those xset settings - to stop the power manager locking my screen when the lid is closed, I had to do something else fiddly (i forget)
[14:19] <nomic> both through the command line
[14:19] <knome> phre4k, please remember that this is a family friendly channel and your language should match that.
[14:19] <nomic> ask the experts there may be some here
[14:19] <nomic> did I swear?
[14:19] <nomic> no.
[14:19] <phre4k> nomic: he meant me
[14:19] <nomic> im out of here I tried to help .. bbl
[14:21] <phre4k> so to prevent the screen from locking, I'd do xset -dpms, disable it in light-locker-settings and xfce4-power-manager?
[14:21] <phre4k> Or are there any other steps?
[14:21] <nomic> that turns off your power manager I think -dpms
[14:21] <brainvvash_> if you don't need screen locking, why not simply uninstall light-locker?
[14:21] <nomic> it locks when
[14:22] <nomic> i'd certainly do that
[14:22] <nomic> (uninstall light locker)
[14:22] <nomic> other people have defeated the issue by uninstalling power manager
[14:23] <nomic> this is drastic surgery .. cut cut - throw organs out
[14:23] <nomic> maybe not needed
[14:23] <nomic> stops immediate problem
[14:23] <nomic> btw. when was a screen saver needed, -- it must have been last needed in 1982
[14:23] <phre4k> brainvvash_: that was what I asked
[14:24] <knome> nomic, i've sent you a PM and i expect you to have read it.
 when I uninstall light-locker, does the screen not get locked anymore?
[14:24] <phre4k> I will now try to uninstall light-locker and look if this solves the problem.
[14:53] <msev> would the pushbullet indicator work in xfce? (I have xfce 4.12 installed on top of ubuntu 14.04)
[14:53] <msev> since now there's a desktop indicator I've read (and not just a browser extension)
[14:57] <msev> from atareo-team I believe
[14:59] <knome> you would have to ask the developers of that indicator
[15:00] <knome> (or maybe just try if it works...)
[15:00] <msev> ok :)
[15:00] <msev> so there isn't some general rule, that all ubuntu indicators work also in xfce?
[15:02] <knome> general rules are general, not always applying to a specific case (which is what you are asking)
[15:02] <msev> cool, tnx
[17:55] <pl> Hi. I'm trying xubuntu 15.04. There is something I don't get: the resize grips of windows is too small (1px), it's unusable. I read that I should set a theme with a bigger grip. I installed xfwm4-themes, but no new theme shows up in the Appearance settings window.
[17:55] <pl> what am I missing?
[17:56] <brainvvash_> pl, settings manager > window manager
[17:57] <elfy> also try resizing with alt+right mouse button
[17:57] <elfy> easier anyway imho
[18:08] <pl> brainvvash_, thanks
[18:09] <brainvvash_> pl, if you want to invest some time, take a look at http://sevkeifert.blogspot.de/2014/12/increase-window-border-size-in-xubuntu.html
[18:10] <pl> brainvvash_, I will, thanks
[18:47] <KM0201> so i'm dealing w/ soemone who hosed their menu trying to edit it... is there a way to return it to default, and start over?  xubuntu 14.04
[18:48] <KM0201> anyone?
[19:17] <bynarie> maybe try removing xubuntu-defaults and reinstalling it?
[19:17] <bynarie> not sure
[19:17] <bynarie> sorry its xubuntu-default-settings
[19:20] <knome> he's gone ages ago, and no, that's not going to overwrite the personal settings done by the user
[19:21] <mrkramps> rm ~/.config/menus/xfce-applications.menu should do the trick
[19:22] <knome> and removing the custom .desktop files, if any
[19:22] <bynarie> ah
[19:22] <bynarie> good to know
[19:22] <knome> from ~/.local/share/applications/
[19:29] <pl> Is there a way to autolock the session on xubuntu 15.10?
[19:31] <bazhang> there is no such version
[19:31] <pl> sorry
[19:31] <pl> 15.04
[19:31] <bazhang> ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:32] <pl> but I think it's xfce-related
[19:33] <bazhang> then try the xfce channel, vivid is the above channel
[19:38] <Unit193> bazhang: Xubuntu post beta is supported here too.
[19:38] <Unit193> pl: Xubuntu ships with light-locker, which is used to lock the session.
[19:38] <pl> Hi Unit193 :)
[19:38] <bazhang> Unit193, ok apologies
[19:38] <Unit193> Heya!
[19:39] <Unit193> bazhang: No problem, I know it differes from usual.
[19:39] <pl> Unit193, indeed it's what I use with lightdm, but I was looking for an easy menu setting, as the computer I'm configuring is not for me
[19:42] <Unit193> pl: You can add the "Action Buttons" to the panel, which will allow you to select to switch user/lock screen.
[19:43] <Unit193> Or even create a launcher with menulibre or in whisker itself for `xflock4`
[20:01] <scrapcode> my software updater window shakes when I try to install the new updates. I've caught it via screenshot and it says I don't have the permissions.
[20:10] <knome> scrapcode, do you?
[20:11] <knome> scrapcode, or in other words, can you do other things that require the sudo access?
[20:24] <scrapcode> knome: No... but I don't understand why anything has changed? It shakes and closes immediately. I can gksu the software center just fine
[20:24] <scrapcode> I found something on stackexchg last week about a config file to check that had perms but I can't find it now. However, that all looked like it should according to the resource that I was following
[20:25] <scrapcode> I really wouldn't mind if I could just get the "You have new updates" window to stop displaying and be done with it
[21:13] <gnumbknuts> Could some-one please tell me where I might find a xfwm theme that has wide grab resize corners? I wish to copy the bottom-left-active.xpm ...etc  files into the Bluebird them .

[21:16] <CountryfiedLinux> howdy
[21:17] <gjgarza> hi
[21:17] <CountryfiedLinux> Is there a link with the official wallpaper for 15.04? I'd rather not download and boot it just to get a wallpaper.
[21:19] <knome> you can download the xubuntu-artwork package for 15.40
[21:19] <knome> *15.04
[21:20] <mrkramps> you could also download its source package and extract it
[21:20] <knome> well, xubuntu-wallpapers really
[21:20] <knome> that exactly
[21:21] <mrkramps> CountryfiedLinux, http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/xubuntu-wallpapers
[21:23] <CountryfiedLinux> cool thanks mrkramps
[21:23] <msev> is "snappy" different than "ubuntu core"? :)
[21:23] <msev> or are those two names for the same thing?
[21:24] <mrkramps> msev, https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/
[21:25] <msev> so same thing :)
[21:25] <mrkramps> nope
[21:25] <msev> dang
[21:25] <msev> ok now I atleast know the answer
[21:25] <msev> :D
[21:25] <mrkramps> it is some kind of optimized image for this so called internet of things
[21:26] <msev> so "snappy" is sort of an alternative to "apt-get"?
[21:27] <mrkramps> yes
[21:28] <msev> thanks
[22:43] <DazPetty> hey guys,
[22:43] <DazPetty> I am about to install xubuntu
[22:43] <DazPetty> I am running a dual boot
[22:43] <DazPetty> I allready have Manjaro linux installed, but it is corrupted
[22:44] <DazPetty> I am just going to erase it's partition
[22:44] <DazPetty> and install xubuntu
[22:44] <DazPetty> will it reinstall grub?
[22:44] <DazPetty> and everything will be fine?
[22:45] <mrkramps> yes, you just have to select the appropiate drive to overwrite your old grub installation
[22:48] <DazPetty> mrkramps, where is grub installed?
[22:48] <DazPetty> in my windows partition?
[22:49] <DazPetty> can I just get Xubuntu to overright my manjaro on install?
[22:50] <mrkramps> i have no idea where you installed grub, but i guess it it on your primary drive
[22:50] <CountryfiedLinux> You can write whatever you want over whatever you want to DazPetty
[22:50] <DazPetty> I'm just watching this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcbTgMKpVHQ
[22:50] <mrkramps> a new install will overwrite everything else in the selected partition
[22:51] <DazPetty> ye cool
[22:51] <DazPetty> I thought as much
[22:51] <DazPetty> I just want to be careful
[22:51] <DazPetty> I will backup as much as I can first
[22:51] <DazPetty> ~ A new install will reinstall grub though wont it (which is good)
[22:52] <DazPetty> mrkramps, it wouldn't install grub on the windows partition (or would it?)
[22:52] <mrkramps> you can select the drive in the installer
[22:53] <DazPetty> windows partitions are NTFS
[22:56] <mrkramps> and the grub bootloader will be installed in the master boot record … does not matter which file system the partitions on this drive will use
[22:57] <DazPetty> ok thanks, I'm going to go give it a try
[22:58] <mrkramps> just take care of a backup and you are always good to go
[23:43] <dazdaryl> hey guys
[23:43] <dazdaryl> I am installing xubuntu right now
[23:43] <dazdaryl> i have a swap drive from an old manjaro installation
[23:43] <Enkidu_ak> I'm trying to figure out how to install vivid onto a raid0 without resorting to Ubuntu server. The array is already configured, but mdadm won't be present on a standard installation, so the array won't be assembled at boot. I was thinking that after installation I would boot from a live image, chroot to the assembled array and install mdaadm manually.
[23:45] <knome> Enkidu_ak, minimal iso?
[23:45] <Enkidu_ak> knome: Minimal comes with mdadm?
[23:46] <dazdaryl> i have 24gb of ram
[23:46] <dazdaryl> should i do a 50gb swap partition?
[23:46] <dazdaryl> or will 16 gb do it?
[23:47] <dazdaryl> and I was going to give my root 140gb
[23:47] <dazdaryl> my home 800gb
[23:47] <dazdaryl> where does xubuntu install stuff? and steam install?
[23:52] <mrkramps> dazdaryl, do you make use of swap?
[23:53] <mrkramps> in terms of suspend to disk e.g.
[23:54] <mrkramps> root will unlikely require more than 20 GB, even with many packages installed and steam installs games in /home
[23:56] <dazdaryl> probably not mrcraps
[23:56] <dazdaryl> *mrkramps
[23:56] <dazdaryl> ~ on my old arch setup i had 80gb and it ran out
[23:56] <mrkramps> 80GB /root?!
[23:56] <dazdaryl> because i pretty much installed every other bloody thing from the respository
[23:57] <dazdaryl> yeah because arch's default location to install things was .opt
[23:57] <mrkramps> well, true
[23:57] <dazdaryl> I'm a game developer
[23:57] <dazdaryl> I went back to windows for a year to use some windows only tools :(
[23:57] <dazdaryl> now unreal engine 4 is working on linux :)
[23:57] <dazdaryl> so i'm going back
[23:58] <dazdaryl> ~ the software repositories aren't that recent
[23:58] <dazdaryl> so someone has suggested i build straight from git
[23:58] <mrkramps> which also can be done in /home
[23:59] <dazdaryl> yep
[23:59] <mrkramps> but anyways, you have quite some space on your drive - if you feel better with 140GB /root it is nothing wring about
[23:59] <dazdaryl> yeah its a 2tb disk
[23:59] <dazdaryl> got 1tb for windows
[23:59] <dazdaryl> 1 tb for linux
