DazPettymaybe there is a nother culprit00:00
mrkrampshard to debug … i just know some this may happen for some input devices. i had the same issue with a thinknav with 12.0400:01
DazPettyhmmm00:05
mrkrampsmy temporary solution was to install a sdd to speed up reboot :S00:08
DazPettywhen my comp boots up00:14
DazPettyi want it to run "xwacomset" +variables00:15
DazPettyso that it will set my wacom to one screen00:15
DazPettyI allready know what to type into bash, but where could i put this to get it to do it automaticly00:15
mrkrampsstart script in lightdm or autostart of your session00:16

new_2_xubuntuHi all. I have an HP Pavilion 23bw, max resolution 1920x1080 60HZ, and I have a Lenovo ThinkCentre M55. I can only get a max resolution of 1024x768 to display on my monitor thru a VGA cable.00:30
new_2_xubuntumy lcpsi is here http://paste.debian.net/164598/00:30
new_2_xubuntunot sure what else might be helpful00:31
new_2_xubuntuoh xrandr here: http://paste.debian.net/164599/00:31
new_2_xubuntuThis is Xubuntu 14.0400:32
mrkrampsvga might be the culprit here00:33
new_2_xubuntuoh?00:33
mrkrampsbut you may also try to add a modeline for fullhd00:34
new_2_xubuntuHmmm well I just added 1920x1080_60.00 and my display is all squished to one side, can barely see to type :P00:37
new_2_xubuntuis VGA not made to handle 1920x1080? Bummer.00:38
mrkrampsvga is not the best choice for fullhd, but yes … in most cases it should work00:39
new_2_xubuntuCould my cable be a factor? I don't see how, but ruled out many other things so far, have not tried a new cable yet.00:39

mrkrampsresp. http://superuser.com/questions/311378/how-to-get-a-higher-resolution-on-ubuntu-11-04-using-an-intel-chipset00:43
mrkrampsmaybe just retry adding the modeline as mentioned in the second link00:43
new_2_xubuntuSo it was apparently the cable...00:56
new_2_xubuntuI swapped the cable for another that I had, now I get 1920x1080 on this monitor.00:56
new_2_xubuntuThanks for talking me through it! :P00:57

UllarahHey hey! My HDDs have to be mounted by going into Thunar and then clicking on them. Is there a way for them to be mounted automatically on startup?11:53
UllarahQuenz, check out redshift.11:53

UllarahEdit to your liking12:43
QuenzOkay, so how do I stop it changing the color temperature? I only want to use it to up the gamma. Ullarah?13:04
UllarahQuenz, http://jonls.dk/redshift/13:05
UllarahYou can disable the temp part. And just use the gamma part.13:05
Ullarah;gamma-day=0.8:0.7:0.813:06
Ullarah;gamma-night=0.613:06
UllarahThose two specifically.13:06
UllarahOr you can set it so you have one single gamma, gamma=0.813:06
QuenzUllarah: How do I disable the temp part?13:23
QuenzRemoving it from the config file doesn't work.13:23

soulEscaperhey. i installed openbox in xubuntu and i specified the gtk2 theme in the gtk rc16:01
soulEscaperbut sometimes the application doesnt use the theme16:02
soulEscaperfor example xarchever uses the theme, but software-center doesnt16:02
soulEscaperany idea how to fix this?16:02
holsteini might try #ubuntu or an openbox specific channel16:03
soulEscaperyes, the openbox channel has only 6 users, and the issue is not openbox , but gtk related16:04
holsteinsure, im not making any assumption about what the "issue" is related to.. just trying to help you get somewhere that you can get an answer, since, the issue likely is not a problem in xfce/xubuntu16:05
holsteinyou have tried specifying with a flag? and running from command line?16:06
soulEscaperyes16:06
holsteinso, specifying per application with a flag *does* apply the theme you want?16:07
soulEscaperi the programs that don t use the theme use gtk 316:07
mrkrampssoulEscaper, software-center requires a gtk3 theme afaik16:07
holsteinsounds like thats the issue.. you may need to specify per application16:07
soulEscaperi searched on the internet, but there is no guide that explains how to install a gtk3 theme in xubuntu16:10
mrkrampsoO16:10
holsteinsoulEscaper: sure.. you dont really need it for "xubuntu" specifically, since you are not using xubuntu16:10
holsteinxubuntu *is* ubuntu.. so, you just do what is needed for gtk/ubuntu/debian, and that *should* do the trick..16:10
soulEscaperyes, most gtk3 packages are installed by default, I don t think all of them are in xubuntu and I don t want to install all the gnome packages16:13
soulEscaperso i need to know what i have to install for gtk3 to work in xubuntu/openbox16:13
GridCubeit already does16:14
GridCubeyou dont need to do anyting16:14
holsteinsoulEscaper: the themes should specify what they need.. there is not "xubuntu/openbox" distro..16:14
holsteinsoulEscaper: what theme are you trying to use?16:14
mrkrampssoulEscaper, you need ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and ~/.gtkrc-3.016:15
mrkrampsotherwise the theme is not found in the openbox session16:15
holsteinit really should be that simple ^ and the theme should tell how to set it up..16:15
soulEscaperfor example this theme: http://horst3180.deviantart.com/art/Vertex-Theme-47066360116:15
holsteinsoulEscaper: try using a "known good" simple theme.. make sure its not something with the theme its self that is "broken"..16:16
soulEscaperok16:16
mrkrampsand ask for help in an openbox or lubuntu channel … this is nothing related to xubuntu16:16
holsteinone of the ones here, for example http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=167 something with good ratings..16:16
soulEscaperI also don t have a ~/.gtkrc-3.016:19
soulEscaperso I will try to make that, and if it doesn t work i will go to the gnome channel16:20
soulEscaperthanks for help16:20
holsteinsoulEscaper: you should be able to easily create that, and the other things that are needed for the theme16:20
holsteinsoulEscaper: you are also not using gnome16:20
soulEscaperwell the app uses a gnome them, so i think the gnome channel is maybe the best place for this issue16:21
holsteinwhat app?16:21
soulEscaperfile-roller, audacious, software-center, synaptic, .. they all use gtk3 theme s and don t have an option to use gtk 2 , I think it s stupid16:22
mrkramps*sigh'*16:23
holsteinsoulEscaper: sure.. let the maintainers know, otherwise, try installing a gtk3 theme, since, that *is* where things are going..16:23
soulEscaperok I will let them know, because also every time they update gnome, most of the old gtk 3 themes break, which is also not desirable16:25
soulEscaperthanks for the help16:25
soulEscaperwc16:26
nshthis is a bit silly, but i can't find how to change the screensaver/locking settings... screen locks completely independently of lightlocker settings (which was how it used to be changed)17:19
nshi think maybe gnome-screensaver is the culprit, but no dialog for it in settings manager17:21

b1shopi have a custom xubuntu livecd, and i would like to install it locally.  is there a package I can add to do that?  there is no menu option in this one like I am used to17:57
* slickymaster also wanders off to start dealing with dinner17:57
holsteinb1shop: i would ask the creators of the distro.. or, try the stock xubuntu installer, or mini iso, where you can install and customize as you please..17:57
holstein!mini17:57
ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD17:57
slickymasterbah wrong channel. Sorry guys17:57
b1shopholstein: yeah. tried them. but while i was waiting for them to get back i thought i would check here.  i thought there was a package for the local install in xubuntu.  i figured just adding that to this distro might work17:59
holsteinb1shop: there sure is! just grab xubuntu and use it..17:59
b1shoplol.  this distro has some additional software and changes to udev.  i wanted to keep all the changes18:00
holsteinhopefully "they" provide you an installer..18:01
=== littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica
b1shopi was looking for usb-creator-gtk18:16
holsteinb1shop: you can use unetbootin as well.. but, thats not an installer, in the traditional sense18:20

tomreynhi, i'm running xubuntu 14.04 and am trying to record the audio which is currently being played back. i looked at some guides but all og them suggest either using sound-/audio recorder, which fails to record here, or using audacity, where i cannot select the right input source.20:10
tomreynwould you know how to record audio which is currently being played back on xubuntu 14.04 ?20:10
bazhangonly audio? or a full screencast20:11
=== littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica
tomreynjust audio would suffice, but either is fine20:11
tomreyn(note i don't have gnome-desktop-environment installed and would prefer to keep it this way)20:11
bazhangkazam is fairly light in the screencast dept20:12
tomreynthanks, i'll give it a try20:17

Guest974534it said it was unable to install to the computer and Ubuntu software center had and error after that.20:39
knomeit's impossible to say what it is about unless we have the exact error message20:40
Guest974534i think it happen because i downloaded for that Internet .sorry i forgot what the message said exactly20:42
knomeyou should always install applications from the repositories when possible20:42
