[00:56] <CountryfiedLinux> How do I turn off lid close settings on my laptop? I want to close it turning off my screen?
[02:29] <xubuntu34w> Ok, Guess I'm here.. First time here. Have Dell Latitude D6xx older laptop. Want to buy Xubuntu cd from somewhere. this machine would be used for music and online movies 99% of the time. I don't know any of the commands in unix/linux Xubuntu etc..... Can Xubuntu show movies. Any idea where I can get tutorials online. would like to read tutorials on other laptop while Xubuntu is on this one after I install it. This computer has no
[02:30] <xubuntu34w> burn a a cd
[02:30] <StanDarsh> Yeah it can totally do that bud.
[02:30] <xubuntu34w> cool
[02:31] <ObrienDave> d/l the ISO for free. no need to buy
[02:31] <TimeVirus> and what movies are you wanting to watch?
[02:31] <TimeVirus> DVDs?
[02:32] <TimeVirus> streaming?
[02:32] <TimeVirus> youtube?
[02:32] <xubuntu34w> Hey, this is a windows xp system. if download iso, don't know how to go about making it run.
[02:32] <StanDarsh> Burning to a CD is probably easiest.
[02:32] <StanDarsh> or DVD rather.
[02:32] <TimeVirus> but then thats streaming too yes but my streaming I meant Netflix or something like that
[02:32] <ObrienDave> burn ISO to DVD, boot DVD and try
[02:33] <Unit193> Or, USB.
[02:33] <ObrienDave> install if you like it
[02:33] <xubuntu34w> youtube  and other free site type movies. and i guess tutuorials are at youtube
[02:33] <xubuntu34w> i ha netflix
[02:33] <TimeVirus> free can be done a few ways
[02:34] <xubuntu34w> free ..... keep talking ... am listinening
[02:34] <TimeVirus> for netflix you can install Google Chrome and with Ubuntu it will work no problem
[02:34] <ObrienDave> free OS, free software. does not get any better
[02:35] <TimeVirus> I use a program called smplayer and smtube for watching youtube as I dont like to fire up a browser for that
[02:36] <TimeVirus> installing Linux is easy peasy
[02:36] <xubuntu34w> thanks, these programs ie... smplayer are downloadable after i get Xubuntu running on this laptop
[02:36] <ObrienDave> yes
[02:36] <TimeVirus> all you need to do is go to the homepage and read about how to do it
[02:36] <TimeVirus> really is easy
[02:37] <ObrienDave> it will take a little learning on your part. once you get the hang of it, it's very easy
[02:37] <TimeVirus> installing Xubuntu that is all the rest CAN be even easier
[02:37] <xubuntu34w> look i have been searching how to download Xubuntu online and get it going that way. because i have no ce or flash drive capability
[02:38] <StanDarsh> Well, to play music and online music it's gonna be perfect. Use a DVD dude, USB is easy too but a bit more involved.
[02:38] <TimeVirus> no cd drive?
[02:38] <xubuntu34w> homepate... ?    Xubuntu homepage.... to find out how to install online.  is this correct????
[02:38] <TimeVirus> Ubuntu
[02:38] <ObrienDave> you'll have to use someone elses computer to do the burning
[02:39] <ObrienDave> you can't from XP
[02:39] <xubuntu34w> understood.  i might as well just buy the cd from some place if it's not possible to download and install it online.
[02:39] <xubuntu34w> i can't burn a cd
[02:39] <xubuntu34w> can't put a flashdrive in this laptop
[02:40] <StanDarsh> Yikes
[02:40] <StanDarsh> Locked down pretty good eh?
[02:40] <ObrienDave> no USB ports?
[02:40] <xubuntu34w> old computer. runninjg window xp sp3
[02:41] <xubuntu34w> the only usb port i inoperative
[02:41] <StanDarsh> Tighttt
[02:41] <xubuntu34w> cls
[02:41] <TimeVirus> yours is NOT as old as mine for I own a D420 and it is running Xubuntu very nicely indeed
[02:41] <ObrienDave> go buy a cheap USB add-in card
[02:41] <TimeVirus> lol
[02:42] <ObrienDave> oh, laptop. dang
[02:42] <TimeVirus> that Dell has a pcmcia slot yes?
[02:43] <StanDarsh> Can I run fluxbox-type window decorations from withing xfce?
[02:43] <StanDarsh> I always find the title bars use too many pixels by default.
[02:43] <xubuntu34w> ok, so got accomplished . where to get  tutorials (youtube). consider buying a usb add-in card. homepage for any questions i gots about Xubuntu and for support. am i missing anything.  ohhh yea, download chrome for movies and music. miss anything???
[02:44] <xubuntu34w> yes, has pcm slot
[02:44] <ObrienDave> you did say laptop, yes?
[02:44] <xubuntu34w> yes...
[02:44] <ObrienDave> forget the add-in card. find one that works off of the pcmcia slot
[02:45] <TimeVirus> yes
[02:45] <xubuntu34w> i see, thanks ,  am cooking,,,, got ta go.. thanks everyone
[02:45] <TimeVirus> there are pcmcia cards that can give you usb2 or even 3
[02:45] <StanDarsh> cya bud
[02:46] <ObrienDave> http://www.frys.com/product/4562347?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
[02:46] <xubuntu34w> thanks for the link
[02:46] <StanDarsh> Haven't seen one of those for a long time.
[02:46] <StanDarsh> haha
[02:46] <ObrienDave> just for an example. you're welcome
[02:47] <StanDarsh> So, dudes. Anyone have an internet radio app they like?
[02:47] <TimeVirus> I LOVE my old Dell :)
[02:47] <TimeVirus> lol
[02:48] <TimeVirus> still ticking after 8+ years
[02:48] <TimeVirus> a bit tight on RAM but is good to go with Xubuntu and others
[02:49] <StanDarsh> RAM-limited machines were how I came to love Linux in general.
[02:49] <ObrienDave> not really radio, but i like pithos for pandora client
[02:49] <TimeVirus> and comm ports bespeckle it rather nicely
[02:49] <StanDarsh> Reviving old PCs.
[02:49] <TimeVirus> yeah
[02:50] <TimeVirus> this dude even has IR lol
[02:50] <TimeVirus> not very useful but fun
[02:50] <StanDarsh> I am NOT into the default music player that comes with Xubuntu.
[02:50] <TimeVirus> smplayer for me
[02:51] <StanDarsh> I wish I could have something like foobar2000
[02:51] <StanDarsh> But with radio functionality.
[04:01] <DazPetty> hey can anyone help me with my ftp server?
[04:02] <holstein> DazPetty: you'll have to ask, and see if a volunteer can assist.. you can use #ubuntu as well, since its not related to xubuntu or xfce
[04:02] <holstein> !ftp
[04:03] <DazPetty> ok holstein
[06:43] <hrzhu> Does anyone have probem with ejecting usb hdd in Xubuntu? Can you have a look at this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1434766 and confirm it
[08:36] <KNF> How to change default terminal when I click ctrl+alt+t ?
[08:50] <xubuntu10w> Hello, I have a problem setting up extended display over 2 external moniters (laptop is in dock)
[12:31] <knob> Good morning all! o/
[15:51] <drc> From http://xfce.org/about/tour (of xfce 4.14 which is now in Xubuntu 15.04B2)) "The [Parole] media controls are now contained in a slide-over overlay (with a configurable timeout).".  Can't find the config for this feature anywhere in Parole.  Someone care to enlighten me?
[15:52] <drc> s/4.14/4.12/
[15:54]  * drc would be perfectly happy to be show the blantently obvious config that he looked at a dozen times and just never saw :)
[15:57] <ochosi> drc: it's a hidden setting
[15:57] <ochosi> hide-controls-timeout
[15:57] <ochosi> i guess we should really document that one
[15:58] <drc> Yeah, hiding something and then touting it on the webpage is counterproductive :)
[15:59] <drc> Thanks
[16:01] <ochosi> drc: oh well, either you overlooked it or i just added it a few seconds ago: http://docs.xfce.org/apps/parole/preferences#hidden_settings
[16:02] <drc> Must be these old eyes....
[16:25] <xubuntu35w> ochosi: (drc here).  This "hidden" setting is one that must be manually added correct? I don't see it listed (but I am using today's daily on a USB).
[16:25] <ochosi> yes
[16:25] <ochosi> you have to create the key (integer)
[16:29] <xubuntu35w> ochosi: Property = hide-controls-timeout,  Type=Int, Value = 3   Will not let me add this (Live USB related?)
[16:30] <xubuntu35w> ochosi: wait, I think I see my mistake.
[16:31] <xubuntu35w> nope...I was wronog about being wrong :)
[17:57] <ochosi> drc: so wait, you got me confused there, it worked fine..?
[17:59] <drc> Sorry about that :)
[18:00] <ochosi> as long as everything is fine and works as expected, it's fine ;)
[18:00] <drc> Yes, I figured it out...not intuitive (you have to place a "/" at the start of the property).
[18:01] <drc> Figured it out from looking at the others there.  Never did figure out how to make an "empty" one (like audio/volume)
[18:02] <drc> But who really cares, it works fine :)
[18:03] <drc> Now...to figure out how to make the menu not come back after hiding it and then max'ing the window and back :)
[18:03] <ochosi> the menu of parole you mean?
[18:04] <drc> yup
[18:04] <ochosi> the hiding of the menubar is not remembered for longer than one session
[18:04] <ochosi> we considered it, and i was considering adding another hidden option for it
[18:04] <ochosi> we didn't want users to be stranded without menubar if they screw up once
[18:05] <drc> Even one session would be nice, but my experience is that hiding the menu, maxing (F11) the screen and then back to "normal" size makes the menu come back.
[18:06] <drc> But I do understand the caution
[18:06] <ochosi> hm, never noticed, lemme try that
[18:07] <ochosi> true, that's a bit of a bummer
[18:07] <ochosi> i guess i could really add a persistent hidden option
[18:07] <drc> yup :)  That and the timeout were the only things keeping me from not installing smplayer/vlc (don't really need all the abilities of them)
[18:08] <drc> BTW, Parole has gotten much, much better recently :)
[18:09] <ochosi> thanks, that's nice to hear
[18:09] <ochosi> we still have a few things i'd like to improve
[18:09] <ochosi> the plugin installer sucks
[18:10] <drc> There's always room for improvement...but just adding things is not always improvement.
[18:10] <ochosi> yeah, but the plugin installer is already there
[18:11] <drc> Oh, that was a general comment typed (bit not returned) before your plugin comment.
[18:11] <ochosi> oh
[18:11] <ochosi> agreed in that case
[18:41] <ochosi> drc: k, so i added that persistent option, wasn't very hard...
[18:43] <drc> It'll come thru the next update?
[18:44] <ochosi> well so far i haven't pushed the code yet
[18:44] <ochosi> i'm not 100% sure what should happen in some cases
[18:45] <ochosi> i guess while i'm at it i should also fix the menubar showing up again after fullscreen
[18:45] <drc> Would be nice :0
[18:49] <drc> It's one of those little annoyances that magnifies itself all out of proportion over time.
[19:00] <ibouvousaime> hello guys I'm trying to use a nvidia card with blender but blender doesnt seem to see it I get his log when I'm trying to see if the gpu is active http://ur1.ca/k4jsr my driver info is http://ur1.ca/k4jto  I already have the nvidia seting manager installed and have libcuda1-346 installed
[19:01] <ibouvousaime> more info http://ur1.ca/k4jxn
[19:04] <ochosi> ibouvousaime: this seems to be a question for the blender folks
[19:04] <ibouvousaime> it think its mora driver problem
[19:04] <ibouvousaime> more*
[19:05] <knome> ibouvousaime, if it's a driver problem and you are using the proprietary driver, then you need to contact nvidia
[19:07] <ibouvousaime> every thing was ok when I had manjaro I wonder what I'm missing
[19:09] <ochosi> probably different driver/driver-version
[19:09] <elfy> try reinstalling from additional drivers
[19:09] <ochosi> drc: http://git.xfce.org/apps/parole/commit/?id=770d977315b2d326dff9a96fd8bb65b9d5093939 (will be released with parole 0.8.1)
[19:11] <drc> Sounds good to me...thanks for the work.
[19:15] <drc> Parole 0.8.1 to be released about Xubuntu 15.10 time frame?
[19:20] <ochosi> i guess
[19:21] <xangua> just use vlc
[19:21] <drc> don't wanna :)
[19:21] <knome> xangua, or... use parole and report bugs so it can be improved.
[19:21] <drc> besides, I'd use smpplayer.
[19:22] <xangua> knome: last time I uses parole couldn't play half DVD's that play OK on VLC and Totem
[19:22] <xangua> only made it until the menu screen, selected play the movie and that's all
[19:23] <knome> xangua, i didn't say complaining helps us improve it.
[19:23] <xangua> wasn't a complain, it was a comentary
[19:24] <xangua> I also like it and it looks cool
[21:08] <gary-ruseman> Is Xubuntu available for ARM?  I don't see a release
[21:08] <gary-ruseman> but I think I saw on /g/ that someone had one
[21:09] <knome> there is no official port.
[21:11] <gary-ruseman> K, that sucks, thanks
[21:15] <knome> gary-ruseman, until you acknowledge how much time it would take to support an official port, i wouldn't say it sucks.
[21:15] <knome> gary-ruseman, you can probably get xubuntuish system installed to an ARM device by installing ubuntu for ARM, then installing the xubuntu-desktop metapackage
[21:19] <elfy> I did a couple of years ago with armfh or  something like that
[21:21] <knome> they are gone.
[21:21] <elfy> always the way ...
[22:20] <CountryfiedLinux> howdy
