| DazPetty | hey, if I delete my /proc/ directory, will my computer still boot? | 01:40 |
|---|---|---|
| DazPetty | I'm just wondering because I heard it is full of generated files | 01:41 |
| ryclik | I don't think you'll be able to | 01:45 |
| ryclik | They aren't "files" as you would think of them. They aren't on disk. It just a directory full of pretend files that the kernel creates to give/receive information. | 01:46 |
| ryclik | So theoretically, if you were able to delete any of them, the kernel would recreate them upon the next boot. | 01:47 |
| DazPetty | ah | 01:58 |
| DazPetty | thanks ryclik | 01:58 |
| ryclik | No problem | 01:59 |
| DazPetty | I might just fire up ubuntu in a VM and start destroying it for practice | 02:12 |
| DazPetty | like killing important files and recover them or something | 02:12 |
| ryclik | DazPetty: running rm -rf * is pretty fun in a vm | 02:28 |
| ryclik | as its running try to use the system normally as it disintegrates. The only things left after it's done are the processes which were lucky enough to be loaded into RAM | 02:29 |
| DazPetty | haha cool idea | 02:29 |
| ryclik | create snapshots so you don't need to worry about reinstalling while you're experimenting | 02:30 |
| DazPetty | ahh good idea | 02:30 |
| ryclik | I do this whenever I decide to install a new distro. Just nuke the old one and watch it die lol | 02:31 |
| drc | 03:00 | |

| Davor1 | hi! anybody here? | 19:08 |
| holstein | yes | 19:08 |
| Davor1 | please how i may change "select file" manager or set "sort folders before files" in existing? Thanks | 19:09 |
| mrkramps | what do you mean by "select file manager"? | 19:10 |
| elhe | can you tell me how do I check my ubuntu version via terminal | 19:11 |
| mrkramps | for the other one check Edit → Preferences [Display] in thunar | 19:11 |
| mrkramps | elhe, lsb_release -a | 19:11 |
| elhe | thanks | 19:11 |
| holstein | Davor1: try http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/preferences and search the page for "sort folders" and see if that works for you | 19:11 |
| Davor1 | when i open file from bluefish it open "select file" conversation. In it is mixed files and folders by name. I wist folders in the top and files below | 19:12 |
| Davor1 | *wish | 19:13 |
| holstein | Davor1: the link i gave should explain how to sort folders before files in thunar | 19:13 |
| Davor1 | I use pcmanfm. It is ok. But for "select files" i think it is Nautilus. I may configure nautilus but it have no efect when i have "selest files# manager | 19:15 |
| mrkramps | oO | 19:16 |
| holstein | i would try upstream in #ubuntu or nautilus specific support | 19:16 |
| mrkramps | and maybe #lubuntu for pcmanfm specific issues | 19:18 |
| Davor1 | Ok! Thank You! | 19:19 |
| CountryfiedLinux | howdy | 20:07 |
| CountryfiedLinux | How do I fix screen tearing? | 20:07 |
| mrkramps | CountryfiedLinux, depends on your gfx card and driver used | 20:08 |
| CountryfiedLinux | mrkramps, Intel | 20:08 |
| Unit193 | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics#Tear-free_video | 20:09 |
| CountryfiedLinux | mrkramps, It looks like that folder doesn't exist on my system. | 20:12 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I meant Unit193 sorry mrkramps | 20:12 |
| xubuntu71w | hey there, I'm new to linux. just installed xubuntu 14.04 on old pc. I'm trying to get Skype. I'm installing it, but it just won't start. I looked at many forums, tried different ways, but it just won't start. Terminal says aborted (core dumped). It'd be really glad if someone could help. Thanks | 20:12 |
| holstein | !skype | 20:12 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 20:12 |
| holstein | xubuntu71w: i try different versions.. i'll get the .deb from the site | 20:12 |
| Unit193 | CountryfiedLinux: You can create it. | 20:13 |
| mrkramps | CountryfiedLinux, create folder and file | 20:13 |
| mrkramps | sudo mkdir -p /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d | 20:13 |
| CountryfiedLinux | ok thanks | 20:13 |
| holstein | create the file.. you are likely looking for x11, and not X11 | 20:13 |
| holstein | X11 should be there.. | 20:14 |
| CountryfiedLinux | the wiki says X11 | 20:14 |
| Unit193 | holstein: /etc/X11/ | 20:14 |
| holstein | CountryfiedLinux: it *is* X11.. but, you should have X11.. that "folder" should exist.. | 20:14 |
| mrkramps | had been so forever i guess | 20:14 |
| holstein | im gussing you are searching /etc/x11.. but, no need to guess.. the command mrkramps gave will work.. ^ | 20:15 |
| mrkramps | CountryfiedLinux, btw. what model of intel card you have? | 20:15 |
| CountryfiedLinux | oops | 20:16 |
| CountryfiedLinux | It's xorg.conf that isn't there. I'll create it. | 20:16 |
| mrkramps | CountryfiedLinux, xorg.conf is deprecated | 20:16 |
| CountryfiedLinux | that's what the wiki says to do | 20:16 |
| mrkramps | ist says xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf | 20:17 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I don't have any kind of xorg folder in etc/X11 | 20:18 |
| CountryfiedLinux | but I can create it. | 20:18 |
| mrkramps | CountryfiedLinux, and you still have to create it, see above | 20:18 |
| CountryfiedLinux | ok thank you | 20:22 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I'm trying to open that directory with Pluma and it's popped up saying /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf is a directory. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again. | 20:25 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I know it's a directory because I just made it. | 20:26 |
| mrkramps | 20-intel.conf should be a file, _not_ a directory | 20:27 |
| CountryfiedLinux | oh ok thanks. | 20:28 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I'll try again. | 20:28 |
| CountryfiedLinux | OK do I reboot for changes to take effect or just logout? | 20:31 |
| mrkramps | just logout | 20:32 |
| CountryfiedLinux | ok thanks | 20:32 |
| netstar | I am running Kubuntu 15.04. How can I add the Xubuntu 15.04 repositories to use Xfce with "ubuntu"#? | 21:48 |
| knome | netstar, the repositories are the same. | 21:50 |

| CountryfiedLinux | howdy | 21:54 |
| CountryfiedLinux | I found out how to fix screen tearing with Compton :D | 21:54 |
| CountryfiedLinux | Now how do I upgrade my wallpapers only? | 21:54 |
| mrkramps | netstar, ah … the xfce4 package is still listed with 4.10 | 21:54 |
| netstar | oh i see | 21:54 |
| netstar | so just install that? | 21:55 |

| CountryfiedLinux | Oh I just found it. | 21:55 |
| netstar | okay :) | 21:56 |
| netstar | thanks people | 21:56 |
| gayle | I'm wanting to install xubuntu on a desktop coputer. As I look for an ISO, I see xubuntu-14.04 But what I do not see are any "point-releases" | 22:31 |
| gayle | Does xubuntu not have point-releases? | 22:31 |
| mrkramps | gayle, it has | 22:31 |
| gayle | mrkramps: Do not see them, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes | 22:32 |
| mrkramps | oO 14.04.2 | 22:32 |
| gayle | mrkramps: Ok I see now... | 22:32 |
| gayle | is 14.04.2 the latest? | 22:33 |
| mrkramps | yes | 22:33 |
| gayle | Ok thank you. | 22:33 |
| Unit193 | The hashes are also on the same server as the isos. | 22:33 |
| mrkramps | gayle, but it already has HWE enabled | 22:33 |
