| Zach__ | Hello? | 03:44 |
| MrPenguin_ | hello | 03:44 |
| Zach__ | Is it possible to install Xubuntu from commandline? | 03:44 |
| Zach__ | Or would I need to do a clean install | 03:44 |
| MrPenguin_ | do you already have an xubuntu version? | 03:45 |
| Zach__ | Yeah | 03:45 |
| Zach__ | I'm running Xubuntu 14.0.2 at the moment | 03:45 |
| MrPenguin_ | you should be able to using a sudo command. I am not positive though | 03:46 |
| Zach__ | Alright, well, I tried sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, but that didn't work.. Any ideas per chance? | 03:47 |
| MrPenguin_ | No, sorry. I am fairly new to linux | 03:48 |
| MrPenguin_ | Don't know too much | 03:48 |
| Zach__ | Haha, I am also, was the reason I came here | 03:49 |
| MrPenguin_ | :) | 03:49 |
| Zach__ | Alright, guess it's off to the Ubuntu forums with me, thanks for the answer :) | 03:49 |
| MrPenguin_ | np, sorry i couldnt help | 03:53 |
| pragomer | how can I change icon spacing in xfce -panel (xubuntu 14.04) (icons of self-made program starters...) | 06:59 |
| === balkamos_ is now known as balkamos | ||
| knome | icon spacing? | 07:00 |
| liquidsnake | you mean in the panel itself? Like putting the icons in a certain order? | 07:00 |
| pragomer | icon spacing.. I made some program starters using drag and drop from menu.. e.g. firefox, terminal, .... I mean the spacing between the programm starters... (in my opinion there should be more space between them to look more nice..) | 07:02 |
| liquidsnake | oic | 07:02 |
| pragomer | I know I can use seperators.. but I want to edit this via e.g. a config file to do it more "general" | 07:02 |
| liquidsnake | ahh | 07:02 |
| liquidsnake | yeah other than that idk either | 07:03 |
| liquidsnake | have you checked the forums yet? | 07:03 |
| pragomer | just used google.. though I ask it here.. perhaps someone just knows the file I have to edit | 07:04 |
| elfy | http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/96117/increase-space-between-icons-in-xfce-notification-area | 07:05 |
| pragomer | thanks elfy.. but I think this is about the "notifications area".. what I mean is the program starters | 07:06 |
| elfy | yea - but I suspect the only way you'll do what you want is the same answer | 07:07 |
| pragomer | mm. the answer there is that it would not be possible to do it via config files.. cant just believe it.. | 07:12 |
| knome | pragomer, feel free to submit code to xfce4-panel to make it possible | 07:12 |
| elfy | well - if no-one is able to point you at it then find out and you can come and tell us :) | 07:12 |
| pragomer | Im just a user, sorry :-( | 07:13 |
| elfy | so are we all ;) | 07:13 |
| pragomer | funny but true answer elfy ;) | 07:13 |
| pragomer | another question: is it possible to use the super key to open whisker menu in xubuntu AND to use the super key for shortcuts (e.g. super+e) at SAME TIME ? | 07:14 |
| elfy | pretty sure not - did that accidentally ... | 07:15 |
| elfy | though you could use the right Super button | 07:15 |
| pragomer | ok.. not a drama.. but I would be cool if it worked (like in every other desktop)... its not for me but for me girlfriend who should switch to linux and who is used to her few shortcuts... | 07:19 |

| xangua | get a backup disk¿ | 17:36 |
| MrPenguin_ | would a usb work well? | 17:39 |
| liquidsnake_ | yeah usb flash drive fine as long as it has enough space | 17:43 |
| MrPenguin_ | :) 32gb is more than enough | 17:44 |
| liquidsnake_ | oh mos def | 17:44 |
| elfy | JeZxLee: what is the issue you have with it? | 17:45 |
| JeZxLee | elfy - Windows 8 install crashes under current VirtualBox for 15.04 | 17:46 |
| elfy | oh right - wouldn't have a clue about whether a win guest worked | 17:47 |
| elfy | vbox works in 15.04 for me for what I need it for | 17:48 |
| liquidsnake_ | windblows 8 has bugs | 17:49 |
| liquidsnake_ | i do not feel that it is very stable | 17:49 |
| liquidsnake_ | it has numerous compatibility isuues | 17:50 |

| JeZxLee | I need Windows 8 | 17:50 |
| liquidsnake_ | or W10 | 17:50 |
| liquidsnake_ | oic | 17:50 |
| liquidsnake_ | well have you checked the forums for a workaround? | 17:51 |
| liquidsnake_ | there may already be a solution | 17:51 |
| === slickyma1ter is now known as slickymaster | ||
| JeZxLee | no workaround yet - I'll keep using old Linux Mint 17.1 KDE 64Bit with VMWare Player 7.1.0 | 17:54 |

| GeekDude | I must've really messed something up, because I can't log in anymore | 17:56 |

| liquidsnake_ | but not as admin? | 17:56 |
| GeekDude | Not as the only user account | 17:56 |
| liquidsnake_ | do you have it set with a password? | 17:57 |
| GeekDude | I can log in over SSH and through a tty | 17:57 |

| GeekDude | The user on this machine is "media" | 17:57 |

| elfy | and any that are apparently owned by root instead of media that shouldn't be? | 17:59 |
| GeekDude | I was trying to get xvfb running the other day and managed to make .Xauthority be owned by root, but I've since chowned it back | 18:00 |
| liquidsnake_ | have you checked the forums for a workaround? | 18:02 |
| GeekDude | They said to make sure that the permissions on .Xauthority and on /tmp were set correctly | 18:02 |
| liquidsnake_ | the only other thing i know of is to backup your data if possible and reinstall OS | 18:02 |
| liquidsnake_ | oic | 18:02 |
| liquidsnake_ | what did you mess with to cause this? | 18:02 |
| GeekDude | drwxrwxrwt 4 root root 4096 Apr 25 13:58 /tmp | 18:02 |
| liquidsnake_ | do you recall | 18:03 |

| elfy | wouldn't be a bad idea - see what that brings | 18:32 |
| krytarik | Nil. :) | 18:33 |
| elfy | GeekDude: on the other hand - you're not running with a standard system - so who knows what's happened | 18:34 |
| GeekDude | I don't suppose you'd like the output of dpkg -l | 18:35 |
| krytarik | GeekDude: So, you only have an "~/.Xauthority", right? Try deleting it and letting it recreate on the next login. | 18:41 |

| GeekDude | I want to put some movies on a hard drive so that they can be read from both linux and windows | 19:30 |
| krytarik | GeekDude: NTFS, rather than FAT32. | 19:30 |
| TimeVirus | ntfs works fine | 19:30 |
| GeekDude | Though I don't really need to, I can just go with standard ext4 if it's significantly better | 19:30 |

| xubuntu071 | I will use xubuntu only in the 10 netbook, what I do is work or home network . | 19:30 |

| liquidsnake_ | so try a diff mirror perhaps or use a torrent instead? | 19:48 |
| a1fa | dont know if anybody cares | 19:48 |
| a1fa | i am using the official link now | 19:48 |
| a1fa | this one was also linked on xubuntu.org | 19:48 |
| a1fa | just giving you guys a heads up | 19:49 |
| liquidsnake_ | torrents always seem to work better imho | 19:49 |
| liquidsnake_ | ok | 19:49 |
| a1fa | hm.. ok this may have been a ubuntu vs xubuntu thing ;) | 19:50 |

| liquidsnake_ | ahh | 19:50 |
| GeekDude | I'm backing up my ~ directory onto an external drive, and I'm gonna wipe and reinstall the main drive | 19:55 |
| liquidsnake_ | oh you finally decided to do that huh | 19:57 |
| liquidsnake_ | thats what I would do too | 19:57 |
| liquidsnake_ | sux but it works | 19:57 |
| GeekDude | I'm still not sure how I want my drives set up though. I have an 80G drive and a 250G drive. I think I might make the 80G one the boot drive and the 250G one the data drive | 19:58 |
| liquidsnake_ | yep thats what I would recommend | 19:59 |
| elfy | 0_0 | 19:59 |
| liquidsnake_ | makes sense | 19:59 |
| elfy | GeekDude: partition how you like - but in the last 8 years never touched more than 12Gb personally | 20:00 |
| liquidsnake_ | i'm still trying to decide whether i like xubuntu better or puppy linux for the kids computer | 20:00 |
| elfy | the only time I have seen someone run out of room - they marked the repo for installation | 20:00 |
| * GeekDude chuckles | 20:00 | |
| GeekDude | > sudo apt-get install * | 20:01 |
| liquidsnake_ | xubuntu seems more user friendly esp for kids. puppy is a little more technical than i thought | 20:01 |
| elfy | if you are installing 15.04 - then you need to install in 9 months all of 80Gb | 20:01 |
| elfy | because in 10 months it's out of support | 20:02 |
| liquidsnake_ | thats why i always get the lts versions | 20:02 |
| GeekDude | 14.04LTS | 20:02 |
| elfy | you might benefit from thinking about symlinks and external data sources and just having a small / | 20:02 |
| elfy | right so - maybe split /home and / and further split some of /home out to other partitions | 20:03 |
| elfy | anyway - the main thing is think a bit more long term | 20:04 |
| GeekDude | Is copying files between different partitions any faster than copying files between different drives? | 20:05 |
| elfy | not that I noticed before I had usb3 and ssd's kicking about | 20:06 |

| talladamb | http://imgur.com/uoC8D0n | 22:11 |
