| tetamusha | Hey guys, I'm having trouble setting up sound via HDMI | 04:14 |
| tetamusha | I just installed Xubuntu 15.04 and I have my laptop connected to a display via HDMI. During the live session (while I was installing the OS) sound worked fine, but after installing Xubuntu and rebooting the laptop, sound didn't work anymore in my display. | 04:15 |
| tetamusha | This is the output of aplay -l: | 04:15 |
| tetamusha | **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC3234 Analog [ALC3234 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 | 04:16 |
| holstein | no sound? or, sound from HDMI doesnt work? | 04:16 |
| tetamusha | The sound works through my laptop speakers | 04:18 |
| tetamusha | But not in my HDMI monitor | 04:18 |
| holstein | the difference, as i read, is that you took updates during the install, and an update could be breaking the hdmi audio out | 04:19 |
| holstein | i would install pavucontrol, and check routing manually | 04:19 |
| holstein | make sure soemthing you *know* is playing in the laptop speakers is routed to hdmi | 04:19 |
| tetamusha | I didn't select the option to install updates during install, and the HDMI monitor does not show up in pavucontrol | 04:20 |
| holstein | tetamusha: if you didnt, then i may go the other way with it, and see that you *do* have all updates applied, and reboot | 04:21 |
| tetamusha | alright, gimme a few minutes then | 04:22 |
| xubuntu738 | estou instalando o xubuntu em uma maquina antiga e com uma internet ruim e a instalação parou na seguinte mensagem a cerga de 3 minutos e nao sai dai | 04:25 |

| DJJeff | root@xubuntu:~# xfce4-appearance-settings | 06:20 |

| ornj | can someone help me play DVDs clearly i am an idiot | 06:58 |
| DJJeff | vlc media player? | 06:58 |
| DJJeff | works best | 06:58 |
| DJJeff | or install the restricted extras package | 06:58 |
| DJJeff | I forget the exact name | 06:59 |
| ornj | i have done these things | 07:00 |
| ornj | oh wait maybe I haven't installed vlc | 07:00 |
| DJJeff | lol | 07:00 |
| DJJeff | vlc <3 | 07:00 |
| xangua | !dvd | 07:00 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons.

| ornj | I mean, shouldn't it work on Totem or xine? | 07:01 |
| DJJeff | just install vlc it plays near everything | 07:01 |
| ornj | k | 07:01 |
| DJJeff | and whats more vlc is awesome | 07:01 |
| ornj | Yes, sir | 07:01 |
| ornj | I know it as the Traffic Cone player | 07:02 |
| DJJeff | yes | 07:02 |
| DJJeff | thats the one | 07:02 |
| ornj | I like traffic cones | 07:02 |
| DJJeff | videolan.org | 07:02 |
| ornj | so we're on the right track | 07:02 |
| DJJeff | they even have a channel on freenode /join #videolan | 07:02 |
| ornj | ubottu is an amusing name. | 07:03 |
| ubottu | ornj: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 07:03 |
| ornj | More than some people, ubottu | 07:03 |
| ornj | I'm sure Watson could give you a run for your money, though | 07:04 |
| DJJeff | danger dear Watson | 07:05 |
| DJJeff | trouble is a foot | 07:05 |
| DJJeff | we must move quickly | 07:05 |
| ornj | OK | 07:05 |
| ornj | I did my due diligence | 07:05 |
| ornj | VLC doesn't work, either. | 07:05 |
| DJJeff | installed vlc? | 07:05 |
| DJJeff | wait what? | 07:06 |
| DJJeff | does not open or play your dvd? | 07:06 |
| DJJeff | does not open your install is broken | 07:06 |
| DJJeff | play your dvd check the logs? | 07:06 |
| xangua | !dvd | 07:07 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu's default installation and repositories do not include packages needed to play commercial DVDs for legal reasons. For information on adding them, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | For information on the legalities involved, see the "DVD" section of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 07:07 |
| DJJeff | press CTRL-M to open the log file | 07:07 |
| DJJeff | for vlc | 07:07 |
| ornj | Does not play DVD. | 07:07 |
| DJJeff | also xangua no need to repeat that | 07:07 |
| ornj | Gave me same thing that, now, I remember xine and Totem did (I gave up on this project a couple wks back before coming back to it) | 07:07 |
| ornj | where it would, like, spin up the disk, start to play, then stop; counter would go blank | 07:08 |
| DJJeff | try a seperate dvd ? | 07:08 |
| ornj | and IIRC it would bring up the first frame of the disc for a split second in one of those other players. | 07:08 |
| ornj | Yes; regardless of title. | 07:08 |
| ornj | Which logs? | 07:08 |
| DJJeff | as xangua has reposted you may need to install the restricted extras package | 07:08 |
| DJJeff | using software center or apt-get install | 07:09 |
| xangua | sight... | 07:09 |
| ornj | Also verified regionset, which had been suggested to me before | 07:10 |
| ornj | So merely installing libdvdread4 isn't enough? | 07:10 |
| DJJeff | now if xangua has a ! command to fix my issue | 07:10 |
| xangua | how about both you take some time to read what the bot actually suggest¿ | 07:10 |
| DJJeff | would start singing and dancing | 07:11 |
| xangua | ornj: yes, it's not enought. Did you run the script? | 07:11 |
| DJJeff | but oh no its never a good idea to run apps as root let alone theme them | 07:11 |
| ornj | Thank you, xangua, but if you'd read me, you'd know that the first thing I'd said was that I've already been to the wiki and read it over, several times. | 07:11 |
| xangua | ornj: did you run the script after installing libdvdread4¿ | 07:12 |
| DJJeff | ornj: this sounds like a lot of work | 07:12 |
| DJJeff | ornj: on a fresh clean install of xubuntu 14.04 I could play dvd with vlc | 07:13 |
| ornj | And what if I do not want e.g. Microsoft fonts? | 07:13 |
| xangua | no, you can't | 07:13 |
| DJJeff | worked for me | 07:14 |
| ornj | And, yes, I have run the script. | 07:14 |
| ornj | Ah - restarted VLC - seems to be working | 07:15 |
| DJJeff | oh | 07:15 |
| ornj | Thank you, xangua <3 | 07:15 |
| DJJeff | good | 07:15 |
| DJJeff | any changes you make you need to restart vlc | 07:16 |
| ornj | I should be more awake when I troubleshoot this stuff :7 | 07:16 |
| ornj | Yes | 07:16 |
| DJJeff | its vlc 101 | 07:16 |
| ornj | That was obvious, but hadn't occurred to me. | 07:16 |
| DJJeff | 3:16am for me | 07:16 |
| ornj | That is why I prefaced everything by warning I'm an idiot. | 07:16 |
| DJJeff | I am wide awake | 07:16 |
| ornj | Yeah | 07:16 |
| ornj | well, I was wide awake at 3:16 am last night, too | 07:16 |
| ornj | and then I was woke up at like 9 something | 07:17 |
| DJJeff | with 12 of my terminal windows broken | 07:17 |
| ornj | after being up much later than that | 07:17 |
| ornj | and so I am kind of wrecked. | 07:17 |
| ornj | Sorry to hear that, mate. | 07:17 |
| DJJeff | because I tried to change the theme for the root user | 07:17 |
| DJJeff | root@xubuntu:~# gtk-theme-switch2 | 07:17 |
| ornj | OOOH :7 | 07:17 |
| ornj | It's root's job to be boring | 07:17 |
| DJJeff | hitting apply caused xfwm4 to crash | 07:17 |
| ornj | that's what root is | 07:17 |
| ornj | Bossome | 07:17 |
| ornj | Note to self: Don't do that | 07:18 |
| DJJeff | and 1/2 my windows to break | 07:18 |
| DJJeff | like the title bar still shows | 07:18 |
| DJJeff | but the window content is all white | 07:18 |
| ornj | NICE | 07:18 |
| ornj | Snow Crash | 07:18 |
| DJJeff | ya | 07:18 |
| ornj | .\m/ | 07:18 |
| DJJeff | Xubuntu = xfce but 1/2 my apps are gnome | 07:19 |
| DJJeff | and use gtk2 gtk3 | 07:19 |
| DJJeff | gnome was awesome until they went derp | 07:19 |
| DJJeff | with unity | 07:19 |
| DJJeff | so I removed unity and install xfce | 07:19 |
| DJJeff | been a nightmare ever since | 07:20 |
| cfhowlett | DJJeff, of course. unity is very well integrated in ubuntu. don't like, install xubuntu instead. removing unity = break ubuntu | 07:20 |
| DJJeff | Xubuntu is just ubuntu with Xfce | 07:20 |
| DJJeff | already know this | 07:21 |
| cfhowlett | DJJeff, I KNOW that. but removing unity from ubuntu will break things. | 07:21 |
| ornj | (Good to know, cfh, thanks) | 07:21 |
| DJJeff | even gtk related things? | 07:22 |
| DJJeff | like themes? | 07:22 |
| DJJeff | which was my issue | 07:22 |
| DJJeff | *shrugs* | 07:22 |
| xangua | there were this pureubuntu, purexubuntu, purekubuntu post but they are outdated | 07:22 |
| cfhowlett | xangua, very much outdated. also: to my knowledge no one has written a definitive (remove unity) tutorial that doesn't break things. | 07:23 |
| DJJeff | lol | 07:24 |
| ornj | Thanks again, xangua. :) | 07:29 |
| DJJeff | lol | 07:30 |
| DJJeff | yes I did not help at all | 07:30 |
| DJJeff | suggesting vlc and all | 07:30 |
| * DJJeff gives ornj the finger | 07:31 | |
| xangua | next time you can focus on the problem instead of suggesting your favorite software ;) | 07:31 |
| xangua | internet doesnt' work¿ install google chrome! :P | 07:31 |
| DJJeff | why chrome | 07:33 |
| DJJeff | why not firefox | 07:33 |
| xangua | lol | 07:34 |
| DJJeff | chrome is not even open source | 07:34 |
| DJJeff | chromuim is | 07:34 |
| DJJeff | I just bought a 500GB SSD I have ubuntu + xfce on my 1TB HDD | 07:53 |
| DJJeff | trying to decide how I should install and setup my SSD | 07:53 |
| DJJeff | oh I get it now | 08:07 |
| DJJeff | changing the theme for root | 08:07 |
| DJJeff | caused root xfwm4 to crash | 08:07 |
| DJJeff | which is why the few terminal windows running as root are all messed | 08:07 |
| DJJeff | odd that zenmap and wireshark did not mess up | 08:08 |
| DJJeff | I could not really reproduce this issue in a fresh copy in a VM | 08:08 |
| DJJeff | oh wait yes I can | 08:10 |
| DJJeff | even changing the theme for a normal user using gtk-theme-switch2 causes xfwm4 to crash | 08:11 |
| jarnos | I have problem with light-locker and dm-tool. If I don't enable light-locker, I can not use dm-tool to run guest session safely. If I use light-locker, command "xflock4 && xfce4-session-logout -s" fails sometimes, as the latter command requires authorization sometimes. This is in ubuntu-studio 14.04. | 12:51 |
| oiu | https://i.imgur.com/t6NSFzr.png | 14:59 |
| oiu | Is anyone else getting this issue with Google Chrome's window icon? | 15:00 |
| brainwash | oiu: everyone who is using chrome 43 | 15:13 |
| brainwash | should be fixed in 44 | 15:13 |
| oiu | brainwash: I see. Thanks. | 15:13 |
| DJJeff | oiu, yes I am too | 18:02 |
| xubuntu32w | ... | 19:15 |
| xubuntu61w | hello | 19:16 |
| knome | hello | 19:16 |
| xubuntu40w | i just reinstalled ubuntu 14 and installed then xubuntu but this time it looks strangly old. with that black curvy mouse instead the triangle one. I can not find a solution online why that is | 19:18 |
| knome | did you run the xubuntu session, not the xfce one? | 19:19 |
| xubuntu40w | yes | 19:20 |
| knome | how did you install xubuntu? | 19:20 |
| xubuntu40w | from dvd, erase full harddrive | 19:20 |
| knome | so you didn't install ubuntu and then xubuntu on top of it, but just xubuntu? | 19:21 |
| xubuntu40w | ah sorry, mistake. no. i installed ubuntu 14 fresh and new and installed i(or on top) xubuntu by terminal | 19:22 |
| knome | how? | 19:22 |
| knome | (btw, there is no "ubuntu 14", it's either 14.04 or 14.10) | 19:22 |
| xubuntu40w | .04 | 19:22 |
| xubuntu40w | with this command: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 19:23 |
| xubuntu40w | then restart and I got that ugly old looking xubuntu. do not know why I not have the new nice look | 19:26 |
| xangua | change the theme¿ | 19:27 |
| xubuntu40w | how do i do that? | 19:28 |
| xubuntu40w | .... strange is, that I installed it the same way a half year ago and got a totally different result | 19:28 |
| brainwash_ | please upload a screenshot, so that we know what you are talking about | 19:29 |
| xubuntu40w | with a very unfunctional whiskers menu ... | 19:29 |
| xubuntu40w | alright | 19:29 |
| xangua | open your xfce settings¿ | 19:29 |
| xubuntu40w | it looks like this: | 19:33 |
| xubuntu40w | https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3xSTr2gkxtqMUVvZkY2N3FYVEE/view?usp=sharing | 19:33 |
| xubuntu40w | but should look like this: | 19:34 |
| xubuntu40w | http://distrowatch.com/images/cgfjoewdlbc/xubuntu.png | 19:34 |
| xangua | so make it look like that | 19:34 |
| xubuntu40w | there comes the problem. i do not know how. last time it was already like that | 19:35 |
| knome | xubuntu40w, that looks like you are running the xfce session | 19:35 |
| xubuntu40w | but it is the xubuntu session | 19:36 |
| xubuntu40w | i tired both | 19:36 |
| knome | if you create a new user and run the xubuntu session, what happens? | 19:36 |
| xangua | right clic, add whisker menu | 19:37 |
| brainwash_ | you have to remove ~/.config/xfce4 and then relog into the xubuntu session | 19:37 |
| xubuntu40w | ok, I try that | 19:39 |
| xubuntu40w | should i remove the whole folder? | 19:39 |
| xangua | or just add the whisker menu... | 19:40 |
| brainwash_ | yes, renaming it works too | 19:40 |
| xangua | or play with it and configure it as you like | 19:41 |
| brainwash_ | xangua: no, the wants the default xubuntu panel/desktop/etc setup | 19:41 |
| knome | xangua, that isn't the complete solution | 19:41 |
| brainwash_ | he wants | 19:41 |
| xangua | obviously reseting the config...on a 14.04 install...won't bring the 15.04 settings | 19:41 |
| knome | xangua, nobody said anything about 15.04 settings | 19:42 |
| knome | i'm confused where you picked that one up | 19:42 |
| xangua | come one, he showed us a picture....of the default 15.04 appearence and he just wants to make it look like that | 19:42 |
| xubuntu40w | that images comes close to what I had before. or does only 15.04 looks like that? | 19:43 |
| knome | xubuntu40w, which xubuntu version were you running before? | 19:43 |
| xangua | you can make it look like that, you can make it look like you want | 19:43 |
| xubuntu40w | i ran on ubuntu 14.04 sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop the first time and got the desired appearance. did the same now with a different result | 19:45 |
| knome | xubuntu40w, then do what brainwash_ suggested | 19:45 |
| xangua | :/ | 19:45 |
| knome | or you can do what xangua suggested, but it's a lot more work | 19:45 |
| xangua | oh come one | 19:45 |
| knome | and might not easily give you the results you actually want | 19:46 |
| xubuntu40w | alright, I try that and might, but hopefully not, come back here. | 19:46 |
| xubuntu40w | big thanks already for your help | 19:46 |
| knome | xangua, the default settings are more than just the panel configuration | 19:46 |
| xangua | 14.04 came with a second tiny panel, 15.04 came with whisker menu and just one panel, 10.04 came looking just like gnome did with two wide panels | 19:47 |
| knome | xangua, ...and a lot more configuration | 19:48 |
| xangua | aggg | 19:48 |
| krytarik | xangua: For that matter: http://xubuntu.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/1404_whisker.png | 19:48 |
| vivid-noexec | hi, can 15.04 get noexec set for automounted vfat drives? 12.04 was fine, now my text files are executable when take from a flash. | 19:50 |
| xubuntu40w | that was it. now I got the desired look. big thanks for your help | 19:52 |
| xubuntu60w | that was it. deleting the folder brought me the desired look. big thanks to you guys | 19:54 |
| knome | xubuntu60w, great to hear; enjoy | 19:55 |
| xubuntu65w | hello | 21:28 |

| ubottu | xubuntu65w: Nous sommes desoles mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. | 21:29 |
| xubuntu65w | ok, thx | 21:29 |

| xubuntu65w | ok. | 21:30 |
| j_charron | I have a question regarding xscreensaver, a standard package on this distribution. | 23:04 |
| holstein | yup.. ask, and a volunteer may assist.. | 23:05 |
| bazhang | !info light-locker | 23:05 |
| ubottu | light-locker (source: light-locker): simple screen locker for lightDM display manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.0-0ubuntu2 (vivid), package size 65 kB, installed size 1024 kB | 23:05 |
| bazhang | I'd use that instead j_charron | 23:06 |
| j_charron | Well, I had hoped to use the bsod screensaver. Unfortunately, it's not selectable. It's listed there, and I'm kind of confused as to why I can't actually use it. | 23:06 |
| j_charron | I'll check that one out | 23:06 |
| j_charron | so if I download the source off his website and extract the shizzle | 23:15 |
| knome | j_charron, then you should ask for support from the author | 23:16 |
| holstein | they may provide a simple .deb file or offer a PPA already for ubuntu | 23:17 |
| j_charron | how does someone compile a c file? | 23:19 |
| j_charron | makepkg? | 23:19 |
| j_charron | makefile? | 23:19 |
| j_charron | gah this is all so new | 23:19 |
| knome | sounds like you are taking on a huge task just to get... a new screensaver | 23:19 |
| knome | the answer is: depends on the build system the author is using | 23:20 |
| DJJeff | oiu, Chrome Version 43.0.2357.81 (64-bit) | 23:31 |
| DJJeff | oiu, the icon is back | 23:31 |
| j_charron | solution found! | 23:56 |
| j_charron | apparently it is a readily available package. xscreensaver-screensaver-bsod | 23:56 |
