[00:00] <parsnip> and i needed quotes because directory has a space in it.
[00:02] <parsnip> very nice, icon was easy to find
[00:02] <parsnip> now i have a shortcut directly to the virtualbox
[04:14] <tetamusha> Hey guys, I'm having trouble setting up sound via HDMI
[04:15] <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:
[04:16] <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?
[04:18] <tetamusha> The sound works through my laptop speakers
[04:18] <tetamusha> But not in my HDMI monitor
[04:19] <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
[04:20] <tetamusha> I didn't select the option to install updates during install, and the HDMI monitor does not show up in pavucontrol
[04:21] <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
[04:22] <tetamusha> alright, gimme a few minutes then
[04:25] <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] <cfhowlett> !es | xubuntu738
[04:26] <xubuntu738> not is espanhou its portuguese
[04:26] <xangua> !pt
[04:26] <xangua> Always failing...always ;-)
[04:26] <cfhowlett> d'oh!
[04:26] <xubuntu738> ok tanks
[04:47] <xubuntu565> I am installing xubuntu in an old PC and a slow internet. at a certain point on the screen inatalação stopped in the following process : xubuntu dhclient : bound to 192.168.42.130 - renewal in 1638 secunds
[04:47] <cfhowlett> xubuntu565, install without the internet connection then reboot
[04:48] <holstein> yeah.. i dont connect when im installing.. i do updates *after* the install
[04:51] <xubuntu565> thanks for the help guys
[04:51] <xubuntu565> :)
[05:06] <tetamusha> Hey, I'm back.
[05:07] <tetamusha> Just updated everything, but I still can't see my HDMI display in pavucontrol or `aplay -l`
[06:20] <DJJeff> if I run to change the theme for root
[06:20] <DJJeff> root@xubuntu:~# xfce4-appearance-settings
[06:21] <DJJeff> click on any theme it wont change
[06:22] <DJJeff> using this seems to work
[06:22] <DJJeff> root@xubuntu:~# gtk-theme-switch2
[06:23] <DJJeff> clicking apply in gtk-theme-switch2 the screen flashs all the apps reset and get an error
[06:24] <DJJeff> its /usr/bin/xfwm4 has crashed
[06:26] <DJJeff> the theme does switch using this method
[06:26] <DJJeff> crashing some open apps in the process
[06:58] <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
[06:59] <DJJeff> I forget the exact name
[07:00] <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
[07:01] <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
[07:02] <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
[07:03] <ornj> ubottu is an amusing name.
[07:03] <ornj> More than some people, ubottu
[07:04] <ornj> I'm sure Watson could give you a run for your money, though
[07:05] <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?
[07:06] <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?
[07:07] <xangua> !dvd
[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)
[07:08] <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
[07:09] <DJJeff> using software center or apt-get install
[07:09] <xangua> sight...
[07:10] <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¿
[07:11] <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.
[07:12] <xangua> ornj: did you run the script after installing libdvdread4¿
[07:12] <DJJeff> ornj: this sounds like a lot of work
[07:13] <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
[07:14] <DJJeff> worked for me
[07:14] <ornj> And, yes, I have run the script.
[07:15] <ornj> Ah - restarted VLC - seems to be working
[07:15] <DJJeff> oh
[07:15] <ornj> Thank you, xangua  <3
[07:15] <DJJeff> good
[07:16] <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
[07:17] <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
[07:18] <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/
[07:19] <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
[07:20] <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
[07:21] <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)
[07:22] <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
[07:23] <cfhowlett> xangua, very much outdated.  also: to my knowledge no one has written a definitive (remove unity) tutorial that doesn't break things.
[07:24] <DJJeff> lol
[07:29] <ornj> Thanks again, xangua.  :)
[07:30] <DJJeff> lol
[07:30] <DJJeff> yes I did not help at all
[07:30] <DJJeff> suggesting vlc and all
[07:31]  * 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
[07:33] <DJJeff> why chrome
[07:33] <DJJeff> why not firefox
[07:34] <xangua> lol
[07:34] <DJJeff> chrome is not even open source
[07:34] <DJJeff> chromuim is
[07:53] <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
[08:07] <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
[08:08] <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
[08:10] <DJJeff> oh wait yes I can
[08:11] <DJJeff> even changing the theme for a normal user using gtk-theme-switch2 causes xfwm4 to crash
[12:51] <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.
[14:59] <oiu> https://i.imgur.com/t6NSFzr.png
[15:00] <oiu> Is anyone else getting this issue with Google Chrome's window icon?
[15:13] <brainwash> oiu: everyone who is using chrome 43
[15:13] <brainwash> should be fixed in 44
[15:13] <oiu> brainwash: I see. Thanks.
[18:02] <DJJeff> oiu, yes I am too
[19:15] <xubuntu32w> ...
[19:16] <xubuntu61w> hello
[19:16] <knome> hello
[19:18] <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
[19:19] <knome> did you run the xubuntu session, not the xfce one?
[19:20] <xubuntu40w> yes
[19:20] <knome> how did you install xubuntu?
[19:20] <xubuntu40w> from dvd, erase full harddrive
[19:21] <knome> so you didn't install ubuntu and then xubuntu on top of it, but just xubuntu?
[19:22] <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
[19:23] <xubuntu40w> with this command: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[19:26] <xubuntu40w> then restart and I got that ugly old looking xubuntu. do not know why I not have the new nice look
[19:27] <xangua> change the theme¿
[19:28] <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
[19:29] <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¿
[19:33] <xubuntu40w> it looks like this:
[19:33] <xubuntu40w> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3xSTr2gkxtqMUVvZkY2N3FYVEE/view?usp=sharing
[19:34] <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
[19:35] <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
[19:36] <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?
[19:37] <xangua> right clic, add whisker menu
[19:37] <brainwash_> you have to remove ~/.config/xfce4 and then relog into the xubuntu session
[19:39] <xubuntu40w> ok, I try that
[19:39] <xubuntu40w> should i remove the whole folder?
[19:40] <xangua> or just add the whisker menu...
[19:40] <brainwash_> yes, renaming it works too
[19:41] <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
[19:42] <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
[19:43] <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
[19:45] <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
[19:46] <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
[19:47] <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
[19:48] <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
[19:50] <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.
[19:52] <xubuntu40w> that was it. now I got the desired look. big thanks for your help
[19:54] <xubuntu60w> that was it. deleting the folder brought me the desired look. big thanks to you guys
[19:55] <knome> xubuntu60w, great to hear; enjoy
[21:28] <xubuntu65w> hello
[21:28] <xubuntu65w> i want to join a french irc chat
[21:28] <xubuntu65w> about xubuntu
[21:29] <xubuntu65w> can you tell me wich irc chat i can connect ?
[21:29] <xubuntu65w> thank you
[21:29] <knome> !fr | xubuntu65w
[21:29] <xubuntu65w> ok, thx
[21:29] <knome> (there is no specific french xubuntu channel, but they should be able to help with xubuntu too)
[21:30] <xubuntu65w> ok.
[23:04] <j_charron> I have a question regarding xscreensaver, a standard package on this distribution.
[23:05] <holstein> yup.. ask, and a volunteer may assist..
[23:05] <bazhang> !info light-locker
[23:06] <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
[23:15] <j_charron> so if I download the source off his website and extract the shizzle
[23:16] <knome> j_charron, then you should ask for support from the author
[23:17] <holstein> they may provide a simple .deb file or offer a PPA already for ubuntu
[23:19] <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
[23:20] <knome> the answer is: depends on the build system the author is using
[23:31] <DJJeff> oiu, Chrome Version 43.0.2357.81 (64-bit)
[23:31] <DJJeff> oiu, the icon is back
[23:56] <j_charron> solution found!
[23:56] <j_charron> apparently it is a readily available package. xscreensaver-screensaver-bsod
