[00:07] <holstein> Lopulus: please try the GUI printer tool
[00:07] <holstein> are you using xubuntu 15.04?
[04:23] <xubuntu58w> hello, can someone help me?
[04:23] <holstein> xubuntu58w: only one way to find out.. ask, and a volunteer may assist..
[04:24] <xubuntu58w> Well, this is not particularly xubuntu related, but ubuntu related. On LXLE, I installed LXDM. Rebooted and it worked well, but I didn't like it, so I removed it (sudo apt-get remove lxdm). Now the computer is stuck on a booting screen for 10+ minutes
[04:26] <holstein> xubuntu58w: lxle should have a support channel.. since its not ubuntu, its not supported here..
[04:27] <holstein> you can try the recovery kernel, and get to a terminal, and see what you can do.. sudo apt-get update is a good start
[04:27] <holstein> address those errors.. then, see that the file system, hard drive, and ram.. etc.. are as they should be..
[04:28] <xubuntu58w> well, I can't even boot into the desktop, it's stuck on startup
[04:28] <xubuntu58w> could I do that from a live boot?
[04:28] <holstein> xubuntu58w: the recovery kernel is *before* the desktop, friend
[04:29] <holstein> a  "live boot" would let you do some of those things.. test the memory, and the hard drive, and address file system errors..
[04:29] <xubuntu58w> could I somehow do a sudo apt-get update from the liveusb?
[04:30] <holstein> xubuntu58w: sure.. its *all* open, so, you can pretty much "somehow" do whatever you like. but, its not trivial to chroot in like that, and its not a "fix" for that issue, so, i dont suggest wasting time on that
[04:31] <holstein> xubuntu58w: i say, plan for when that hard drive completely fails, as it will some day, and back up your data, first.. then, you can try lxle support, or try xubuntu
[05:08] <xubuntu526> anyone there
[05:09] <xubuntu526> need a little help
[05:09] <holstein> just ask, maybe a volunteer can assist, xubuntu526
[05:10] <xubuntu526> my os aint booting aways stuck at black screen
[05:10] <xubuntu526> in live cd now
[05:10] <holstein> !fsck
[05:10] <holstein> i would test my hardware, and my file system, and backup my "important" data..
[05:11] <xubuntu526> thanx mate
[05:12] <holstein> if it used to work, and now it doesnt, then what changed? an update? do i have an older kernel in my grub list that i can choose? is grub showing?

[11:43] <xubuntu77w> Hello together, I have a big problem. I am on xubuntu 12.04 LTS. Want to Update my software. but it doesn't work! not even wget works...but i can surf with my browser...
[11:44] <xubuntu77w> command is "aptitude update" but even there, aptitude can't download the new signatures
[11:45] <xubuntu77w> if  I use wget it tells me "Length: not specified" and the downloaded document is always the same size of an html document
[11:45] <cfhowlett> xubuntu77w, change software settings to "LTS release only"

[11:57] <Cargo23> Hello... I went to log into my xubuntu (14.04, just got some updates yesterday) laptop this morning and it wouldn't accept my password.  Not sure what else it could be, I rebooted, now it won't accept the password to decrypt the filesystem.  I have changed term's and verified that the keyboard is producing the correct password.. but either I've lost my mind entirely, or somehow password processing is broken.  Is that a thing?
[11:59] <knome> Cargo23, doesn't sound a known issue
[12:18] <knob> Hello everyone.   I installed Xubuntu (latest) on a laptop, from scratch.  All good... yet I would like to access the "disk partition tool" that Ubuntu has bundled.  I don't know the name of the utility.
[12:19] <knob> I do have it on my other computer, because that one I upgraded from Ubuntu to Xubuntu...
[12:19] <knob> I would like to install that disk utility... any insights as to what its name is?
[12:19] <knob> Or another utility you might suggest as an alternative?
[12:23] <Cargo23> knob, if you can run it on your other computer, you should be able to sort out what its name is there?
[12:26] <knob> Cargo23, yes... thing is, the other computer is physically away...
[12:26] <knob> Yet I am installing now gparted... from the screenshot, I believe that is the one.
[12:26] <knob> =)
[12:26] <knob> btw, good morning! :-)
[12:28] <Cargo23> Good Morning to you, too
[12:31] <Cargo23> So, for some reason it seems my laptop stopped accepting both my user password and the cryptfs passphrase.  As I'm sitting here trying things, I'm noticing that about 1/4 reboots lead to a blank screen.  I wonder if there is a deeper hardware/software thing going on, but if that were true, seems odd that it could function well enough to even prompt for the passphrase.
[12:34] <Cargo23> Question:  Are these related:  "ata5: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)"  AND "Unlocking the disk /dev/disk/by-uuid/...... (sda5_crypt)" ?
[12:35] <Cargo23> ata5 ~= sda5?
[14:03] <designbybeck> Greetings all, does anyone using Xubuntu use multiple languages with it? Like switch between say English and Spanish?
[14:09] <GridCube> havent tried but its possible
[14:11] <designbybeck> GridCube, I was going to try eOS but they seem to have a bug in their latest release with language. I'm trying to setup some computers that will be used for a Spanish speaking only group. I myself don't speak spanish, but some volunteers I have coming do. Was trying to make it easy to switch between languages for them
[14:11] <designbybeck> These are mostly older dell desktops and laptops less than 3gb ram
[14:11] <designbybeck> most with just 1gb ram
[14:11] <designbybeck> I had problems booting any Linux on a few of them
[14:19] <GridCube> designbybeck: i dont see why it should not work
[14:19] <GridCube> but again i just use it in spanish
[14:31] <designbybeck> GridCube, do you use Xubuntu 14.04? or up to 15.05?
[14:31] <designbybeck> err 4
[14:36] <GridCube> right now im on 15.04
[14:36] <GridCube> home im on both 14.04 and 15.04
[14:40] <holstein> if its older hardware, for other folks, i'll try the LTS, release..
[14:41] <designbybeck> thanks holstein, I'm going to try Xubuntu 14.04 32bit on these and see how they handle it
[14:49] <holstein> i'll find, if i have a pile of hardware i dont know much about, in many cases, the hardware can be broken
[15:11] <MarkUX> hi

[15:22] <holstein> MarkUX: login screen? or lock screen, friend?
[15:22] <MarkUX> different ?
