| m0r0n | Hello I want to install Code::Blocks but the software center has the Install button greyed out. Why would that be? | 01:07 |
| === littlebunnyfufu is now known as SonikkuAmerica | ||
| drc | With the default theme (greybird) the button is indeed grey with black lettering...I assume this is not what you mean (I've never seen that button grayed out, it's always been install/remove). | 01:12 |
| drc | Have you tried synaptic as a double check? | 01:13 |

| Stevesy | question regarding bluetooth audio. Device connects, and I can see it in pavucontrol, can set it to output there, and it appears to work, but no sound comes out of the headset. tried both audiosinc and headset service. headset seems to be the only one to connect. | 01:44 |
| Hudsonkem | anyone know if xubuntu goming with new features(not yes or no, but what news) ? | 03:42 |

| holstein | emma: congratulations.. | 04:02 |
| emma | holstein: yeah pretty cool | 04:13 |
| emma | holstein: are you a big supporter of xubuntu? | 04:13 |

| k0ral | Hello | 11:19 |
| k0ral | I'm having troubles shutting down my computer using xfce's log out panel | 11:19 |
| k0ral | when I select "shutdown", it puts my computer to sleep instead | 11:19 |
| k0ral | when I manually execute "systemctl halt", my computer correctly shuts down, so the issue is related to the way xfce's panel handles the shutting down | 11:19 |
| k0ral | could you please assist ? | 11:19 |
| k0ral | also, when executing "xfce4-session-logout --halt", the computer goes to sleep instead of shutting down | 11:28 |
| nomic | bash sudo halt should shut it down | 11:32 |
| nomic | thats sudo halt in the bash shell | 11:33 |
| nomic | yeah - something wrong with the way it recognises shut-down | 11:34 |
| nomic | would say that you have to manually do it (sudo halt) -- until you resolve | 11:34 |
| nomic | this place is transient k0ral http://ubuntuforums.org/ <- create an account with that - leave messages on the forum - things are attended to more than here -- also you open a thread/issue | 11:35 |
| nomic | you can also search within the forum to see if the issue (which may be related to your specific hardware -- probably is), has been encountered before | 11:36 |
| nomic | k0ral | 11:36 |
| k0ral | well, I kinda need a graphical menu, I'm not the only one using that computer, and other people don't know their way around the commandline | 11:39 |
| k0ral | I'll post on the forums | 11:39 |
| bgardner | That's a good move k0ral, I checked the bugtracker for xfce4-session-logout and there's nothing like that documented there so I think nomic is right that it is specific to you or your hardware. | 11:42 |
| knob | Hello everyone! | 11:43 |
| k0ral | that lowers my chances of quickly finding a clean solution :s but thanks for checking | 11:43 |
| k0ral | there: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2283484&p=13308121 | 11:52 |
| knob | Hey guys... my laptop boots into Emergency mode. If I type systemctl default, she boots into the Desktop Environment just fine. Yet if I reboot her, she goes back into Emergency Mode. How can I fix this? | 11:56 |
| knob | Do I have to run a command to check the disk, or something of the sort? | 11:57 |
| nomic | you could set up a panel applet to issue the shutdown command | 11:57 |
| nomic | which would be a script | 11:57 |
| knob | nomic, that's with me? | 11:57 |
| nomic | simply enough - but its a bit of a fudge .. would work though | 11:57 |
| nomic | k0ral | 11:57 |
| knob | ok | 11:57 |
| nomic | sorry | 11:57 |
| knob | np... =) | 11:57 |
| nomic | its going into emergency mode because there has been a problem with your system | 11:58 |
| nomic | ok im not sure | 11:58 |
| knob | nomic, yes... I am not sure if I power-off her with a "hard shutdown" via the power button. Or what. yet... I can't get her out of that loop. | 11:59 |
| k0ral | nomic: yeah, that would be a good enough solution | 12:02 |
| nomic | you've got to have a script which drives command through sudo though = "sudo halt" - feeding the password into the script is possible though .. its unwieldy but, fixes your specific hardware problem | 12:04 |
| nomic | k0ral, | 12:04 |
| bgardner | k0ral, nomic's solution might also require entries in your sudoers to skip the password challenge for 'sudo halt' | 12:05 |
| bgardner | k0ral, If you want to go that route, see 'man visudo' | 12:06 |
| k0ral | I'm familiar with that ;) thank you | 12:06 |
| k0ral | usually, there is a "power" group to authorize users to shutdown the computer | 12:07 |
| k0ral | I noticed it doesn't exist in xubuntu | 12:07 |

| truefurby | hello guys:) I have an annoying problem with putting my pc to sleep.. there are times it doesnt really get put to sleep and just stays hanging.. and I have to forcefully shut it down because the networking woth get back up and using shutdown/sleep again wont do nothing | 16:37 |
| truefurby | anyone experiencing anything like that? | 16:37 |
| truefurby | here's last few lines from syslog from yesterday | 16:37 |
| truefurby | http://pastebin.com/2M1X4SbV | 16:37 |
| truefurby | it's starting to get on my nerves because I always have to restart and reopen stuff | 16:38 |
| holstein | truefurby: yes, i have experienced quite similar issues | 16:40 |
| truefurby | did you find any solution? | 16:40 |
| holstein | some of which, were just related to bad/failing hardware.. others, with hardware that just wasnt supporting the operating system i was trying to use | 16:40 |
| truefurby | I had xubuntu 14.04.. upgraded to 14.10 didnt help.. now fresh install 15.04.. same thing | 16:41 |
| holstein | in a few cases, i was able to troubleshoot and test | 16:41 |
| truefurby | sometimes it works though.. | 16:41 |
| holstein | truefurby: 14.04 is still supported, if that was "just working", i would use it | 16:41 |
| truefurby | it wasnt | 16:41 |
| holstein | sure.. so, it *could* be the hardware failing.. or the switch, etc | 16:41 |
| truefurby | I have this issue since I switched to xubuntu | 16:41 |
| holstein | from what? | 16:41 |
| truefurby | I had ubuntu before | 16:41 |
| holstein | a supported operating system? | 16:41 |
| holstein | xubuntu *is* ubuntu, though, you can try main ubuntu, if you like | 16:41 |
| holstein | the same kernel, and hardware support, etc.. | 16:42 |
| truefurby | yea but I had old version | 16:42 |
| truefurby | 13.. something | 16:42 |
| holstein | cool.. so *thats* the difference.. likely, and you can try, and confirm, main ubuntu 14.x and 15.x will have the same issue. not ubuntu worked, and xubuntu doesnt | 16:42 |
| truefurby | also.. I use 3 monitors and sometimes one just powers off after login | 16:42 |
| holstein | just in an effort to clarify,a nd help you find resolution | 16:42 |
| truefurby | I have to reconfigure display | 16:42 |
| holstein | that is likely related to xfce, but, i would try the arandr GUI. you can create a config file/script there that runs whenever you like | 16:43 |
| truefurby | I use arandr | 16:43 |
| holstein | you can run it after you resume, or at boot/login, or manually | 16:43 |
| truefurby | I have profile | 16:43 |
| truefurby | I reopen it and apply | 16:43 |
| holstein | yup.. so, you can have that "profile"/script run automatically, as needed | 16:44 |
| truefurby | that syslog probably doesnt help anything | 16:44 |
| truefurby | not sure where to go from here | 16:44 |
| holstein | well, you can test main ubuntu, so that you know, and dont have to just trust me that its not xfce/xubuntu related | 16:45 |
| holstein | then, you can actually use the larger upstream #ubuntu channel for support, since, ideally, you can just find someone with the same hardware, and ask how they deal with it | 16:45 |
| holstein | you can look for bug reports relating to that specific hardware.. i would also consider testing with a supported operating system, to make sure my hardware is "ok", so that im not wasting time chasing a hardware problem with a software fix | 16:46 |
| holstein | otherwise, what i typyically do is, input the commands, manually, for sleep, etc, and i troubleshoot the messages | 16:46 |
| truefurby | damn last thing I want is setup and test another os | 16:47 |
| truefurby | it's not easily reproducible | 16:47 |
| holstein | i'll try and do this as much as possible from a live iso with the hard drive removed, since, forcefully rebooting with the power button can/will damage the hard drive | 16:47 |
| truefurby | I've used windows before | 16:47 |
| truefurby | no problems | 16:47 |
| truefurby | I have this setup for 2 and half years | 16:47 |
| holstein | sure. in many cases i will literally just disable the sleep, and work around it | 16:47 |

| Elon_MuSk | Hi, can I dual boot xubuntu 15.04 on windows 7. I already have Ubuntu 12.04 dual boot with windows 7. Do I need to clear the whole drive to install Xubuntu 15.04 on this 2009 laptop? | 16:57 |
| amari | Elon_MuSk: No, just need to install it side by side with windows and ubuntu, or remove ubuntu and just have xubuntu | 16:58 |
| Elon_MuSk | amari, but how do I remove the old ubuntu 12.04 from the dual boot laptop? | 17:00 |
| amari | Elon_MuSk: In the installer, when it gets to the partitioning part, it asks you if you want to remove the Ubuntu partition, just choose that option and that's it | 17:01 |
| amari | It formats the Ubuntu partition and replaces everything with a clean install of Xubuntu | 17:01 |
| Elon_MuSk | amari, I see, so my windows 7 partition will be safe then? | 17:03 |
| amari | if you only format the Ubuntu partition, then yes. Make sure you DON'T select the option to "erase the whole disk" | 17:04 |
| Elon_MuSk | amari, that's great, I will do so, thanks | 17:06 |
| amari | you're welcome :) | 17:06 |

| w30 | I got a SanDisk microSDXC memory card and xubuntu won't mount it. (Unsupported filesystem). Can I nastall something that will add support? | 18:53 |
| w30 | nastall/install | 18:53 |
| holstein | w30: what format is it? | 18:53 |
| w30 | I donno | 18:53 |
| holstein | i might just simply look for the sd card when running this command in the terminal "sudo fdisk -l" or, in the gparted GUI | 18:54 |
| holstein | w30: if its a card you literally just found, maybe its broken.. | 18:54 |
| w30 | It was bought for my note3. It works there. | 18:55 |
| drc | w30: What's a "note3"? | 18:55 |
| w30 | Samsung cellphone | 18:55 |
| holstein | w30: cool.. those can actually do a rather proprietary file format | 18:56 |
| holstein | w30: i wouldnt expect to, unless samsung says you can/should, to just plug it into a computer.. or, you can look, using the command i suggested, and see if it shows up, and states a format | 18:56 |
| w30 | holstein, thanks, I will pull the card from the phone again and see what fdisk or gparted says | 18:58 |
| holstein | if you simply want to access the files, you may be able to use the USB cable to attach the phone, with the card inserted.. or, run an application on the phone that shares it on the network | 18:59 |
| w30 | holstein, its exfat according to fisk and gparted. Do I need to get exfat support? or do I have it? | 19:10 |
| holstein | !exfat | 19:14 |
| drc | Never delt with exfat, but I trust this source in most things (and you can see from the images he's referencing Ubuntu... http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/linux-exfat.html | 19:15 |
| holstein | i have.. and it was kind of odd.. i would try mounting through the phone | 19:15 |
| holstein | !info exfat-utils | 19:15 |
| ubottu | exfat-utils (source: exfat-utils): utilities to create, check, label and dump exFAT filesystem. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.0-2 (vivid), package size 47 kB, installed size 269 kB | 19:15 |
| holstein | !info exfat-fuse | 19:16 |
| ubottu | exfat-fuse (source: fuse-exfat): read and write exFAT driver for FUSE. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.0-2 (vivid), package size 29 kB, installed size 102 kB (Only available for linux-any; kfreebsd-any) | 19:16 |
| w30 | I on't have exfat utilsor fuse. I'll get those. | 19:18 |
| holstein | sure.. and again, consider *not* mounting the card that way.. since, you can likely share it out over the network,, and/or, mount through the phone, and have less issue | 19:19 |
| drc | w30: set the link I sent, he gives the exact commands you need. | 19:20 |
| w30 | holstein, xubuntu an the card are now in love. thanks holstein an drc | 19:20 |
| drc | or what holstein said :) | 19:20 |
| holstein | yup.. lets just hope that the phone is still "in love" with it, when it comes back to it, and you have no data issues.. | 19:21 |
| w30 | ha, a love triangle for memory cards Windows, Samsung Note 3, and xubuntu | 19:24 |
| drc | sounds like a recipe for a crash/divorce | 19:25 |
| w30 | it works in xubuntu and note 3. Goog enough for me. Ha! | 19:28 |
