| Jesuwope | It is really stumping me | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| Jesuwope | I even tried putting the slider to 50 minutes, and still it does things the same way | 00:01 |
| Jesuwope | I was AFK only about 20-30 minutes just now and it was locked screen when I came back | 00:01 |
| Jesuwope | Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong... or neither one, or what? | 00:01 |
| Jesuwope | Please help. | 00:01 |
| Jesuwope | I can't listen to music with it locking the screen | 00:01 |
| Jesuwope | well it shut off when i set it to one minute, so probably it was working right when i set it to 50 minutes... but the never part of it.. no good | 00:03 |
| Jesuwope | I changed it again. I put 5 hours and something under the "action" part | 00:04 |
| Jesuwope | I'll test it now | 00:04 |
| Jesuwope | oh well | 00:04 |
| Jesuwope | no luck | 00:05 |

| xubuntu61w | hello | 02:37 |
| xubuntu61w | My Home screen does not come out with good resolution | 02:38 |
| Slit | Hi! Could some one help me with changing the name of computer. I have something like user@home and I would like to change the first part... the user. Does some one know how to do that? | 07:07 |
| ochosi | Slit: create a new user | 07:12 |
| ochosi | the name of the computer is "home" in your example | 07:12 |
| koegs | no need to create a new user | 07:13 |
| Slit_ | I got offline.. | 07:13 |
| Slit_ | Create new user and then... | 07:13 |
| koegs | usermod is able to change the name of the current user | 07:14 |
| Slit_ | Ok koegs... how should I do that? | 07:15 |
| Slit | I get offline again... the last thing was changing name using usermod... | 07:18 |
| koegs | Slit: sudo usermod -l newname oldname | 07:21 |
| koegs | Slit: sudo usermod -m -d /home/newname newname | 07:21 |
| koegs | this will rename the user and then also renames its home dir | 07:22 |
| Slit | ok let me tray first | 07:22 |
| Slit | I get user then my name is currently used by process 1053 | 07:26 |
| koegs | you need to do it with a different user while this user is not logged in :( | 07:30 |
| Slit | Ok koegs :-) | 07:33 |
| Slit | next time I have to be careful | 07:33 |
| starkiller | Im need help :P | 09:59 |
| knome | just ask; if somebody knows the reply, they'll likely reply | 09:59 |
| knome | knows the *answer* | 10:00 |
| starkiller | Well my battery was low one day, and the computer turn off, After that everytime i shutdown even with the command line it takes me to the loggin screen. :( | 10:02 |
| starkiller | Yea im gonna come back another time :P | 10:17 |
| quantibiliy | mouse disappears after hibernation of sleep...? | 12:26 |
| knob | Good morning | 12:47 |
| knob | When I boot up my Xubuntu installation, I get "Welcome to emergency mode!"... I load X with systemctl default.... yet this is driving me crazy already. | 12:49 |
| knob | Wondering what I can do to fix it. | 12:49 |
| Lovich | Anyone ever experienced a black screen after waking the computer? | 13:02 |
| knob | Lovich, not me... I mean, sometimes she's black, yet kind of stuck in "blank screensaver". Move the pointer, and off she goes. | 13:04 |
| Lovich | Unfortunately mine requires a restart :x | 13:05 |
| knome | Lovich, which xubuntu version are you running? | 13:08 |
| Lovich | 14.04 LTS | 13:09 |
| Lovich | Trying to decide if I'd be better off with xorg than fglrx for development purposes, and light gaming. | 13:14 |
| Lovich | AMD drivers seem to be the cause of a lot of problems | 13:15 |
| knome | Lovich, if the open drivers work without problems and the performance is fair/good enough for you, i'd use them | 13:17 |
| knome | Lovich, but if you can get a good performance bump up with the closed drivers (and really need it), or they would fix some problem you're having, then i'd use the closed drivers | 13:18 |
| Lovich | Does Nvidia generally have better support for linux? | 13:19 |
| knome | i've had more problems with amd than nvidia on linux, personally | 13:20 |
| knome | and am using nvidia since ages on my desktop | 13:20 |
| knome | the closed drivers are generally pretty good, but i don't know how well the open alternatives really work since i haven't been running nouveau on a daily basis | 13:20 |

| malinus | I have some ancient (raring) xubuntu version. Obviously the raring package are not on the servers anymore. Do I just change "raring" to some more recent version and update&&upgradE? | 19:12 |
| holstein | malinus: not really | 19:15 |
| holstein | !eolupgrade | 19:15 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 19:15 |
| holstein | i mean, you can, but, its not supported, and will likely break something | 19:15 |
| malinus | reading trough the first link, that's exactly what they say I should do. | 19:17 |
| holstein | go for it | 19:17 |
| holstein | have "good" backups, regardless | 19:17 |
| holstein | what do i do? i just backup, and fresh install.. usually takes less than 20 minutes. i find any sort of upgrading takes me about 4+ hours.. | 19:18 |
| malinus | This reminds me why I use rolling releases now :P | 19:18 |
| holstein | yup.. ubuntu is not a rolling release | 19:18 |
| malinus | yeah | 19:18 |
| holstein | one *can* use the LTS versions, which, cleanly upgrade to each other | 19:18 |
| holstein | 12.04, to 14.04, to 16.04.. for example | 19:18 |
| malinus | I wonder how much this upgrade breaks :D | 19:19 |
| malinus | Other than the ppa stuff, which obviously always break. | 19:19 |
| holstein | plan for complete breakage, since, you should have backups | 19:19 |
| Pwnna | how supported is upstart in 15.04? | 19:21 |
| Pwnna | i know you can boot into it with init=upstart or something like that | 19:21 |
| malinus | I would be suprised if any of the non-software related files actually be removed. | 19:21 |
| Pwnna | i have a lot of scripts in /etc/init, etc/pm.d etc | 19:21 |
| Pwnna | porting will take way too long.. | 19:21 |
| malinus | By the way, have ubuntu switched to systemd yet? | 19:22 |
| Pwnna | yes.. | 19:23 |
| Pwnna | in 15.04 | 19:23 |
| malinus | And I assume the new debian will launch with it too? | 19:24 |
| malinus | oh wait, jessie is now stable | 19:25 |
| malinus | World is going too fast | 19:25 |
| holstein | Pwnna: should be as simple as, reading up on it, and implementing it | 19:27 |
| holstein | i might start here.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers and drill down, as needed | 19:28 |
| holstein | you can go upstream to #ubuntu and the relevant mailing lists, since, its not specific to xubuntu or xfce | 19:29 |
| Pwnna | holstein: takes time.. | 20:08 |
| Pwnna | holstein: i have to rewrite those scripts and Q/A them before deploying. | 20:08 |
| holstein | i suppose one doenst *have* to.. but, changing the defaults can take effort, for sure | 20:09 |
| ball | Yay, there's a Xubuntu channel. | 20:53 |
| knome | !ot | ball, we have several channels: | 20:53 |
| ubottu | ball, we have several channels:: #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 20:53 |
| ball | Thanks knome | 20:56 |
| ball | I've just experimentally installed it on a test rig at the office. | 20:57 |
| knome | nice to hear - enjoy :) | 20:59 |
| ball | We used to run it on my daughter's desktop PC. She'll probably be getting that back again soon. | 21:03 |
