[00:01] It is really stumping me [00:01] I even tried putting the slider to 50 minutes, and still it does things the same way [00:01] I was AFK only about 20-30 minutes just now and it was locked screen when I came back [00:01] Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong... or neither one, or what? [00:01] Please help. [00:01] I can't listen to music with it locking the screen [00:03] 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 [00:04] I changed it again. I put 5 hours and something under the "action" part [00:04] I'll test it now [00:04] oh well [00:05] no luck === Kevin is now known as Guest5407 [02:37] hello [02:38] My Home screen does not come out with good resolution [07:07] 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? [07:12] Slit: create a new user [07:12] the name of the computer is "home" in your example [07:13] no need to create a new user [07:13] I got offline.. [07:13] Create new user and then... [07:14] usermod is able to change the name of the current user [07:15] Ok koegs... how should I do that? [07:18] I get offline again... the last thing was changing name using usermod... [07:21] Slit: sudo usermod -l newname oldname [07:21] Slit: sudo usermod -m -d /home/newname newname [07:22] this will rename the user and then also renames its home dir [07:22] ok let me tray first [07:26] I get user then my name is currently used by process 1053 [07:30] you need to do it with a different user while this user is not logged in :( [07:33] Ok koegs :-) [07:33] next time I have to be careful [09:59] Im need help :P [09:59] just ask; if somebody knows the reply, they'll likely reply [10:00] knows the *answer* [10:02] 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. :( [10:17] Yea im gonna come back another time :P [12:26] mouse disappears after hibernation of sleep...? [12:47] Good morning [12:49] 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] Wondering what I can do to fix it. [13:02] Anyone ever experienced a black screen after waking the computer? [13:04] Lovich, not me... I mean, sometimes she's black, yet kind of stuck in "blank screensaver". Move the pointer, and off she goes. [13:05] Unfortunately mine requires a restart :x [13:08] Lovich, which xubuntu version are you running? [13:09] 14.04 LTS [13:14] Trying to decide if I'd be better off with xorg than fglrx for development purposes, and light gaming. [13:15] AMD drivers seem to be the cause of a lot of problems [13:17] Lovich, if the open drivers work without problems and the performance is fair/good enough for you, i'd use them [13:18] 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 [13:19] Does Nvidia generally have better support for linux? [13:20] i've had more problems with amd than nvidia on linux, personally [13:20] and am using nvidia since ages on my desktop [13:20] 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 [17:22] hello all === max12345 is now known as Guest67996 === Guest67996 is now known as max12345 [19:12] 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? [19:15] malinus: not really [19:15] !eolupgrade [19:15] 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] i mean, you can, but, its not supported, and will likely break something [19:17] reading trough the first link, that's exactly what they say I should do. [19:17] go for it [19:17] have "good" backups, regardless [19:18] 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] This reminds me why I use rolling releases now :P [19:18] yup.. ubuntu is not a rolling release [19:18] yeah [19:18] one *can* use the LTS versions, which, cleanly upgrade to each other [19:18] 12.04, to 14.04, to 16.04.. for example [19:19] I wonder how much this upgrade breaks :D [19:19] Other than the ppa stuff, which obviously always break. [19:19] plan for complete breakage, since, you should have backups [19:21] how supported is upstart in 15.04? [19:21] i know you can boot into it with init=upstart or something like that [19:21] I would be suprised if any of the non-software related files actually be removed. [19:21] i have a lot of scripts in /etc/init, etc/pm.d etc [19:21] porting will take way too long.. [19:22] By the way, have ubuntu switched to systemd yet? [19:23] yes.. [19:23] in 15.04 [19:24] And I assume the new debian will launch with it too? [19:25] oh wait, jessie is now stable [19:25] World is going too fast [19:27] Pwnna: should be as simple as, reading up on it, and implementing it [19:28] i might start here.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SystemdForUpstartUsers and drill down, as needed [19:29] you can go upstream to #ubuntu and the relevant mailing lists, since, its not specific to xubuntu or xfce [20:08] holstein: takes time.. [20:08] holstein: i have to rewrite those scripts and Q/A them before deploying. [20:09] i suppose one doenst *have* to.. but, changing the defaults can take effort, for sure [20:53] Yay, there's a Xubuntu channel. [20:53] !ot | ball, we have several channels: [20:53] 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! [20:56] Thanks knome [20:57] I've just experimentally installed it on a test rig at the office. [20:59] nice to hear - enjoy :) [21:03] We used to run it on my daughter's desktop PC. She'll probably be getting that back again soon. === max12345 is now known as Guest79859 === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang === xubuntu is now known as Guest16465 === Guest16465 is now known as nonya
