[06:02] <xubuntu22w> is anyone there?
[06:02] <cfhowlett> xubuntu22w, don't ask that question.  ask your support question.
[06:04] <xubuntu22w> I have 15.04 running on a laptop. For the most part things work well, but I've continually been struggling with a black screen after logging in, unlocking the screen saver or switching users. I was able to fix the problem for a while but now it is back with a vengence. Any suggestions on how to correct this problme?
[06:05] <cfhowlett> xubuntu22w, screensaver?  xubuntu recommends removal of screensaver.
[06:05] <xubuntu22w> When this happens I have to do a hard reboot, Ctrl+Alt+F1 2 3 4 what ever doesn't help
[06:06] <xubuntu22w> there is no screen saver, whatever is there by default
[06:06] <xubuntu22w> when the screen locks it goes black
[06:06] <xubuntu22w> when I hit a key I get a login prompt, after logging in it goes black again, more than 50% of the time
[06:06] <cfhowlett> xubuntu22w, dpgk -l | grep xscreensaver               xscreensaver is known to conflict with lightlocker
[06:08] <xubuntu22w> I assume you ment dpkg, there is no screen saver retruned from that command
[06:09] <xubuntu22w> though in lightlocker settings it has a section that says lock the screen when screensaver is activated, don't know if that is an indicator of part of the problem
[06:15] <cfhowlett> xubuntu22w, I was specifically referencing item #1  http://xubuntu.org/news/5-things-to-do-after-upgrading-from-12-04-to-14-04/
[06:21] <xubuntu22w> This was a fresh install of 15.04 there is no xscreensaver
[06:35] <xubuntu22w> I literally hear crickets...
[06:51] <parlabane> what does one use in xubuntu to format and repartition a hdd... been looking through the menus and can't seem to find anything
[06:51] <cfhowlett> !gparted | parlabane,
[06:51] <parlabane> does anything come preinstallad ?
[06:52] <parlabane> ok thanks cfhowlett
[06:52] <parlabane> gparted doesn't seem to be installed! will have to do that
[06:53] <parlabane> so it doesn't come with like a disks. porgram like the ubuntu does ?
[08:58] <brainwash> xubuntu22w: I suggest that you actually disable/remove light-locker and install xscreensaver instead
[11:00] <xubuntu79d> has anyone here had trouble starting xubuntu after the 15.04 update?
[11:01] <knome> xubuntu79d, why don't you ask about your problem so people can potentially help with that?
[11:02] <xubuntu79d> OK - the only way I can start xubuntu is to hold shift down, then select recovery mode. Then I can select from the menu to resume a normal startup and it works.
[16:09] <xubuntu80w> argh. Xubuntu installer ate my encrypted partition. no warnings were given. :(
[16:10] <xubuntu80w> It feels kind of crappy that an issue for this was opened nearly 6 years ago and yet this is still a problem. :( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-crypto/+bug/420080
[16:11] <xubuntu80w> and also as someone has posted from links in at least one of the few bug reports: this is as easy to check for as looking for "LUKS" as the first few characters of the drive. :( :(
[16:11] <xubuntu80w> I would have expected something like: "This already looks like an encrypted partition, are you sure we want to destroy all of your data?"
[16:11] <xubuntu80w> (and it kills the data before hitting next. argh.)
[16:12] <holstein> xubuntu80w: did you have backups?
[16:14] <xubuntu80w> of course not, hahahaha. :( :(
[16:14] <xubuntu80w> so everything is gone. this is just a "woe is me, I know my data is gone"
[16:14] <xubuntu80w> holstein: the next question you'll probably ask is: "will you have backups now that you were burnt?" /me nods
[16:15] <holstein> ouch.. im sorry to hear that.. in the future, i say, just try and keep up with best practices on that kind of thing, as much as possible..
[16:15] <xubuntu80w> I do for all servers. this was just my desktop. Not really anything that important there. still sucks to lose all my bookmarks and such.
[16:15] <holstein> i just assume, any installer, or partitioner could break things. but, its becuase i had a similar experience with another OS years back..
[16:16] <xubuntu80w> at the point when everything was half broken and I was undergoing the attempt of "wow my system is screwed up from 14.10 -> 15.04, let me reinstall Xubuntu over the previous"
[16:17] <xubuntu80w> I should have done backups at that point
[16:17] <holstein> well, sounds like that happened..
[16:17] <holstein> anyways, sorry to hear you lost data..
[16:17] <xubuntu80w> er, I mean of course earlier. but definitely at that point
[16:18] <xubuntu80w> holstein: do you know how the installer gets baked into xubuntu? it feels like this should at least be fixed so it doesn't happen to me or others in the future. :-/
[16:19] <holstein> xubuntu80w: AFAIK, this will not be specific to xubuntu or xfce..
[16:20] <xubuntu80w> I think Ubuntu uses a slightly different installer
[16:20] <xubuntu80w> but yes, Kubuntu for instance probably also uses (ubiquity?)
[16:54] <xubuntu07d> Hi. I have a simple question. Where do I find the checksum to verify my download? I been searching the website but can't seem to find it.
[16:55] <GridCube> !checksums
[16:55] <GridCube> !checksum
[16:57] <GridCube> also xubuntu07d if you open any of the mirrors you get a lot of files containing all sorts of sums, http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/xubuntu/releases/15.04/release/
[16:58] <xubuntu07d> that's great! thanks!
[21:50] <HaroldV> Hi
[21:51] <knome> hello
[21:52] <HaroldV> where are you from ?
[21:52] <knome> do you have a support question?
[21:53] <HaroldV> yes
[21:53] <HaroldV> do you speak spanish ?
[21:53] <knome> !es | HaroldV
[21:53] <HaroldV> Muchas Gracias :)
[22:17] <a1fa> any remmina users in here?
[23:23] <tgm4883> running 15.04 here on my laptop. Occasionally when I resume from standby, after login I'll get a blank screen (without backlight as well). Pointers on where to start looking at this?
[23:23] <tgm4883> switching to TTY1 works fine
[23:25] <Unit193> Are you using late locking/
[23:28] <tgm4883> late locking?
[23:29] <Unit193> 15.04 uses light-locker, which has a feature called 'late-locking'.  I believe the claim of that is less problems with black screen bugs, but alas I don't know much on this topic.
[23:29] <Unit193> (I don't use light-locker.)
[23:29] <tgm4883> I've not setup anything like that I think, but I'll take a look
[23:57] <xubuntu98w> Hi everyboby :)
