[11:29] <skip-xubuntu> any help on using zotac fx 5200 tv out on xubuntu?
[13:59] <xubuntu995> las actualizaciones de xubuntu me están dando problemas. Es como si el botón izquierdo del ratón no funcionase. Por mucho que apriete el botón del ratón no funciona.

[14:04] <xubuntu995> las actualizaciones de xubuntu me están dando problemas. Es como si el botón izquierdo del ratón no funcionase. Por mucho que apriete el botón del ratón no funciona. Además cuando aprieto el botón derecho del ratón para el menú contextual sale todo en negro y no puedo elegir nada
[14:04] <xubuntu995> perdon
[15:32] <xubuntu46w> hello
[16:30] <onr> when i close my laptop's lid while xubuntu is shutting down, it sleeps
[16:30] <onr> when i open the lid, it continues to shut down
[16:31] <onr> is it xubuntu, xfce, or ubuntu issue?
[17:32] <subscious> Hello. I am trying to play a Video-DVD I tried using mplayer VLC GNOME Mplayer and Parole. I used regionset to configure the region the DVD should have
[17:34] <subscious> Parole gives a GStreamer Backend error notice.
[17:35] <subscious> It mentions encryption as a possible fault.
[17:35] <cfhowlett> subscious, is this a commercial dvd?
[17:39] <subscious> cfhowlett: yes it is. the libdvdread4 shell solved the issue. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs)
[17:40] <subscious> cfhowlett: thank you and good bye
[18:51] <XubuntuUserNew> Hello
[18:52] <XubuntuUserNew> I need information
[18:52] <drc> !ask | XubuntuUserNew
[18:52] <XubuntuUserNew> OK
[18:52] <onr> !politeness | drc
[18:53] <XubuntuUserNew> I speak spanish and I try
[18:53] <drc> I was
[18:53] <drc> !es | XubuntuUserNew
[18:54] <XubuntuUserNew> Ok tanks for you information, I wish to you have good day :)
[18:54] <drc> onr: The factoid is there for a reason.
[19:20] <pjotter> Is it possible to have multiple instances running of xfce4-volumed?
[19:21] <knome> i wonder why you would want to do that
[19:22] <pjotter> hmmm... maybe I don't mean xfce4-volumed but that other one
[19:22] <pjotter> The one you can add to the panel. Not sure what it's name is.
[19:27] <drc> Well, I know you can have 2 indicator plugins (with the Sound menu) on the panel, but I'm not sure what good it would do you.
[19:27] <pjotter> Maybe it's the "Audio mixer plugin" that comes with xfce4-mixer
[19:28] <pjotter> drc: I have two soundcards, hence a need for two volumecontrols
[19:28] <drc> ah
[19:29] <pjotter> But the volumeicon I have install on the panel can only run as one instance, it seems.
[19:29] <pjotter> I need something that I can run multiple instances of, each configured to it's own soundcard.
[19:30] <drc> Beyond my paygrade :)
[19:33] <drc> pjotter: I no one has an answer for you, I'd probably start here  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound  May have some information or links for you.
[19:34] <pjotter> Ok, thanks drc!
[19:34] <drc> It looks like it was last edited this month, so it should be fairly current
[19:35] <drc> It's a place to start anyway.
[19:36] <flocculant> pjotter: 2 cards that you use at the same time?
[19:36] <pjotter> Yes
[19:36] <pjotter> I use one card for playing radio on
[19:36] <pjotter> It outputs the sound to a speakerset that is away from my desktop. The rest of the sound is playing from the monitor speakers.
[19:37] <flocculant> and pavucontrol isn't working for you ? I thought it should
[19:38] <pjotter> Yes, pavu works fine. But sometimes, I need to adjust or mute the sound real fast. Like when I get a call or something. In those cases an icon on the panle would be really ahndy
[19:38] <pjotter> handy
[19:38] <flocculant> aah - I see
[19:39] <drc> ditto^^
[19:41] <flocculant> try adding xfce4-mixer - then set it for one and pavucontrol for other - no idea if it would work though
[19:42] <flocculant> never really thought about 2 lots of sound playing at the same time :)
[19:42] <pjotter> yes thats what i did now. its not an optimal sollution though
[19:42] <pjotter> me neither :)
[19:42] <drc> You could also put a Pulseaudio launcher on the panel...not what you really want, but it would be faster than going thru the menus.
[19:43] <flocculant> I guess what you really need is mute to mute everything
[19:43] <flocculant> anyway - not going to be able to add anything else
[19:43]  * drc likes his laptops multimedia buttons :)
[20:29] <drc> pjotter: Did you come up with a solution?
[20:37] <pjotter> Hi drc. Sorry, had to attent to somthng important here
[20:40] <drc> ah...the wife was talking, huh?  :)
[20:40] <pjotter> Daughter needed to be fed :D
[20:42] <drc> ah, even more important (having had 3 daughters).
[20:42] <drc> Well, I still ahve them, but they can feed themselves now.
[20:42] <pjotter> Ours is around 8 months old now. So, I reckon we
[20:43] <pjotter> 'll be feeding her for quite some years
[21:27] <drc> Until she leaves home for Ranger School.
[21:27] <drc> oh...he's gone :(
[21:28] <knome> and we also have #xubuntu-offtopic for you know, offtopic
[21:28] <drc> mea culpa
[22:53] <mariano> To have a wireless icon on the panel (like in windows) do I have to install a 3rd party software or does xubuntu come with one?
[22:54] <mariano> I can't seem to be able to find it in the add panel.
[22:54] <mrkramps> mariano, if no icon shown check if indicator-plugin is added to your panel
[22:55] <mariano> ok
[22:55] <mariano> ah ok, go it. Thank you. :)
[22:55] <mrkramps> never mind
