| xubuntu-x4nd | First time using linux based OS. Having hanging issues during install of lubuntu or xubuntu from either cd or usb. XP is on old system, I would like that gone. Machine is x51 freevents and I've seen other people in other forums having issues with similar design machines but could not see a solution. I'm getting initializing gfx code on lubuntu and even less on xubuntu. Any help or advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks | 13:14 |
| xubuntu-x4nd | 14.04.3-i386 are the versions I'm trying | 13:16 |

| invalidName | Hello, I recently upgraded to 15.04. Now when I connect a second monitor and extend the screen I cannot move any window fully onto the screen. The window will hit a 'wall' well before the halfway point of the second screen. The mouse is freely able to move around the second screen without issue. Any suggestions? | 14:32 |
| holstein | invalidName: i have dealt with that in the past with alternate GPU drivers.. is that the case? is it nvidia or ati hardware that has proprietary drivers available? | 14:34 |
| invalidName | holstein: I am using proprietary drivers (nvidia-331 v 340.76). My computer has nvidia Optimus (has both Intel and Nvidia). Encountering problems while running in intel mode but I haven't tried it with nvidia. | 14:36 |
| cfhowlett | invalidName, did you install the intel 15.04 drivers? | 14:37 |
| invalidName | cfhowlett: the graphics drivers? | 14:41 |
| cfhowlett | invalidName, yep. | 14:41 |
| invalidName | cfhowlett: no I have not | 14:42 |
| invalidName | cfhowlett: would you suggest I try that first? | 14:44 |
| cfhowlett | invalidName, seems a sane step | 14:45 |
| invalidName | cfhowlett: great | 14:45 |
| invalidName | cfhowlett: installed it but it didn't fix the problem. | 14:52 |
| cfhowlett | invalidName, reboot | 14:52 |
| holstein | i have, in the past, used arandr to generate a script, which i will test, and set to autorun at login after a small delay | 14:53 |
| holstein | i have an older nvidia card that can do that, if i try and let it automatically deal with dual head | 14:53 |
| invalidName | okay, i'll be back after reboot | 14:53 |
| holstein | but, if you didnt reboot, you have to do that for driver changes like that | 14:53 |
| invalidName | yep | 14:54 |
| invalidName_ | cfhowlett: it works. Thank you very much. | 14:56 |
| cfhowlett | invalidName, happy2help! | 14:56 |

| another_name | Another question about 15.04, I locked my computer with 2 screens (extended). After leaving it idle I came back to tried to unlock it. However both screens were gray. In order to unlock the computer I unplugged the second screen and the normal lock screen with login prompt showed up. Is there a solution to this? | 16:35 |
| edufmass | Hello, I've installed xubuntu 15.04 and xrdp, I connect from win pc. I run ifconfig in a terminal and I get error (bin or sbin is not in path, i don't remember very well). Is there a way to make a remote conection and work like the physical connection (all permissions, etc)? | 16:36 |
| knome | another_name, some people have reported similar issues and it's not clear why they exist. the next time that happens, simply try clicking with your mouse - some have said that helps (and it helps for me too when i rarely get that) | 17:00 |
| knome | another_name, well i get it at boot, but it's essentially the same situation | 17:00 |
| another_name | knome: okay fair enough. It also seemed it still accepted my keyboard input. So I might have been able to log in "blind". | 17:01 |
| another_name | knome: thanks for the suggestions. | 17:03 |
| knome | another_name, no problem - let's hope we can get this all fixed :) | 17:09 |
| knome | another_name, if you are interested in helping us out, join #xubuntu-devel and hang out - we're talking about the problem now and then and potentially need debugging from different hardware setups | 17:09 |
| another_name | knome: sure. | 17:10 |

| zacwalls | I am having this really weird desktop glitch http://imgur.com/UZVrNi5 what should I do to fix it? | 21:41 |
| zacwalls | this is a fresh install from a couple of minuets ago | 21:42 |
| holstein | i would look for, and apply all updates, and reboot.. after that, i would look into any alternative GPU drivers.. then, i would try something like arandr, and see if i can set the desktop geometry and have any effect on that.. | 21:43 |
| zacwalls | ok thats what I figured. Be back in a few :) | 21:43 |
| zacwalls | holstien same thing | 21:47 |
| zacwalls | holstein same thing | 21:47 |
| zacwalls | sorry | 21:47 |
| holstein | zacwalls: when? after rebooting after opening the terminal and running "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" ? and, are there proprietary drivers avaiable? also, have you tried arandr? or the included display tool? | 21:48 |
| zacwalls | wait i forgot to mention that this laptops display is busted and I have been using a monitor and i just went into the display settings. I will report my solution in a few :) | 21:49 |
| holstein | i would expect to have dual head on, and maybe that is causing the issue.. where, you are actually just seeing a part of the broken display | 21:50 |
| holstein | i would likely disable the internal in the bios.. | 21:50 |
| zacwalls | center of the screen. Cannot afford to fix. Also, its via RGB and it wont display until I have booted into the OS | 21:51 |
| holstein | hey, i do that often.. an external monitor on a broken laptop.. | 21:52 |
| holstein | but, you'll have to sort out the work arounds.. | 21:52 |
| zacwalls | eek | 21:53 |
| zacwalls | display tool it is... | 21:54 |
| zacwalls | holstein http://imgur.com/BYkcVEn | 21:55 |
| holstein | right.. so, since that one is broken, you can disable it, there | 21:55 |
| zacwalls | wat? | 21:56 |
| holstein | zacwalls: since the internal laptop screen is broken, you can use that tool to disable it | 21:56 |
| holstein | and get a "better" looking desktop | 21:56 |
| zacwalls | ah | 21:56 |
| zacwalls | ok | 21:56 |
| zacwalls | holstein http://imgur.com/cUAq2Uw :( | 21:59 |
| holstein | zacwalls: right.. whats the problem? that looks great | 21:59 |
| holstein | vga only.. looks clean.. | 21:59 |
| zacwalls | the date/time is in the corner all weird IMPERFECTION!!!! lol | 22:00 |
| holstein | zacwalls: thats the panel layout, though.. *not* monitor geometry | 22:00 |
| zacwalls | oh so desktop settings :) | 22:00 |
| zacwalls | ok | 22:01 |
| holstein | zacwalls: panel layout, specificall | 22:01 |
| zacwalls | lol | 22:01 |
| holstein | zacwalls: if thats what you are having issues with.. i literally dont see an issue with the desktop there.. | 22:01 |
| zacwalls | ok well let me see what I can do and send you a screenshot | 22:01 |
| PhilGEE | hmm | 22:04 |
