[05:48] <ToxicRevenge> Hello
[06:27] <mesaboogie01> hi I'm terribly stuck
[06:28] <mesaboogie01> my touchpad is erratic/uncontrollable
[06:28] <mesaboogie01> pls help
[06:31] <mesaboogie01> ...I'll be back soon, just try something
[06:40] <mesaboogie01> ok, I've seemed to have fixed it
[11:29] <knob> Good morning!

[13:14] <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
[13:16] <xubuntu-x4nd> 14.04.3-i386 are the versions I'm trying

[14:32] <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?
[14:34] <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?
[14:36] <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.
[14:37] <cfhowlett> invalidName, did you install the intel 15.04 drivers?
[14:41] <invalidName> cfhowlett: the graphics drivers?
[14:41] <cfhowlett> invalidName, yep.
[14:42] <invalidName> cfhowlett: no I have not
[14:44] <invalidName> cfhowlett: would you suggest I try that first?
[14:45] <cfhowlett> invalidName, seems a sane step
[14:45] <invalidName> cfhowlett: great
[14:52] <invalidName> cfhowlett: installed it but it didn't fix the problem.
[14:52] <cfhowlett> invalidName, reboot
[14:53] <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
[14:54] <invalidName> yep
[14:56] <invalidName_> cfhowlett: it works. Thank you very much.
[14:56] <cfhowlett> invalidName, happy2help!

[16:35] <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?
[16:36] <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)?
[17:00] <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
[17:01] <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".
[17:03] <another_name> knome: thanks for the suggestions.
[17:09] <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
[17:10] <another_name> knome: sure.
[18:00] <jrivera_> hola
[18:35] <Guest64444> i have issue with calibre in xfce desktop.. files are not option using calibre
[18:36] <Guest64444> http://dpaste.com/1M5FRGD
[21:41] <zacwalls> I am having this really weird desktop glitch http://imgur.com/UZVrNi5 what should I do to fix it?
[21:42] <zacwalls> this is a fresh install from a couple of minuets ago
[21:43] <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 :)
[21:47] <zacwalls> holstien same thing
[21:47] <zacwalls> holstein same thing
[21:47] <zacwalls> sorry
[21:48] <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?
[21:49] <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 :)
[21:50] <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..
[21:51] <zacwalls> center of the screen. Cannot afford to fix. Also, its via RGB and it wont display until I have booted into the OS
[21:52] <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..
[21:53] <zacwalls> eek
[21:54] <zacwalls> display tool it is...
[21:55] <zacwalls> holstein http://imgur.com/BYkcVEn
[21:55] <holstein> right.. so, since that one is broken, you can disable it, there
[21:56] <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
[21:59] <zacwalls> holstein http://imgur.com/cUAq2Uw :(
[21:59] <holstein> zacwalls: right.. whats the problem? that looks great
[21:59] <holstein> vga only.. looks clean..
[22:00] <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 :)
[22:01] <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
[22:04] <PhilGEE> hmm
