janji change the diyplay settings using the minimal settings window to the internal only and then disconnect. why is that?11:19
knomethis is fixed in 15.0411:21
janjoh ok than i wait until i change my whole system to the coming LTS release11:23
janjthanks! I really like xubuntu for its nice look and feel ;) the mini iso thing is a cool idea i think!11:24
knomeplease note that you can't update to 16.04 directly from 14.1011:25
knomeyou have to go through 15.04 and 15.1011:26

xubuntu42wI am taking an online class that requires a "quicktime" plug in and the most updated version of JAVA to access required video content for the class.  I am not computer savvy at all.  Normally I would have my roommate help me but he is in the hospital.  I believe I have installed the Ubuntu version of "quicktime", however, the content still does not play with a response indicated that I need to install a plug in.  Please help!  I 19:09
holsteinxubuntu42w: is there no lab at the school? that provides what you need?19:10
holsteinxubuntu42w: you can try simply installing the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" package, which, may allow those sites to support your os..19:11
holsteini would read all of this, and see if it applies19:11
holsteinxubuntu42w: i found that, when folks have this issue, i can typically hack at something for about 6 minutes and make it work.. but, leaving someone who is "not compupter savvy at all" with something that just works, reliably.. that can be tricky19:12

nightwalkerkgSorry for asking, but is there a way to install KDE 5.4 on Xubuntu 14.04 ?22:42
knomenightwalkerkg, you should ask #kubuntu22:42
nightwalkerkgOh, ok.22:42
nightwalkerkgThanks for the info knome.22:43
knomeno problem22:43
xanguaYou can install KDE yes, but why do you want to install something that just got out a week ago?22:43
xanguaNot even a week ago, I'm not sure22:43
nightwalkerkgIt dosen't have to be 5.4, i am ok with 5.322:43
nightwalkerkgOr what is the latest stable.22:44
xanguaThat depends the Ubuntu release you're using22:44
nightwalkerkgIt's Xubuntu 14.04.22:44
knomethe people at #kubuntu really know this stuff better and can advise about caveats etc22:44
nightwalkerkgYeah, asked there. Waiting for a response.22:44
knometechnically, you can install whatever you want wherever you want if you are willing to work for it, but whether it is sensible or not is different22:45
nightwalkerkgI wanted to give xfce a chance, but it's just not my thing. :P22:45
xanguaWhat's wrong with Xfce?22:46
nightwalkerkgBut since i have about 40GB of repo stuff, and i am to lazy to do a backup and install kubuntu, i want to install it here.22:46
knome(that discussion sounds like it would fit better in #xubuntu-offtopic)22:46
nightwalkerkgxangua: Nothing, it's great for what is intended to, i just like to have much more freedom moding and customizing my DE.22:46
nightwalkerkgYeah, sorry, switching to #kubuntu22:47
xanguaProbably KDE wins in that, yes22:47
