[01:44] <DarkSector> My application shortcuts seem to have stopped working
[01:44] <DarkSector> I read somewhere that xfce4-settings-helper is responsible
[01:45] <DarkSector> I can't seem to find it anywhere in the repos
[01:45] <DarkSector> How do I fix that?
[01:48] <xubuntu57w> Earlier today I was trying to install the package ubuntu-touch and it ended up screwing up and I had to restore from my nightly snapshot
[02:08] <DarkSector> This is driving me crazy
[02:09] <DarkSector> How do I get the application shortcuts to work again?
[02:13] <sinewav> DarkSector: Can you be more specific? All shortcuts? The ones in the whisker menu? Launchers?
[02:14] <DarkSector> All application shortcuts
[02:14] <DarkSector> The window manager shortcuts are working just fine
[02:14] <DarkSector> But No application shortcut seems to be working
[02:14] <DarkSector> sinewav, ^
[02:15] <sinewav> These are custom ones you made in the keyboard shortcuts menu?
[02:15] <sinewav> Under settings?
[02:16] <DarkSector> Well even the default ones don't work
[02:16] <DarkSector> I added my own just for whisker menu but the other ones don't work either
[02:16] <DarkSector> Like screen lock etc.
[02:17] <DarkSector> sinewav,  ^
[02:19] <DarkSector> My xfce-perchannel-xml has all the shortcuts
[02:19] <DarkSector> But they just don't seem to be working
[02:19] <DarkSector> I even used xev to make sure the right key was being identified. Everything seems to be working
[02:19] <DarkSector> It's like something is turned off
[02:20] <sinewav> Did this happen after an update? I just installed a security update for XML C++ libraries, I wonder if I'll have the same problem after a restart... :S
[02:20] <DarkSector> I think I did update stuff today
[02:20] <DarkSector> But I didn't pay attention which packages were being updated
[02:20] <sinewav> Unfortunately, I don't think I can help you. I am not familiar with this problem.
[02:21] <DarkSector> Man,I am so disappointed. I finally found a nice stable DE and this shit happens :(
[02:22] <DarkSector> People on xfce are silent as well
[02:23] <sinewav> I'm trying to get in the habit of not updating because yes, xubuntu does break a lot.
[02:23] <DarkSector> I am running xfce 4.10
[02:23] <sinewav> Otherwise it's very stable when you use a LTS release and only update security patches.
[02:24] <DarkSector> I am on xfce4 on top of Ubuntu 14.04
[02:24] <DarkSector> So that's LTS
[02:24] <sinewav> Yeah, that should be solid. Sorry to hear it broke. The good news is, ubuntu fixes stuff in a hurry. I've had something break but get fixed within a couple weeks.
[02:25] <DarkSector> I just can't seem to find this xfce-settings-helper
[02:25] <DarkSector> xfcesettingsd is running
[02:26] <DarkSector>       <property name="&lt;Primary&gt;space" type="string" value="/usr/bin/xfce4-popup-whiskermenu"/>
[02:26] <DarkSector> Damn that's already primary
[02:54] <DarkSector> OH YES
[02:54] <DarkSector> FINALLY
[02:54] <DarkSector> I got the shortcuts running
[03:04] <DarkSector> OH FUCKING SHIT!
[03:04] <DarkSector> NOT AGAIN
[03:05] <DarkSector> So on rebooting
[03:05] <DarkSector> The shortcuts stop workign
[03:05] <DarkSector> kill me.
[03:07] <Unit193> No cursing.
[03:08] <DarkSector> Yeah whatever. I am done with Xfce.
[03:50] <tiftixd> hy
[03:51] <tiftixd> i am user xubuntu :D
[03:51] <cfhowlett> ask your question
[05:53] <xubuntu497> hey everyone, having issues with broadcom wifi.
[08:45] <xubuntu66w> Hi
[08:45] <xubuntu66w> I need some clarification about xubuntu
[08:45] <xubuntu66w> ther's some one ?
[08:47] <xubuntu66w> Hello ?
[08:47] <iyan> hi xubuntu66w
[08:47] <xubuntu66w> Hi
[08:47] <xubuntu66w> i just installed xubuntu 14.04 and i have some question
[08:48] <xubuntu66w> i was using ubuntu 14.04 and my pc keept freezing every 5 minutes and after like 10 minutes of use the pc was as hot as lava
[08:48] <xubuntu66w> so i installed the ubuntu 12.04 but same problem
[08:49] <xubuntu66w> so i tried linux mint 17 and 13 .....and same problem
[08:49] <xubuntu66w> i went on debian
[08:49] <xubuntu66w> and same problem
[08:49] <xubuntu66w> now with xubuntu after 2 hr of use the pc is as cool as when it started
[08:49] <xubuntu66w> and since i installed it the pc never freeze
[08:50] <xubuntu66w> on every other distro the fan was going crazy after 10 minutes but on xubunt is seems thet i don't even have a fan
[08:50] <xubuntu66w> how is this possible ?
[08:51] <moetunes> more than likely a driver update
[08:51] <xubuntu66w> driver update ?
[08:52] <xubuntu66w> i have tried every single distro of ubunt with every desktop lxfce mate ant other shit
[08:52] <xubuntu66w> the pc was hot as lava after 10 minutes
[08:52] <moetunes> yes. or just dumb luck
[08:52] <xubuntu66w> now with xubuntu the pc seems new as 4 years ago
[08:53] <xubuntu66w> i can't explain this to myself
[08:53] <xubuntu66w> i was even thinking of getting a new pc
[08:56] <xubuntu66w> i realy love xubunt should have installed it sooner
[10:29] <balance> hi, what's the command to open the "start menu"? like pressing that blue thing in the taskbar.
[10:30] <knome> balance, the blue thing is the xubuntu logo and the command is xfce4-popup-whiskermenu
[10:30] <balance> knome ah nice! :) thanks
[10:33] <balance> Is it possible to stick applicatiosn to the taskbar?
[10:34] <knome> if you mean the panel by the taskbar, sure.
[10:35] <knome> if you are running a recent release, dry dragging a launcher from the menu
[10:35] <balance> knome, ah I see
[10:36] <balance> knome, nearly perfect. Is it possible to not show individual windows in the panel but rather collect them on the launcher symbol?
[10:37] <knome> you can group applications by changing the window buttons applets settings
[10:37] <knome> right-click the panel, go to panel -> panel preferences, then tab items, select the "window buttons" applet and click on the cog (edit the currently selected item)
[10:39] <balance> knome, thanks
[10:42] <balance> I've installed ubuntu and later on installed xubuntu-desktop - I only worked with linux (ubuntu) console only, so I have not really a clue what's the difference between an ubuntu + xubuntu-desktop vs. xubuntu itself but can I set up multiple monitor according to a tutorial for xubuntu without breaking anything?
[10:43] <idunnoman> Hiya! I'm running Xubuntu 15.04 (downloaded and installed yesterday), and I'd like to use this panel plugin: http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-hardware-monitor-plugin - however, I can't figure out how to install it. There is no "xfce4-hardware-monitor-plugin" package in the default repositories, and installing the xfce4 and xfce4-goodies metapackages hasn't helped (ie. "Add New Items" on a panel doesn't include "H
[10:55] <balance> when I first started firefox the warning "it's a non executable and unsafe location" (I don't know the proper words anymore) prompted - why's that?
[11:04] <knome> balance, it likely references to the launcher
[11:04] <knome> balance, try running 'firefox' from a terminal
[11:05] <knome> balance, and yes, feel free to set up monitors with a tutorial for xubuntu
[11:06] <balance> knome, nice to finally have a decent panel :)
[11:07] <balance> knome if I click the smybol on the desktop the warning comes but via terminal works fine - thanks
[11:08] <balance> marked it as a executable now it doesnt show up anymore
[13:51] <xubuntu913> hey everyone, having problems with my xubuntu. whenever i try to shut down or restart the computer, it won't shut down - it just hangs there and I have to do push the power off button on my computer to shut it down
[13:51] <xubuntu913> i have already tried few versions of GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="reboot=pci quiet splash"
[13:52] <artag> if you do ctrl-alt-f1 is it producing a stream of output ?
[13:53] <artag> it's nearly always moronmanager that hangs on boot/shutdown ime
[13:53] <artag> it got so good, and now it's been broken so long ..
[13:55] <xubuntu913> i found one solution, maybe it will work. i will try resolving it using that. will tell you guys. thanks anyways
[14:40] <xubuntu73w> hi ive got the power manager set to 40 minutes but it shuts off in 10    any ideas
[17:05] <gruntz> Hi. What's wrong with xubuntu and ugly looking tray icons? Like here https://i.imgur.com/YunP4ls.png (second from left) - it's spideroak (qt application)
[17:46] <knome> gruntz, i think you just described it yoursel... "qt application"
[17:46] <knome> on a more serious note, what version is this?
[17:49] <gruntz> knome: 15.04 amd64
[17:52] <gruntz> well... xubuntu/xfce should not break qt tray icons
[17:52] <gruntz> is there any workaround?
[17:54] <gruntz> I've also tried with this environment variables:
[17:55] <gruntz> export QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk
[17:55] <gruntz> XDGCURRENTDESKTOP="XFCE"
[17:55] <gruntz> but it didn't help either
[17:56] <knome> should not break, but xfce is using gtk, so if the tray icons are qt, it's not guaranteed they will work either
[21:04] <Haroldv> Hello
[21:04] <knome> hello
[21:04] <Haroldv> somebody help me ?
[21:05] <knome> ask the question - if somebody knows the answer, they'll most likely reply
[21:06] <Haroldv> I have a problem, i can't enter in session in xubuntu sorry for my english
[21:06] <knome> what's your native language?
[21:13] <Haroldv> spanish
[21:13] <knome> !es | Haroldv
[23:29] <xubuntu67w> Hello!  I'm using 14.04  (I think) and I was wondering how I could go about having the desktop interface thinger disabled on startup, and just being able to run it if I need it
[23:36] <bazhang> !nox | xubuntu67w
[23:38] <xubuntu67w> bazhang: is there a way to get back into the desktop interface from the cli I'll get using that?
[23:38] <xubuntu67w> Or will I need to remove the text option
[23:41] <xubuntu67w> I'll go test and see :3  Thanks for the help
[23:57] <xubuntu00w> Howdy, me again.  I found the config in Grub where I set the 'text' thinger at, but i'm not sure where on the list of options to put it. I tried a couple places, but I'm thinking there's probably somewhere very specific it needs to go
[23:59] <xubuntu00w> Upon further investigation, it would seem I need to set vga= to text
[23:59] <xubuntu00w> I'll try that :3
