[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?

[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
[23:36] <ubottu> xubuntu67w: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode
[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
