[01:08] Hi i have a HP pavilion dv2000 I install xubuntu, but i can't connect via wifi === sergio_br22 is now known as sergio_br2 [11:24] Good morning all! =) [11:25] timezones = morning for you but not for all. [11:25] "greetings!" :) is always good [11:28] he... true that [11:28] Yet I'm just pumped in the mornings.... so I always blast in with a hearty GOOD MORNIGN! =) [11:28] Yet it's all good! Sometimes I go for the morning/afternoon/evening lol [11:28] How you doing cfhowlett ? How's it going over there? [11:29] no complaints. [11:29] Good stuff then! I'm starting the day at the office... some paper work. Let see if we don't get any fires today. [12:08] Hey cfhowlett and others, got a n00b question. Years ago, Ubuntu used init. I believe in 8.xx they changed to upstart. [12:09] Is it changing now to systemd? [12:09] I know systemd is coming but don't know anything about "init". ask #ubuntu? [12:10] Ok. Just asking because I am going through some LPIC material (for a Linux Certification). And they're mentioning the move from init to upstart... yet I don't know if systemd follows upstart. The material I have is "dated". [12:11] knob, right. ask the other channel. most of them know WAY more than I do. [12:12] Ok ok. Thanks! =) [12:17] cfhowlett, I found this... which seems to indicate that yes, it was init --> upstart --> systemd http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/5877/what-are-the-pros-cons-of-upstart-and-systemd [12:17] knob, OK. (still exceeds my understanding). [12:18] cfhowlett, cool. Just wanted to share. I am forever a linux/bsd n00b [12:18] =) [12:18] lol [13:00] so, I'm having a strange issue; Macbook Pro retina 13", touchpad worked fine originally, setup touchegg on it to handle multitouch gestures, touchpad still worked; this morning touchpad will let me click, and multitouch gestures work but I can't get it to move the cursor [13:06] odd [13:06] I've tried resetting the X settings for the input [13:07] I'm really getting to my wit's end, over an hour debugging this so far with no end in sight :( [13:07] fortunately external mouse works just fine [13:07] the strangest thing to me is that the multitouch gestures and click work fine [13:08] IceyEC, the strangest thing is that you are expecting macs are supported :) [13:08] heh, it's good hardware and I'd rather have Xubuntu that OSX on it [13:08] :) [13:08] sure [13:09] anyway, traditionally xubuntu hasn't done much for hardware support [13:09] that's also why we don't promise support for this and that [13:09] yeah, the annoying thing is that it _did_ work before [13:09] :( [13:09] you might want to ask #ubuntu and/or other people who run (x)ubuntu on macs [13:09] !mac | IceyEC [13:09] IceyEC: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a Mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages [13:10] ^ those might help, but i don't know if they have a lot of information about the newer systems [13:10] (tbh looks like they don't, and new hardware is new hardware) [13:13] well thanks, I'll keep digging [13:13] i'm wondering if it's actually a mac issue or a touchpad setting somewhere disaling mouse movement from the touchpad [13:13] IceyEC, assuming a new kernel in that update you mentioned, perhaps boot an older kernel?? [13:14] well, when I say it worked before, I installed xubuntu on this laptop on Sunday [13:14] so it's all fairly fresh [13:14] and if that works, you might need to reinitialize a driver or 2 with dkms. I discovered my vbox drivers didn't always autoupdate. [13:14] I _may_ just install clean again but I'd really rather not [13:15] IceyEC, dpkg --get-selections | grep linux-image | nc termbin.com 9999 [13:15] that'll return a url. paste here [13:15] http://termbin.com/y0ke [13:16] IceyEC, see the new kernel? [13:16] 3.19.0-28? [13:16] yep [13:18] so, I'm assuming I should try booting with the 0-25 kernel and see if it works [13:19] so: reboot, choose the older kernel and test [13:20] k, off to try that [13:23] does anyone know how i can change the background image in xfce4-terminal with a command rather then edit->preferences->background? [13:23] man xfce4-terminal does not help me either [13:23] old kernel didn't help [13:24] besides not working with my wifi card ;-) [13:24] medicijnman: you have to change the config-file [13:24] IceyEC, arrrr. sorry. no more ideas. [13:24] alright, thanks [13:25] koegs: here? ${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS}/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc [13:25] that file does not seem to exists. should i create it? [13:25] medicijnman: you have to create it [13:26] it will only be there if you have changed xfce4-terminal settings via preferences [13:26] so, intereating tidbit, in the mouse and touchpad settings page, the option for touchpad is gone [13:26] koegs: ahh i have found the file. but i can't see the var=value for the background image i have set via preferences [13:28] medicijnman: BackgroundImageFile= [13:28] and BackgroundMode [13:29] koegs: just BackgroundMode ? without = value? [13:29] http://paste.ubuntu.com/12521072/ [13:31] I can see the setitngs in the settings editor but not in the regular mouse and touchpad settings [13:32] looks kind of like http://askubuntu.com/questions/661036/xubuntu-14-04-options-missing-from-mouse-and-touchpad-control-panel [13:34] koegs: okay. this is my file http://paste.ubuntu.com/12521087/. [13:34] if i open a terminal it does not seem to have any effect. logout + login does not seem to have any effect either [13:35] koegs: the image does exist [13:39] koegs: i rebooted the machine but still no background image [13:41] medicijnman: same here but it also does not accept a background image via preferences [13:41] seems like a bug [13:42] koegs: so for background via preferences you have "Background image" ? what xubuntu version do you have? [13:43] 14.04.3 and xfce4-terminal 0.6.3 [13:49] koegs: hmmm i have the exact same versions [13:50] koegs: xfconf-query -l does not list xfce4-terminal either. is that also a bug or do i need to invoke another command? [13:51] medicijnman, doesn't show on mine either [13:51] xfce4-terminal does use the config-file, not the xconf-system, i think [13:51] cfhowlett: so apparently to only way to change xfce4-terminal behavior is through the config file? [13:52] koegs: but apparently the preferences override the config file? [13:53] the preferences write/change the config file [13:54] and normally the xfce4-terminal immediately obeys to changes in the config file, even if you did them manually, no restart of the terminal required [13:55] koegs: maybe i am editting the wrong file then [13:55] ~/.config/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc [13:55] koegs: mine is located in /etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu/xfce4/terminal/terminalrc [13:55] nope [13:55] koegs: ahhh [13:55] koegs: that makes sense [13:56] koegs: i already thought something was wrong because root is the owner with 644 permissions [13:58] koegs: thanks. that worked [13:59] xfce4-terminal does not support animated gifs does it? [14:02] medicijnman: no... its a terminal. [14:02] Pici: i mean as background image :p but it should be expected to work with background images anyway [14:02] medicijnman: oh.. heh. I don't know, but I sadly wouldn't expect it. [14:04] Pici: yeah. i was really suprised that xfce4-terminal supports background images in the first place. [14:04] wait, what? [14:04] so a background image IN the terminal?! [14:05] I thought that had always been there. I remember using it as a poor-man's transparent terminal. [14:05] cfhowlett: yeah :D like a desktop background with your command output on top of it [14:06] sweet. looking up my favorite ... image :) === qwebirc513069 is now known as slickymasterWork [17:19] hi guys, im installing xubuntu now, everything is fine [17:19] glad to hear [17:42] Any sigestion for a good video editing software? [17:44] kdenlive? [17:54] xubuntu87i, if is possible another [17:58] i did not use, but i seen suggests of lightworks beta. and i heard kdenlive one of the best [17:59] xubuntu87i, I have a bug with lightworks [17:59] when I start lightworks in Xubuntu 15.04 I only get a black screen [18:00] u can also try Cinelarra [18:00] ohh yes, I tottaly forget Cinelarra [18:00] *Cinelerra [18:00] thanks xubuntu87i [18:33] hello. if I tab on my touchpad upper right corner .. it paste my clipboard. how can I remove this? [19:03] any solutions to xfce power manager not working? (blank screen after 10 minutes even though setup not too, same for laptop lid close putting laptop in sleep) [19:09] * m3n3chm0 nasZ [20:00] hi, in Xubuntu 15.04 how can I move or adjunt in one place the WICD icon on the panel ¿? [20:00] * m3n3chm0 hi [20:01] if it works like any other panel applet, then you can move it like any other panel applet [20:02] evening [20:02] is anyone here using gmusicbrowser? [20:03] how do you get rid of the hideous crunching distortion? [20:03] i'm using gmb but i have no idea what you are talking about [20:03] knome: everything is severely clipped [20:08] knome it doesn't move [20:09] the other icons sure but wicd not :( [20:09] another issue most urgent i need to edit /etc/resolv.conf and add a line [20:09] nameserver 192.168.0.1 [20:09] router IP [20:09] all the times I login [20:10] why ¿? if not internet is not working [20:10] m3n3chm0: 1) Are you talking about WICD icons (i.e., you installed it yourself, it's not installed by default); 2) how are you trying to move it?) [20:10] m3n3chm0, well if you are using wicd, there's not much we can do [20:10] m3n3chm0, if that was working when you used network manager, then you should talk to the wicd developers [20:10] ok [20:10] thanks knome [20:22] Hello! I'd like to know what dock I could use in alternative to cairo. [20:22] I have 1 GB RAM [20:24] Hello! I'd like to know what dock I could use in alternative to cairo. [20:24] I have 1 GB RAM [20:24] 1GB ought to be plenty [20:26] Yes, I think it is, gordonjcp.. [20:27] What dock could you recommend to me? [20:37] Hello, I need some help. [20:37] I've been trying to get this working since last night. [20:37] Basically, I got Xubuntu 15.10 installed, and Compiz/Emerald, and everything works correctly, but when I maximize the windows, it covers the panel OR maximizes behind the panel [20:37] which is at the top of my screen [20:37] how would I fix this? [20:38] whiter, what is your screen resolution? [20:38] Abraham, try wbar, it's pretty light weight [20:39] hmmm, thanks, mrkramps. I will. [20:39] 1680x1050 [20:39] on this external display im using [20:39] on the laptop its 1600x900 [20:40] pretty good resolution XD. Well, open panel preferences and check it to reserve space for the panel. [20:41] whiter, compiz/emerald isn't officially supported on xubuntu, so you should ask for compiz support for help [20:41] jesus [20:41] asking jesus would likely not help in this case, but you can ask jesus as well. [20:42] It's not a compiz issue. [20:42] This was happening before I installed those [20:42] asking you would not help, so please stop [20:42] 15.10 is not released officially, but i haven't heard others having this problem either [20:42] maybe it's something else in your configuration [20:43] ..... [20:43] that was literally the most useless advice you could have given [20:43] you're welcome. [20:45] whiter, anyway, you should likely file a bug so developers can look at the issue and at least try to reproduce it. [20:45] I doubt its a bug though [20:46] Its what you said [20:46] But I already knew that :\ [20:46] whiter, you watched panel preferences already? [20:46] no [20:47] do it :) be sure the option 'Don't reserve space on borders' is unchecked [20:49] it was checked [20:49] I love you [20:51] hahahaha [20:51] thou are welcome. [20:54] Hey, mrkramps, there's no wbar on Ubuntu Software Center... there's plenty of solitude... [20:54] well, there is the wbar-config application... but nothing else. [20:55] sudo apt-get install wbar wbar-config [20:56] oh, thanks
