| xubuntu90w | Are there any bugs reported about the network manager? I have this problem when I try to change the Wi-Fi network that I'm using the whole computer freezes and the only option I have is a hardware reset | 00:58 |
|---|---|---|
| mrkramps | xubuntu90w, sounds familiar too me, but i cannot tell you much more as i do not use it | 01:04 |
| mrkramps | it does not seem to be a general issue but concerned with certain wifi devices | 01:05 |
| xubuntu90w | I have found that the bug is already reported | 01:07 |
| xubuntu90w | Labeled as critic | 01:07 |
| xubuntu90w | Thanks for your reply mrkramps | 01:08 |
| mrkramps | yes, there are multiple reports i've just found which are all critical or high | 01:08 |
| mrkramps | xubuntu90w, you can switch to wicd if NM is currently to buggy | 01:08 |
| knome | please note that since wicd is not installed by default in xubuntu, it's likely that many people can't assist you with using it | 01:09 |
| Unit193 | Not sure I'd switch to wicd if trying to avoid bugs, it's not the most maintained. It might be worth a shot to see if it works better, but nevertheless. There's also connman, which at least is more activly maintained (just not in Ubuntu.) | 01:10 |
| mrkramps | true :\ | 01:11 |
| knome | yeah, and if it's a problem with the wifi drivers, i don't think changing the manager helps | 01:11 |
| Unit193 | mrkramps: Someone did fix it so it'll actually launch in Xenial though! | 01:11 |
| mrkramps | goot to hear | 01:12 |
| xubuntu90w | I didn't know wicd is not receiving maintenance, thanks for the info | 01:15 |
| mrkramps | it is maintained | 01:16 |
| mrkramps | but not as actively as NM or connman | 01:16 |
| xubuntu90w | Ahh, it's OK | 01:17 |
| mrkramps | and on the other hand … it works | 01:17 |
| knome | networkmanager works as well | 01:17 |
| mrkramps | currently it does not for some users ;) | 01:17 |
| knome | i'm sure so doesn't wicd | 01:17 |
| mrkramps | yeah, probably | 01:18 |

| nikolam | what is the alternative to catfish search. | 10:35 |
| nikolam | what do you use, except of find | 10:35 |
| frostie | is there a way to download all the wallpapers that has been in previous versions of xubuntu? | 10:36 |
| cfhowlett | frostie, yes. search packages ubuntu for xubuntu background | 10:37 |
| cfhowlett | backgrounds | 10:37 |
| frostie | found nothing? | 10:38 |
| cfhowlett | might be names wallpapers | 10:38 |
| frostie | when searching xubuntu wallpapers it only find the default wallpapers that comes with xubuntu but not the previous wallpapers | 10:39 |
| nikolam | also searching help.ubuntu.com does not work when one disables google.com javascripts. He treats xubuntu users as robots... | 10:40 |
| cfhowlett | frostie, you can change the distro search parameter | 10:40 |
| cfhowlett | frostie, better just search for "wallpapers" and get ALL the papers! | 10:41 |
| cfhowlett | bottom of the paget frostie http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wallpapers&searchon=names | 10:41 |
| frostie | thanks, but why is the 13.04 and 13.10 series missing? | 10:46 |
| nikolam | What seardh tool both for indexing and GUi do you use? I have an user complaining that search function in Xubuntu show only apps and not documents | 10:46 |
| nikolam | I recommended already present catfish but it could not find program icon by that name when seraching for apps (14.04) | 10:46 |
| nikolam | it now runs catfish but wonder what indexer/gui you use? | 10:47 |
| nikolam | tracker/beagle/recoll? | 10:48 |
| frostie | i mean like this: http://www.webupd8.org/2014/05/download-all-ubuntu-community.html <<< that is for Unity and not xubuntu | 10:50 |
| frostie | i thought the same thing would work with the xubuntu wallpapers | 10:50 |

| Guest34805 | I'm on an old crappy laptop. For some reason running Xubuntu off the live cd worked great, but now that I've installed it to the hard disk, my display is locked at a tiny resolution. Can't seem to find a way to change it. | 11:14 |
| bekks | Guest34805: You need to install the correct graphics driver for your graphics card. | 11:15 |
| Guest34805 | How do I go about doing that? And any guess as to why the live version detected it but the installation doesn't? | 11:16 |
| bekks | Guest34805: Which graohics card do you have? | 11:17 |
| Guest34805 | Not a clue. Something old, crappy, and onboard. | 11:17 |
| bekks | So you need to find it out: sudo lshw -c video | 11:18 |
| Guest34805 | How should I send you the output? | 11:21 |
| bekks | !pastebin | Guest34805 | 11:21 |
| ubottu | Guest34805: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 11:21 |
| Guest34805 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13393245/ | 11:23 |
| bekks | Guest34805: BAsically you are stuck with one of the most horrible graphics adapters ever. | 11:25 |
| Guest34805 | Well, it matches the rest of the laptop. | 11:26 |
| Guest34805 | Not planning on running Fallout 4 on here or something, just want it to browser the web and such. | 11:26 |
| Guest34805 | It was displaying the proper resolution when I ran the OS live, like I said... But not it's not. | 11:27 |
| Guest34805 | now* | 11:27 |
| Guest34805 | So that tells me there is a proper driver/configuration, somewhere. | 11:27 |
| Guest34805 | Also I dunno if this is of any help but engadget lists the gpu model as "SiS Mirage 2 Shared Video Memory" | 11:29 |
| sim642 | Why is there no refresh button in the wifi networks list? | 11:52 |
| jlovesnyc | Need help going from windows 10 to ubuntu | 15:14 |
| cfhowlett | jlovesnyc, details? | 15:15 |
| jlovesnyc | I have iso on usb, how ever I cannot get cpu to boot from usb | 15:16 |
| egggs | how did u make usb ? | 15:18 |
| cfhowlett | !usb | jlovesnyc | 15:19 |
| ubottu | jlovesnyc: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 15:19 |
| jlovesnyc | copied iso file from dvd to usb drive | 15:20 |
| cfhowlett | jlovesnyc, wrong method. read the link. do it right and try again | 15:20 |
| RobertJDohnert | Whats he trying to do | 15:21 |
| jlovesnyc | I have the file on dvd drive, but I'm not seeing a booting option for that drive on boot options | 15:22 |
| cfhowlett | jlovesnyc, did you copy the .iso to the dvd? | 15:25 |
| RobertJDohnert | You have to write it to a USB drive you cant just copy. If you are on Windows use Unetbootin, if you already use Ubuntu or one of its derivative, ie Black Lab Linux, Linux Mint etc use the usb creator | 15:25 |
| jlovesnyc | i burned it onto the disc | 15:25 |
| RobertJDohnert | Thats where you screwed up | 15:26 |
| RobertJDohnert | You have to download the ISO and use Unetbootin or Startup Disk Creator with the ISO | 15:26 |
| egggs | on reboot or start you gotta go into boot options and tell pc to boot from dvd or ub | 15:26 |
| egggs | usb* | 15:27 |
| RobertJDohnert | eggs he burned the ISO to a DVD, just copying it to usb will not make the USB drive bootable | 15:27 |
| egggs | if its burned to a dvd it should boot from dvd , yeah usb wont work until its installed right | 15:28 |
| egggs | but must tell bios either way to boot from other device | 15:29 |
| jlovesnyc | bios not giving me dvd or cd option | 15:29 |
| egggs | in other words skip the usb if u got the dvd burned | 15:30 |
| jlovesnyc | I'm over the usb, but how do I tell windows 10 to boot from dvd | 15:30 |
| egggs | its most likely there , too many bios sometimes its esc , f2 f8 | 15:31 |
| RobertJDohnert | How olds the computer | 15:31 |
| egggs | look up your pc motherboard and see if u can find bios options | 15:31 |
| jlovesnyc | compuer is from 2013 | 15:32 |
| RobertJDohnert | What brand? | 15:32 |
| jlovesnyc | dell inspiron | 15:32 |
| RobertJDohnert | It should be F12 to boot from Removable media | 15:33 |
| RobertJDohnert | Last Dell I had thats what it was | 15:33 |
| jlovesnyc | f2 gives me boot options | 15:34 |
| jlovesnyc | there are ~5 options and neither says dvd/cd | 15:34 |
| RobertJDohnert | What do they say | 15:34 |
| RobertJDohnert | What are the 5 options | 15:34 |
| jlovesnyc | i get, uefi, usb, nic, | 15:34 |
| jlovesnyc | forgot the others | 15:35 |
| RobertJDohnert | You got UEFI enabled? | 15:35 |
| jlovesnyc | def not dvd or cd | 15:35 |
| jlovesnyc | yes | 15:35 |
| cfhowlett | !uefi | jlovesnyc | 15:36 |
| ubottu | jlovesnyc: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. It is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 15:36 |
| egggs | man i love that bot lol | 15:36 |
| RobertJDohnert | I always disable Secureboot | 15:36 |
| jlovesnyc | more links...ahh | 15:37 |
| egggs | hey i got one for you guys, on xubuntu 14.04 i cant get the default web browser to stick to chromioum or slimjet | 15:37 |
| jlovesnyc | thanks for the time linux community | 15:38 |

| Guest27047 | how can I get rid of the title bar in opera? | 17:36 |
| nikolam | bah, xfce4-power-man survives killall -u username | 17:42 |
| nikolam | previously on same machine, I could not shitch user in X sesion after I switched it once. | 17:43 |
| nikolam | 14.04 64bit, updated | 17:43 |
| nikolam | and yes, old sshd also survived killall | 17:44 |
| adam444 | How can I get rid of the title bar in opera? | 17:46 |
| === skribblezatcha is now known as pencilandpaper | ||
| nikolam | How you propose ond if I also install other desktop environments in Xubuntu, to let user decide what/he she likes the most and to be able to get back to previous state where there is only xfce in xubuntu and all set up? | 18:08 |
| nikolam | Using Btrfs snapshot? (apt-btrfs-snapshot?) | 18:09 |
| egggs | what about live cd and see if u like it instead of back ups | 18:11 |
| nikolam | hmm, user is remotely on xubuntu and I think it couldn't make an cd/dvd that easy by himself. Selecting other DE on login is preferrable | 18:12 |
| nikolam | I woudl like to keep xubuntu way of logging things abd to get back to state when only xfce is there | 18:12 |
| nikolam | What free dynamic DNS service you use, anyway, to be able to always acces to remote host by ssh? | 18:13 |
| egggs | aww thats beyond me, everytime i try a different de on my system something conflicts but im not real strong at linux yet | 18:13 |
| nikolam | I am thinking that only way one can make that is to always connect via some VPN to third server and to expose interface for ssh login through that interface | 18:14 |
| nikolam | yeah, I fear of conflicts and that different DEs bring also their services etc | 18:14 |
| nikolam | That's why I am thinking keeping BTRFS snapshot of current state is maybe best solution | 18:15 |
| adam444 | how can I get rid of the title bar in opera? | 18:15 |
| nikolam | e.g. installing apt-btrfs-snapshot for it ot make it automatiaclly, just before starting to mess around | 18:16 |
| nikolam | opera is not part of xubuntu. I haven't ride an opera in a while, because trere are open firefox, seamonkey and chromium | 18:16 |
| nikolam | adam444, try also seamonkey it's old-school but keeps up with newer core parts, while configurable (with less adailable addons then firefox that is) | 18:17 |
| nikolam | opera is as I know re badged chromium.. | 18:17 |
