| recon_lap | not sure if anyone is interested but manages to get xubuntu installed, seems I had two issues, motherboard shorting onto the case and conflicts between SATA hdd and ATA DVD drive | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| function9x | yikes, hope the mobo is not damaged after that short | 00:01 |
| recon_lap | well, short was stopping it from turning on | 00:02 |
| recon_lap | the hdd conflict was evil though, it just caused random lockups. | 00:03 |
| rritoch | Hi, I just upgraded to wily werewolf and I'm having a problem starting KDE (Plasma). Half way through the initialization the X server stops functioning. To make a long story short I can't debug the problem because I can't get the X server to stop. How do I shutdown the X server so I can launch everything manually? Before the update I could just 'service sddm stop' to launch manually and debug | 02:08 |
| rritoch | Now SDDM autorestarts, as does X | 02:08 |
| rritoch | For whatever reason, XFCE works, I just can't get the X server to stop so I can launch startkde & X manually. | 02:10 |
| rritoch | Ok, I think I found it, there's a "new" file, /etc/X11/Xsession.options which I needed to comment out the "allow-failsafe" | 02:13 |
| rritoch | Well, that was a complete waste of time. Manually it starts fine, it's just the sddm startup that's broken | 02:16 |

| rritoch | I'm going to try to re-install the intel graphics drivers, since the screen is blacking out it must be a driver issue, I just don't know how the bug only exists when logging in from sddm, and not when starting startkde manually. | 03:45 |
| rritoch | Well, I'm at a complete loss | 03:49 |
| rritoch | Re-installing the video drivers had no effect. As far as I know sddm launches kde by running X and then startkde (per the configurations) yet it doesn't work and blacks out durring the initialization. When I stop sddm and launch X and startkde manually it works. | 03:51 |
| rritoch | Since this "forum" is so responsive I'm just going to report it as a bug. | 03:53 |
| rritoch | Yeah, it must be a bug, dmesg is reporting segfaults | 03:55 |
| rritoch | Well, I narrowed down the problem slightly, kde will only run as root :( | 04:10 |

| melodie | hi | 09:49 |
| melodie | does Xubuntu have several icon themes by default, brought by depends in a mandatory way? such as gnome-icon-theme, adwaita, ubuntu-mono? | 09:49 |
| melodie | this is why I am asking the question: | 09:50 |
| melodie | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0/+bug/1510709 | 09:50 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1510709 in gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) "In Wily libgtk-3-common pulls in adwaita-icon-theme which in return pulls in ubuntu-mono" [Low,Confirmed] | 09:50 |
| function9x | melodie: yes adwaita looks broken | 09:57 |
| melodie | hi function9x | 09:57 |
| melodie | no it's not broken, it's mandatory instead of being compulsory | 09:58 |
| melodie | and it's not about adwaita, it's about libgtk-3-common which all of a sudden in Debian Jessie has adwaita-icon-theme as a mandatory dependency | 09:58 |
| melodie | can you read in the bug report? not just part of it? | 09:59 |
| function9x | melodie: you don't think it's broken? http://imgur.com/ydvLUzG | 10:07 |
| function9x | bbl | 10:07 |
| melodie | I look at your link | 10:07 |
| melodie | function9x I think it should not be a mandatory depend to that libgtk 3 common, for a start | 10:08 |
| melodie | function9x I just saw | 10:28 |
| melodie | could you add a comment on my bug report, and include the direct link to your image? http://i.imgur.com/ydvLUzG.png | 10:29 |
| melodie | this is very interesting | 10:29 |
| melodie | not only bloating the Ubuntu editions (brings in ubuntu-mono which everyone does not need either) | 10:29 |
| melodie | but also useless? that's fun | 10:29 |
| melodie | (not so fun actually) | 10:29 |

| WaynesKaffe | Hello folks! my cpu-indicator (unity indicator) has stop scaling the cpu. It's on powersave mode all time since 2 days ago. | 17:32 |
| WaynesKaffe | Any with similar issues? | 17:32 |
| WaynesKaffe | I can't play games more, its lagging as hell | 17:32 |
| WaynesKaffe | guys?anyone? | 17:48 |
| flocculant | WaynesKaffe: hi | 17:56 |
| flocculant | so - when it stopped working - was that after some updates for something else? | 17:56 |
| flocculant | and do you mean xfce4-cpufreq-plugin ? | 17:57 |
| flocculant | or do you have some unity one installed for some reason? | 17:57 |
| flocculant | WaynesKaffe: I've not been able to find any report of that issue, nor any change recently | 17:58 |
| WaynesKaffe | flocculant: I've used indicator-cpufreq in xubuntu untils now. | 18:01 |
| WaynesKaffe | Its a unity plugin. | 18:01 |
| flocculant | that's got just as little in the way of recent changes | 18:03 |
| flocculant | so - what else happened at about the time it stopped working? | 18:03 |
| WaynesKaffe | I did notice it when I played League of Legends..the game was laggins as hell. | 18:05 |
| WaynesKaffe | I did an update && upgrade before it. | 18:05 |
| flocculant | tried it with an older kernel? | 18:05 |
| flocculant | and if it is the ubuntu thing - might be people in #ubuntu who've heard about issues | 18:06 |
| WaynesKaffe | Is it possible to pick older kernel at start with grub? I have that alternative in my Ubuntu install. | 18:06 |
| flocculant | should be unless you've just got one install, in which case press shift after bios and you should see the menu | 18:09 |
| WaynesKaffe | Thnx m8 =) I will give it a try. | 18:09 |
