[00:18] <xubuntu32w> I have xubuntu 14-04 and how do I up grade to the lastest one
[00:18] <xangua> xubuntu32w: why?
[00:18] <xangua> Why you wanna upgrade to the "latest one"?
[00:19] <xubuntu32w> cuz my computer keeps asking me and then when I put my password in it does nothing
[00:19] <xubuntu32w> i guess I don't have too
[00:21] <xangua> xubuntu32w: what message do you actually get?
[03:42] <xubuntu57w> Hi! I am on Xubuntu 14.04. My Gnumeric is 1.12.9. When I try yo use the "Customize Chart" window in Gnumeric, I get sub-windows in its tabs which are very, very small, making it extremely hard to change parameters for each plot. about 70% of the "Customize Chart" window is entirely unused (gray).
[04:13] <Behi> Hi all, if Chrome freezes your system entirely from time to time, could you please do me a favor and upvote this bug report: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=586926
[04:13] <Behi> I have spent a week or so on this bug report. I have also reported it to freedesktop.org: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94109

[04:13] <Behi> Sorry, krytarik
[10:28] <jorhel> i just installed xubutu trusty tahr on my PC everything was working fine until my password stopped working and to boot I'm mow locked out of the system. How do I reset it short of re installing it and more to the point what happened to my password?
[10:34] <Guest73956> hello #xubuntu
[10:35] <DiamondSword> anyone around please ?
[10:36] <dkessel> !ask | DiamondSword
[10:37] <DiamondSword> oh ok
[10:38] <DiamondSword> I had brightness issue, just installed Xubuntu. I followed this: http://itsfoss.com/fix-brightness-ubuntu-1310/ brightness seems ok now but I cannot change it.
[10:38] <DiamondSword> power options, there is percent level for that on AC or on battery but nothing changes.
[10:38] <DiamondSword> what do I miss?
[10:39] <DiamondSword> also fn keys for brightness not working..
[10:39] <DiamondSword> I have a Asus laptop and using xubuntu 14.04 lts
[11:33] <DiamondSword> I've downloaded open sans .ttf files but don't know how to install them..
[11:34] <DiamondSword> there is a guide here http://www.binarytides.com/gorgeous-looking-fonts-ubuntu-linux/ but /usr/share/fonts/ folder not have others fonts in it, there are folders. where should I paste the fonts I've downloaded to install?
[11:34] <knome> you can create a new subdirectory in the directory you mentioned for open sans
[11:35] <knome> or if you only need the fonts for you user, you can put them in /home/user/.fonts
[11:36] <knome> or even alternatively, if you only install a few fonts, double clicking the font file should open a dialog that enables you to install the font
[11:38] <DiamondSword> knome, double clicking opens window "open with" not the dialog to install the font.
[11:38] <knome> okay. you can use any of the other two methods i told you then
[11:39] <DiamondSword> knome, I'm new to this
[11:40] <DiamondSword> I cannot have the option create file on file manager at /usr/share/fonts
[11:43] <knome> you'll need to use sudo to do that
[11:44] <knome> so if you only need it for your user, put the font in /home/user/.fonts
[11:45] <DiamondSword> knome, I don't have home/user partition but I copied them to a new folder at /usr/share/fonts/opensans and it works.
[11:45] <DiamondSword> thank you!
[11:46] <knome> user being your username
[11:46] <knome> and np
[12:43] <xubuntu96w> why there are no checksums or signatures enclosed with downloads? I want to verify integrity of the image like pretty anything I install
[12:43] <xubuntu96w> I mean on the page where downloads are
[12:45] <knome> captngrumpy, please stop
[12:46] <captngrumpy> knome: sorry!
[12:47] <knome> xubuntu96w, torrents are the preferred method to download - with them, you don't need the checksums because that's done automatically; for the direct mirror downloads, the sums are on the download pages for them
[12:48] <DiamondSword> I installed touchpad-indicator_1.0.4-0extras14.04.1_all.deb via ubuntu software center. I want to remove it but can't find on ubuntu software center. how to remove it?
[12:48] <xubuntu96w> I dl-ded via torrent but I still want to verify it - gpg signature'd be the best
[12:50] <knome> DiamondSword, sudo apt-get remove touchpad-indicator
[12:50] <knome> xubuntu96w, you can get the sums from any of the (http) mirrors
[12:55] <DiamondSword> thank you knome
[17:38] <GeekDude> My sound settings window appears to have gone
[17:38] <GeekDude> Might be related to when I accidentally broke xfce
[17:38] <GeekDude> rather, uninstalled some necessary xubuntu packages
[17:38] <GeekDude> though I thought that was fixed when I ran apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[17:42] <knome> or in other words, you removed something you are uncertain of, and now you want our psychic skills to tell you what it was?
[20:43] <sim642> I came back to my laptop to unlock it but it just froze on the unlock screen and now just shows "This session is locked"
[20:43] <sim642> trying to login from a TTY doesn't work either, it just freezes after getting the password
[21:43] <Guest64296> do you use xfce's task manager or?
[21:43] <Guest64296> maybe gnome system monitor?
[21:44] <Guest64296> I like both, but xfce's application finder not seem to work on task manager.
[21:44] <Guest64296> any ideaa?
[21:44] <Guest64296> *ideas
[21:44] <knome> ideas for what?
[21:45] <Guest64296> why application finder not working on xfce's task manager..
[21:45] <Guest64296> does it work on you, knome ?
[21:45] <knome> i don't use the application finder
[21:47] <xangua> Yes, it does
[21:49] <Guest64296> xangua?
[21:49] <Guest64296> it seems to work, but not find any.
[21:50] <Guest64296> I'm coming from Windows, normally I should start first mysql service and then mysql workbench can connect to the mysql server.
[21:51] <Guest64296> here on xubuntu, I've started mysql workbench and it connected.
[21:51] <xangua> By finder you mean whisker? Because that's what I'm referring
[21:51] <Guest64296> I want to see if mysql service is working ..
[21:51] <Guest64296> xangua, no. task manager's app finder, I mean
[21:52] <Guest64296> xangua, button on top left when you run task manager
[21:52] <Guest64296> so, I can't find mysql there, running processes
[21:52] <Guest64296> I did "show all processes"
[21:56] <Guest64296> g'night
