[00:23] <skyrid3r> meh
[00:24] <skyrid3r> Anyone experienced with a "line" issue when eg, scrolling down a webpage.
[00:24] <flocculant> skyrid3r: depends which card you have ...
[00:24] <mrkramps> taering?
[00:24] <skyrid3r> nvidia.
[00:24] <skyrid3r> Which card exactly, I'd have to look it up :p
[00:25] <skyrid3r> Tearing? Possibly.. when I scroll down I see a tin line breaking up the page a bit.
[00:25] <mrkramps> which driver in use?
[00:25] <skyrid3r> *checks*
[00:26] <skyrid3r> nvidia binary driver 352.63 / proprietary, tested.
[00:26] <skyrid3r> Same issue on open source though.
[00:26] <flocculant> skyrid3r: inxi -G
[00:27] <skyrid3r> NVIDIA GF104 [GeForce GTX 460]
[00:29] <flocculant> skyrid3r: should be something like 361.28 in additional drivers - in settings
[00:30] <skyrid3r> Not on the additional driver list though.
[00:30] <flocculant> skyrid3r: ok - so what is :)
[00:31] <skyrid3r> Quite a few :p. open source, 352.63, 340.96, 304.131 and 340.96
[00:32] <flocculant> skyrid3r: ok so I am using 340.96 updates with a 200 series card - at the nv site - that driver *should* work for the 400 series
[00:33] <mrkramps> actually not
[00:33] <skyrid3r> ok:?
[00:33] <mrkramps> recommended for 400 series is 346 or later
[00:34] <flocculant> mrkramps: which they don't see
[00:35] <flocculant> might be recommended - but if they only see 352 and 340 - 340 does appear to support the 400 series cards
[00:36] <mrkramps> strange 346 is in the repository
[00:36] <skyrid3r> interesting.. when I attempt to run sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings, it wants to remove libcuda1-352 nvidia-352 nvidia-opencl-icd-352 and install libcuda1-304 nvidia-304 nvidia-current nvidia-opencl-icd-304
[00:37] <flocculant> skyrid3r: try doing it from Additonal Drivers in settings
[00:38] <flocculant> mrkramps: if you look at packages.ubuntu for nvidia 346 it shows as 352 it seems
[00:39] <flocculant> skyrid3r: instead of second guessing - try what Add Drivers shows
[00:39] <mrkramps> exactly
[00:40] <skyrid3r> .. ?
[00:40] <mrkramps> i guess i'll have to check a wiki for accuracy
[00:40] <flocculant> mrkramps: so that's a bit odd - but I have to say - stuff just works here - I don't have to fiddle
[00:40] <flocculant> skyrid3r: sorry - I guess we went off on a tangent there :)
[00:41] <skyrid3r> d/led NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-361.28.run from the website.
[00:41] <flocculant> do Additional Driver - what does that say? maybe revert to nouveau - reboot and look again
[00:41] <flocculant> skyrid3r: yup - thought so - doesn't always work out well :)
[00:42] <skyrid3r> no idea how to open it, lol
[00:42] <flocculant> Settings - Additional Drivers
[00:42] <flocculant> (in xenial at least)
[00:45] <mrkramps> should be there since 12.04 ;)
[00:45] <flocculant> mrkramps: names change :p
[00:46] <mrkramps> well, within the compass
[00:46] <mrkramps> ^^
[00:47] <flocculant> :)
[01:13] <xubuntu02w> Ello again (sky here)
[01:13] <xubuntu02w> http://imgur.com/ICIxARW - image of my problem.
[01:18] <flocculant> different issue that ...
[02:06] <C1t1Z3n> hello
[02:06] <C1t1Z3n> how i register
[02:06] <C1t1Z3n> on freenode
[02:06] <C1t1Z3n> or wich chan to go to get help about that
[02:09] <flocculant> /join #freenode
[02:10] <flocculant> C1t1Z3n: though most info is on the web
[02:10] <C1t1Z3n> yup they helped
[02:10] <C1t1Z3n> it's good thx
[02:33] <arsix> so i'm messing around with using a non-xfwm session in xubuntu but i notice that when i switch to a different wm (spectrwm in this case), fonts look quite a bit worse
[02:33] <arsix> why is that?
[02:35] <C1t1Z3n> i absolutly don't know
[02:36] <flocculant> arsix: xubuntu applies various configs - it's part of what makes Xubuntu Xubuntu
[02:37] <arsix> yeah, i figured it was something like that, some xfce things i'm forgoing when i select spectrwm
[02:37] <flocculant> arsix: if you happen to login to xfce instead of xubuntu I would expect you'd see similar
[02:38] <arsix> oh yeah, i guess i always log in to xubuntu and not xfce
[02:39] <C1t1Z3n> you have 2 option xfce an xubuntu
[02:39] <arsix> C1t1Z3n: well i have three because i have spectrwm installed
[02:39] <arsix> but yeah
[02:41] <C1t1Z3n> i also have 3 i have openbox installed
[02:41] <arsix> does openbox do the same thing for you? fonts don't look as nice?
[02:41] <C1t1Z3n> font look good
[02:41] <C1t1Z3n> it's openbox minimalist at the maximum level
[02:43] <C1t1Z3n> if you need speed you need openbox
[02:43] <arsix> sure
[02:43] <arsix> i was just asking about fonts, though
[02:43] <C1t1Z3n> lol
[02:43] <C1t1Z3n> sry
[02:45] <arsix> oh, one other question
[02:45] <arsix> i'm not sure exactly when this happened but my notifications look a lot worse now
[02:45] <arsix> like it's just plain text that says stuff like "Volume is muted"
[02:45] <C1t1Z3n> i hate the notification
[02:46] <arsix> or "Volume is at 75%"
[02:46] <arsix> any clue how i can reset them to the default xubuntu look?
[02:46] <C1t1Z3n> you lost the eye candy stuff
[02:46] <arsix> yeah
[02:46] <C1t1Z3n> in the theme parameter
[02:46] <arsix> not sure what i did to make that happen
[02:46] <C1t1Z3n> you also have a notification parameter
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> maybe there
[02:47] <arsix> not sure what you're saying
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> cause i have it in french
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> ...
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> i can tell you in french
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> in english i am not sure if it's  system or option...
[02:47] <C1t1Z3n> paramètre
[03:25] <Raku>  I'm having a problem getting xubuntu installed, both the install and liveboot option give this screen http://puu.sh/nwnI0/32b902561c.jpg (errors then kicked in to ash)
[03:26] <flocculant> Raku: building the install medium in Windows?
[03:27] <flocculant> what you using usb/cd? did you torrent the image? or just download it?
[03:27] <Raku> Torrented it, verified the md5
[03:27] <flocculant> usb or cd?
[03:27] <Raku> Used DD to put on SD card
[03:27] <Raku> So usb
[03:28] <flocculant> ok - just to make sure - boot - then when you get the silly kb/human icons - hit any key, then in the menu check the 'whatever the option is'
[03:29] <Raku> Yep
[03:29] <flocculant> if you got busybox then something is wrong there imo
[03:29] <Raku> I tried live CD, install, and check CD for errors
[03:29] <flocculant> yep
[03:29] <Raku> This is the second one SD I put the ISO on, already verified md5
[03:31] <Raku> Do I need to change a grub option or something?
[03:31] <flocculant> Raku: installing to what?
[03:31] <Raku> Like, in the menu of options, there's install xubuntu, try without installing, etc
[03:31] <Raku> Both of those give me that screen
[03:32] <flocculant> Raku: I mean what are you trying to install this to? what's the target?
[03:32] <Raku> Hard drive
[03:34] <flocculant> Raku: you could try some of the boot options - hit the key at the kdb/human thing - then F6
[03:35] <flocculant> but if you are getting that screen all the time - then it would *appear* to be an install media issue
[03:36] <Raku> I would agree if I hadn't used this card with a diff ISO and it worked and it wasn't the second one I've tried
[03:36] <Raku> Which boot option would you suggest?
[03:37] <flocculant> Raku: mmm - not sure tbh - not had a not booting medium for years :)
[03:37] <flocculant> http://bit.ly/1VZxEBs
[03:37] <flocculant> try that - ends up at google
[03:38] <flocculant> try second link - au one
[03:40] <Raku> Got the first half of the errors to stop
[03:41] <Raku> Need acpi=off and nomodeset
[03:41] <flocculant> Raku: then just try nomodeset
[03:42] <Raku> Might be causw it's on a 3.0 porr
[03:42] <Raku> Port
[03:43] <Raku> Can't say I haven't had issues with them before, I should rulled that out earlier
[03:43] <Raku> I'm going to feel mighty stupid if that was the issue
[03:44] <flocculant> Raku: I did an install recently with uefi on usb3
[03:44] <flocculant> not with a sd card though :)
[03:44] <flocculant> try nomodeset
[03:44] <Raku> Giving a similar error
[03:44] <Raku> Ya I have that
[03:44] <flocculant> I tried to get others to come by
[03:45] <Raku> Now I have the nongui boot screen thing
[03:45] <Raku> Xubuntu with the 4 pulsing dots under it
[03:46] <flocculant> Raku: also - #xubuntu is good for xubuntu specific things - for things this basic #ubuntu will have loads more eyes - and you should get a lot more help there
[03:46] <flocculant> install is install
[03:46] <Raku> Alright
[03:46] <flocculant> if you get there and installed - I'd love to know - please come back :)
[03:46] <Raku> So in boot options I have the USB and then it has it listed again with UEFI: prefixed
[03:47] <flocculant> I had to use UEFI
[03:47] <Raku>  I'm on here from my server so we can talk the whole way through :P
[03:47] <flocculant> :)
[03:48] <flocculant> well I have bouncer - so you can go to #ubuntu and get help and tell me :)
[03:48] <flocculant> it's almost 4am here ...
[03:48] <Raku> Where should I be putting the nomodeset in the gryb edit screen?
[03:49] <Raku> Anywhere specific or does it not matter!
[03:50] <Raku> s/!/?
[03:50] <Raku> That came out a lot more aggressive than I intended x.x
[03:52] <flocculant> oh sorry
[03:52] <flocculant> Raku: boot the image - hit any key
[03:52] <Raku> Ya I'm in the grub editor right now
[03:52] <flocculant> then when you're at the menu - F6
[03:52] <flocculant> oh ok
[03:52] <Raku> I've done it before I just forgot
[03:53] <flocculant> find the linux ... line
[03:53] <Raku> Add it to the boot= options?
[03:53] <flocculant> ends in quiet splash
[03:53] <Raku> Ya and then ---
[03:53] <flocculant> add nomodeset
[03:53] <flocculant> or you could replace quiet splash with it
[03:54] <Raku> Hooooooooly jesua that is a wall of errors
[03:54] <flocculant> mmm
[03:54] <Raku> That was comical to see
[03:54] <flocculant> hah
[03:54] <Raku> Hey I booted :S
[03:54] <Raku> :S
[03:54] <Raku> gah
[03:54] <Raku> :D*
[03:55] <flocculant> Raku: actually - if you replaced quiet splash with nomodeset - that's not errors - that's just being told what's going on :)
[03:55] <Raku> I didn't
[03:56] <flocculant> ok hard to tell what you saw :)
[03:56] <flocculant> but if it's booted - install now
[03:56] <Raku> Hmmm, it's noting I'm in UEFI mode
[03:57] <Raku> I'm installing over Linux mint should it matter!
[03:57] <Raku> ?*
[03:57] <flocculant> no idea tbh
[03:57] <flocculant> as long as the partition is right then yea
[03:59] <Raku> My plan was to take these two other 500 gig HDDs and raid them to 1tb, got any knowledge on that?
[03:59] <flocculant> none at all
[04:00] <Raku> Alright
[04:00] <Raku> Well thanks for the help :>
[04:00] <Raku> Have a nice night
[04:00] <Raku> Or morning
[04:00] <flocculant> hope I did ;)
[04:00] <Raku> Guess it's morning
[04:00] <flocculant> Raku: 04:00
[04:01] <Raku> Close enough :P
[04:01] <xangua> 4 am and on irc
[04:01] <xangua> ? ?
[04:04] <flocculant> xangua: isn't irc time - whatever time you get the answer :p

[13:15] <john123456> hi, i installed compiz on xubuntu 15.10 and trying to change the theme but i can't, dconf and gnome-tweak-tool dont work. Is there any solution to this?
[14:00] <heoyea> emerald
[16:16] <john123456> hi again, i think there is bug in compiz that i can't easily explain. I have only one panel at the bottom of the screen and when i maximize a window i can't move it from the very top pixels, see the screenshot, the red line i draw are the "dead" pixels
[16:16] <john123456> http://i.imgur.com/jl0i3B9.png
[16:16] <john123456> Can anyone else reproduce this?
[16:17] <knome> john123456, compiz isn't officially supported on xubuntu; i would ask the compiz support channel for ideas to fix your issue
[16:29] <GeekDude> My laptop won't connect to a specific SSID. Other devices (such as my android phone) connect fine, though. It tries to connect, but eventually times out.
[16:30] <GeekDude> How should I go about troubleshooting this? Most of what I find online just shows how to troubleshoot when you can't even see any networks
[16:30] <mrkramps> GeekDude, laptop connects to other SSIDs?
[16:30] <GeekDude> Yes
[16:30] <mrkramps> name of the SSID?
[16:30] <GeekDude> "Network Unavailable"
[16:30] <GeekDude> That's actually the SSID, not a status
[16:32] <mrkramps> which router?
[16:32] <GeekDude> My previous laptop had problems connecting as well, until I tried an Edimax external usb wifi dongle
[16:34] <GeekDude> I'll have a model number in a minute
[16:37] <GeekDude> The admin page for the router says C3000-100NAS
[16:38] <GeekDude> using WPA2-PSK [AES] for auth
[16:45] <mrkramps> GeekDude:$ lspci -nnk | grep Net -A2
[17:01] <GeekDude> mrkramps: https://paste.ubuntu.com/15309439/
[18:10] <GeekDude> mrkramps: Is there anything else I can provide?
[18:12] <mrkramps> GeekDude, notebook model?
[18:13] <GeekDude> Lenovo Thinkpad E550
[18:14] <mrkramps> GeekDude, is your router using dual wifi (2,4 and 5 Ghz)?
[18:16] <mrkramps> ubuntu and kernel version might help as well
[18:22] <GeekDude> mrkramps: 2.4GHz exclusively best I can tell. Xubuntu 15.10. `uname -r gives '4.2.0-30-generic'
[18:23] <mrkramps> GeekDude, from what i read on the internet there seems to be a stability regression with this wifi chip sice kernel 3.19
[18:23] <mrkramps> or probably since the corresponding firmware version
[18:25] <GeekDude> The other laptop I had trouble connecting to wifi with was a ThinkPad X61 also running Xubuntu 15.10, if that's relevant at all.
[18:26] <mrkramps> dunno, i guess the X61 is probably also using intel wifi
[18:27] <mrkramps> GeekDude, for example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1437913
[18:43] <GeekDude> mrkramps: Hmm, seems I can't connect with my edimax dongle either actually. I can connect using my TP-Link dongle, though the driver must be a bit funky because all the connections show up has having 0% wifi strength
[18:44] <mrkramps> GeekDude, do you have any usb devices attached to your router?
[18:46] <GeekDude> No, just coax, power, and 1 ethernet cable leading out
[19:04] <XFCERules> I can't connect to a Wi-Fi network on my Xubuntu laptop.
[19:23] <XFCERules> I can't connect to a Wi-Fi network on my Xubuntu laptop.
[19:30] <Raku> flocculant: hey you still awake?
[20:46] <JeZxLee> will Xubuntu 16.04 L.T.S. 64Bit fully support Intel HD 7000 graphics (currently running Win 10 and feel very ill)
[20:49] <knome> intel drivers generally have good support on linux
[20:49] <knome> i mean intel GPUs generally have good support on linux
[20:49] <knome> the open source driver for them works nicely
[20:50] <JeZxLee> 15.10 did not like Intel HD 7000 - just wondering if Intel open-source drivers are updated in 16.04?
[20:50] <knome> likely yes, but i would check with the live CD
[20:50] <JeZxLee> Xubuntu 16.04 64Bit Beta1 is feature frozen?
[20:52] <knome> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenialXerus/ReleaseSchedule <- feature freeze on feb 18
[20:53] <knome> but that doesn't mean updates/improvements for the drivers can't land, since i'm guessing that's what you're after
[20:53] <knome> bbl
[21:25] <xubuntu66w> I have a problem in xubuntu my window bars seemed to have turned blue, and I want them like their normal grey
[21:26] <pjotter> You mean the taskbars?
[21:26] <xubuntu66w> Yeah
[21:27] <pjotter> rightclick taskbar, choose 'taskbar'->properties, second tab under Background choose another color or system default.
[21:28] <xubuntu66w> when I right-click the taskbar there is no taskbar properties
[21:29] <pjotter> It's supposed to be the bottom option in the right click menu
[21:30] <pjotter> How did they get blue in the first place?
[21:31] <xubuntu66w> I'm in xubuntu 14.04 and when I right-click the taskbar all that is there at the bottom is "Close" and "Move to another workspce"
[21:32] <xubuntu66w> They changed when I started using chromium
[21:33] <pjotter> That's wierd. I'm on 14.04 too. When I rightclick the taskbar, anywhere, the bottom option is something like "Taskbars" with an arrow next to it. That brings up another popup with the Taskbar properties.
[21:33] <mrkramps> Panel → Panel Properties …
[21:35] <pjotter> Thanks mrkramps. I have localised language settings. So I'm notr sure what it says in English.
[22:22] <cajuntechie> Hey guys, I need some help. When I log into my system, I am told I have 7 packages to be updated and 7 of them are security updates. I've done an update/upgrade and it tells me there is nothing to install. Any idea what might be going on?
[22:23] <cajuntechie> Never mind, apparently it was some sort of lag as it just cleared up
[23:52] <mijk> hi, I just updated to Xenial on my Thinkpad W500 and the video adapter seems to be messed. I get an error running glxinfo: libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
