| pjotter1 | Hello everybody. What is the default font and fontsize for Xubuntu? | 01:27 |
|---|---|---|
| R13ose | How come xfce4 notifications don't do anything when I click show? | 03:15 |
| xangua | You're gonna have to be more specific | 03:17 |
| R13ose | xangua: when I the notifications that show up on the top right side for me that say "You have mail." or similar, and a show button, and click that, the program doesn't come to the foreground. | 03:43 |
| xangua | What program is showing that notification? | 03:45 |
| R13ose | xangua: I installed this from command: xfce4-notifyd | 03:46 |
| xangua | R13ose: and? What is the program that is showing this mail notification? | 03:48 |
| R13ose | The desktop notifications that is all I know. I don't know the exact name of this. | 03:49 |
| xangua | Well you sure configured some program to show your mail notifications...didn't you? | 03:50 |
| R13ose | xangua: nope. I was using that as an example. | 03:52 |
| xangua | Ok? | 03:53 |
| R13ose | don't notifications show up for you when there is a new message from a program? | 03:55 |

| knome | hello. | 15:46 |
| Darken__ | anybody??? | 15:46 |
| knome | i'm nobody. | 15:46 |
| Darken__ | hello are you use xubuntu??? | 15:47 |
| knome | (if you have a question, just ask it and if somebody knows the answer, they will reply) | 15:47 |
| Darken__ | sorry for that | 15:47 |
| Darken__ | ok well i lost my desktop icons and i do not find how restore it | 15:47 |
| knome | Darken__, settings manager -> desktop -> tab icons should help you get them back | 15:48 |
| Darken__ | ok i see and later tell you. | 15:49 |

| luminoso | hi! if i install 16.04 beta1 will it self-update to final version automatly? | 19:42 |
| luminoso | *automatically | 19:42 |
| luminoso | if i enable unattended updates for example | 19:42 |
| knome | automatically, no, but if you run the updates, then you get pretty much as much as you would get with the final 16.04 ISO | 19:42 |
| luminoso | ok that is very nice | 19:43 |
| rwd | !final | 19:43 |
| ubottu | If you install a development version of Ubuntu Xenial and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 16.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade » in a terminal. | 19:43 |
| === rwd is now known as ro | ||
| luminoso | thank you very much | 19:45 |
| luminoso | i'm asking this because "when there are security updates" in software&updates settings is greyed out | 19:46 |

| luminoso | this one | 19:46 |
| luminoso | is it because it's a beta? | 19:46 |
| aicasn | hey folks - i'm running xubuntu 14.04.4 LTS. every few minutes the system freezes for about 5 seconds. mouse works, but the keyboard does not. all keystrokes come in after the freeze, however, showing that they were buffered. any ideas on what this is? | 19:49 |
| well_laid_lawn | aicasn: I would have top running in a terminal to check if something uses all the system for a bit | 19:52 |
| aicasn | negative | 19:53 |
| aicasn | just had a freeze and htop reported nothing | 19:53 |
| aicasn | nothing out of the ordinary, that is | 19:53 |
| well_laid_lawn | did htop freeze too ? | 19:55 |
| aicasn | can't say for sure. i'll watch again on the next freeze | 20:04 |
| aicasn | feels like a read() gets hung | 20:14 |
| well_laid_lawn | you'll have to find out what is calling read then | 20:16 |
| aicasn | my suspicion is that it is X because the keyboard it completely hung during the freeze, but the mouse isn't. and even though the mouse is working window dragging does not work | 20:20 |
| aicasn | *work fluidly, that is | 20:22 |
| well_laid_lawn | why would X hang the keyboard but not the mouse ? | 20:23 |
| aicasn | no idea :/ | 20:23 |
| well_laid_lawn | doesn't seem likely to me | 20:23 |
| aicasn | it's significant in my mind because it rules out the keyboard driver | 20:23 |
| aicasn | if only the kb driver was hanging then mouse click-n-drag would work | 20:23 |
| aicasn | like i said i only have a couple of seconds each freeze to analyze things, but it's sooo annoying when you're typing -- | 20:25 |
| well_laid_lawn | if X was having major issues then the mouse pointer position wouldn't be updated | 20:25 |
| aicasn | i considered that, too, but i would think that the mouse handler would have a dedicated thread | 20:26 |
| aicasn | also, can you think of anything that 1) affects keyboard input, 2) affects x responsiveness (like draggin), 3) does NOT affect mouse cursor movement ?? | 20:26 |
| aicasn | i don't know of anything that would exactly match that, so right now i'm leaning towards X | 20:27 |
| well_laid_lawn | not offhand | 20:27 |
| aicasn | if it continues and i cannot narrow down the problem i suppose i would take that as an indication that this Xorg has a bug and maybe i should move off of LTS | 20:28 |
| aicasn | though i don't particularly want to O.O | 20:28 |
| well_laid_lawn | I would be inclined to think more of an input/output issue | 20:28 |
| well_laid_lawn | something is using resources and slowing the visual update | 20:29 |
| well_laid_lawn | enough free memory? swapping ? | 20:29 |
| aicasn | mouse cursor doesn't even stutter. mem usage < 50%. no swapping | 20:30 |
| well_laid_lawn | what programs are open when the delay happens ? | 20:36 |
| aicasn | xorg->xfce-> lots of terminals, firefox, htop | 20:37 |
| aicasn | this is a laptop so i'm not running a top of services in the bg | 20:37 |
| aicasn | *ton | 20:37 |
| aicasn | scratch ff. freeze happens w/o it | 20:38 |
| well_laid_lawn | does it happen with just one terminal open ? | 20:40 |
| aicasn | hah. i don't think i've ever had just one terminal open | 20:41 |
| aicasn | why do you think that terminal might have something to do with it? | 20:41 |
| well_laid_lawn | any remote filesystems mounted and being indexed or dropbox or similar ? | 20:41 |
| aicasn | negative | 20:42 |
| well_laid_lawn | justa guess | 20:42 |
| well_laid_lawn | maybe try dmesg -w ina terminal and see if the kernel shows something | 20:43 |
| aicasn | -w? | 20:44 |
| well_laid_lawn | it's kinda like tail -f , keeps showing dmesg output as it happens | 20:45 |
| aicasn | negative. invalid option | 20:45 |
| aicasn | dmesg --version dmesg from util-linux 2.20.1 | 20:45 |
| well_laid_lawn | try tail -f /var/log/kernel.log | 20:46 |
| lopta | Does Xubuntu ship with something that will show me the CPU temperature? | 20:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | lopta: you can install the sensors package | 20:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | !sensors | 20:47 |
| ubottu | To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. | 20:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | oops lm-sensors package | 20:47 |
| aicasn | kern.log has nothing for the past 3 hours and i have had several freezes since then | 20:49 |
| well_laid_lawn | k | 20:49 |
| well_laid_lawn | nothing in the X log ? | 20:49 |
| lopta | I think this poor computer needs help. | 20:50 |
| aicasn | the system doesn't seem to be taking note of it. kinda leans in the direction of my read() theory. technically blocking IO is behaving when it blocks | 20:50 |
| aicasn | nope | 20:50 |
| well_laid_lawn | does the lag happen when you're in a tty ? | 20:52 |
| aicasn | i could not make it happen. i typed out all the song lyrics i could think of in vim and it didn't stutter once | 20:52 |
| well_laid_lawn | ok | 20:53 |
| aicasn | strange isn't it? | 20:54 |
| well_laid_lawn | you could try using a window manager instead of xfce as a test just to see if it is X or an application that gets started | 20:54 |
| aicasn | that's an idea. i wonder if awesomewm has a decent deb repo | 20:55 |
| well_laid_lawn | !awesomewm | 20:55 |
| aicasn | last i tried it on linux the packaged version was soooooo out-of-date and buggy :/ | 20:55 |
| well_laid_lawn | I'd use the git repo | 20:56 |
| aicasn | yeah if i were going to stick with it i would for sure | 20:56 |
| aicasn | actually it might be better for a laptop than a point-and-shoot wm | 20:56 |
| well_laid_lawn | since you use lots of terminals a tiler might be appropriate | 20:57 |
| === ro is now known as ezri | ||
| aicasn | hah. my 4 pm appt canceled so i have an hour to play with it :D | 20:58 |
| well_laid_lawn | that's lucky | 21:01 |
| aicasn | very. and it's friday | 21:01 |
| well_laid_lawn | awesome takes some setting up - there are simpler wm's | 21:01 |
| aicasn | for sure. i like awesome though | 21:02 |
| aicasn | it's my pick of the tilling wms | 21:02 |
| well_laid_lawn | k | 21:02 |
| aicasn | and as i said i may stick with it on this laptop. i'm very pro-keyboard and the whole trackpad, quasi-mouse thing is a pain sometimes | 21:03 |
| well_laid_lawn | that's why I use a tiler | 21:04 |
| aicasn | which one do you use? | 21:05 |
| well_laid_lawn | I made my own | 21:05 |
| aicasn | you wrote yourself a tilling wm? | 21:06 |
| aicasn | nothing in repos that would have worked for you i guess ?? | 21:06 |
| well_laid_lawn | I'm just fussy | 21:06 |
| aicasn | lol. k | 21:06 |
| aicasn | straight to xlib or with a toolkit? | 21:07 |
| aicasn | well.. x11 | 21:07 |
| well_laid_lawn | just using the xlibs | 21:08 |
| aicasn | that's quite a time investment. i hope it works for you | 21:08 |
| well_laid_lawn | works great for me | 21:08 |
| well_laid_lawn | xlib is pretty straightforward once you know it | 21:09 |
| aicasn | grrrr.. 14.04 doesn't have cmake >= 3 | 21:25 |
| * aicasn goes ppa hunting... | 21:25 | |
| aicasn | okay...awesomewm is up | 21:33 |
| aicasn | first things first...fix font for my blind ass O.O | 21:33 |

| puckz | Hi all! My Software Updater says "Failed to download repository information - Check your Internet connection." Of course I'm connected to the net. Could someone guide me, please? I'm using Xubuntu 14.04. Thanks in advance! | 21:44 |
| knome | puckz, you might want to check if changing your repository to the main server helps (software & updates under settings manager) | 21:54 |
| puckz | knome Thanks. Had the Swedish servers, already changed to the main server without success. I haven't installed anything lately and haven't added any repos. | 21:56 |
| knome | did you update the repositories after changing? | 21:56 |
| puckz | Some update with a huge download of files was done. Let me do it again. | 21:57 |
| knome | after that, you could try running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" on the terminal and see if it gives you further information | 21:57 |
| puckz | Hmm. I get a message "Failed to download repository information" from the main servers. The detailed info is as follows | 22:01 |
| knome | !pastebin | 22:01 |

| puckz | W:Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release Unable to find expected entry 'main/binary-i386/Packages' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file) | 22:01 |
| puckz | , E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 22:01 |
| knome | right... so that's a PPA | 22:02 |
| knome | and it's also what fails | 22:02 |
| puckz | I guess it's some problems with the repo http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release, right? I'll try to disable that and then see if it works OK | 22:04 |
| Pici | !chrome-repo | 22:05 |
| ubottu | Run these 2 commands to get rid of the Errormessage:"sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list"" and "sudo sed -i -e 's/deb http/deb [arch=amd64] http/' "/opt/google/chrome/cron/google-chrome"" | 22:05 |
| aicasn | nice Pici | 22:07 |
| puckz | Sorry, still get the error message | 22:08 |
