[00:05] <mda123> Hi all, just wondering if anyone else has noticed Linux Mint graphics present in Xubuntu. It's relatively disconcerting.
[00:05] <mda123> http://i.4cdn.org/g/1461628880548.png (I uploaded it to /g/ - might be frowned upon here, sorry if so)
[00:06] <knome> mda123, which icon theme are you using?
[00:07] <mda123> A blue variant of Numix. Is that what could be causing this?
[00:07] <mda123> I didn't realise the icon theme could change such graphics, my bad.
[00:07] <knome> indeed.
[00:19] <pmatulis> is there a way to configure app autostarting other than using the GUI applets? like a simple text file?
[00:31] <pmatulis> ah, stuff under ~/.config/autostart
[02:12] <xubuntu15i> hi
[02:13] <xubuntu15i> todo bien
[02:13] <xubuntu15i> estamos ready?
[02:13] <xubuntu15i> todo tiene su lugar
[02:13] <xubuntu15i> Cristo te ama
[02:52] <zek> does anybody know how 16 perform compared to 15 with amd graphic card?
[07:14] <xubuntu95w> hey! running xubuntu 14.04 . Desktop is not ;oading. Please help
[07:15] <xubuntu95w> *desktop not loading
[09:35] <valsum> hey
[09:35] <Guest34819> anyone around? I'm on16.04 and I've a few notes... Don't know where to send them
[09:36] <Guest34819> hey
[09:37] <Guest34819> hello?
[10:28] <jarnos> I have a couple of Wilys I would like to upgrade. Is is possible use an ISO file for upgrading? (no clean install)
[10:38] <akxwi-dave> yes it is..
[10:58] <Teaboy> anyone noticed their terminal font looking weird after upgrading to 16.04?
[11:13] <ewet> does the xubuntu sound backend now mandate muroar? i got it installed (I got a very old, continuously upgraded, install) and sound only works with it disabled.
[12:00] <jarnos> In 16.04 is it possible to use different custom DPI settings (in Appearance settings) for different monitors in multi monitor setup?
[12:25] <Teaboy> argh now I've got the mouse cursor disappearing bug
[12:47] <jarnos> Teaboy, you mean after unlocking when using light-locker?
[12:53] <Teaboy> yeah
[12:54] <Teaboy> I had this problem on my laptop a few years ago, but never had it on my desktop until I upgraded to 16.04
[13:13] <akxwi-dave> are you using intel gpu's there is a problem eith it and intel gprahics
[13:15] <cfhowlett> vague complaint = vague suggestions.
[13:27] <Teaboy> akxwi-dave: yep, exactly
[13:27] <Teaboy> seems to be many issues with skylake
[13:40] <hoodedice> so the new gnome installer is not installing any of the .debs I'm downloading. I'm running xubuntu in a VM with windows as host, if that matters
[13:44] <krytarik> hoodedice: LP bug 1573206.
[13:44] <hoodedice> thanks krytarik
[14:29] <xubuntu94w> Hello all! Trying to install 16.04. USB-drive in and booted. Black screen with mouse cursor. And in the upper corner a text "A start job is running for ubuntu installer".
[14:29] <xubuntu94w> Any ideas? :)
[14:33] <pmatulis> xubuntu94w: i got the same. i went for the 'try without installing' option and then hit the 'install' icon you get on the Desktop
[14:35] <xubuntu94w> I didnt got that "try without installing option" at all :/
[14:35] <xubuntu94w> *get
[14:52] <jarnos> Teaboy, maybe you want to try different locker then.
[14:58] <jarnos> Teaboy, kill light-locker, disable automatic startup of Screen locker in "Session and Startup" dialog, install e.g. i3lock, use xfce4-settings-editor to edit key /general/LockCommand of xfce4-session to have string "i3lock". Does it work for you?
[15:00] <_maddy> hi!
[15:22] <xubuntu94w> Resolved the "A start job is running for ubuntu installer" situation by formatting first the hard drive and then trying to install Xubuntu.
[15:22] <xubuntu94w> There was Windows installed before formatting
[15:59] <pmatulis> i had ubuntu installed before installing :)
[16:06] <xubuntu68w> Hi! I am on Xubuntu 15.10, I want to make the update to Xenial Xerus 16.04 but the upgrade manager talk me about Kubuntu, is it just a typographic problem ? https://i.imgsafe.org/229e07f.png
[17:36] <xubuntu68w> Hi! I am on Xubuntu 15.10, I want to make the update to Xenial Xerus 16.04 but the upgrade manager talk me about Kubuntu, is it just a typographic problem ? https://i.imgsafe.org/229e07f.png
[19:34] <xubuntu49w> Is anyone working on an arm version of Xubuntu? Thanks
[19:39] <bekks> xubuntu49w: I bet someone in #ubuntu-arm does.
[19:53] <nairwolf> What do you use as default font on Xubuntu ?
[19:53] <mrkramps> nairwolf, depends on your version
[19:54] <nairwolf> I'm using 16.04
[19:55] <nairwolf> I would like to know what people prefers
[19:55] <mrkramps> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noto_fonts
[19:55] <nairwolf> I know it's something subjective but I would like some good advices
[19:55] <nairwolf> thanks ;)
[19:56] <nairwolf> mrkramps: Are you using noto serif or noto sans ?
[19:56] <mrkramps> nairwolf, i am not using 16.04 yet, but default should be noto sans
[19:57] <nairwolf> oh, yes, I konw that the default is noto sans, but I'm looking to know what people prefers and what they use
[19:57] <mrkramps> ah ok … well, personally i just use the default font from the xubuntu default settings
[19:58] <mrkramps> which had been droid sans until it was replaced by noto now
[19:58] <nairwolf> oh, ok ;)
[19:58] <nairwolf> Which version do you use ?
[19:58] <mrkramps> whereas noto is based on droid fonts
[19:58] <mrkramps> 14.04
[19:58] <nairwolf> ok, I've changed recently, and I'm trying to configure my system
[19:59] <mrkramps> before droid sans i was using dejavu sans iirc
[20:01] <mrkramps> nairwolf, you could also have a look at roboto fonts … all three are or had been default fonts for android
[20:02] <nairwolf> ok, thanks
[20:03] <nairwolf> I'm finding the render weird, so that's why I'm trying to configure my system...
[20:03] <nairwolf> I don't know why but the graphical appareance was better on 14.04
[20:03] <mrkramps> nairwolf, maybe test different hinting options
[20:05] <nairwolf> oh, yes, I hadn't the default pixelissation order (I'm not sure for the perfect term in english)
[20:05] <mrkramps> ah, sub-pixel order
[20:05] <nairwolf> that's right !
[20:06] <mrkramps> that's pretty vital
[20:07] <nairwolf> indeed ;) And do you know what is supposed to do the parameter "style of toolbar" in Appareance ?
[20:08] <mrkramps> nairwolf, how toolbars in applications are shown
[20:08] <mrkramps> just start mousepad and test it
[20:08] <nairwolf> I don't see any changes so it's weird...
[20:09] <nairwolf> maybe I don't really know what to look
[20:10] <mooman> Apologies if this is on a FAQ somewhere... But I just installed 16.04 (as a VM in VirtualBox which could be related), and opened up the 'Software' app for adding packages, and everything in the app is blank.
[20:10] <mooman> Known issue?  Or something with me running in a VM?
[20:10] <mrkramps> nairwolf, ok … mousepad not working
[20:10] <nairwolf> mrkramps: indeed ;)
[20:11] <nairwolf> mooman: let me verify
[20:11] <mooman> (Net access works fine, Settings -> 'Software updater' works fine...  Just not the 'Software' app)
[20:11] <mooman> thanks nairwolf
[20:12] <mooman> I see lots of empty boxes with [ ... ] in each
[20:12] <nairwolf> http://imgur.com/BZljMKll.png
[20:12] <nairwolf> But I had the first line with ... also
[20:12] <nairwolf> Just click on it, and you'll see them
[20:12] <nairwolf> maybe it's a bug, yes
[20:13] <Executioner> https://i.imgur.com/v1Tmfbs.jpg
[20:13] <nairwolf> As you can see my screenshot, it works
[20:13] <nairwolf> Executioner: What is that ?
[20:13] <nairwolf> Thank you mrkramps by the way
[20:14] <mrkramps> you're welcome
[20:15] <mooman> nairworf, here's what I get for mine: http://mooman.com/software.png
[20:15] <mooman> wold*
[20:15] <mooman> er, wolf*  ~sigh~
[20:16]  * mooman has avoided Win10 like the plague
[20:17] <nairwolf> mooman: Use the "tab"
[20:17] <nairwolf> mooman: that's pretty weird
[20:17] <mooman> tab?
[20:17] <nairwolf> Use the key tab to get my name
[20:18] <nairwolf> autocompletion
[20:18] <ondondil> IMHO this new software app sucks
[20:18] <nairwolf> ondondil: Tells that to Canonical
[20:18] <ondondil> It doesn't even display apps that have no gui
[20:18] <mooman> ah, didn't know this irc client had autocomplete.  Thought you meant there was a tab to get my Software tool working ;)
[20:21] <nairwolf> mooman: no, for Software tool, I don't know. It's a weird bug. I had the same thing but only with the first line. After clicking on this line, I've seen icons
[20:22] <mooman> gonne go dork with permissions and see if that has something to do with it
[20:23] <flocculant> ondondil: yup - no gui apps there as noted on release note
[20:23] <flocculant> personally I don't use it nor the old ubuntu software center - nothing to stop you doing the same :)
[20:24] <mooman_> Okay, I think I resolved this.  Appears to have been permission related..
[20:25] <mooman_> I made myself a full admin (it was set to 'Custom' before) and now I get software packages.
[20:30] <mooman_> anyway, thanks for the reality check :)
[20:33] <nairwolf> oh, numix is great as a theme for the window manager ;)
[21:01] <nairwolf> On 14.04 it was possible to create a shortcuts in the window manager to move the window on the left (You know, it divides your screen in two and the window occupies the left side). Do you know if it's still possible ? I don't find the correct action
[21:07] <mrkramps> nairwolf, Tile window to the DIRECTION
[21:09] <nairwolf> can you tell me the action before this and after that ? French translations are sometimes weird....
[21:09] <mrkramps> nairwolf, Move window to workspace 12
[21:09] <mrkramps> and Show Desktop
[21:11] <nairwolf> are you using 16.04 ?
[21:11] <mrkramps> nairwolf, as said 14.04 but with 4.12 ppa
[21:12] <nairwolf> that's weird, I don't find it... I'm seeing show desktop and move window to workspace 12 but they aren't close...
[21:12] <nairwolf> ok, I've found it !
[21:12] <mrkramps> nairwolf, and between these tow there are all the functions to place windows
[21:15] <nairwolf> the order is different on my system
[21:15] <mrkramps> ok
[21:45] <slick_> how does Kubuntu's channel have more users than us? I know for a fact XFCE has to have more users
[21:45] <slick_> Prolly because Konversation autojoins #kubuntu actually
[21:46] <nairwolf> oh, that's something called cheating ;)
[22:21] <cmb_> Struggling to get password-less login between machines on my local network working (via ssh; newly installed 16.04 on both machines). Followed my normal routine: ssh-keygen -t dsa (no passphrase); ssh-copy-id to the relevant machine. But no still getting prompted for a password by the remote machine after the newly generated key has been installed. See: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16071736/
[22:25] <cmb_> Ahhh, sorted my ssh/passwordless login problem. Just use RSA keys rather than DSA ones.
[22:42] <xubuntu15w> Hello, I need help mounting an SD card
[22:42] <xubuntu15w> it is recognized, but won't mount
[22:43] <xubuntu15w> Error mounting /dev/mmcblk0p1 at /media/alex/3630-6362: Command-line `mount -t "exfat" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,namecase=0,errors=remount-ro,umask=0077" "/dev/mmcblk0p1" "/media/alex/3630-6362"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: unknown filesystem type 'exfat'
[22:43] <xubuntu15w> That is the error message ^
[22:46] <mrkramps> xubuntu15w, you probably have to install exfat-fuse and exfat-utils
[22:47] <xubuntu15w> Sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse?
[22:47] <mrkramps> sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils
[22:47] <xubuntu15w> followed by the same command for the exfat-utils?
[22:47] <xubuntu15w> alright
[22:48] <mrkramps> you can install multiple packages with one command
[22:49] <xubuntu15w> That's convenient
[22:55] <xubuntu15w> mrkramps, that resolved my issue -- thanks
[22:56] <mrkramps> you're welcome
[23:03] <ranta> How do I change the background to lightdm?
