[07:05] <Doc-Saintly> Hello. I have my computer hooked up to my TV. If I turn it on with the HDMI connected to the TV, but the TV off, the screen will always show black and not respond. If I restart the computer while the TV is on, the screen works fine.
[07:05] <Doc-Saintly> I'm guessing it's a problem with detection / configuration of the screen. Is there a way to make it automatically fix this? Or even a way to do it manually without restarting?

[07:08] <ubottu> bugzilla.xfce.org bug 11107 in Xfsettingsd "xfsettingsd resets TV mode to NULL on power cycle" [Critical,Reopened] https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11107
[07:10] <flocculant> I didn't get anywhere with patches there - but I did have success creating a script (comment 48) and having that in startup
[07:10] <flocculant> obviously need to make sure of your output
[07:12] <Doc-Saintly> flocculant: thanks, checking it out.
[07:12] <Doc-Saintly> Seems surprising it hasn't been fixed through an apt-get upgrade uet
[07:12] <Doc-Saintly> yet*
[07:12] <flocculant> well that'd only happen if there was a released fix :)
[07:16] <Doc-Saintly> :\ it seems like a pretty big deal to just let it sit like that
[07:17] <flocculant> Doc-Saintly: maybe so
[07:20] <Doc-Saintly> anyway, xrandr is saying "Can't Open Display"
[07:20] <Doc-Saintly> even as sudo
[07:28] <Doc-Saintly> mm, bleh. I guess back to restarting my computer each time. Really annoying.
[07:28] <Doc-Saintly> thanks for the help flocculant
[07:29] <flocculant> Doc-Saintly: sorry - wandered off
[07:29] <flocculant> not sure why xrandr says that - I assume that currently you can see it
[07:29] <Doc-Saintly> flocculant: using TeamViewer I can see the screen
[07:30] <Doc-Saintly> and it's running fine, albeit at the wrong resolution (compared to TV resolution)
[07:30] <flocculant> no idea about that thing :)
[07:30] <Doc-Saintly> well, let's ignore that and just focus on the video card and that it works :)
[07:30] <flocculant> maybe restart it - look at xrandr again
[07:30] <Doc-Saintly> how do I tell xubuntu to just restart the display / reconfigure things.
[07:31] <Doc-Saintly> I'm really tired of having to do a restart on these things. it's a media server PC, so it shuts down all my servers when I have to do this just to get the display to work
[07:31] <flocculant> Doc-Saintly: yup I understand - I had the same thing - sort of
[07:32] <Doc-Saintly> would changing distros help?
[07:32] <Doc-Saintly> I can't stand the god awful GUI that Ubuntu uses by default now. Worst decision ever ~>~
[07:33] <flocculant> :)
[07:33] <flocculant> I went somewhere else - but my issue was a pc *just* serving the tv - doesn't do anything else
[07:34] <Doc-Saintly> so how did you solve it? Just switched distro for the PC TV?
[07:34] <flocculant> yup
[07:35] <Doc-Saintly> :\ is there a clean way to do that without doing a fresh install?
[07:35] <flocculant> using openelec - it's been up for months now
[07:36] <Doc-Saintly> well, need to restart which will bump me out of here. Thanks again for the help :)
[07:36] <flocculant> no - had to reinstall it - but I obviously only had that
[14:10] <Mark_D> Anybody knows why xfce4-mixer is missing in Xenial ?
[14:34] <KeyboardNotFound> I have xubuntu 15.10 how can I upgrade to 16.04 without reinstalling ?

[15:09] <faultoverride_> Hello,  I am trying to forward X11 through ssh.  Everything appears to be working until a program tries use opengl.  glxgears fails with Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual. glxinfo says it can't find GLX.  I can post more logs to pastebin if any one is willing to help.

[17:10] <faultoverride> I am using Xubuntu 16.04 where does the X server store the startup config? I need to unset the -nolisten tcp flag.
[19:00] <Guido1> I can't acces folders which are on an windows XP home computer. (windows XP can acces the files on the linux laptop. I also can't print using the printer on the same XP - Need some username and pasword)
[19:08] <mariano> I can't seem to be able to install third party apps like chrome. Can someone help me.
[19:09] <pencilandpaper> Its unfortunate that we can't remove systemd without completely ruining our system. :(
[19:10] <pencilandpaper> Meanwhile, right now I am running hexchat, pidgin messenger, terminal, and conky, and am using 710mb ram.
[19:10] <pencilandpaper> With Xfce? Thats outrageous.
[20:04] <recon_lap1> danm it, looks like adding the propriety drivers killed my desktop
[20:17] <yedderson> on my minimal xubuntu 16.04 setup, the boot messages are not logged, how can I enable it ?
[20:19] <yedderson> boot is verbose and I'm looking to log the messages
