[01:08] <JeZxLee> are the AMD proprietary display drivers fixed now for 16.04 ?
[01:31] <Travis> Hello.
[01:32] <Travis> Will installing an older verison of Xubuntu with a non-PAE option, then upgrading work, for getting around my PAE issue?
[06:24] <xubuntu54w> Hi there,I am a new Linux user :) I have the problem with the Battery,it says No support for device type: power_supply,and the Icon is still 50%,have someone the same problem or can help me?
[13:53] <lovkesh77> i cannot use wifi on my pc ??
[13:53] <lovkesh77> how to  install driver?
[13:55] <lovkesh77> can anyone help?
[13:55] <lovkesh77> its urgent
[13:58] <GeekDude> lovkesh77: Are you using a livecd/usb, or have you already installed Xubuntu?
[13:58] <GeekDude> My laptop's wifi doesn't work on the LiveUSB, but it does work after installation
[14:00] <lovkesh77> i have already installed it
[14:00] <lovkesh77> presently i am using a wifi adapter
[14:00] <GeekDude> What model computer do you have?
[14:01] <lovkesh77> sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer
[14:01] <lovkesh77> after i typed this
[14:01] <lovkesh77> my wifi adapter has also stopped working
[14:02] <lovkesh77> actually i have an old dell latitude series laptop
[14:03] <lovkesh77> now it shows that wifi is disabled by hardware switch
[14:05] <lovkesh77> what should i do?
[14:11] <GeekDude> I'm not sure to be honest
[14:11] <GeekDude> What model computer do you have, specifically?
[14:12] <knome> lovkesh77, have you actually disabled the wifi by a hardware switch then?
[14:12] <lovkesh77> latitude d610
[14:13] <lovkesh77> then what should i do?
[14:14] <knome> where did you find out you should install the package you told you installed?
[14:16] <akxwi-dave> Try pressing Fn +F3 to see if it turns it back on
[14:20] <lovkesh77> i just googled it
[14:21] <lovkesh77> fn + f3 does not seem to work
[14:21] <cm2> lovkesh77: restart network-manager
[14:22] <cm2> sudo systemctl restart network-manager.service
[14:23] <lovkesh77> i have done it
[14:23] <lovkesh77> i cant still enable wifi
[14:25] <lovkesh77_> only i can use ethernet
[14:27] <lovkesh77_> what should i do??
[14:27] <cm2> lovkesh77: what does "nmcli d wifi" say?
[14:28] <cm2> (i'm late to this party, but it looks like you installed firmware?)
[14:28] <cm2> i would reboot after that
[14:29] <lovkesh77_> *  SSID  MODE  CHAN  RATE  SIGNAL  BARS  SECURITY
[14:29] <lovkesh77_> nmcli d wifi says this
[14:30] <cm2> yeah there's no wireless interface
[14:30] <cm2> do you know if wireless works on this machine?
[14:30] <lovkesh77_> yes it works
[14:30] <lovkesh77_> surely
[14:31] <lovkesh77_> i have used it while using windows previously
[14:31] <cm2> what does lspci tell you?
[14:32] <lovkesh77_> xubuntu@xubuntu-Latitude-D610:/$ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 03) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW 
[14:34] <cm2> which kernel?
[14:34] <lovkesh77_> what does that mean?
[14:35] <lovkesh77_> i am using xubuntu 15.10
[14:36] <cm2> lovkesh77_: ok; try this
[14:36] <cm2> lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network
[14:36] <cm2> what's the output?
[14:37] <lovkesh77_> xubuntu@xubuntu-Latitude-D610:~$ lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network 03:03.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:4318] (rev 02) 	Subsystem: Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card [1028:0005] 	Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- 	Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <T
[14:40] <cm2> ok; and you already installed the b43 firmware. correct?
[14:40] <cm2> (btw, you have a BCM4318 chip. write it down)
[14:41] <cm2> you are now missing the driver.
[14:41] <cm2> you need the b43 driver which you can get from here: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43
[14:42] <cm2> and then read this (twice) and follow instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#Installing%20STA%20drivers
[14:42] <cm2> and stop installing things just because someone told you so.
[14:42] <lovkesh77_> kk
[14:42] <cm2> you're missing the driver that's all
[14:43] <cm2> otherwise lspci would tell us which driver is in use
[14:43] <cm2> follow the instructions. you'll get it going.
[16:53] <JeZxLee> when will proprietary AMD display driver work on 16.04 ?
[16:55] <pflanze> Hi. I'm looking for GPG signatures on the release images.
[17:01] <krytarik> pflanze: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/16.04/release/
[17:04] <pflanze> Thanks!
[17:06] <krytarik> JeZxLee: That depends on AMD making it work with the current X server.
[17:09] <JeZxLee> krytarik - hope it's soon - running Win 10 on my AMD desktop and would like to install Xubuntu soon
[17:14] <GeekDude> I really wish X would stop crashing whenever I add or remove external monitors on my laptop
[17:14] <GeekDude> Maybe I should be blaming the proprietary amd drivers I'm using
[17:29] <stephane> Hi ! I have a question about swap... I've just installed Xubuntu 16.04LTS with a " / " " /home " and "swap" partitions and encrypt my home folder.. and just after I tried to run a ecryptfs-setup-swap and I have an error message saying:
[17:30] <stephane> I dont have any swap space defined..
[17:30] <stephane> any reason?
[17:31] <stephane> and when I check on gparted I have a swap partition but "type: unknown"
[17:35] <suncokret> what is better for install, xubuntu 14.04 or xubuntu 16.04?
[21:51] <JeZxLee> there is no log viewer in Xubuntu 16.04 ?
[21:56] <knome> not one specifically designed for that purpose
[22:33] <hispeed67> where should i go to ask questions/seek help with using a camcorder with ubuntu?
[22:34] <knome> #ubuntu ?
[22:35] <hispeed67> trying in there too
[22:35] <hispeed67> figured might find more advanced multimedia people in here.
[22:36] <knome> i don't know why that would be so, nonetheless you should keep questions in one channel at a time
[22:37] <hispeed67> xubuntu is a multimedia distro.. so i figured it was worth a shot.
[22:37] <Unit193> That's UbuntuStudio, not Xubuntu.
[22:37] <knome> Unit193, or maybe we don't know what we're doing (:
[22:37] <hispeed67> woop. you're right. my bad..
[22:38] <Unit193> knome: Ooooh!  I'll go for that one, I have no idea. ;D
[22:48] <pflanze> Hello. How much space does Xubuntu need? We've allocated an about 72GB partition to /, but it ran full during install. Can this be real?
[22:48] <knome> nope
[22:49] <pflanze> Well, it shows 5% free space now, but one of the error messages in /var/log/<something> that was recommended we have a look at showed "out of space"
[22:49] <pflanze> So, doubly odd then.
[22:49] <Unit193> I have it on a disk smaller than you allocated to it..
[22:49] <pflanze> So why would it fill it with 68 MB of stuff?
[22:49] <mikodo> MB/
[22:49] <pflanze> GB
[22:49] <urraka> i installed it on a 10GB partition while testing
[22:49] <urraka> and no problems
[22:49] <mikodo> You sure?
[22:50] <pflanze> Yes, it also ran until almost the very end until it failed.
[22:50] <pflanze> (Using encrypted home btw.)
[22:50] <pflanze> (But no dmcrypt)
[22:50] <hispeed67> i've installed xubuntu  on 4 and 8 gig partitions.. i use separate for /home.
[22:50] <Unit193> Check where the space went, perhaps du -h on /tmp/ and /var/ ?
[22:59] <mikodo> pflanze, Is this in a vm where the host is running out of room possibly?
[23:00] <pflanze> No, plain eee pc laptop.
[23:00] <mikodo> k
[23:00] <pflanze> Rebooting from the live image now.
[23:04] <pflanze> actually just going to reinstall.
[23:05] <pflanze> This time directly choosing the "install now" button.
[23:05] <pflanze> (No time to fiddle around and figure out what went on.)
[23:09] <pflanze> Could the home encryption have been the issue?
[23:17] <pflanze> I switched to the second screen (ctl-alt-2) and 3 etc. in the search for a login / shell prompt, which I didn't get (just blank black screens),
[23:18] <pflanze> then went back to screen 1 (installer in X), now the X mouse pointer is gone.
[23:23] <pflanze> Found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1568604
[23:23] <pflanze> Now if only I could run a shell command?
[23:23] <pflanze> While running the installer.
[23:23] <gump744> how can I change the Xubuntu XFCE menu button appearance? I know how to change themes and icons but can't find a way to do this though I have seen people who change these
[23:35] <urraka> gump744, right click on it, choose panel -> panel preferences, then go to items tab, select whisker menu and click the config button
[23:35] <urraka> that's how it works here on 16.04 at least
[23:38] <urraka> eh apparently you can right click it and just choose properties...
[23:40] <gump744> geez how did i miss that...but how do you add a new icon? do you have to create a file somehow?
[23:40] <urraka> oh there's probably some dir where you can place icons, not sure about that
[23:41] <urraka> there's /usr/share/icons/ so i'd try in ~/.local/share/icons/
[23:42] <urraka> just guessing now though
[23:45] <gump744> urraka: usr/share/icons is mostly icon themes for system....three of the icon options from the whisker menu properties are in there but I can't find all the others-.local/share/icons has a few folders but its mostly google icons
[23:46] <gump744> tried selecting the icons to see a path but you can't
[23:49] <urraka> gump744, i found a bunch of app icons in /usr/share/pixmaps/
[23:49] <gump744> thanks will have a look
[23:50] <gump744> ah yep that looks like the bulk of them...so do I just find an icon online and copy it there as a png? how do I make sure the size is right?
[23:52] <urraka> i imagine it will get resized to fit
[23:53] <gump744> thanks
[23:58] <pflanze> Problem: fresh install, "iwconfig" shows a network interface, but none is configured, and nm-connection-editor doesn't have anything on wireless.
[23:58] <pflanze> How comes?
[23:58] <pflanze> We didn't install the binary drivers. But given that iwconfig shows an interface...?
