| needmorevolume | Xubuntu 14.04 and VLC 2.1.6 has normal volume range when playing mp3 music but some movies are very quiet even at max volume (VLC and System)...these same movies play fine on OSX/VLC. Ideas? | 01:48 |

| kzrgr | hello, is there any official guide how to change to compton and set it up, to prevent the tearing? | 08:51 |
| kzrgr | noone alive? | 09:26 |
| kzrgr | >.< | 09:26 |
| knome | kzrgr, there is no official guide since compton is not officially supported | 09:41 |
| kzrgr | ouch | 09:42 |
| kzrgr | is there any other way to fix the tearing without compton? | 09:42 |
| knome | that doesn't mean it wouldn't work | 09:42 |
| knome | many people are using it | 09:42 |
| xubuntu77w | hi there | 13:05 |
| xubuntu77w | i'm getting a bug | 13:05 |
| xubuntu77w | when i lock my computer, my mouse desapear | 13:05 |
| xubuntu77w | there is any fix for it already? | 13:06 |
| akxwi-dave | there isn't a full fix yet... but i beleive that if you ctrl+al+f1 then ctrl+alt+f7 its a work around until a fix is found | 13:08 |
| xubuntu77w | ok ty | 13:08 |

| xubuntu49i | hi guys. should i install the proprietary graphics drivers, for games? I refer to games like GTA San Andreas. | 13:48 |

| skjones | intermittent wireless problems since installing xubuntu 16.04. anyone else seeing this? | 15:16 |
| cm2 | skjones: yes. after suspending? | 15:36 |
| skjones | yes | 15:37 |
| cm2 | you can always restart network manager | 15:37 |
| cm2 | that works. | 15:37 |
| cm2 | also if you suspend by calling "systemctl suspend" it doesn't happen | 15:38 |
| cm2 | which makes me think maybe a race condition in power-manager? | 15:38 |
| skjones | any rumors on a fix coming out? | 15:38 |
| cm2 | skjones: none. i just see complaints. | 15:38 |
| cm2 | also it takes much longer to suspend. do you find? | 15:38 |
| skjones | cm2, now that you mention it - yes | 15:39 |
| cm2 | 15.10 was instant. 16.04 up to 30 secs for me. | 15:39 |
| skjones | 16.04 seems to below ubuntu's normal standards? seems that way to me. | 15:40 |
| skjones | especially for an LTS | 15:40 |
| cm2 | skjones: no no. | 15:40 |
| cm2 | skjones: it could be an intel thing. | 15:40 |
| cm2 | skjones: a regression in i915 | 15:41 |
| skjones | cm2, ah, didn't consider that, what, exactly, is i915? intel driver ? | 15:41 |
| cm2 | skjones: display driver. what do you have thinkpad? | 15:42 |
| skjones | cm2, Dell laptop | 15:42 |
| cm2 | intel graphics? (probl. yes) | 15:42 |
| skjones | cm2, yes - i think so | 15:42 |
| cm2 | your cursor doesn't disappear after a lock? | 15:43 |
| skjones | cm2, yes | 15:43 |
| cm2 | ok - so you know of the workarounds. | 15:43 |
| cm2 | skjones: the thing to do is wait for an upgrade to the intel driver now. | 15:43 |
| cm2 | i believe it is already fixed in debian. | 15:43 |
| cm2 | if you can live with the issues. | 15:44 |
| skjones | cm2, so does that mean it's "on the way"? | 15:44 |
| cm2 | skjones: during the xubuntu meeting the team members mentioned 16.04.1 | 15:44 |
| cm2 | maybe they can chime in | 15:44 |
| cm2 | ochosi or flocculant etc ... | 15:45 |
| skjones | cm2, .1 probably not coming until July or so? | 15:47 |
| cm2 | skjones: yes :( | 15:47 |
| cm2 | skjones: go back to 15.10? | 15:47 |
| cm2 | possible? | 15:47 |
| skjones | cm2, yeah, i could do that, but support ends about then too i think. may just live with it until .1 | 15:48 |
| cm2 | skjones: support does end, but it's fine :) | 15:49 |
| cm2 | i usually go 6 months over | 15:49 |
| cm2 | i wouldn't do that on a server though. | 15:50 |
| skjones | so are you on 16.04? | 15:50 |
| cm2 | yes. one machine on 16.04, one in 15.10 | 15:50 |
| cm2 | which is why i noticed the suspend times | 15:51 |
| cm2 | you can update the kernel on 15.10 if you're paranoid: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 15:52 |
| cm2 | but don't worry about it. as long as chrome keeps updating its fine. | 15:52 |
| skjones | cm2, have you been a xubuntu user for a while or do you distro hop like some do? just curious? | 15:53 |
| cm2 | xubuntu since gnome 2 went to unity | 15:53 |
| cm2 | 5, 6 years? | 15:54 |
| cm2 | maybe more. | 15:54 |
| cm2 | debian -> original ubuntu -> xubuntu | 15:54 |
| cm2 | that's it. | 15:54 |
| skjones | cm2, nice, thanks for the info. i think i'll just live with it for a while. | 15:55 |
| cm2 | skjones: yeah. make some keybindings for xsetting your display, restarting nm and you're good to go | 15:55 |
| skjones | cm2, going to hang out in here and see what else i can learn :) | 16:00 |
| cm2 | skjones: definitely. great community! | 16:00 |
| cm2 | there's also #xubuntu-devel | 16:00 |
| cm2 | and tell your friends! we need xfce to continue!! | 16:01 |
| skjones | cm2, is there an indication it won't continue? | 16:11 |
| cm2 | skjones: no no :) - but the more the merrier | 16:14 |
| skjones | ;) | 16:15 |

| geoffrian | Any xubuntu reps here? | 17:02 |
| flocculant | reps? | 17:03 |
| geoffrian | Someone who actually works on the project. | 17:03 |
| flocculant | well I don't *work* just try and get people to test things for us - but what's up? | 17:03 |
| flocculant | skjones: to save me trying to make sense of backlog - what did you want? (I see cm2's ping) | 17:04 |
| geoffrian | How do we financially support Xubuntu? Where do donations go. | 17:04 |
| flocculant | aaah | 17:04 |
| flocculant | geoffrian: ok - so we don't accept donations, we do have access to the *community* part of the donations anyone makes on the Ubuntu download page - and we do use those | 17:05 |
| flocculant | geoffrian: is that what you were referring to? | 17:06 |
| skjones | flocculant, we were just discussing the wireless issues with 16.04, i think cm2 gave me the info i needed. unless you know of a permanent fix? | 17:12 |
| flocculant | aah right - not aware of that issue tbh | 17:14 |
| flocculant | not seen a bug for it - but we'd not necessarily know that | 17:15 |
| flocculant | that said - a good proportion of xubuntu team use intel (and I would assume wireless) and not seen any talk in our dev channel | 17:18 |
| flocculant | skjones: clean install vs upgrade? | 17:18 |
| skjones | loses wireless connections after suspend | 17:18 |
| skjones | in 16.04 | 17:18 |
| skjones | clean install | 17:18 |
| skjones | seems to be a 16.04 issue not just xubuntu. cm2 indicated it might have already been fixed in debian. | 17:21 |
| flocculant | skjones: yea something like this would be | 17:22 |
| flocculant | and the cursor issue on suspend with intel is elsewhere too | 17:22 |
| flocculant | skjones: try sudo service network-manager restart when you come back from suspend | 17:22 |
| flocculant | does that fix it? http://www.debugpoint.com/2016/05/quick-fix-no-wireless-connection-after-sleep-suspend-in-ubuntu-16-04-xenial-xerus/ | 17:23 |

| megaminxwin | hi | 22:41 |
| megaminxwin | so for some reason, my wifi isnt working; it wont even detect that there are any networks | 22:41 |
| megaminxwin | despite it being enabled and me talking through wifi on my phone | 22:42 |
| genii | Sounds like a Broadcom | 22:42 |
| megaminxwin | indeed it is | 22:42 |
| megaminxwin | it was working perfectly fine until this morning | 22:42 |
| megaminxwin | which is especially weird since it still claimed that there werent any networks to connect to, but whatever | 22:43 |
| megaminxwin | ive restarted the network-manager service, the computer, and ive tried to get the device back up in ifconfig | 22:44 |
| megaminxwin | no luck | 22:44 |
| megaminxwin | any ideas? | 22:44 |
| genii | maybe check rfkill status | 22:50 |
| genii | If you booted up into Windows before this, it could have toggled it | 22:50 |
| megaminxwin | i dont have windows on this machine, its purely linux | 22:52 |
| megaminxwin | anyway none of them are blocked | 22:52 |
| megaminxwin | including brcmwl-0 | 22:53 |
| genii | Did you have a kernel upgrade? | 22:53 |
| megaminxwin | i suspended it last night, took it out of suspend this morning, wasnt working | 22:56 |
| megaminxwin | i dont think so? | 22:56 |
| megaminxwin | yeah this just isnt happening | 23:20 |
| megaminxwin | any other ideas? | 23:20 |
