| fantom | Hi all. Tell me how to configure auto logon? | 09:53 |
| cub | fantom: perhaps http://askubuntu.com/questions/530072/how-to-auto-login-in-xubuntu works? | 09:54 |
| fantom | I'm from Russia and very bad know English. I have a lightdm folder are only two files that lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf and users.conf. | 10:01 |
| cub | fantom: the second answer on the page was a graphic solution. maybe a bit easier? | 10:02 |
| fantom | I have no settings in the Users and Groups which package to install for that to show up? | 10:07 |
| cub | I though that would be default. Unfortunately I can't check myself as I'm on a work computer with Windows ... | 10:11 |
| fantom | How long are you going home? | 10:13 |
| fantom | Everything was solved, installed the package, users-manager and appeared setting up accounts and auto login. | 11:00 |
| fantom | Всем спасибо, все свободны! | 11:01 |

| dabblers-buffet | Hello, I have an issue here with Ubuntu Studio. Whenever I leave my computer alone for a while, and I come back to it, I see that my monitor went into power savings mode. I try to move the mouse and press some keys on the keyboard, and my monitor does not display the desktop at all, it will display only if I go into a TTY via Ctrl+Alt and any of the F keys. | 17:43 |
| dabblers-buffet | And I would have to type in "startx" to get it working again. | 17:43 |
| dabblers-buffet | This issue also happens in suspend mode as well when waking up the computer. | 17:45 |
| OvenWerks | dabblers-buffet: Hmm, My first thought on that would be video driver. | 17:50 |
| OvenWerks | I do not have that here. | 17:50 |
| dabblers-buffet | No, because I don't have that issue on Linux Mint. | 17:51 |
| OvenWerks | monitors power down and mouse move wakes just fine. | 17:51 |
| dabblers-buffet | I wonder if that issue could have happened before I updated my system. | 17:51 |
| OvenWerks | minit is older. I am assuming Studio 16.04 against the latest Mint with will be based on an older ubuntu set of repos. | 17:52 |
| dabblers-buffet | I know Mint is older, that's why I came on to Ubuntu Studio, because I dabble in multimedia stuff as well, plus I have preset up to date packages too. | 17:53 |
| OvenWerks | 16.04 ubuntu (not just studio) has switched over to systemd... but I think it is possible to boot to use upstart as well. | 17:53 |
| dabblers-buffet | The latest version of Mint is based on 16.04. | 17:53 |
| dabblers-buffet | Although they are usually behind in the Ubuntu releases when it comes to the LTS ones. | 17:54 |
| dabblers-buffet | Never usually stay up to date with the LTS ones. | 17:54 |
| OvenWerks | The grub menu should show up with other options as a submenu and last time I looked there was an upstart option. Do you see that? (may have to hit shift while booting for the grub menu to show.) | 17:55 |
| dabblers-buffet | I can't check now. | 17:56 |
| dabblers-buffet | I'll try that when I restart my computer. | 17:56 |
| dabblers-buffet | Later. | 17:56 |
| dabblers-buffet | What's this upstart option? | 17:57 |
| OvenWerks | Mint may have chosen not to allow systemd boot. We just used whtever xubuntu is doing. | 17:57 |
| OvenWerks | when linux starts it runs "init" (I think) which used to run sysv init. A number of years ago ubuntu switched to upstart which does the same thing but faster because it is paralel. | 17:58 |
| Unit193 | In short though, I'd not recommend using the 'upstart' option. | 17:59 |
| OvenWerks | lately the whole linux world including debian has switched to systemd which is also a startup system | 17:59 |
| OvenWerks | Unit193: That would be my guess too... any other ideas? | 17:59 |
| Unit193 | OvenWerks: Ideas? | 18:00 |
| OvenWerks | on what may be the problem with not waking from sleep or powering up monitors. | 18:00 |
| dabblers-buffet | I didn't get this issue on Mint, but to note I was running on 14.04. | 18:00 |
| * OvenWerks uses intel onboard graphics which tend to "just work" if not be blazing fast... | 18:01 | |
| OvenWerks | dabblers-buffet: the big difference from 14.04 (aside from kernel version) is the change from upstart to systemd. | 18:02 |
| dabblers-buffet | So 16.04 runs on systemd while 14.04 runs on upstart? | 18:04 |
| OvenWerks | I am not aware of any xfce bugs with power management in the monitor so I would expect something with video driver. | 18:04 |
| OvenWerks | dabblers-buffet: yes. | 18:04 |
| dabblers-buffet | That could be one problem. | 18:04 |
| dabblers-buffet | How long is Ubuntu Studio supported? | 18:04 |
| dabblers-buffet | The 14.04 version? | 18:04 |
| Unit193 | OvenWerks: There's that one, and also check the changelog of..xfce4-settings, I recently uploaded one to yakkety that might fix a blcak screen bug. | 18:04 |
| Unit193 | OvenWerks: Also, release notes, very important. | 18:05 |
| OvenWerks | dabblers-buffet: Ubuntu Studio 14.04 Trusty Tahr LTS will be supported until April 2017 | 18:06 |
| OvenWerks | dabblers-buffet: as above, make sure the sw is up to date | 18:07 |
| dabblers-buffet | Yes, I did check that. | 18:07 |
| dabblers-buffet | I ran sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade. | 18:07 |
| OvenWerks | I am not sure if up dating is enough or if the settings file in your home directory would hold old settings. | 18:08 |
| dabblers-buffet | I just found this here. | 18:11 |
| dabblers-buffet | Xfce4 Power Manager does not restore screen power (1259339). You can try running xrandr, which has worked as a problem-free workaround for some users. Alternatively, to restore a working desktop go to TTY1 (Ctrl+Alt+F1) and restart lightdm with sudo service lightdm restart. NOTE: You will lose all unsaved work in progress! It appears that all instances of this bug so far are caused by suspending by closing | 18:11 |
| dabblers-buffet | the laptop lid - suspending from the logout dialog works to the best of our knowledge. | 18:11 |
| dabblers-buffet | This is from the Trusty Tahr Release notes on Ubuntu's website. | 18:12 |
| OvenWerks | fun... | 18:13 |
| OvenWerks | so instead of restarting x run xrandr then c/a/F7 back to GUI | 18:14 |
| OvenWerks | I thought xfce4 power manager just ran xset. I guess not. | 18:14 |
| dabblers-buffet | I'll try that. | 18:26 |
| dabblers-buffet | But it also said as an alternative, to restart lightdm as well. | 18:26 |
| OvenWerks | starting lightdm looses your work if it is not saved | 18:28 |
| dabblers-buffet | I know. | 18:29 |
| OvenWerks | if you can see what you are typing in the VT then just c/a/f7 should work. | 18:29 |
| dabblers-buffet | VT? | 18:29 |
| OvenWerks | virtual terminal. | 18:29 |
| OvenWerks | where you go with c/a/F1 | 18:30 |
| dabblers-buffet | Oh. | 18:31 |
