| Romaindinternet | Hi I have a problem with re installing Lubuntu/ formating my HD | 11:39 |

| nortti | how does the Keyboard Layout Handler select what layouts to display for selection in the Add Keyboard Layout dialog, and/or how can I add my custom keyboard layout | 12:09 |
| nortti | I also tried just running setxkbmap directly, but even tho it reports a success in changing the layout, once I check it's been reverted back to what's selected in keylayout handler | 12:11 |
| nortti | alternatively, where is the source code of lubuntu's own software located at? | 12:13 |
| Deerclops | Hey guys, I'm on 14.04.4 and I'm trying to install an HP1018 printer. It's detected, it thinks all the necessery drivers are installed, but when I print a test page, it just disappears from the job queue after about 30 seconds, any ideas? | 16:19 |
| Deerclops | Is anybody here, this is only a 20 minute job on widows. I'd really rather not have to take up the whole day. | 16:25 |
| Deerclops | I'm sure it's nothing too complex. | 16:25 |
| Deerclops | ok nevermind, sorry to bother you | 16:58 |

| ilo123 | Hello, I am having trouble with xrandr. | 17:31 |
| ilo123 | I have two monitors, both resolutions are supposed to be 1600 | 17:31 |
| ilo123 | *1600x900 | 17:31 |
| ilo123 | But | 17:31 |
| ilo123 | The second one is only going up to 1024x768 | 17:32 |
| wxl | ilo123: could you pastebin the results of xrandr? | 17:33 |
| ilo123 | Yes | 17:33 |
| ilo123 | http://pastebin.com/sm3cx6fZ | 17:33 |
| ilo123 | That is the output of xrandr -q | 17:33 |
| wxl | ilo123: have you tried https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions ? | 17:34 |
| ilo123 | Do I replace "S-video" with the monitor? | 17:37 |
| wxl | yeah with like DVI-0 or whatever | 17:37 |
| ilo123 | http://pastebin.com/VBgC0Y33 | 17:38 |
| wxl | you have to --newmode first with the Modeline as the instructions say | 17:40 |
| ilo123 | I did this | 17:40 |
| ilo123 | I created a new modline with cvt | 17:41 |
| wxl | cvt doesn't add a new modeline | 17:41 |
| wxl | it gives you the mode line so you can feed it to --newmode | 17:41 |
| ilo123 | Which I did | 17:41 |
| wxl | you should see the new mode after that by running xrandr | 17:41 |
| ilo123 | I do | 17:41 |
| ilo123 | But | 17:41 |
| ilo123 | Whenever I switch it by using lxrandr (graphically), it says it can't be found | 17:42 |
| wxl | will xrandr allow you to switch? | 17:42 |
| ilo123 | Most likeyly, but I don't know the command | 17:42 |
| ilo123 | *likely | 17:42 |
| wxl | something like xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 800x600 | 17:43 |
| wxl | if you can successfully do it with xrandr but not with lxrandr, then file a bug against lxrandr | 17:43 |
| wxl | and meanwhile use that wiki page to tell you how to permanently make changes with xrandr | 17:43 |
| iol123 | Sorry :p | 17:45 |
| iol123 | I will give you the new output of xrandr -q | 17:46 |
| iol123 | http://pastebin.com/QtwqP1e9 | 17:47 |
| iol123 | wxl | 17:47 |
| iol123 | ? | 17:50 |
| wxl | i don't think so | 17:51 |
| wxl | even with lxpanel set to be treated as a dock, the dock settings in obconf don't seem to do anything | 17:52 |
| wxl | oops wrong channel :/ | 17:52 |
| iol123 | lol | 17:52 |
| wxl | anyways, it seems like it's added correctly | 17:52 |
| wxl | so it should just be a matter of switching | 17:52 |
| wxl | xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --mode 1600x900_60.00 | 17:54 |
| wxl | i *think* that's the format | 17:54 |
| wxl | might have to play around with the format of mode | 17:54 |
| iol123 | It says it can't find the mode when I do: xrandr --output DVI-D-0 --mode 1600x900_60.00 | 17:56 |
| iol123 | xrandr: cannot find mode 1600x900_60.00 | 17:56 |
| iol123 | I think I know what I did | 17:58 |
| wxl | that's good cuz i'm not figuring it out XD | 17:59 |
| iol123 | Nope, | 17:59 |
| iol123 | That wasn't what I though | 18:00 |
| iol123 | *thought | 18:00 |
| iol123 | lol | 18:00 |
| wxl | well | 18:00 |
| wxl | what card are you using? | 18:01 |
| wxl | ls | 18:13 |
| wxl | oops derp | 18:13 |
| ilo123 | wxl I think i got it | 18:17 |
| ilo123 | http://pastebin.com/huu3x4yS | 18:18 |
| wxl | ilo123: good. i was going to say that in googling it, it seems that some people have had problems with the cables they have used, as well as with nvidia cards, not to mention the way they name things | 18:18 |
| === pavlushka_ is now known as Guest91131 | ||
| ilo123 | I mean it still isn't working, but I think that is the source of the problem | 18:19 |
| wxl | try specifying 59.9 for the refresh rate | 18:20 |
| === Guest91131 is now known as pavlushka | ||
| ilo123 | That seemed to work, but now when I try to add it I get: http://pastebin.com/vnMh67xk | 18:22 |
| wxl | ilo123: what video card do you have? lspci -nnk | grep -A 3 VGA | 18:22 |
| wxl | yeah, as i suspected | 18:23 |
| wxl | apparently the proprietary nvidia driver doesn't play well with xrandr | 18:24 |
| wxl | nouveau supposedly works | 18:24 |
| ilo123 | It does | 18:24 |
| wxl | subsequently since lxrandr is a frontend to xrandr, it won't work well either | 18:24 |
| wxl | so, sadly, the problem lies in nvidia :) | 18:24 |
| ilo123 | I actually rebooted and my new mode was gone | 18:24 |
| wxl | yeah that's to be expected | 18:24 |
| ilo123 | So is there a fix? | 18:25 |
| ilo123 | Besides using nouveau | 18:25 |
| wxl | apparently this can be done using nvidia tools but i'm not expert in that regard | 18:25 |
| wxl | nvidia-config is the command apparently https://askubuntu.com/questions/66858/display-resolution-with-nvidia#comment78948_66869 | 18:26 |
| ilo123 | Thanks | 18:29 |
| ilo123 | bye now | 18:29 |
| wxl | np and good luck | 18:29 |
| lynorian | wxl that seems to be a rather old comment I think nvidia may have dropped support for fx 5200 | 19:11 |
