=== bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [00:49] Hi [00:51] hello [05:52] I freakin' updated xubuntu 14.04 install yesterday and now can't log in.. it is inside VirtualBox as a guest.. [05:53] does anyone test those updates [05:53] button for power on login screen reacts, but wne menu opens it doesn't accept clicks [05:54] same with login, entered password and.. nothing [05:54] sounds like someone wanted to kill xubuntu with update that disables all installs [05:57] doesn't react on ACPI shutdown.. [05:58] nor on ctrl alt delete [05:59] nor on sending power signal [06:00] And after force shutting, now logged in normally.. [06:01] and 'Report problem' window arises after login [06:02] and now entering password for sudo reporting error, for 12th time.. [06:03] and in one of them, taking forever to actually display what problem is about.. [06:04] BUG: soft lock up: CPU#1 Stuck for 23s [Init:1] [06:06] VirtualBox is unchained here for some time, so it's definitively something about xubuntu update [06:07] So errors keep popping up [06:08] for an LTS it's too much [06:08] It have skype (inactive) and teamviewer installed (in background), not running on desktop [06:15] There's some update.. [06:16] Needles to say these sort of xubuntu errors were unexpected and I needed proptly to log in this morning and now moment has passed === Drunkwizard is now known as Internaut === IdleOne is now known as Guest66320 === timvishe` is now known as timvisher [12:53] New User that I am I hope to find some old soldiers that can keep my powder dry. I have an older compaq presario that accepted 16.04 and when I tried on a toshiba laptop was rejected as per arch being 32 not 64 so the CP is a bit smarter. So now that the prime is up and running on a direct connect it comes to mind that I should have put this box as the prime so that the install of the the CP would have discov === yazdmich is now known as BytesAndCoffee [19:21] What does this message mean on booting Xubuntu 'Playback Volume 0 is already present' note this is'nt the complete message as I did'nt have time to read it all [19:22] walkfar60, is there something that doesn't work? [19:24] knome, Not as far as I know the message appears when I first switch on computer not after a restart. I have had thunar crashing when moving files though [19:24] the thunar crashes are (unfortunately) know, but are unrelated to your message [19:24] so if it doesn't affect anything, then i'd dismiss it as "nothing" [19:26] knome, I searched the net and only found one reference which did'nt lead anywhere (but it would be nice to know why I get this message even if nothing appears to be at fault) [19:28] knome, Just a thought I occasionaly use headphones in laptop jack maybe it is getting confused? [19:28] that shouldn't be it [19:29] it's probably related to your specific hardware [19:29] but again, if it doesn't cause any issues, i'd just leave it :) [19:29] knome, What is playback volume as a matter of interest? [19:29] the general volume level [19:30] playback vs. recording [19:30] knome, Ok thanks for info. signing off [19:30] enjoy [20:54] i did a *very* lightweight installation of lxde doing "apt-get install lightdm; apt-get install lxde-core --no-install-recommends; [20:54] any idea how i get the Trash icon to work? [20:55] some programs can move folders to Trash (like Baobab), but i dont have the trash icon [20:55] i know its ~/.local/share/trash or something, [21:01] hanshenrik, lxde-core installs pcmanfm, which isn't even used by xubuntu; you might want to ask #lubuntu [21:02] oh shit sorry, i mixed Xubuntu with Lubuntu, my bad [22:22] Something happened ... I updated today and xubuntu won't let me change resolutions I"m stuck at 1920 x 1080. I like a lower resolution, also I can't seem to adjust brightness now. [22:22] What should I do? [22:22] I've tried using arandr and the `display` program from the settings menu [22:23] I'm old, and need a bigger resolution. [22:41] hello [22:42] the-erm: just use the display settings to change the resolution [22:42] how can i update firefox 35 to 40 [22:43] you mean 48? [22:43] no, sorry. i just saw firefox 50 [22:43] on mozilla.org [22:43] gr1dl0ck: That's the problem. There are no other resolutions listed just 1920 x 1080. [22:44] oh [22:44] Before there were other resolutions and I had it set up to work at a lower resolution. [22:44] the fonts were bigger, the icons were bigger ... [22:44] the-erm: can you remember what was updated? [22:44] no. [22:45] For all I know I screwed up a setting somewhere. [22:45] The last thing I can remember changing was a grub option to allow for the tty terminals when you press ctrl+alt+f1 [22:46] Another chat room suggested to change the dpi, which I did, however that's for fonts, it does nothing for icons. [22:47] Also ... I think it uses less video memory to run at a lower resolution so the computer is faster & less taxed. [22:48] the-erm: save the headaches and hassles, give your pc a fresh install [22:49] I installed in less than a month ago when I updated to 16.04.1 [22:49] If I'm going to re-install I'm going back to 14.04.2 :) [22:49] the-erm: is that still supported? [22:49] Maybe I should just give up and go to arch. [22:49] 2 more years... [22:50] the-erm: ugh i've tried it arch. I'm a simple kind of guy and arch is far from simple [22:50] Well I'd go with mangero ... or antegros. [22:51] I do a lot of dev, and kinda like the idea that I can dev on the same os as the server, but they run centos, and I'm not going to install that for a desktop. [22:52] I guess I should say my current active client ... [22:52] the-erm: sounds like you're still on the distro hopping stage. Go for it. Been there done that. Enjoy :D [22:52] I've been running xubuntu for years ... [22:53] I usually stick with xubuntu/xfce because kde messed things up, then gnome messed things up. [22:54] So I switched to xfce. It doesn't change as much, and I like that. [22:55] the-erm: I'm on linuxlite, which is xubuntu
