[02:31] <Fatcola> Hey guys, I was hoping to get some help?
[10:10] <xubuntuuser> hi, there is screen tearing when i move windows around
[10:11] <xubuntuuser> using xubuntu 16.10
[10:11] <xubuntuuser> how to fix this?
[10:12] <_zsc_> I'm having trouble with my 780ti and 16.04.  I'm running dual monitors and getting an issue where only one monitor is working and on that monitor I cannot set a resolution higher than 1280*768.  Which driver should I be using?  I've tried a few at this stage.... cheers
[10:34] <akxwi-dave> i always go for the resitricted nvidia ones.. neve a problems there
[14:23] <Jayroro> Hello, I just installed Xubuntu and I have an Intel 7260 wireless card. I was able to find out how to get it to stop disconnecting every 30 seconds or so but now it's very slow. This made me think I should look into getting a more compatible card. Is there a commended AC wireless adapter for max compatibility?
[14:24] <GridCube> !wifi
[14:25] <Jayroro> I'm guessing you didn't read the entire question...
[14:27] <flocculant> Jayroro: actually that link points at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[14:29] <Jayroro_> Yes, I understand it had a list of cards and chipsets. However the chipset I am currently using "works" it just works terribly. I was looking for a suggestion of personal experience perhaps
[14:30] <flocculant> yea - I got that - not everyone in here speaks english as a first tongue so that could get missed unless it's obvious to them
[14:30] <flocculant> I can't actually answer - no wireless ;)
[14:31] <Jayroro_> I would prefer using wired but I would prefer not to dig through walls to run the cable
[14:31] <flocculant> :)
[14:32] <Jayroro_> see it's a but unstable...
[14:33] <flocculant> Jayroro_: have a read here - might help https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2319414
[14:36] <Jayroro_> Thanks for looking, however that discussion ended with them ruling out every card that was reccomended
[14:41] <Jayroro_> probably an ethernet bridge will be the easiest to get working
[14:41] <habbasi> Jayroro_: I'm using a PCE-AC68 without issues.
[14:42] <Jayroro_> thank you :)
[14:42] <habbasi> Jayroro_: It needs restricted drivers, though. So depending on your Open-source Nazi-ness...
[14:45] <Jayroro_> i'm not too concerned with that as long as it is supported
[15:16] <p4ul> I am trying to install xubuntu on my usb flash drive. How important is it to have a swap partition? I have 8GB RAM so I don't think I need a swap partition or am I wrong?
[15:17] <bekks> p4ul: Swap on an USB will be horribly slow, so just omit it.
[15:18] <p4ul> bekks: ok thank you!
[22:04] <jpt9> I just updated to 16.10 from 16.04, and I seem to be getting "thermald[954]: sysfs write failed trip_point_0_temp" about every 20 seconds or so in journalctl...
[22:05] <jpt9> I've looked around a bit -- I seem to have a generic /etc/thermald/thermald-conf.xml file.  (I couldn't find one earlier -- I tried running thermald with info logging enabled, which may have created that file.)
[22:05] <jpt9> However, as far as I can tell, the fans are doing what they're supposed to -- they rev up if I start a render in Blender, etc.
[22:07] <jpt9> Should I attempt to fix this, or is it fine?  (Computer is a ThinkPad X220 (Sandy Bridge).
[22:09] <jpt9> Hang on... just realized it might be looking for the config file somewhere else...
[22:14] <jpt9> No luck -- that didn't fix it.
[23:39] <phenom> How do you enable autologin on xubuntu 16.04?
[23:41] <gr1dl0ck> phenom: on what system?
[23:42] <phenom> gr1dl0ck, lightdm xubuntu 16.04
[23:42] <gr1dl0ck> are you using this on a VM?
[23:42] <phenom> no
[23:43] <gr1dl0ck> ok on a first install when you are asked to create a user and password there is an option there to enable autologin
[23:43] <gr1dl0ck> you need to tick/enable that
[23:44] <GridCube> you can also edit it from the user config
[23:44] <GridCube> or in the lightdm.conf file
