irgendwer4711this bug appered again https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/79877020:08
ubottuLaunchpad bug 798770 in firefox (Ubuntu) "Firefox preferences select boxes too small in some themes" [Undecided,New]20:08
irgendwer4711the select button is not visible anymore20:09
irgendwer4711Xubuntu 16.1020:09
knomeirgendwer4711, is it too small with greybird?20:10
irgendwer4711yes, the select button20:11
irgendwer4711only 1 px20:11
irgendwer4711knome: https://s18.postimg.org/404fsnrt5/screen.png20:13
knomeis this a custom/plugin dialog?=20:14
irgendwer4711its reminderfox20:15
knomecould be it that's causing the error20:16
irgendwer4711no, running good on windows20:22
flocculantit's not greybird - same issue with numix20:24
flocculantand adwaita20:25
irgendwer4711yes20:25
knomewindows is completely different, so can't be compared here, and doesn't help debug the issue on linux20:26
knometo me it looks like reminderfox is doing something weird with the placement or something, and themes aren't prepared for that custom stuff20:26
irgendwer4711I try it on a Linux Mint20:27
irgendwer4711It is working correct on twm.20:30
Israphelif I manually lock my screen, can I avoid it fading to black and just see my login screen instead?20:36
irgendwer4711http://www.reminderfox.org/documentation-faq-troubleshooting/#r320:38
flocculantirgendwer4711: similar to this from last Friday - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/reminderfox/RuWh5XE4uAQ maybe ask for help there?20:38
xubuntu64wHi guys, I recently picked up a Thinkpad X61 and was thinking of putting Xubuntu onto it. It's a pretty old laptop but am I right in assuming Xubuntu will work fine?20:39
xubuntu64wI've stuck a 240GB SSD I had lying around in there, and there's 3GB of RAM on the machine20:39
knomexubuntu64w, you'll be fine.20:39
irgendwer4711flocculant: he said: "https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/reminderfox/RuWh5XE4uAQ"20:40
IsraphelI use xubuntu with less20:40
xubuntu64wFantastic thanks20:40
irgendwer4711flocculant: "That issue is well known, sorry, but it's not a problem we can solve within Reminderfox. "20:40
xubuntu64wI was thinking about flashing the BIOS to get SATA 3GB/s for the SSD, but I think that's a bit much for me right now!20:40
flocculantirgendwer4711: yes I know what it said, I also said try asking there - obviously people replied, perhaps they will to you - on the other hand you can hang around and see if anyone in channel happens to use this addon that you do20:41
irgendwer4711flocculant: they told to edit the theme.20:42
flocculantwhy do you keep telling me - I read it20:42
flocculantI can tell you that 'fix' doesn't help this issue though20:42
knomethe comboboxes work well elsewhere, and the FAQ mentions they are "dynamically populated", so there's a slight hint to where the problem is20:43
irgendwer4711I wonder why Xubuntu ship broken themes very upgrade20:43
knomeor at least, seems to be20:43
irgendwer4711*every20:43
flocculantcan't help anymore though - never used the addon before and unlikely to again20:43
flocculantirgendwer4711: can't remember seeing you come up while we were testing - perhaps next time you'll check and comment *before* it's too late20:44
knome"broken theme" is debatable, if a custom widget in a browser addon doesn't work, but the regular widget works elsewhere :)20:44
irgendwer4711this problem was reported for Ubuntu und this addon sice 2011.20:44
flocculantwith a heat of 6 affecting 1 person20:45
flocculantanyway - good luck20:46
knomeirgendwer4711, i20:46
knomei'm sorry this doesn't work for you, but especially if the workaround mentioned doesn't work for you, there isn't much we can do20:46
irgendwer4711knome: what about a custom gtkrc? Am I able to overwrite this property?20:50
knomeyou are, but i'm not sure if that works.20:51
knomei don't use the addon either, that is20:52
xubuntu64wsorry guys another stupid/obvious question, what format should I be using on my install usb?21:02
xubuntu64wI'm assuming FAT?21:03
knomeif you don't need to access the data from windows, you don't need to format to FAT.21:05
xubuntu64wm'kay thanks21:05
