[11:17] it seems that /JOIN does not work [11:19] Patitioning using the LV system: does anyone have experience with this. I am partitioning my new disk/ new machine with LV an hope to be able to create new copy partit [11:19] partitions in the future [11:20] i.e. it should be possible to create a copy of the new system right away [11:21] then if the system crashes of sluggs over I could just reinstate the original [11:21] doe anyone actually use this? [13:28] hi I have upstart script with line "exec perl /path/to/my/program/program.pl" but it won't start, any ideas? exec echo "hello" >> test.log" works though [13:34] hello [13:34] is anybody out there (pink floyd) [13:35] silence is golden [14:44] greetings. Anyone here know the root password is when using the livecd? [14:47] or maybe just password needed when using "sudo" [14:51] nah there is no password. should be able to use sudo or sudo su to get a root prompt. [14:51] ohh, thank you [19:18] Hello there. [19:19] I am looking for a bit of assistance and possibly plan to make a bug report [19:25] hi Alex___ whats up? === Alex___ is now known as Alex_Cooper [19:32] Anyone that could help me? [19:34] help with what? best thing to do is just to ask your question/ state your problem.. and it anyone can help they will answer [19:37] Well in Xubuntu 16.10 my tethered mobile samsung rugby which I use to get net constantly reboots [19:37] I tested to see if it was a kernel issue and it was not [19:38] Used an older 4.4 kernel same issue and compiled my own 4.8.5 kernel same issue [19:40] I would like to note this also happens with ubuntu [19:40] It isnt just xubuntu 16.10 its also ubuntu 16.10 [19:41] All previous versions work fine with my cell phone [19:41] Never had an issue with it force power cycling my phone before [19:49] cant help on that one.. over to others [20:08] this bug appered again https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/798770 [20:08] Launchpad bug 798770 in firefox (Ubuntu) "Firefox preferences select boxes too small in some themes" [Undecided,New] [20:09] the select button is not visible anymore [20:09] Xubuntu 16.10 [20:10] irgendwer4711, is it too small with greybird? [20:11] yes, the select button [20:11] only 1 px [20:13] knome: https://s18.postimg.org/404fsnrt5/screen.png [20:14] is this a custom/plugin dialog?= [20:15] its reminderfox [20:16] could be it that's causing the error [20:22] no, running good on windows [20:24] it's not greybird - same issue with numix [20:25] and adwaita [20:25] yes [20:26] windows is completely different, so can't be compared here, and doesn't help debug the issue on linux [20:26] to me it looks like reminderfox is doing something weird with the placement or something, and themes aren't prepared for that custom stuff [20:27] I try it on a Linux Mint [20:30] It is working correct on twm. [20:36] if I manually lock my screen, can I avoid it fading to black and just see my login screen instead? [20:38] http://www.reminderfox.org/documentation-faq-troubleshooting/#r3 [20:38] irgendwer4711: similar to this from last Friday - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/reminderfox/RuWh5XE4uAQ maybe ask for help there? [20:39] Hi 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] I've stuck a 240GB SSD I had lying around in there, and there's 3GB of RAM on the machine [20:39] xubuntu64w, you'll be fine. [20:40] flocculant: he said: "https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/reminderfox/RuWh5XE4uAQ" [20:40] I use xubuntu with less [20:40] Fantastic thanks [20:40] flocculant: "That issue is well known, sorry, but it's not a problem we can solve within Reminderfox. " [20:40] I 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! [20:41] irgendwer4711: 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 do [20:42] flocculant: they told to edit the theme. [20:42] why do you keep telling me - I read it [20:42] I can tell you that 'fix' doesn't help this issue though [20:43] the comboboxes work well elsewhere, and the FAQ mentions they are "dynamically populated", so there's a slight hint to where the problem is [20:43] I wonder why Xubuntu ship broken themes very upgrade [20:43] or at least, seems to be [20:43] *every [20:43] can't help anymore though - never used the addon before and unlikely to again [20:44] irgendwer4711: can't remember seeing you come up while we were testing - perhaps next time you'll check and comment *before* it's too late [20:44] "broken theme" is debatable, if a custom widget in a browser addon doesn't work, but the regular widget works elsewhere :) [20:44] this problem was reported for Ubuntu und this addon sice 2011. [20:45] with a heat of 6 affecting 1 person [20:46] anyway - good luck [20:46] irgendwer4711, i [20:46] i'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 do [20:50] knome: what about a custom gtkrc? Am I able to overwrite this property? [20:51] you are, but i'm not sure if that works. [20:52] i don't use the addon either, that is [21:02] sorry guys another stupid/obvious question, what format should I be using on my install usb? [21:03] I'm assuming FAT? [21:05] if you don't need to access the data from windows, you don't need to format to FAT. [21:05] m'kay thanks === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [23:19] Hi. I upgraded to 16.10 a few weeks ago without problem but today I my updates have stopped [23:22] I get a page full of errors with Sudo apt-get update and the software updates reports to check the internet connection.
