[00:50] Hello [00:50] Is there anyone on [00:50] I am new to Linux [00:50] And I choose Xubuntu as my first distro [00:50] But I have come into a problem [00:51] https://a.cocaine.ninja/iallgd.png [00:51] I do not understand what is going on here [00:51] I do not understand systemV [00:51] Or the secureboot loader [00:52] you'll want all of the updates that are offered for your software [00:53] But, I thought that you manually update yourself? [00:54] you can select to have a remind later if you don't want to update right now [00:55] I understand that [00:56] i guess i don't understand the problem? [01:31] I am just confused as to the systemV [01:31] I am also confused at the secreboot [01:32] Is Xubuntu too really updating? [01:33] Like did you recieve a notifaction to update your software in past week or so [01:33] I need to know if this common [01:33] Sorry my english not the best [01:36] I have choose to just try it [01:36] and accept [01:36] If something happens I will wipe hard drive and install anoth Distro, I have been looking at Gentoo [11:42] hello. Can anyone tell me what the "Indicator Application/Messages/Sound" launchers in Autostart do? They are deactivated by default. Am I missing out on notification balloons from my programs? === d0137__ is now known as d0137_ === akxwi-dave_ is now known as akxwi-dave [12:53] #xubuntu hi [12:55] i am having issues updating, upgrading & installing on my Xubuntu 12.04. i need some help pls === opt9 is now known as Guest8014 [13:51] xubuntu91w: 12.04 went end of life in april 2015, you would be better to back up your data, and install a fresh version of 16.04 for the latest LTS version [14:45] hi, made a bit of a mistake on a fresh install of 16.04 and manually installed libraoffice 5.1 not realizing 5 was already installed, so i uninstalled 5.1 but the menu Items for 5.1 are still in the menu! how do I get rid of the duplicate items that no longer work? [14:48] I've opened the menu editor but it only shows one menu item while 2 show up in the actual menu [14:48] recon_dsk: I wonder if doing purge/reinstall would be the way to go. [14:49] never liked that new menu, feels like my computer thinks i'm an idiot [14:50] did a reboot and the dups are gone, very windows [14:51] ah, good idea [14:52] actually, very poor. seems developers make things worse and call it progress [14:53] reboot to fix things is a real step backwards [14:55] and whats with hiding the names of the applications you using, you should see the mess that kicad shows up as in development, I get 5 menu items that are the same in development and can't even put them in a sub folder [14:56] but in general I love xubuntu [14:58] me too...love how easy it is to customize [14:58] also seems UEFI systems are unable to make bootable ubuntu usb flash drives using UNetbootin , not a xubuntu issue though. [15:00] now, how do i get a "setting" button on a panel [15:06] ok, worked that one out. [15:12] well, very easy install as usual. keep up the good work !!! [15:23] hmm, another little issue, wanted to copy my desktop setup to a new account so copied ./config/xfce/ to the new account home dir, and the icons of menu items where lost [15:43] hmm, quick launcher item properties in panels items properties has some french text?? [15:51] recon_dsk: Out of curiosity, for what launcher? [15:52] quicklauncher (programs with several launcher) [15:52] hmm, and still no brightness widget [15:53] I think should really be one included by default, and redshift would be nice [15:55] recon_dsk: Didn't you say "item properties" there though? [15:57] in configure quicklauncher you get items like "Espace entre les lanceurs" [15:58] only a little thing [16:34] recon_dsk: So it appears LP bug ##179917 has resurfaced, and this fix was never released yet: https://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin/commit/panel-plugin/callbacks.c?id=b4fdc236af82ae690a8638f968924baadff58efc [16:47] krytarik: well kudos for looking it up :) [16:49] I'm off for a bit of game playing, hope the silver surfers at the local mens shed like their new xubuntu desktop. [16:49] o/ [16:49] \o [17:45] Hello, last link on this site is broken http://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/getting-started.html [17:45] It goes to tracker.xubuntu.org instead of dev.xubuntu.org [17:46] indeed, that page is kind of a stub; i'll fix that in the source [17:51] Spass, fix is in the branch, will land in production at some point [17:54] knome: Cool. [22:16] anyone know what can i do with the error "usb 1-5 descriptor read 64 error...." ??? [22:17] noone? [22:19] real time support [22:19] hahhahhhaha [22:20] waited three minutes? [22:20] right, i wonder where you can get that speedy *volunteer* responses. [22:20] go back to your bed [22:21] veninem: I suggest being a bit more friendly if you're looking for folks to help you :) [22:21] veninem: what do you do to get that error? [22:21] installing xubuntu [22:22] and everytime restaring in xubuntu or other distro [22:22] unfortunately you'll have to be a bit more specific [22:22] on what point [22:23] installation is very complicated and a lot of things are going on, when exactly do you get this error? does it make the installation fail? [22:23] when kernel is starting i get these messages (a lot) and after a while it is logging in [22:24] logging in to the live session? [22:24] yes [22:24] Sounds like you have a card reader without any media in the reader [22:24] yes it is an htpc with a card reader onboard [22:25] yeah, it could be a harmless error, but you haven't said what exactly it's breaking [22:25] (or if it's breaking anything) [22:25] yes i think webcam isn't recognize at all [22:25] *z [22:25] recognized* [22:25] so the webcam isn't working, and the error you get is "usb 1-5 descriptor read 64 error...." ? [22:26] or that's your assumption? [22:26] yes error and 71 for examble and some other numbers [22:27] so the best way to debug is to isolate exactly what you're trying to do [22:27] i also get multiply error messages about amd-vi or something [22:28] i think that it has to do soething about the non-support of amd cpus right? [22:28] you've now mentioned installation, other distros and a webcam, so the first thing you want to do is be clear about what exactly you're trying to fix :) [22:28] ...and now amd cpus [22:28] hmm, what non-support? [22:28] you're all over the place here [22:28] ahhaha [22:28] the only amd on my system is my cpu [22:29] yes, and how are amd cpu's not supported? [22:29] my gf card is nvidia [22:29] the brother of my friend's cousin told me so... :D [22:29] right [22:30] let's forget that [22:30] hhaha [22:30] is your webcam the only thing that isn't working? [22:30] i mean not fully supporting [22:30] yes the only [22:30] okay [22:30] and you want to fix that, or? [22:30] yep [22:30] ok, it would have helped if you told that first [22:31] so which webcam is it? [22:31] or if it's integrated, which pc model do you have? [22:31] logitech quickcam 9000 pro [22:32] so... how do you figure out it's not working? [22:33] skype cant find it [22:34] have you enabled video on skype? [22:34] yes but no webcam to select [22:34] I believe currently Skype for Linux doesn't support video [22:34] At least the new one [22:35] that could be the other reason why it doesn't work [22:35] Not sure what version partner repo offers [22:35] is there an alternative with skype servers? [22:36] Uh so you want your cam to work, to use it in Skype? [22:36] yes [22:36] or anything software i want [22:38] i ll do a restart and i ll be back with new results [22:39] It appears both Skype.com and partner repo offer the 4.3 version, not sure if that's the old or the new one [22:47] I always use cheese to test basic webcam functionality [22:49] pleia2, i guess that goes down to basic mouse functionality too then ;) [22:49] lawl
