[13:04] <n0b0dy> Hi Guys!
[13:05] <n0b0dy> and Gals of course
[13:05] <n0b0dy> I have something special here.
[13:05] <n0b0dy> Freshly installed xubuntu, very few custom settings.
[13:07] <n0b0dy> with every software that I start via a panel launcher something happens that puts the software in the background, like if ALT-TAB was pressed.
[13:07] <n0b0dy> software starts ok, no problems with execution so far, but it is backgrounded for some reason.
[13:08] <n0b0dy> so imagine: starting editor and you start to type, then you realize that typing is not in the editor window, for some reason the editor is backgrounded, but visible
[13:09] <n0b0dy> starting thunderbird and pressing F5 will not receive new mails, like it did for ten years, because something backgrounded Thunderbird meanwhile and F5 goes nowhere.
[13:09] <n0b0dy> I alays have to actively foreground the started app - what is annoying, of course.
[13:09] <n0b0dy> Now the question is "what then IS in the foreground?" - I do not know.
[13:10] <n0b0dy> I would like t o know: is this a known misbehaviour / bug and how to avoid that OR how can I debug this misbehaviour to understand better what goes wrong?
[13:10] <n0b0dy> thanks for your attention!

[13:18] <n0b0dy> Maybe one thing could help: is there any tool that shows me which app is stealing the foreground?
[13:19] <n0b0dy> by foreground I mean window focus, sorry

[15:04] <akis> hi all. any idea on how can i slim down 16.04 xubuntu? i am running it on an atom intel with only 1gb ram and i would like to start with less of 220 mb ram and i dont want to switch to lubuntu. any idea what apps or procedures can i stop be loading when system boots?
[17:00] <gebruiker> how can I disable Compiz?
[17:15] <gebruiker> back - i missed any potential answers. The questions I have is how do I disable compiz rendering in xubuntu?
[17:34] <Spass> gebruiker: Did you install compiz? Do you want to temporarily disable it or remove it completely?
[17:37] <gebruiker>  Spass no just xubuntu without any addons
[17:42] <Spass> And you want to disable window shadows or something else? Because new Xubuntu doesn't use compiz as default, so if you didn't install it yourself you probably don't have it.
[17:44] <gebruiker> I already ran xfwm4 --replace but it didn't do anything. Am I correct that xfwm4 is just the default? - I would like to minmise resource use further and if disabling window shadows helps that is what I am aiming to do? Advise?
[17:46] <Spass> gebruiker: Yes, Xfwm4 is default so 'xfwm4 --replace' isn't needed. You may disable shadows in the Settings -> Window Manager Tweaks -> Compositor tab
[17:49] <gebruiker> thanks Spass !
