| Pelo1968 | HELP !! | 01:06 |
| bazhang | with what | 01:29 |
| xubuntu78d | hiyas xubuntu folks. gnubee here. trying to figure out how to tell whether my xubuntu install is 64 bit or 32 bit. any suggestions? | 03:23 |
| gr1dl0ck | xubuntu78d: uname -a | 03:27 |
| xubuntu78d | thanks. does i686 mean it is 32 bit? | 03:29 |
| xangua | Yes | 03:32 |
| xubuntu78d | is there some list of terminal commands somewhere on the net? or do I just need to invest in a book? appreciate your assistance | 03:34 |
| xangua | ! Terminal | 03:36 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. In Unity or GNOME, search the dash for "terminal" and press ENTER. Other desktops: Applications -> System Tools -> Terminal (MATE), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 03:36 |
| xubuntu78d | well, I have been using the CLI (terminal). just wondering how to easily learn the commands. XUbuntu 16.04.1 | 03:39 |
| xubuntu78d | will look thru that guide, thanks heaps for your helpfulness | 03:39 |

| Bagira79 | Hello there! | 12:10 |
| Bagira79 | Is there any way to use my pc with an S3 Trio grapics card with Xubuntu? | 12:11 |
| Bagira79 | Is anybody here? | 12:14 |
| knome | no, we're all lurking. | 12:15 |
| knome | oops, i spoiled our cover. | 12:15 |
| Bagira79 | :-) | 12:15 |
| knome | anyway, you can try the live DVD to see if xubuntu works with your computer | 12:15 |
| knome | the graphics card is hardly ever the showstopper... | 12:16 |
| Bagira79 | It doesn't. One half of the screen is dark, and the image on the upper half is also distorted. | 12:16 |
| Bagira79 | My previous motherboard has died. The actual one doesn't have any AGP ports in. | 12:18 |
| Bagira79 | Ok, thans. Happy new year! | 12:21 |
| flocculant | nomodeset from the bootup F6 menu *might* help to boot | 12:21 |
| knome | s3 trio's are really old, right? | 12:22 |
| flocculant | iirc | 12:22 |
| knome | so might be something else affecting this stuff as well | 12:22 |
| Bagira79 | flocculant, would you please explain what to do? | 12:24 |
| flocculant | Bagira79: look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 12:28 |
| flocculant | lunch time here - not really about - that said it might not help anyway | 12:29 |
| Bagira79 | If I try to boot, grub is ok, but after a few mins comes a blank screen with some strange characters. | 12:32 |
| Bagira79 | Good appetite! | 12:32 |
| flocculant | I do have vaague recollection of s3trio being deprecated a while back - drivers seem to be available for 14.04 last | 12:36 |

| _maddy | problem with parole/xfburn on mp3 file: "Could not initialise Xv output", I guess I am missing some package? | 13:54 |
| _maddy | some suggestions on google say to install gstreamer 0.10 plugins (I have gstreamer 1.0 plugins installed) | 13:55 |
| _maddy | or to do "parole --xv false", but that doesn't work | 13:58 |
| xangua | Morning everyone, I've used both Xubuntu and Lubuntu in this old laptop, but I can't suspend | 17:02 |
| xangua | Well I can suspend, but when trying to resume the screen will stay black | 17:02 |
| xubuntu01i | help to shutdown xubuntu 16.04 | 18:08 |
| gr1dl0ck | shutdown -h now | 18:09 |
| gr1dl0ck | oh he's gone | 18:10 |
| flocculant | shutdown at wall then :p | 18:17 |

| urmygoogle | Can this be used for tablet? | 20:19 |
| knome | urmygoogle, xubuntu? no. | 20:32 |
| knome | well, i guess you *can* if you insist, but not really. | 20:33 |
| urmygoogle | Why knome | 20:33 |
| knome | because we don't have any builds suitable for tablets | 20:33 |
| urmygoogle | Which are other option | 20:33 |
| knome | other options for what? | 20:33 |
| urmygoogle | For Linux on tablet | 20:33 |
| knome | i haven't got the answer for that, i don't own a tablet or have been looking for alternatives | 20:34 |
| urmygoogle | Xubuntu supports touch? | 20:34 |
| Artemis3 | more like, is your touch device supported? | 20:34 |
| urmygoogle | Tablet is touch | 20:35 |
| knome | if touching the screen essentially produces a mouse click, yes | 20:35 |
| urmygoogle | Yes | 20:35 |
| Artemis3 | yes try that first | 20:35 |
| knome | urmygoogle, if you have to ask this many questions, then practically the answer is that you can't get xubuntu in your tablet | 20:35 |
| Artemis3 | ok then its a matter of adding a helper add for gestures etc | 20:35 |
| Artemis3 | app | 20:35 |
| urmygoogle | Xubuntu supports drivers internally? | 20:35 |
| Artemis3 | some programs like chrome already have gestures out of the box | 20:35 |
| urmygoogle | What's gestures? | 20:36 |
| knome | urmygoogle, despite your nick, we are NOT your google | 20:36 |
| urmygoogle | Never tried on Google chrome | 20:36 |
| Artemis3 | lol xD | 20:36 |
| urmygoogle | knome: only you have clarified | 20:36 |
| Artemis3 | touchegg is one i think, to add gestures to other apps | 20:36 |
| urmygoogle | I just need touch and click action | 20:37 |
| urmygoogle | Nothing fancy | 20:37 |
| Artemis3 | perhaps other desktops are better suited for touch screens, but i guess you can make xfce usable by tweaking a few things | 20:37 |
| urmygoogle | Xubuntu is desktop? | 20:38 |
| xangua | So using Lubuntu, but I've tried Xubuntu and I can't get suspend to work... Well actually works but when trying to resume the stern | 21:01 |
| xangua | Screen stays black | 21:01 |
| xangua | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1303736 I've tried some "fixes" mentioned the but they are only temporal, next time I reboot I can't resume from suspend | 21:03 |
