[01:28] <kaerhon> hi #xubuntu
[01:29] <kaerhon> do you know if i can display my computer's screen on my phone's and remotely control it?
[01:29] <kaerhon> my goal is playing in bed
[01:29] <kaerhon> lattency isn't an issue for the game i want to play
[01:43] <bazhang> something like the wii U?
[01:44] <bazhang> you most certainly can, not only with software , though
[01:45] <bazhang> what was the game you wanted to play, and is it on your computer or your phone
[01:45] <kaerhon> i don't know if like wii u
[01:46] <kaerhon> i'm just looking for playing to va-11 hall-A remotely x)
[01:46] <kaerhon> the game's on my computer
[01:46] <kaerhon> and i'd like to play it on my phone
[01:46] <kaerhon> the computer runs on xubuntu 16.10, the phone's android
[01:47] <kaerhon> i'm doing some research right now, looking for vnc stuff
[01:47] <bazhang> so it's on a xubuntu OS computer, and you want to remotely play it from your phone?
[01:47] <kaerhon> yeah
[01:47] <bazhang> using the phone as a controller?
[01:47] <kaerhon> as a controller and screen
[01:48] <kaerhon> for playing in the bathroom for instance
[01:48] <bazhang> android phone to xubuntu PC then
[01:49] <kaerhon> yeah?
[01:51] <bazhang> https://www.maketecheasier.com/access-ubuntu-pc-from-android/
[01:51] <bazhang> something like that?
[01:53] <kaerhon> hmm no, i won't be in the same room as my computer's screen
[01:54] <bazhang> I'm not quite sure what you propose to do then
[01:55] <bazhang> you want a game installed on your PC (xubuntu), and not only play it, but also use the android phone as a screen to play it on
[01:56] <kaerhon> yes
[01:56] <bazhang> I doubt any sort of combo of phone could do that
[01:56] <bazhang> it means a two way thing
[01:57] <kaerhon> i was searching for solutions on the vnc side
[01:57] <kaerhon> i don't know, i know nearly nothing about what's possible or not :/
[01:57] <kaerhon> thanks you for helping :)
[01:58] <bazhang> welcome!
[07:45] <eka> hi all, is there a way to open the menu with a shortcut and start typing the name of the app I want to execute? or I have to use something like launchy?
[07:53] <Unit193> Something other than Ctrl+Esc?
[07:53] <Unit193> Alt+F2?
[08:02] <eka> Unit193: that was it... Ctrl+Esc thanks!
[08:02] <Unit193> 'Welcome.
[08:58] <xubuntu63w> hello, I running in to trouble setting up my graphic card on xubuntu 16.04 (quadro k600)
[09:00] <xubuntu63w> I did install the latest driver with crtl-alt-f2, stopping lightdm, running the correct nvidia.run and installed version 375. After restart only 367 and 340 are listed in additional drivers and only at 640x480
[09:01] <xubuntu63w> I also tried to addmode in xrandr but get a  (X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)) error
[09:02] <xubuntu63w> so I'm stuck getting my 1920x1080 resolution
[09:07] <YetAnotherStupid> hello
[09:07] <YetAnotherStupid> I'm struggling to change the Xubuntu behavior so it automatically runs autorun scripts when i mount removable drives
[09:09] <YetAnotherStupid> for example on Ubuntu it will ask me if I want to run the autorun scripts on my USB drive
[09:09] <YetAnotherStupid> here in Xubuntu I've checked everything, browsed all configuration pages and... nothing
[09:09] <YetAnotherStupid> it'll ignore all autorun scripts
[09:10] <YetAnotherStupid> i have to go into the terminal and run them manually every time
[09:27] <YetAnotherStupid> really? nobody?
[09:33] <Unit193> Check the settings in thunar-volman-settings
[09:34] <YetAnotherStupid> everything is checked
[10:50] <p00l3> Hello. I have orage clock in panel and i want to make it transparent since my panel is half transparent but this clock having still grey background.
[10:51] <MarkYisri> Hello, is anyone online here?
[12:11] <knome> p00l3, try one of the other plugins (they can/will open orage too), namely "Clock" or "DateTime" (you'll need to install xfce4-datetime-plugin to get this)
[12:12] <Unit193> Though I believe at this point they are functionally the same.
[12:13] <knome> DateTime gives you a bit more formatting options
[12:13] <knome> and Clock otoh allows you to use an analog clock etc...
[12:13] <knome> but yes, they are very close to each other
[12:14] <Unit193> Waiting for one of them to pick up the gsimple cal feature, you can configure it so when you click it you get more than one timezone in the dropdown.
[12:14] <Unit193> https://dmedvinsky.github.io/gsimplecal/g/scrot2.png
[12:16] <knome> right, but i want two timezones visible on the panel in different colors (:
