[01:10] When I click "sound settings" via xfce4-panel notification tray's speaker icon I get the following window. http://i.imgur.com/U5gEFca.png I have to 'run' pavucontrol to get to the actual settings, anyone know how to fix that? [05:43] it was a shorten for entire regex string [05:43] sorry wrong channel [07:09] good morning room [07:09] may I ask some support here? [07:13] !ask [07:13] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [07:21] oppss ok flocculant [07:22] I am running Xubuntu on macbook ALUminium and I am experiencing something strange with bluetooth: [07:23] It looks like working out of the box.. but.. when I start the laptop the bluetooth sometimes is loaded, sometimes is not loaded... [07:24] to make it work I simply restart (one or more times till is loaded again) [07:26] I was wondering if there is a way to make it work every time or at least a commandline to load it without rebooting.. [07:33] Xubuntu-Alex: never touched any sort of mac ... but a quick look on the web found this which might help (though old) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook%20Aluminum [07:34] you might want to wait for others, also you could try #ubuntu, at bluetooth level shouldn't be any difference [07:36] flocculant: do you know how to find the name of the device? I'd like to apply the line sugested in your link (sudo hciconfig hci0 reset) but it looks like hci0 is not my device... [07:39] try hciconfig [07:41] http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man8/hciconfig.8.html [07:45] flocculant: thanks a lot... getting into that... [07:45] Xubuntu-Alex: if it doesn't help - I'm not the person to ask about it - got no bluetooth here ;) [07:46] flocculant: lucky man... ;) [07:47] blody bt :s [08:21] how to install [08:21] steam [10:27] Lol what a bug. I booted and there were 2 network-manager icons on the taskbar, and after 4-5 seconds one of them disappeared. Does this mean that there were 2 instances of the network-manager running at startup and the OS is clever enough to kill one of them (if it notice a duplicate process)? [10:30] bonsaitree: one of them was probably an indicator and the other was in the notification area [10:31] unfortunately, this issue occurs pretty often and not only network manager is affected [10:32] Spass:I have seen this, but that was a while ago, maybe 2-3 years ago. Maybe it's a 17.04 issue? [10:33] I have this pretty often on my 17.04 and before on 16.10 [10:33] Also the application menu button is sometimes misbehaving, not recognizing a 'click' [10:33] It will label itself as it should for the action 'click', but not do what the 'click' is supposed to do [10:34] bonsaitree: you mean top-left Whisker Menu? [10:34] Spass:Indeed [10:35] is it related to this bug maybe? https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13509 [10:35] bugzilla.xfce.org bug 13509 in General "Button loses highlight when moving cursor on screen edges" [Normal,Resolved: moved] [10:38] Spass:Nope, a little bit different. In my case, when i click the WM button, the WM button will highlight itself, but not show the actual applications. [10:39] Spass:And if i click again, once or twice, it will then show the applications [10:41] bonsaitree: it's probably related to that bug, unless your issue occurs even when your cursor isn't on the screen edge [10:43] I have the same issue with button highlighting instead of showing menu, but only on specific "pixels" near the screen edge [10:43] Spass:I think that's the case here, too. I think this only happens in the upper left quadrant of the WM circle icon [10:46] Spass:Like it's a border-deciding error or something (loosely speaking, i don't have a clue about graphics programming) [10:47] well, in that case you've just described two of a few little annoyances that I have on my Xubuntu 17.04 now :) unfortunately there's no solution yet, so we have to report bugs and wait [10:50] 1) duplicate icons in the 'tray' 2) Whisker Menu loosing focus on hover [10:53] Spass:Also the graphics glitch is annoying. When i scroll through a website, alt+tab, watch a video (doing anything dynamic), there is a trapezoid-alike shape which appears on the screen. Sometimes it's in the middle, sometimes lower, sometimes higher. [10:55] Spass: http://cosketch.com/Saved/pi1fWNME [10:56] bonsaitree: screen tearing? I think it's a known issue (and maybe there's a solution) but I can't help here, I don't have that problem on my hardware (nvidia gpu) [10:57] but stay here for a while, maybe somebody will help you with that [10:59] Spass:Nope, it's not like screen tearing, the shape of whatever is shown is not shifted. It's only "representing" the image with the trapezoid-alike shape [18:20] how to monitor CPU usage on terminal? [18:21] top or htop [18:23] then in "top" is there a way to get pretty output? The top portion looks quirky === cmb is now known as Guest9943 [20:26] hi everyone [20:26] hello [20:26] hi [20:27] im having trouble trying to install software in to my xubuntu [20:27] my gnome software is not working [20:27] Handreza, you mean software center? [20:28] yes [20:28] Handreza: which Xubuntu version do you have, which software are you trying to install, how are you trying exactly? [20:28] try with synaptic package manager [20:28] hold on please [20:28] i think is 16.04.32 [20:28] I'd just go with "sudo apt install" :) [20:29] Handreza: what does "lsb_release -a" say? [20:29] "sudo apt install" + softwarename ? [20:30] Handreza: if you like GUI use Synaptic to install and search packages [20:30] Handreza: which software are you trying to install? [20:30] I need just to install the presentation software wich comes with libreoffice [20:31] Handreza: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibreOffice [20:31] i dont think its gonna work, since i dont know how to deal with terminal [20:32] Handreza: all yu need to do is typing "sudo apt install " and the name of the package, after reading the link given. [20:32] Handreza, run in termina: sudo apt install synaptic [20:32] also, i do prefer not to install these complete pack [20:33] Handreza: it's called Impress, package name is "libreoffice-impress" [20:33] ok, i will try to do this now [20:33] sudo apt install libreoffice-impress [20:35] but I recommend you to install Synaptic too, it's very simple graphical package manager [20:35] it looks like working.. -) [20:35] 84% [20:36] let me see the result [20:36] Perfect.. [20:37] I really, really apreciat your helping hand my friends [20:38] just one more thing... How can I fix my software center, as it does keeping looping without load anything [20:39] Handreza: I'd try: sudo apt update [20:39] I always help myself by removing this thing from my Xubuntu as fast as possible :) [20:40] that's my fix for gnome software center [20:40] let me see the result after promped [20:41] still looping [20:41] is it ubuntu software center? [20:41] Im trying to install TUX Paint [20:42] xubuntu GNOME SOFTWARE APLICATION [20:43] Its in Brazilian portuguese [20:43] I've heard they're making anew software center something related to gnome fork and the old software center is deprecated [20:43] do know the command line to install TUX Paint? [20:44] Do u know? [20:45] Handreza, I've adviced you more than once and Spass did advice you too, install synaptic and there you can search for software [20:46] how i do procedure after: sudo apt update [20:46] ? [20:47] sudo apt upgrade [20:48] I saw -> 245 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them [20:49] just type in your password [20:49] and let it upgrade [20:54] it was not my password what it did ask me for [20:55] it should have asked for your password [20:55] but it did not [20:55] ok what it did then? [20:56] 245 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them [20:56] then run what it says [20:58] im afraid to say, i got to leave [20:58] but i really thank so much [20:58] 4 your help, so far [20:59] ok take care [20:59] i will be in touch, in order to try to solve the rest of my issues [20:59] ok [20:59] Have u a great day Diogenes [21:00] thank you the same to you
