[14:00] <thunder011> i have upgraded my xubuntu to latest verson but it cant also helps
[14:02] <mrkramps> thunder011, any reason why not to use another media player?
[14:02] <mrkramps> there had been different issues with parole over time
[14:03] <thunder011> i am now using vlc media player but i want to use default media player
[14:03] <mrkramps> thunder011, and what exactly does not work?
[14:03] <thunder011> so there is many bugs in parole media player ??
[14:04] <mrkramps> especially seeking seems broken
[14:04] <thunder011> when i use seek bar to skip some time it hangs and close immediately
[14:07] <mrkramps> thunder011, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parole/+bug/1667786
[14:07] <mrkramps> https://bugs.launchpad.net/parole/+bug/1667786
[14:07] <mrkramps> and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parole/+bug/1550444
[14:07] <thunder011> if i uninstall parole player wil it create any problem in system ??
[14:08] <thunder011> yeah
[14:08] <mrkramps> removing parole will also remove the meta package xubuntu-desktop
[14:09] <mrkramps> which is not a problematic things
[14:09] <thunder011> ok thanks
[14:09] <thunder011> :):):)
[14:09] <mrkramps> this meta package just ensures all packages belonging to this desktop environment are installed
[14:10] <mrkramps> if updating to a new ubuntu version it might be a good idea to install this package again, as dependencies might have changed
[14:12] <thunder011> nope i have updated xubuntu but bug is still there
[14:12] <thunder011> currently i am running  16.04.2 LTS
[14:15] <akxwi-dave> teh bug is still there in 17.04 although only on the 32 bit version..
[14:17] <akxwi-dave> i would install a different media player for playing movies.. personally I use VLC which is available in  Software
[14:17] <thunder011> yeah parole player working fine on 64bit
[19:11] <angus_mcgyver> hello, i just installed xubuntu 17.04 - works like a charm. which tv-application can you recommend? i can't get me-tv to compile
[19:24] <bonsaitree> Yes, it turned out that it's screen tearing happening on 17.04. Anyone noticed it and possible fixes? Thanks in advance.
[21:09] <Luis> Can someone help me?
[21:10] <knome> ask the question and find out?
[21:10] <Luis> I can´t connect to wifi in xubuntu
[21:13] <mrkramps> Luis, xubuntu version and wifi chipset?
[21:16] <Luis>  Intel GM965 Express Chipset, Xubuntu 16.04.2 for 32 bits
[21:17] <mrkramps> the former is not a wifi chipset
[21:19] <Luis> sorry, i am a beginner, so I don´t know a lot
[21:19] <mrkramps> buildin wifi device or usb stick?
[21:20] <Luis> buildin
[21:20] <mrkramps> try terminal command lspci
[21:21] <Luis> And then?
[21:22] <mrkramps> have a look at the command's output
[21:24] <Luis> ok, done
[21:27] <mrkramps> you may at leat guess which of the listed devices in the output might be your wifi chip
[21:32] <Luis> Is it the host bridge?
[21:33] <Luis> Forgot it, it isn´t...
[21:35] <Luis> Ok, I think is this one: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g LP-PHY
[21:35] <mrkramps> sounds goo
[21:35] <mrkramps> d
[21:38] <mrkramps> Luis, go to settings and restrcted drivers
[21:38] <Luis> ok
[21:39] <mrkramps> the dialog should show an entry 'Broadcom B43 wireless driver'
[21:42] <Luis> It says they are not available drivers
[21:44] <mrkramps> strange
[21:44] <mrkramps> well, we can try doing this manually:
[21:44] <mrkramps> sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source broadcom-sta-common broadcom-sta-source
[21:44] <mrkramps> and when finished:
[21:44] <mrkramps> sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter firmware-b43-installer
[21:46] <Luis> it says it can´t localize the packages
[21:48] <mrkramps> Luis, first or second command?
[21:48] <Luis> First and second :(
[21:49] <mrkramps> i guess, the multiverse repository is not activated then
[21:52] <mrkramps> Luis, settings → software & updates
[21:53] <Luis> But I had already activated it
[21:53] <mrkramps> and updated the package cache?
[21:54] <Luis> No, because i can´t connect to the internet
[21:54] <Luis> but now i realize i have to connect by ethernet
[21:58] <mrkramps> well, of course … any kind of internet connection might be helpful for installing packages =D
[21:58] <mrkramps> Luis, and check settings → restricted drivers first when connected
[21:58] <Luis> Ok, sorry for making losing your time, I had already solved it, thanks bro :)
[21:59] <mrkramps> you're welcome
[22:09] <Other> Hey all. I have my monitor for my linux box about 7 feet away from me. I want to scale up the desktop so that the menus and icons are big. I don't know whether that's resolution (on a LCD) or a setting in Xfce.
[22:11] <mrkramps> Other, appearance settings i guess, increase font size
[22:12] <mrkramps> or use a custom dpi setting
[22:15] <Other> Ok thanks   font size and tweaking the panel size makes it much better
