[06:42] hello. is there any xfce app to add a system wide proxy in xubuntu ? [09:27] https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/squid.html sorinello [10:56] tsocks? [11:54] Hello everyone! Anybody know pulseaudio stuff? [11:55] vague questions >>> vague answers ... [11:55] !details [11:55] Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel. [11:58] oh sorry.. I've got a thinkpad R61 with broken jack sensing. I've managed to disable it by removing load-module module-switch-on-port-available from /etc/pulse/default.pa [11:59] but when I reboot or leave standby mode (as you do on a laptop) it automutes the headphone output. I can only then use it by manually turning the output back on using alsamixer [12:02] I've also made a youtube video to show what happens when I don't disable jack sensing [12:02] jones641, suggest you bring all of this to #ubuntu [12:02] more eyes to see ... [12:03] mkay [14:10] omg, I'm so sorry for wasting your time, lol [14:11] it wasn't pulseaudio, it was the intel_hda_powersave option of PowerTOP that broke everything [14:37] Hi all! I have some questions if i may! i am coming from ubuntu mate where from 14.10 i am helping with bug reports in the alfa/beta stages of the releases. i wanna help in any way i can hare. Is there any way to help testing the gtk3 ports of the apps? Is there a tutorial for applets under gtk3? [14:39] APoliTech: take a look here.. [14:39] https://xubuntu.org/contribute/qa [14:41] also if its gtk3 specific contact flocculant here on irc as he is working closely with upstream on testing the new GTK3 apps with Xfce [14:43] we also ran a tester session last friday here on irc... the log files here, and will make good reading https://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/xubuntu-devel/2017/xubuntu-devel.2017-05-12-19.08.html [14:49] i will have a look. Thx for the help === dreamon__ is now known as dreamon [16:20] Hi, I was wondering something..and I highly doubt that there is a way.. [16:21] but is there a way to go to 64bit from a 32bit install without doing a fresh install? [16:46] flocculant: for https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13580 you'll need to patch the code to check for a much higher vte version [16:46] bugzilla.xfce.org bug 13580 in General "Right click Open Link option missing" [Normal,Needinfo] [16:47] since Ubuntu's vte2.91 has been updated but with the pcre2 conversion reverted because we aren't ready for pcre2 in main yet [16:52] jbicha: mmm so it seems [16:53] not particularly good that the change has broken our terminal tbh - #xubuntu-devel is probably a better place to discuss it than here though :) [16:54] flocculant: well, I'll let you pass the message on then :) [16:55] flocculant: as long as xfce doesn't drop the pcre1 code, it looks like it would be a fairly simple patch to maintain for now [16:56] jbicha: really - this is our support channel for suppported version of Xubuntu - hence pointing at the other one :) [16:59] flocculant: yes, I understand now, do I need to repeat my conversation there now or can you take care of it? [17:03] jbicha: I'll take care of it - this time :D [17:46] hello [17:46] playing with Xubuntu [17:46] is there an easy way to increase window border thickness? [17:47] a single setting in UI or text file. I can even use a terminal. [17:54] TheWild: I have no idea but googling "xfce window border thickness" gives all sorts of hits. If no one here has the answer, I'd try there. [17:54] TheWild, https://xubuntu.org/news/window-resizing-in-xubuntu-and-xfce/ [17:55] and in addition to those methods, changing the window manager theme can help [17:56] yeah, I think I'll try changing the theme. [17:57] As the knome's last statement, I changed from Greybird to Greybird-accessibility, it changed the thickness, among other things.. [17:58] the computer I installed Xubuntu on is for my parents that were used to Windows, thus shortcut keys is "no way" and 1-pixel-thick borders are useless. [17:58] * drc forgot about that, or I'd have said so :) [18:28] damn, I thought themes are supposed to have changeable border width, just like changeable title bar height [19:22] Hello there [19:22] I have a question [19:22] I'm on a raspberry pi, and I need to disable underscan. [23:04] Hi all, got a small issue today: My left control key is (all of a sudden) bonded to muting and demuting my audio. Using 16.04.2 and I would like to get back to the normal behaviour of the left control key. So, what did I do wrong and more important: How can I fix this? [23:06] Golfgeo, check your keyboard settings if incidently bound the key [23:09] mrkramps, did try to find it out. It doesn't seem to be "bound" in the usual place (keyboard settings of setting menu) [23:10] Golfgeo, if testing the key in terminal with xev is it still reported as Control_L? [23:11] it is "still" known as the left control key if I check in the keyboard layout chart (onscreen thingy) [23:13] Hello [23:13] Anyone know how reactivate wifi after installation of Xubuntu? [23:13] mekramps, Unsure how to read the output of xev. I'm getting a mappingnotify event [23:14] *mrkramps, sorry for the typo of your name [23:14] xev lists all input events [23:15] keep the small window focused, do not move your mouse and press the single key you want to test [23:16] mrkramps: It's output is (multiples with serial going up by 1 every new line): MappingNotify event, serial 98, synthetic NO, window 0x0, request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 248 [23:21] Golfgeo, actually this key should clearyl report as 'Control_L' [23:22] Ok, it doesn't. So we do have an issue! :D Thought I was going mental here haha [23:22] but i've no ide how to debug this in detail and it might be a hardware issue [23:22] *idea [23:24] One thing I can try to rule out a hardware issue is to relogin with a different account and check if that keybinding is active there as well. [23:24] good idea [23:24] No worries, thanks for your help mrkramps :) [23:24] Golfgeo, have you already tried repluggin the keyboard? [23:25] powercycled the entire machine (hot and cold boots) [23:25] kk [23:25] Will try that right now [23:26] yep, replugged the keyboard and it's still doing the weirdness [23:28] oke, will have to mouse my way to logging out :) One question that's left: where are the config files for keybindings in Xubuntu? or beter what are the config file names for keybindings [23:30] shoud be in ~/.config/xfc4/xfconf [23:30] great! Looking at the settings editor atm it has the xfce4 keyboard shortcuts [23:33] Now that file I can diff with my other user accounts versio [23:33] version that is [23:35] no difference between the two [23:36] if possible testing with another keyboard might be revealing [23:37] will try the logging into the other user account first. Although I'm still browsing the settings editor atm [23:38] Although I'm wondering what the "" key is (as it's called there) [23:38] that's the "windows" key [23:40] ah :) [23:41] that's weird, if I press that one I get the "logout screen" [23:42] On my other machine a single press on the windows screen is mapped to nothing (no reaction from the machine) [23:42] well it shouldn't be mapped to anything alone [23:42] although that key and "r" get's the proper app finder open on that machine [23:43] yea, I'm logging out and checking my other account. I'll be back! :)
