[00:24] <RoadRunner> can't get past login in gui; would removing lightdm and installing gdm instead be ok in xubuntu 18.04?
[00:25] <Unit193> gdm only works for GNOME now, so not really.
[00:42] <RoadRunner> after installing xscreensaver and rss-glx got a corruption and now can't login in gui (only in tty). Revoved both of the above packages - no diff. Removed accountsservice, removed, purged and reinstalled lightdm, changed lightdm's config yet still can't get past the login in gui. https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RnqP2GC4gv/ But not sure if the entry "user-session=xubuntu" is the correct one if I am trying to do a custom login.
[00:54] <n-iCe> Hello guys
[00:55] <n-iCe> Been using arch linux with xfce for some days, but always something changes and needs to be fixed.
[00:55] <n-iCe> I was thinking between lubuntu and xubuntu, have used lubuntu for years, and kinda like it, but I think I like xfce now, looks nicer, is xubuntu using a lot more resouces than lubuntu?
[00:55] <n-iCe> or I will not be able to see any difference
[01:03] <n-iCe> sorry
[03:05] <RoadRunner> fixed problem by reinstalling xubuntu-desktop
[03:07] <RoadRunner> it also may have been compounded  by login setting in "users and groups" which was set to requiring login whereas the correct setting at time of system install was set up not to require it.
[04:49] <how2preseed> Hello There
[06:46] <rgk_> good evening
[06:49] <rgk_> i have a question if someone may have some insight. I know and have tried the several "solutions" found on the web with no success. Anyway, the OS does not recognize my sound card in that the audio devices default is set to "Dummy" and does not show any driver.  Some insight will be appreciated - thanks in advance ...
[06:50] <cfhowlett> rgk suggest you ask in #ubuntu for more eyes
[06:51] <rgk_> thanks i will do that as well
[07:11] <well_laid_lawn> !sound
[07:11] <ubottu> If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.
[07:34] <nova_> I'm on a fresh install of 18.04 coming from 16.04.  I can't get thunar to list devices on the network under "Browse Network" though I have this working on my 16.04 system.  Samba is installed and working, smbtree shows the shares.  Most of what I've found on google suggests installing gvfs-smb package, but it's not in the repo.
[07:36] <nova_> Does anyone know how to make it work?
[07:38] <flocculant> nova_: don't use it myself - but have seen issues around the web recently - this might help https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/ubuntu-beaver-samba-shares.html
[07:41] <nova_> flocculant: thank you I'll give it a shot.
[07:42] <flocculant> np - hope it helps :)
[07:59] <nova_> flocculant: no change but thanks for the tip anyway
[08:35] <nikolam> after installing proprietary "Teamviewer 13" into fresh-updated Xubuntu 18.04, and starting TW, it seems it crashes "Status Notifier Plugin"
[08:37] <nikolam> Proprieatery Teamviewer 13.1.3026 have a "preview" picture in the corner of it's window, installed form their 64-bit .deb
[08:44] <nikolam> sending dump that popped up automatically..
[08:44] <nikolam> (as an internal system error)
[09:00] <nova_> flocculant: OK that was the problemafterall.  Recent change due to security issues that Thunar hasn't caught up to yet.  Reverting it back to a less secure setting isn't ideal but it'll have to do for now.

[11:38] <nualias_> Hi my xubuntu 18.04lts is crashing randomly. the reason being nouveau it seems. can someone help me debugging the log and provide some assistance? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/FXrKpswbPp/
[11:42] <well_laid_lawn> I don't see those errors as being noueau related
[11:43] <nualias_> hm i see. when the error occurs i get thrown back to the login screen preceeded by a black screen where something is said about nouveau but its gone too fast
[11:43] <nualias_> is there any other error log I can provide?
[11:44] <well_laid_lawn> the last line suggests a firefox error
[11:44] <well_laid_lawn> when does the crash occur ?
[11:44] <nualias_> thats the strange part.
[11:45] <nualias_> it occurs 100% of all times when I login the first time into my system. and then randomly: noticed it happening when deleting a file, opening the file browser, where it happens prior of the rendering of file icons
[11:46] <nualias_> and other "random" events
[11:46] <nualias_> so I'm puzzled as to where to problem lies
[11:47] <well_laid_lawn> they seem to me to be gtk errors
[11:47] <well_laid_lawn> can you go to a tty and update the os
[11:47] <well_laid_lawn> ?
[11:48] <nualias_> I'm on said system right now.
[11:48] <nualias_> any specific thing I shall do?
[11:48] <nualias_> the system is fully updated via update && upgrade
[11:51] <well_laid_lawn> did you update from an earlier ersion of xubuntu ?
[11:51] <well_laid_lawn> did you update from an earlier version of xubuntu ?

[11:51] <ubottu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories.
[11:51] <well_laid_lawn> just a guess there
[11:52] <nualias_> its a fresh install
[11:52] <well_laid_lawn> k
[11:54] <well_laid_lawn> since no one else has been having this issue I suggest it is local to you - I'd recommend a memory check
[11:54] <well_laid_lawn> !memtest
[11:57] <thief_and_a_liar> let us go out and kill some children everyone
[11:58] <nualias_> well_laid_lawn: hm how do i do that
[11:58] <thief_and_a_liar> let us kill the children in the name of adolf hitler
[11:59] <well_laid_lawn> there is a program called memtest  - the bot used to hae a response for it
[11:59] <well_laid_lawn> !bot

[12:00] <thief_and_a_liar> fuck you guys
[12:01] <well_laid_lawn> I have to head off now - the issue seems to be either with some bad hardware or a corrupted package for some gtk app mabe the xfce panel imo
[12:01] <thief_and_a_liar> I will just have to kill them all myself
[12:01] <thief_and_a_liar> and then I mean all children
[12:01] <thief_and_a_liar> any race

[15:03] <chaslinux> Was hardinfo ever installed by default in Xubuntu or Ubuntu? I seem to recall seeing it in earlier versions.
[15:09] <GridCube> i think it's been part of xubuntu for a few releases
[15:09] <GridCube> not 100% sure as i just upgrade the OS every time
