=== brainwash_ is now known as brainwash
ddoobbHey guys I'm trying to enable hibernation in Xubuntu, it seems to be disabled by default. Do I just follow the Ubuntu tutorials? There doesn't seem to be anything about Xubuntu out there. New to Xubuntu.04:53
ddoobbI have a problem. I did 'xfce4-session-logout -h'. The system turned off. Now it turns on in exactly the same state everytime, with the browser opened with the same tabs and everything. I reboooted it multiple time. I can also not access the desktop and the panels. What is going on07:19
ddoobbWindows are opening without their title bars07:19
Alinka-malinkai am not sure but how can i speed up the mouse wheel scrolling?08:37
Alinka-malinkaits working slow08:37
brainwashAlinka-malinka: Settings > Mouse09:58
brainwashAlinka-malinka: actually not there. looks like you have to configure separately for your apps if possible, or via this tweak https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/30793210:08
Alinka-malinkaoh damn i am nto sure if i can configure that lol...12:44
brainwashis it a specific application? like, the web browser for example12:46
sia ive added sound notifications for irssi now, can anyone12:49
sia                 mention me and pm me for test pls?12:49
siafdf12:50
siawhat happened12:50
Alinka-malinkayes brainwash for firefox12:52
brainwashAlinka-malinka: in that case you have to modify some setting via "about:config" in firefox12:54
Alinka-malinkaHmmm let me check12:58
Alinka-malinkayes i found it and i did a little modification, but still i am not happy with it, i dont know, its a feeling like i am scrolling it more rather then it moves in screen13:00
Alinka-malinkafor example the touchpad works smoother when i scroll with 2 fingures13:02
brainwashmaybe it depends on what setting(s) you have changed13:03
Alinka-malinkafingers13:03
Alinka-malinkai put 1 and 100013:04
Alinka-malinkai guess i need to find the sweet spot13:04
brainwashthere are several scroll related settings13:05
brainwashif you search for "scroll" or "mousewheel"13:05
pawel_is there a way to switch to the stable channel of xfce on 18.10?13:05
brainwashwhat is the stable channel?13:06
pawel_1.12 i belive13:06
brainwashyou mean 4.1213:06
pawel_yeah13:06
brainwashI don't think you can13:06
brainwashand why you want to do that in the first place?13:07
pawel_4.13 is really buggy13:07
brainwashwhich component?13:07
brainwashthe panel? or the file manager?13:07
brainwashit's possible that workarounds exist13:08
pawel_sometimes plank displays the panel in active apps and also the wisker menu doesnt show the wine menu proper13:08
brainwashisn't that unrelated to xfce 4.13?13:09
brainwashwhisker menu is an external panel plugin13:09
brainwashand plank is not part of xfce13:09
pawel_the plank problem is only recreatable on 4.1313:09
brainwashthat's quite odd then13:10
brainwash18.10 still uses the 4.12 xfce window manager13:10
pawel_xfce-panel is 4.13.313:11
brainwashplank = xfce4-panel?13:11
pawel_no13:12
Alinka-malinkaalso i could not make the wobbly-windows working13:12
Alinka-malinkai enable the plugin13:12
Alinka-malinkabut it dont want to work :-/13:12
pawel_as we speak its happening xd13:12
Alinka-malinkalike this compiz manager is broken or not reacting or something13:12
brainwashAlinka-malinka: not much we can do about that13:13
brainwashpawel_: I guess I don't understand the problem13:13
brainwashpawel_: you mention both plank (dock app) and the xfce panel13:14
pawel_here is a screenshot https://i.imgur.com/JW6wmf1.png13:14
brainwashthat is only plank13:15
brainwashare you sure that your issue is caused by the xfce panel?13:15
brainwashis the plank version still the exact same?13:16
Alinka-malinkaoh thats a a problem, because when i run the ccms --release command it start working, but the windows get frozen, is there any other wobbly-windows feature for xubuntu?13:16
brainwashAlinka-malinka: there is none13:17
brainwashmaybe the KDE window manager can that13:17
brainwashkwin13:17
Alinka-malinkanah it will start lagging my laptop13:17
Alinka-malinkai need it here :-/13:17
Alinka-malinkaanyways thanks13:17
pawel_i use compton for window13:18
brainwashcompton is a compositor13:18
pawel_oh13:18
pawel_im sorry im a bit of a noob13:19
brainwashso, if you want a more stable and better tested xfce environment, you should be using xubuntu 18.04 LTS13:19
brainwashthe goal with 18.10 and 19.04 is to move Xfce to the 4.14 release13:20
brainwashhence, it may be buggy13:20
pawel_yeah13:21
Spasspawel_, that xfce4-panel icon shows on Plank when you open panel preferences, annoying little issue, it occurs on 18.04 too, so 18.10 has nothing to do with it13:23
pawel_oh13:23
Spassyou just need to restart Plank after configuring your panel13:23
pawel_thats the only fix i found for that really13:24
Spassme too, probably it's a good idea to submit a buf report, but I'm not sure if it's a Plank or xfce4-panel issue specifically13:25
pawel_i think that its with how plank detects running applications13:26
Spasswhat comes to my mind worth testing (maybe) is changing "StartupWMClass=" in the desktop launcher of the Panel preferences13:27
Spassgive me a sec13:27
pawel_test13:30
pawel_oh ./nick doesnt work13:30
Spassok I think that I found a workaround, I've added "StartupWMClass=xfce4-panel" to /usr/share/applications/panel-preferences.desktop (Panel)13:35
Spassand now when I close panel preferences icon disappears as it should13:35
Spassyou can try that13:35
Spasshmm, but I'm not sure about it now, even when I revert that change it is still ok, so maybe I need test it after re-log, anyway, it's an old issue and restarting Plank is the only thing I know hat works 100%13:42
pawel_from what i can tell it's fixed13:46
TowelHey, I'm doing an install of xubuntu 18.04 from the live cd. Can anyone tell me what the default creds are? I tried "ubuntu" and "xubuntu" with no password but without any success.18:48
Spasshello Towel, user "xubuntu" without password should work18:50
TowelThanks Spass but it still says "incorrect password." I verified the image sha256sum too18:51
SpassTowel, where exactly you need to enter those credentials?18:51
TowelThere's a login prompt to get to the desktop. It has the only option "Other" selected and a box for username and one for password18:52
TowelI'm a terminal now and it says "xubutnu login:". I tried "xubuntu" with no password without success18:53
Spassso you logged out from the live session, right? if you want to install you can just boot the ISO again18:53
TowelI just clicked "Install xubuntu" from the boot options and that's the screen it came to18:54
Spassso something went wrong18:54
Towelahh okay18:54
Spasstry again, or click Try Xubuntu and install from the launcher on the desktop18:54
TowelGood idea, I'll give that a shot. Thanks!18:55
Spasscool, let us know how it went18:56
Towelwill do :) Doing a quick integrity check first just to make sure everything flashed okay18:56
solidfoxhello, I just switched to xubuntu and it seems I can't find my icon to change the volume (unless I use pulseaudio volume control from the menu) and I also have no way to switch from BuiltIn analog stereo output to HDMI19:21
solidfoxok. so I lost the icon because I switched the panel layout to "GNOME 2". and sound is in the indicator applet19:23
solidfoxanyways. what I really need is to play audio from hdmi19:23
Spasshello solidfox, new sound icon isn't an indicator anymore, xubuntu now (from 18.04) uses xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin19:25
solidfoxSpass: i found it. my PulseAudio volume control window was hiding a tab, because I increased my resolution and DPI19:26
Spassyou should be able to change output in "pavucontrol" settings (PulseAudio Volume Control)19:26
Spassok cool19:26
TowelSpass, I reflashed the image to a USB instead of a microsd card and it worked like a charm. All good now :) Thanks for your help19:28
SpassTowel, good to know :)19:29
