[11:00] <kirstenvorket> hi
[11:01] <diogenes_> hi
[11:01] <kirstenvorket> im looking for a pdf program to trim pdf files, several pages at once. On my old notebook I had a very useful one: It would allow me to see the pdf file and with the mouse to trim the margins I dont need, then save
[11:01] <kirstenvorket> sadly , I dont remember its name
[11:01] <kirstenvorket> can you help me?
[11:01] <kirstenvorket> this was on a xubuntu 17.10
[11:03] <diogenes_> kirstenvorket, https://itsfoss.com/pdf-editors-linux/
[11:08] <kirstenvorket> diogenes_, I have alredy googled, Im asking here because I didnt find it surfing
[11:27] <kirstenvorket> right
[11:28] <kirstenvorket> when you find a tar.gz you want to install, in what directory do you install it?
[11:28] <kirstenvorket> there should be a default directory for new programs
[11:37] <Spass> hello kirstenvorket, what program do you want to install? are you sure it isn't in the repos? maybe there's a DEB package for it, or PPA repo, or AppImage for example.
[11:38] <kirstenvorket> Spass, pdfcrop from http://pdfcrop.sourceforge.net/ and no, no in the repos, no deb
[11:38] <kirstenvorket> no ppa either
[11:42] <Spass> yeah, I see it's an old program with only tar.gz available, from what I can see you just extract the files and copy them to the ~/.bin/pdfcrop folder
[11:43] <Spass> making sure "pdfcrop" script is executable
[11:43] <Spass> sorry, pdfcrop copy to ~/.bin/ folder
[11:44] <Spass> I'm just reading the description from here - https://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcrop/files/pdfcrop/PDFCrop%20v0.4b/
[11:47] <kirstenvorket> Spass, do I create a .bin if I dont have any?
[12:11] <gnrp> kirstenvorket: Create it. You also have to add it to your path then if it is not in it yet
[12:16] <Spass> sorry I was AFK, what gnrp said
[12:17] <kirstenvorket> i have to go but ill be back, bacause im not over with this issue
[12:17] <kirstenvorket> bbl
[12:19] <Spass> and I think ~/.bin is added as $PATH by default in Xubuntu, at least that's what I see in my ~/.profile
[12:19] <Spass> if ~/bin = ~/.bin
[13:01] <bigun> buenos días o buenas tardes
[13:02] <bigun> alguien me puede echar una mano
[13:03] <bigun> hice un usb booteable con etcher  pero ahora no me deja escribir en el  y supuentamente cambie la carpeta de dueño y cambie los permisos pero sigue sin dejarme
[14:00] <trying> hi
[14:00] <gnrp> hi
[21:18] <maia> just installed (today) xubuntu 18.10 and something weird is happening. After a while, the mouse starts behaving randomly
[21:18] <maia> like, left click opens a new browser window, or does nothing
[21:39] <gnrp> maia: Did you try xinput to see what is actually sent?
[21:39] <gnrp> sorry, xev
[21:56] <maia> gonna try xinput when it happens again
[22:18] <gnrp> xev, not xinput
