| friendlyGoat | im not sure if this is the right place to ask but im having a weird issue with Grub. 1: grubs not showing a menu when i boot up xubuntu, it just goes straight to xubuntu. 2: grubs not showing up when i first turn on my computer. it just goes to windows and to get to xubuntu i have to hit F9 and click on it | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| friendlyGoat | i'd like to be shown a grub menu when first turning on my computer so i can choose between xubuntu or windows | 00:03 |
| pikapika | Same friendlyGoat | 00:06 |
| pikapika | except I only have xubuntu on this machine, no windows | 00:06 |
| Makerblaker | Did you install Xubuntu then Windows after? | 00:07 |
| Unit193 | friendlyGoat: Hit 'Shift' right after the post screen, presuming grub is properly installed. | 00:07 |
| friendlyGoat | i installed windows then xubuntu after | 00:07 |
| Unit193 | Also yeah if you installed Windows second, then it'll install to the MBR/UEFI and overwrite grub anyway. | 00:07 |
| pikapika | In my case, you can more or less consider I started from a blank slate | 00:08 |
| pikapika | But yes, same here | 00:08 |
| friendlyGoat | windows is on UEFI and xubuntu on my machine installed to legacy boot order for some reason | 00:08 |
| pikapika | Goes straight to xubuntu without any menu | 00:08 |
| pikapika | I mean | 00:08 |
| pikapika | Not that it matters much now, given that its the only os | 00:08 |
| pikapika | But still | 00:09 |
| Unit193 | You might want to read up on GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE in info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration' too. | 00:09 |
| pikapika | I gotta be sure this is not an error with grub | 00:09 |
| friendlyGoat | im thinking of looking at my MBR file but im a little worried about ruining absolutely everything | 00:10 |
| friendlyGoat | i also saw some stuff about installing grub to EFI? | 00:11 |
| friendlyGoat | im not doing anything without properly reading up but its a bit nerveracking | 00:11 |
| friendlyGoat | gonna log back into here on my phone | 00:19 |
| pikapika | yeah no | 00:19 |
| pikapika | afaik | 00:19 |
| pikapika | if you've done as an mbr installation already then its best to let it be | 00:20 |
| friendlyGoat | back | 00:21 |
| pikapika | Bleatings | 00:21 |
| friendlyGoat | haha hi | 00:22 |
| pikapika | :D | 00:22 |

| pikapika | also | 00:27 |
| pikapika | Are thumbnails suddenly not working for anyone else? | 00:28 |
| pikapika | restarting tumblerd and thunar didn't help | 00:28 |
| pikapika | maybe I should reboot and see idk | 00:28 |
| friendlyGoat | part of me is wondering about fixing my grub problem but another part of me doesnt mind as much and just desires busy work | 00:51 |
| friendlyGoat | im a worker goat | 00:51 |
| friendlyGoat | my set up is kinda streamlined in a stupid way. i manually boot into xubuntu then i take advantage of windows booting by default by using the reboot command to turn off linux and smoothly go into windows when wine wont run something or a game i like isnt ported | 00:53 |
| pikapika | friendlyGoat, have you ever met a friendlyGogoat? | 00:55 |
| friendlyGoat | i havent raised one but i do like them | 00:58 |
| pikapika | ( #xubuntu-offtopic would be better for these kinds of talk) | 01:00 |
| pikapika | nope | 01:35 |
| pikapika | reboot didn't help either | 01:35 |
| pikapika | still no thumbnails | 01:35 |

| xubuntu02w | hello | 21:02 |
| xubuntu02w | I recently upgraded from Xubu16.04 to 18.04. However the Numix theme leaves the Whisker Menu in what looks like the 'Greybird' theme. I have seen others discussing this but not yet found a fix. I can confirm the bug in both AMD64 and i386 versions. Can anyone help me on this? | 21:05 |
| brainwash | xubuntu02w: got a screenshot? | 21:08 |
| xubuntu02w | Standby! | 21:11 |
| xubuntu02w | How do I upload the SS? | 21:14 |
| Spass | you can use https://imgbb.com/ | 21:14 |
| xubuntu02w | https://ibb.co/Zx2Rv6z | 21:15 |
| xubuntu02w | Thanks @Spass | 21:16 |
| Spass | looks like Numix to me, I think that they changed to light styling of that menu some time ago | 21:17 |
| Spass | when you hover over a program in the menu, is the selection background orange? | 21:18 |
| xubuntu02w | Normally, the Numix theme would have the menu dark to match. This changed happened with 18.04 | 21:18 |
| xubuntu02w | yes | 21:18 |
| Spass | yes, because 18.04 probably has a newer numix theme version | 21:18 |
| Spass | well, if it's orange, it's Numix for sure | 21:18 |
| xubuntu02w | It is Numix as found in Xubu's Appearance Manager | 21:19 |
| Spass | yes, Numix GTK theme is in the official repositories, look here - https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=numix-gtk-theme&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all | 21:20 |
| xubuntu02w | I think it is a bug from things I have read. Notice that the default user icon in the Whisker Menu is meant for a DARK theme... | 21:20 |
| Spass | as you can see, much newer version | 21:20 |
| Spass | so it's probably not a bug, it's just a change in the theme, so you can probably talk about it with the numix devs | 21:21 |
| brainwash | xubuntu02w: https://github.com/numixproject/numix-gtk-theme/issues/708 | 21:22 |
| xubuntu02w | @brainwash thanks I already saw that... | 21:22 |
| brainwash | okay | 21:23 |
| brainwash | so, why you still ask here? | 21:23 |
| xubuntu02w | Well, because it seems to be a rough work-around at best. | 21:24 |
| xubuntu02w | I will go if you prefer. | 21:24 |
| brainwash | #708 and the linked #666 issue offer fixes | 21:25 |
| brainwash | you said that there are none | 21:25 |
| brainwash | gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = true | 21:25 |
| brainwash | this one is not what you want? | 21:25 |
| Spass | and your other option (although not a perfect one) is to get the older version from the DEB package from xenial, extract it and put into ~/.themes folder named "Numix-old" or something like that | 21:27 |
| Spass | but since it's old it may not look good on some apps, so I cannot recommend that solution | 21:27 |
| xubuntu02w | It seems like this is something that happened in the change to GTK 3 | 21:28 |
| Spass | and it may still not work with new Whisker | 21:28 |
| Spass | so, solution(s) mentioned on GitHub is a way to go | 21:29 |
| xubuntu02w | Found this... https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13646 | 21:29 |
| ubottu | bugzilla.xfce.org bug 13646 in General "Whiskermenu style classes gtk3 ?" [Normal,Resolved: invalid] | 21:29 |
| xubuntu02w | Thanks for the help | 21:31 |

| Mordoc | xubuntu02w, Are you talking about hiding a peer to peer wifi ssid? | 22:19 |
| Mordoc | A quick bit of Googl'ing suggests this isn't documented anywhere. Have you tried an AskUbuntu search and/or question? | 22:22 |
| xubuntu02w | no | 22:30 |
