| teb007est | could someone please help me turn down this brightness on xubuntu just installed it tonight hurting the eyes | 07:02 |
| hans_ | teb007est, on my laptop it's fn+f8 but that may be laptop-specific not sure | 07:08 |
| hans_ | this gives me about 40 MB/s accoridng to atop: dd if=/dev/zero iflag=fullblock status=progress oflag=direct of=/dev/sda bs=10M | 08:11 |
| hans_ | this gives me about 9-10 MB/s accoridng to atop: dd if=/dev/zero iflag=fullblock status=progress of=/dev/sda bs=10M | 08:11 |
| hans_ | also the 2nd dd hangs for a long time in d | 08:12 |
| hans_ | the only difference is that #1 bypass the IO cache | 08:12 |
| hans_ | why is going thru the IO cache so slow? | 08:12 |
| hans_ | hmm, something else's wrong, now they both give about 40MB/s | 08:16 |
| hans_ | can no longer reproduce - also i guess this is what i should expect? http://paste.debian.net/plain/1082131 | 08:27 |
| xubuntu13w | есть кто | 13:22 |
| howdyb_ | Hmm--this must be the input window. | 15:24 |
| howdyb_ | I'm new here, really new to Linux entirely. | 15:25 |
| howdyb_ | I think I really like this distro. I want to find a 2-panel file manager that works with xubuntu. I use Total Commander all the time in Windows. | 15:28 |
| pmjdebruijn | there's midnight commander 'mc' | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | but it's text based, like norton commander used to be | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | and there's gnome commander | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | which is gui based | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | i've never used either | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | so no clue if they're any good | 15:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | I like Thunar just fine, for what little I need from it | 15:30 |
| howdyb_ | I'll check them out. So I just say "sudo apt install gnome commander | 15:31 |
| howdyb_ | spaces included? | 15:32 |
| howdyb_ | Or use synaptic? | 15:34 |
| pmjdebruijn | apt-cache search whatever | 15:35 |
| howdyb_ | Thanks | 15:36 |

| Guest54281 | I have been having the worst time getting vnc/desktop sharing working with 19.04. Vino doesn't seem to be installed by default any more, and nothing wants to connect to the console session (:1); every package wants to start a new desktop for remote sessions. Anyone else figure desktop sharing out and want to consult? | 18:11 |

| pmjdebruijn | Guest54281: what did you do? | 18:13 |
| pmjdebruijn | did you install Vino? | 18:13 |
| pmjdebruijn | as it's still in the repos IIRC | 18:14 |
| Guest54281 | I installed vino, but it starts a new session when I run the server (:2). | 18:14 |
| Guest54281 | That session also didn't start xfce, so I just got the grey background. | 18:15 |
| pmjdebruijn | I've never used vino | 18:15 |
| pmjdebruijn | afaik it's never been installed by default in xubuntu | 18:16 |
| Guest54281 | TigerVNC did the same thing, except the server errored out and wouldn't start after I rebooted the machine. | 18:16 |
| pmjdebruijn | Guest54281: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/434496 | 18:16 |
| Guest54281 | There wasn't a settings panel for it, but it used to be there and configured to join :1 | 18:17 |
| pmjdebruijn | keep in mind that vino was built fo rgnome | 18:17 |
| pmjdebruijn | so you probably need gnome-control-center to be able t oconfigur eit | 18:17 |
| Guest54281 | Right, but it has worked and xfce is built on gtk+ (I thought?) so I didn't expect an issue. | 18:18 |
| Guest54281 | I tried installing the gconf panel, by I think the dependencies are incomplete because it didn't actually pad the Vino panel. Maybe I'll go back and try to get that working. | 18:20 |
| Guest54281 | Or give up on going lightweight and install the Kubuntu desktop. If just never liked Unity. | 18:20 |
| Guest54281 | It's just annoying TigerVNC wouldn't work either. I was wondering if some sort of session lock was applied as a security default or something. | 18:22 |
| pmjdebruijn | huh? | 18:23 |
| pmjdebruijn | sudo apt-get install gnome-control-center | 18:23 |
| pmjdebruijn | that didn't work? | 18:23 |
| Guest54281 | I did the Vino control panel (I forget the package name now), and it did load a bunch of dependencies, but apparently not enough. I'll try it that way. | 18:24 |
| pmjdebruijn | there isn't a vino control panel package at all | 18:25 |
| pmjdebruijn | so I'm not sure, what you're referencing? | 18:25 |
| pmjdebruijn | at least AFAIK | 18:26 |
| pmjdebruijn | as I said, I never used it | 18:26 |
| Guest54281 | I had been tinkering with the config files via nano, but as a side branch I found a thread that gave a package name - something along the lines of vino-config or vino-utils. I closed the tab, and have a *lot* of similar stuff in history right now, so I just tried to find that thread but I don't think it'll be quick. | 18:28 |
| pmjdebruijn | there is no vino-config or vino-utils in ubuntu | 18:28 |
| pmjdebruijn | (or any of it's official variants) | 18:29 |
| Guest54281 | Whatever it was, it existed and installed, but I got this subset of three panels from the control center, none of which was sharing. | 18:29 |
| Guest54281 | Anyway, I will try installing the master control center package - that's a good idea. | 18:29 |
| pmjdebruijn | it'll probably pull in a ton of deps | 18:30 |
| pmjdebruijn | so I'm not sure if it's _that_ good an idea | 18:30 |
| Guest54281 | That's what I was hoping to avoid going the focused route. | 18:30 |
| Guest54281 | I mean, I like KDE, so I could just go that way too, but I was hoping for something lightweight for a headless home media server | 18:31 |
| Guest54281 | Plex and Transmission work just fine, but I need to fix a bunch of my music and Picard needs the GUI, so I need VNC or a more cumbersome workflow. | 18:32 |
