xubuntu95whow can I get myscreen to the right colors? greens look like blues,yeellows look like whites09:04
pmjdebruijnwith my screen, you mean your actual monitor?09:05
pmjdebruijntypically (x)ubuntu has no special effect on colors09:05
gnrpxubuntu95w: Sounds more like a defunct cable?09:05
pmjdebruijnwhat graphics card do you have (using which driver), what type of connector are you using to connect the system to the monitor, what type of monitor are you using?09:06

quadratHey, I just installed xubuntu, as I was told that is the 'main' distro for xfce. But right out of the box I have 2 problems (the fist one is in xfce itself, probably?) https://imgur.com/a/VR4nFa9 is there a fix to that? I get that every time I open a new thunar window for the first time22:57
brainwashquadrat: that is a GTK bug22:59
brainwasha new one23:00
quadratoh damn, so no way around it brainwash?23:00
brainwashother than downgrading GTK3? I guess no23:00
brainwashsame bug can be seen in Nemo, Nautilus and probably other places also23:01
quadratand the other one is, I want to use Parole media player, the live iso works perfect, but installed (with all codecs) almost nothing plays23:01
quadratand some vids, with the same codec works, and the next file doesnt23:02
quadratI made sure that gstreamer1.0 plugins are installed (with the ubuntu-restricted-extras) but almost nothing plays23:03
brainwashwhat is the error message?23:04
quadratgive me a sec23:04
quadratmesa: for the -simplifycfg-sink-common option: may only occur zero or one times!23:04
quadratmesa: for the -global-isel-abort option: may only occur zero or one times!23:04
quadratSegmentation fault (core dumped)23:04
brainwashthat is bad23:05
quadrathuh?23:05
brainwasha Segmentation fault is23:05
brainwashthat's a crash23:05
brainwash= bad23:05
quadratwell, how come it works on the live usb?23:05
quadratoh okay :)23:05
brainwashdoes the same happen with "gst-play-1.0 <videofile>"?23:06
quadratwhat package ist that? as the command is not available23:07
brainwashdoesn't it offer you to install the needed package?23:07
quadratno23:07
brainwashProvided by: gstreamer1.0-plugins-base-apps23:08
quadratthanks23:08
brainwashohh mmh23:08
quadrathm?23:08
brainwashdid you install the vaapi gstreamer plugin?23:09
brainwashthis may be problematic23:09
brainwashand not present when using the live iso23:09
quadratit was autoinstalled brainwash23:09
brainwashI would check if removing it helps23:10
quadrat.. yup thanks it works brainwash :)23:11
brainwashso, vaapi support is still somewhat bugged :/23:12
brainwashI saw a bug report for it some time ago23:12
quadratweird, because before that I was on debian, and it worked fine (and I'm pretty sure it was installed)23:12
quadrat(in buster)23:12
brainwashinteresting23:14
quadratwill check it out again on a live usb23:14
quadratbut I thought, with a ryzen + igpu it does makes sense to go ubuntu, just for the newer mesa+kernel23:15
brainwashnewer means new bugs also23:20
brainwashlike the menu bug23:20
quadratwell, that kind of bug, I don't mind too much, the parole thing is more annoying as my cpu fan is spinning faster :(23:21
quadratbut it should not happen too much probably23:21
brainwashquadrat: you could try a different media player23:33
quadratbrainwash, sure, which ones do you want to have tested?23:36
brainwashmpv I guess23:37
quadratsure, probably with vaapi?23:37
brainwashmpv --hwdec=auto <file>23:37
brainwashwith and without23:37
brainwashsee what works best for you23:38
quadratbrainwash, works good, almost no cpu usage23:39
brainwashgreat23:40
quadratbrainwash, about 1-2%23:41
quadratmaybe also to specify h264 main10 profile23:42
