xubuntu6wHi i am having inconsistency in touchpad scrolling on my laptop. xubuntu 18.0414:42
xubuntu6wFor example firefox and whisker menu content scroll in opposite directions14:43
xubuntu6wanyone here.14:45
diogenes_xubuntu6w, did you play with settings here: https://i.imgur.com/PmCG3lE.png14:46
xubuntu6wyes14:47
xubuntu6wi have checked the reverse scroll direction here14:49
diogenes_xubuntu6w, first try to figure out is it only different in firefox vs the rest of the applications or, there are a few more that differ in scrolling directions, if it's only ff that behaves differently then, the problem is obvious.14:49
xubuntu6wit is not only in Firefox, thunar too scroll in same direction as firefox14:51
xubuntu6wlibre writer, whiskar menu, opera, vscode etc scroll in one direction and firefox, thunar, settings in other direction.14:55
diogenes_xubuntu6w, i'd start troubleshooting by creating new user.14:58
xubuntu6wokay14:58

xubuntu63wi previously xubuntu6w and xubuntu-vbn15:31

xubuntu63wlet me see15:34
xubuntu63wnow it works same across apps15:35
xubuntu63wbut i want to reverse the directions!15:35
diogenes_ok so the problem is with the reverse.15:35
xubuntu63wyes15:35
diogenes_what do you get in terminal after running this: apt list --installed | grep synaptic15:37
=== jphilips is now known as jphilipz
xubuntu63wsynaptic/bionic,now 0.84.3ubuntu1 amd64 [installed]xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04/bionic-updates,now 1.9.1-1ubuntu1~18.04.1 amd64 [installed]15:40
diogenes_and the output of this: apt list --installed | grep libinput15:41
xubuntu63wlibinput-bin/bionic,now 1.10.4-1 amd64 [installed]libinput10/bionic,now 1.10.4-1 amd64 [installed]xserver-xorg-input-libinput-hwe-18.04/bionic-updates,now 0.28.1-1~18.04.1 amd64 [installed]15:41
diogenes_xubuntu63w, ok the situation is the following, it's a bug present in some and not in other distros, you can have a look here: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1257515:46
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 12575 in Mouse Settings "Inverted Scrolling Does not Work on GTK+3 applications" [Major,Needinfo]15:46
jphilipzgnrp: i add weekday to mine :D15:46
diogenes_what can you try is to remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04 and reboot but be prepared to have a mouse in case your touchpad won't work.15:47
diogenes_removing xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04 will make your touchpad work with libinput driver so, maybe it will have any improvement but not sure.15:47
diogenes_if after reboot your touchpad won't work then install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-hwe-18.04 back again.15:47
xubuntu63wokay, thank you, and if it do not work should i come back here or there is noting more you can help15:51
xubuntu63wjust want to know should i come back or not15:52
diogenes_xubuntu63w, if it doesn't work then you can go and ask in #xfce, again you go here: https://xubuntu.org/irc/ and in channel name you write #xfce and ask there and also give this bug link.15:53
xubuntu63wokay thank you diogenes_16:01

CyberMentHi, I've been using ubuntu for a while.  I recently switched to xubuntu.  I noticed that vim in the xubuntu shell works differently.  I want it to work just like it does in gnome.  What settings should I change?21:41
brainwashCyberMent: not everyone knows how it works in gnome, so please tell us21:50
CyberMentbrainwash: here's an issue I have on xfce22:00
CyberMentin22:00
CyberMentwhenever I press the backspace button in vim it doesn't delete the characters, it just scrolls through them.  Then when I start typing, it overwrites whatever I have written22:01
CyberMentGnome vim does not do that... does xfce use a different terminal?  Is that the issue?22:01
CyberMentMaybe I should run the gnome terminal in xfce.  Not sure how to do that though.22:05
brainwashyou install gnome-terminal and run it22:08
brainwashother than that, I suggest that you ask in #vim22:09
CyberMentjust installed the gnome terminal, and I'm having exactly the same issue22:10
CyberMentI guess, it's not the terminal after all22:11
jonzenany1 know anything about usb ports   like why devices attached to them just stop working and i have toi unplug and back in to get them back23:56
jonzentried everything i could find about autosuspend   still same23:57
