| glitchd | hello all, looking for a bit of help getting vlc to work correctly. | 00:14 |
|---|---|---|
| Kumool | glitchd: use mpv instead | 00:19 |
| Kumool | vlc is terrible | 00:19 |
| glitchd | thanks, but id rather stick with vlc | 00:21 |
| Kumool | vlc tries to do everything, ends up failing at everything | 00:21 |
| Kumool | its a general rule | 00:21 |
| Kumool | browsers as well | 00:21 |
| glitchd | not in all the time that ive used it | 00:22 |
| glitchd | this is the first real issue ive had | 00:22 |
| Kumool | so whats the issue | 00:22 |
| Kumool | ask that instead | 00:22 |
| glitchd | it plays basically everything and is lightweight | 00:22 |
| glitchd | lol | 00:22 |
| glitchd | right on | 00:22 |
| Kumool | its not lightweight | 00:22 |
| Kumool | but hey, if you like it | 00:22 |
| glitchd | the issue is that either it opens but doesnt show on the screen, or it opens and the interface is unusable because its super-sied on my screen. | 00:23 |
| glitchd | *super-sized | 00:23 |
| glitchd | actually dont even worry about it, im about to reinstall anyways, so ill deal with it when i get back to this point. | 00:23 |
| glitchd | thx anyhow | 00:23 |
| Kumool | super sized? | 00:24 |
| Kumool | mmm | 00:24 |
| glitchd | the gui is extremely oversized | 00:24 |
| Kumool | xfce does remember window dimensions | 00:24 |
| glitchd | so much so that i can access any of the controls, and if i go clicking around on it, it just crashes | 00:24 |
| Kumool | have you tried resizing? | 00:24 |
| Kumool | ah | 00:25 |
| glitchd | yes i have, i can only resize it so small before it stops letting my resize it, but even then its wildly oversized | 00:25 |
| glitchd | not just the window is huge, all the parts of the gui itself or rediculously huge | 00:25 |
| glitchd | but yea im gonna reinstall and hope for a change | 00:26 |

| glitchd | Kumool, so i figured it out | 02:31 |
| glitchd | Kumool, its a qt annoyance basically | 02:31 |
| glitchd | Kumool, to have it launch in the correct size and aspect ratio, i have to use this command: QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 vlc | 02:32 |
| xubuntu84w | hi | 09:20 |
| xubuntu84w | want help on requirements | 09:21 |
| xubuntu84w | i want to replace fedora 9 and file, mail, print servers from a network LAN | 09:21 |
| xubuntu84w | with Xubuntu | 09:21 |
| xubuntu84w | I have pentium 1 GHz and 1 gb RAM machines | 09:22 |
| xubuntu84w | hello | 09:23 |
| xubuntu84w | \O/ | 09:24 |
| Spass | I wanted to change the text file coding from WINDOWS-1250 to UTF-8, seems like Mousepad lacks that feature? | 09:39 |
| well_laid_lawn | Spass: I think that would be a system wide setting not just in mousepad | 09:41 |
| well_laid_lawn | or mousepad uses the system wide setting | 09:42 |
| Spass | Leafpad can do that without a problem using "Save as", then I can choose a specific coding for the file | 09:42 |
| well_laid_lawn | yes I had it wrong - it's what the file is already encoded as that counts | 09:44 |
| Spass | it's not important, but too bad Mousepad lacks that feature, anyway, I'll use Geany (or Leafpad) for that purpose | 09:46 |
| well_laid_lawn | I use leafpad | 09:46 |
| well_laid_lawn | easier to set the tab width | 09:47 |
| Spass | yeah, I was using Leafpad before, maybe I should go back | 09:53 |
| Spass | seems like Leafpad has it's own issue on 18.04, it doesn't work with "pkexec" out of the box | 09:58 |
| Spass | I guess I'd need to manually some policies | 09:58 |
| diogenes_ | Spass, what about: pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY leafpad /etc/environment | 10:12 |
| Spass | not sure, Leafpad is no longer on my system ;) got back to Mousepad, I'll use Geany to change the file coding when needed (so not too often) | 10:14 |
| ubu | I'm trying to learn how to get rid of systemd. | 13:08 |
| Adab | Hello , i have installed xubuntu in my new pc (dell G3 ) , my OS did not detect my hdmi port , can any one helps me ? | 15:26 |
| diogenes_ | Adab, could you pastebin: inxi -F | 15:33 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Hello | 16:49 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Is it ohkay to switch to the development version of Xubuntu for normal usage | 16:50 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | The packages are bit out-dated :( | 16:51 |
| brainwash | aaksjdhjasdj: if you have to ask that, probably no | 16:54 |
| brainwash | are you using 19.04 right now? | 16:55 |
| brainwash | if yes, you will be able to upgrade to 19.10 in like a month | 16:55 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | brainwash I'm using 18.04 Actually | 16:56 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Or else what's your usual method of getting up-to-date packages. lnstfalling build dependencies consumes a lot of space and time. | 16:58 |
| brainwash | depends on what you want to have up-to-date | 17:00 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Hmm, well. text-editors and browsers atleast | 17:00 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Rest all can still be managed. And PPAs aren't that trustworthy right. | 17:01 |
| brainwash | web browsers should be on the latest version anyway | 17:01 |
| brainwash | due to security reasons | 17:01 |
| brainwash | PPAs are managed by 3rd parties, yes | 17:02 |
| swift110 | sup folks | 17:02 |
| swift110 | Client: HexChat 2.14.2 • OS: Ubuntu "bionic" 18.04 • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T5600 @ 1.83GHz (1.83GHz) • Memory: Physical: 2.9 GiB Total (1.3 GiB Free) Swap: 2.0 GiB Total (2.0 GiB Free) • Storage: 0 bytes / 0 bytes (0 bytes Free) • Uptime: 9m 20s | 17:02 |
| brainwash | aaksjdhjasdj: however, often the developers directly offer a PPA | 17:03 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Some of them, and some of them don't | 17:03 |
| brainwash | that is how it is | 17:04 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Anyways, I'll try out the development branch | 17:04 |
| brainwash | good luck with that | 17:04 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | Just was curious to know if anyone uses it as a daily driver | 17:05 |
| brainwash | it's not my main system, but I do use it for development | 17:05 |
| brainwash | you'll get many package updates on a daily basis | 17:06 |
| brainwash | especially if you install a wide range of software | 17:06 |
| brainwash | different toolkits and so on | 17:06 |
| aaksjdhjasdj | I just try it out then. | 17:09 |
