[03:57] <xubuntu73w> hi
[03:57] <xubuntu73w> i am new to ubuntu
[03:58] <xubuntu73w> can any one tell me the basic architecture of Xubuntu
[04:02] <tomreyn> xubuntu73w: hi. what do you mean by "basic architecture"?
[04:03] <tomreyn> the recommended CPU architecture? the major software components of the latest stable release? something entirely different?
[04:10] <xubuntu73w> i know bit about UNIX its root and shell but i dont know how to install network printer on windows machine using ubuntu
[04:11] <xubuntu73w> how to install wifi adapter
[04:11] <xubuntu73w> installation of devices that were plug and play in windows environment
[04:15] <tomreyn> xubuntu73w: most hardware will just work out of the box, thanks to maintained open source drivers. some hardware can be more difficult to get working, such as requiring proprietary drivers, firmware updates. yet other hardware is entirely or mostly unsupported because the company producing it never cared about making linux drivers available, they did but they were of low quality or had licensing issues so no one wanted to maintain them, or the
[04:15] <tomreyn> hardware is considered legacy and there's not enough interest in developing drivers by other means for it.
[04:18] <tomreyn> xubuntu73w: if you configure a printer driver on xubuntu, i think this printer is automatically made available to the LAN. you can easily reconfigure it using a web interface at http://localhost:631
[04:19] <xubuntu73w> Thanks A lot Tomreyn
[04:20] <xubuntu73w> will try web interface for printer
[04:43] <Regor> i have no login/notifications sound in xubuntu 18.04 lts .i have tried all solutions given by users but no success ! though audio works great . i dont want to mess up my installation by hacks  so if anyone has done it please help .
[17:50] <xubuntu22w> I've recently installed Xubuntu 19.04 and Lubuntu 19.04 on a couple of different laptops. The systems are as up to date as possible with kernel, drivers, etc. In our corporate environment, we use Cisco AnyConnect with two-factor. on the Lubuntu system, the certificate is seen by the client, and connections are possible; however, on Xubuntu, despite
[17:51] <xubuntu22w> having the same client, same certificate, identical file/folder permissions/structure in /opt/.cisco/* AnyConnect doesn't see any valid certificates and connection attempts are denied. I can't for the life of me figure out what's different. And, yes, I've tried openconnect; same result.
[17:54] <diogenes_> xubuntu22w, maybe firewall?
[17:54] <tomreyn> IIRC cisco anyconnect has some kind of (optionally enforcable) DRM-like mode where the client needs to execute some binary blob to produce some values and inly if those match what the server expects to see you get to pass.
[17:55] <xubuntu22w> Maybe...? Dunno.
[17:55] <tomreyn> oh well if you haven't ruled out firewalling, yet, then don't bother about my suggestion
[17:55] <xubuntu22w> We're basic two-factor: password/personal cert
[17:55] <xubuntu22w> I'll check the firewall. Not aware of any issue
[17:58] <tomreyn> what i was discussing is referred to as "trojan binary" in the openconnect man page.
[18:01] <xubuntu22w> Ah, I see... Only installed it to meet some dependencies
[18:14] <sublevel> does it log any info about the failure?  if not on the client, maybe the server?
[23:33] <glitchd> is there anyways to have lightdm only show a password box at login, instead of showing a username choice box along with a password box?
[23:42] <tomreyn> i'd be surprised if so. you can choose to skip the login, you can choose to have it list potential system users to login with, maybe even to preconfigure the user account to login to, but only showing the password prompt is porbably not possible, it'd also be very bad security not to expose what a supposed to provide the password for.
[23:43] <Unit193> You can go the other way around, show no list and must type in both (Debian does this by default.)
[23:44] <tomreyn> *what a user is supposed to
[23:46] <Unit193> tomreyn: Password:
[23:47] <tomreyn> mysecretpassword
[23:47] <tomreyn> damn!
[23:47] <Unit193> ..Honestly was expecting 'hunter2'
[23:48] <tomreyn> nah i have that on my online banking already
