[00:02] <xubuntu41w> ok i'm back.  the login dialog in lightdm (or whatever) is still using 1x scaling.  probably because lightdm doesn't know about scaling settings.
[00:03] <brainwash> the scaling setting in Xfce only affects the session
[00:03] <xubuntu41w> until your session autolocks in which case lightdm uses the proper scaling.  maybe a lightdm these
[00:03] <xubuntu41w> yeah
[00:03] <xubuntu41w> theme
[00:04] <brainwash> I would add GDK_SCALE=2 to /etc/environment and check if that works for the greeter
[00:04] <xubuntu41w> i can still see some ripping in the compositor.  maybe i forgot to turn that on.
[00:04] <xubuntu41w> ok thx
[00:05] <brainwash> you may to restart lightdm
[00:05] <brainwash> may need to
[00:05] <xubuntu41w> is lightdm a service or should I just send it a HUP
[00:06] <brainwash> a service
[00:06] <xubuntu41w> ok
[00:07] <brainwash> restarting it will terminate your graphical session
[00:13] <eris0xff> ok brainwash.  this is me using my own handle.  the fix for the display manager worked.  thx
[00:15] <brainwash> hidpi support still needs quite some work
[00:15] <eris0xff> yeah it's tricky.  linux laptop hidpi / OLED support still needs work.
[00:15] <eris0xff> but it's worth it
[00:17] <brainwash> afk now
[00:17] <eris0xff> one thing i noticed is that the OLED colorspace is so huge that many films / videos are not graded for it.  many dark areas are so black it's scary
[00:17] <eris0xff> ok laterz
[07:18] <swift110> hey
[12:16] <Kats99> Failed to execute command "@@BINARY@@ %u" when i click on vmware icon in the systems tab of xfce
[12:16] <Kats99> it opens tho when i type vmplayer in terminal
[12:18] <brainwash> systems tab is what?
[12:21] <Kats99> in systems tab it shows vmplayer but when i click on it it opens a dialog box saying Failed to execute command "@@BINARY@@ %u
[12:23] <brainwash> you could edit that launcher
[12:23] <Kats99> how
[12:24] <brainwash> menulibre is the app menu editor
[12:25] <brainwash> or you could locate the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications, copy it over to ~/.local/share/applications
[12:25] <brainwash> and edit it with a text editor
[12:25] <brainwash> the Exec= line
[12:28] <Kats99> what do i change in the exec line?? the path ends with %u
[12:28] <brainwash> try "vmplayer %u"
[12:28] <brainwash> or simply "vmplayer"
[12:29] <brainwash> the %u argument is probably used when you select a file to open with vmplayer
[12:30] <Kats99> oh man thank you so so much it works
[12:30] <brainwash> in the file manager
[12:30] <brainwash> great :)
[13:02] <Noboru55> diogenes_ Hello, now i am using 19.10, the screensaver is perfect and works very well... about the startup it takes a few seconds, i mean, after the grub, i need few seconds more than the xubuntu 18.04, and when the desktop starts, the panel took some seconds to show all itens too.. but in general this system is good now
[13:03] <Noboru55> diogenes_ i was testint bleachbit and i forgot to disable the screensaver after minutes, so i got freezy screen, i needed to restart in power button, after turn on the panel was broken... omg i needed to install again the 19.10 because my mistake.. now its ok... xubuntu 19.10 100%
[13:04] <diogenes_> Noboru55, look in session and startup and disable undeeded services: https://i.imgur.com/CiPBXxa.png
[13:04] <diogenes_> also if you don't plan using snaps, do: sudo apt purge snapd
[13:04] <Noboru55> good idea
[13:04] <diogenes_> that will speed up the boot time a bit.
[13:04] <HeadlessHorseman> See also: systemd-analyze blame
[13:04] <diogenes_> yes that one too ^^^
[13:05] <Noboru55> diogenes_ i was taking a look at htop, and the blueman-applet is it the bluetooh? i do not use this, would to turn it off or .. starts off the bluetooth
[13:05] <Noboru55> system-analyze  ?
[13:05] <diogenes_> Noboru55, yes disable it in session and startup as shown in the pic.
[13:05] <Noboru55> ok
[13:05] <Noboru55> where is that systemd-analyze
[13:06] <diogenes_> and as you run: systemd-analyze blame in terminal
[13:06] <diogenes_> you gonna see which services took more time to load, and if you don't need them then you could disable them.
[13:06] <Noboru55> ok, thank u
[13:07] <diogenes_> np
[13:08] <Noboru55> i think i do not need that update notification.. u know we are always doing sudo apt update
[13:11] <Noboru55> ok, restarting
[13:28] <Noboru55> diogenes_ hello. its good now.. i just modified that quit splah with #  i like to see something on the screen when turn on or off the laptop.. i miss the time of lilo boot
[13:28] <Noboru55> diogenes_ do u think that compositor enable uses too much memory?
[13:29] <diogenes_> Noboru55, if you have a well supported graphics card then compositor is a blessing, otherwise it's a curse.
[13:29] <Noboru55> intel graphics
[13:29] <Noboru55> so a curse
[13:30] <diogenes_> for my ivybridge intel graphics, it's quite smooth.
[13:30] <Noboru55> i modified my grub too, i like to see the grub option.. do not know why they turned it hidden
[13:30] <Noboru55> diogenes_ so i will let it enable
[13:30] <Noboru55> ok, its all, got the perfect system to me.. i have a own post installation too in my language of corse, ^ ^
[13:30] <Noboru55> diogenes_  thank you very much
[13:31] <diogenes_> Noboru55, you can do a test, watch the cpu usage with it enabled then do the same test with it disabled, also check the cpu temp.
[13:31] <diogenes_> and you're welcome.
[13:31] <Noboru55> i can, the chrome is the bigger curse anyway
[13:32] <diogenes_> Noboru55, you can try ff with hardware acceleration enabled and see the difference.
[13:32] <Noboru55> better with hardware aceletarion enable.. i did the test
[13:32] <Noboru55> u are right, the compositor can be enable.. its ok
[13:33] <Noboru55> very nice.... can't wait to my wife windows blows with some virus
[13:33] <diogenes_> Noboru55, to enable full hw acceleration it takes a few steps, it's not enough to just tick the box in ff settings.
[13:33] <Noboru55> so Xubuntu there
[13:33] <Noboru55> diogenes_ really ?
[13:33] <Noboru55> diogenes_  did not know that...
[13:33] <Noboru55> diogenes_ where can i find the steps?
[13:34] <diogenes_> Noboru55, run: about:support and see the Compositor section also scroll down and see the hw acceleration section.
[13:34] <diogenes_> you can make a screenshot of the page.
[13:35] <Noboru55> ok
[13:36] <Noboru55> i will do it later, now i need to prepare the the launch .. lunch... something to eat
[13:36] <Noboru55> thank u...
[13:37] <diogenes_> np
[17:48] <xubuntu67w> Hi! I have a problem with osspd. The package is successfully installed, but does not work... After #echo ddsadf>/dev/dsp i recive error of i/o (not permissions!). And in syslog ossp-padsp[ksx:1456]:  ERR failed to connect context, state=5 (Bad state). On Ubuntu 16.04 and Xubuntu 18.04 (i386) it wirks ok. Is there anything anyone can do to help me?
[17:51] <tomreyn> i probably can't help there, but that's probably the same for anyone else unless you state which xubuntu version (and architecture) you *are* using.
[17:53] <xubuntu67w> I tried to compile the program from source, but the result is similar.
[17:54] <xubuntu67w> OH!! Xubuntu 19.10 !
[17:54] <xubuntu67w> amd64
[18:27] <tomreyn> hmm, osspd's code hasn't been touched in 5 years, i suppose this can be a dead project and you'll need to actually use aoss and padsp nowadays
[18:41] <xubuntu67w> Of course I use padsp. But it brings some problems for me.
[19:26] <Noboru55> hello everybody, the xubuntu 19.10 works different of 18.04 in intel graphics cards ?
[19:27] <Noboru55> i was using 18.04 and i had no problem with games like supertuxkart, and now i'm in 19.10 and after a minutes playing the game get some video bugs...
[19:27] <Noboru55> the colours and the car disappears, and weird things...
[19:27] <Noboru55> does someone know something about it ?
[20:24] <likemindead> Anyone using F2FS as their file system with Xubuntu 19.10?
[21:03] <pragmaticenigma> likemindead: you left a little too soon from #ubuntu... I found this article which would caution against f2fs: https://askubuntu.com/a/1182961
[21:06] <likemindead> Thanks!
[21:07] <likemindead> Using ext4 & disabling journaling seems to the the way to go with a SSD?
[21:08] <pragmaticenigma> likemindead: It is more widely supported. Also, if it is a new enough drive, your computer overall is going to be outdated long before you run out of write cycles on that drive
[21:09] <likemindead> Makes sense. Thanks!
