| Noboru55 | brainwash Moning, maybe it's because clear cache, i am not sure, but here the chromium works faster than chrome, i know it doest not have extensions or plugins, and maybe because it the chromium did not broke for while | 12:24 |
|---|---|---|
| Noboru55 | brainwash it's working nice | 12:24 |
| Noboru55 | hope continue working | 12:25 |
| hansh | i have a small 14" laptop running Xubuntu in VMWare, when i connected a large monitor to the laptop and told vmware to go fullscreen, xubuntu correctly resized to fit the entire large screen, but when i disconnected the large display and went back to my laptop 14" and told vmware to resize, the start menu bar is gone.. and even after a reboot, it | 20:52 |
| hansh | 's still gone. how do i get it back ? | 20:52 |
| hansh | (the host OS is windows 10 if that's relevant. also, open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop is installed) | 20:52 |
| gnrp | hansh: Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run `xrandr --auto` | 20:53 |
| hansh | cool hotkey | 20:53 |
| hansh | didn't work, menu bar is still gone | 20:54 |
| hansh | if it has crashed or if its just out of visible screen area, i don't know | 20:54 |
| hansh | i tried it both as the logged in user, and as root | 20:54 |
| hansh | (and in that order) | 20:54 |
| gnrp | hansh: when you try `xfce4-panel -r`? | 20:59 |
| hansh | as user or root? | 20:59 |
| hansh | well tried as user, nothing happened but it returned 0 | 21:00 |
| hansh | tried it as root, now it says "no running instance of xfce4-panel was found, do you want to start the panel?" | 21:00 |
| hansh | guess that means it ran an xfce4-panel as user | 21:01 |
| hansh | after reboot it looks like this now: https://prnt.sc/pyqzt4 | 21:03 |
| hansh | if i tell vmware window to resize, tho, it will go fullscreen | 21:03 |
| gnrp | as a user... When you click on "Report problem", then you should see the error report? | 21:03 |
| hansh | (like just 1 millimeter in any direction) | 21:03 |
| hansh | ... i really wish that was the case | 21:03 |
| hansh | when i press "report", the damn window just disappear | 21:04 |
| hansh | is is supposed to be that way? | 21:04 |
| gnrp | no clue what happens when you run as root... but I would also try adding a new user and logging in with that one (if you cannot just delete the old one shome) | 21:04 |
| Noboru55 | you can disable this message if you want to | 21:04 |
| hansh | Noboru55, i don't really want to disable it, i want to know what it's complaining about | 21:05 |
| Noboru55 | hansh did u tri ctrl+esc to see if the menu opens ? | 21:05 |
| Noboru55 | maybe the screen is not in correct size.. do not know | 21:05 |
| Noboru55 | did u try* | 21:05 |
| hansh | ctrl+esc does nothing | 21:06 |
| Noboru55 | so its gone | 21:06 |
| hansh | can i logout with a hotkey? | 21:06 |
| hansh | err | 21:07 |
| Noboru55 | here i needed to create the logout | 21:07 |
| Noboru55 | in keyboard, second tab there is how to create shortcuts | 21:07 |
| Noboru55 | can u open the settings ? | 21:07 |
| hansh | Noboru55, https://prnt.sc/pyr1v0 | 21:07 |
| hansh | right-click->applications has a logout button ^^ | 21:07 |
| Noboru55 | hansh ah, i disable that.. lol | 21:08 |
| Noboru55 | and i create that shortcut ctrl+alt+ backspace to logout | 21:08 |
| hansh | oh neat | 21:08 |
| hansh | created a new user and logout -> login, | 21:08 |
| hansh | the problem is not present on the new user | 21:08 |
| Noboru55 | solved? | 21:08 |
| hansh | ye | 21:08 |
| Noboru55 | good... | 21:08 |
| hansh | kinda | 21:08 |
| hansh | just.. hope i can fix my main account | 21:08 |
| hansh | instead of switching | 21:09 |
| hansh | well the problem is tied to my account at least | 21:09 |
| hansh | logging back into my main account, and the issue is back | 21:09 |
| Noboru55 | oh | 21:10 |
| Noboru55 | maybe u could try xubuntu 19.10 | 21:10 |
| hansh | does that mean the problem is probably in /home/hans/ ? | 21:10 |
| Noboru55 | because the xfce 4.14 | 21:10 |
| hansh | ah right, forgot to mention, im running 18.04 | 21:10 |
| Noboru55 | i am too | 21:10 |
| Noboru55 | but i.... | 21:10 |
| Noboru55 | i use the xfce 4.14 because it upgrade the panel and i can install xfce4-screensaver | 21:11 |
| Noboru55 | hansh https://www.reddit.com/r/xubuntu/comments/csymjx/how_to_install_xfce_414_on_xubuntu_1804/ | 21:12 |
| Noboru55 | but i not responsible if something gets wrong | 21:12 |
| hansh | haha, i ran rm -rfv /home/hans/.config/xfce4 and rebooted, the problem is gone apparently! :D | 21:13 |
| hansh | "when in doubt, trash all the config files" | 21:13 |
| Noboru55 | lol. its right | 21:13 |
| Noboru55 | i would not like because i do some changes in the panel | 21:13 |
| Noboru55 | but better than nothing | 21:13 |
| hansh | me too but i don't do extensive changes (add workspace switcher and move it to the bottom and resize, but nothing major) | 21:14 |
| Noboru55 | hansh i am not expert, but i woul try the upgrade xfce4.. | 21:15 |
| Noboru55 | as i said, here i use the 4.14 and it has a good perfect screensaver | 21:15 |
| Noboru55 | hansh u can reverse it later.... https://techstop.github.io/xfce-4-14-on-xubuntu-18-04/ | 21:16 |
| Noboru55 | just because your panel problem | 21:16 |
| Noboru55 | hansh if u do it, and the whiskers menu get small icons... i just could fix it rebooing so in synaptic. clicking in update and make changes, aply... | 21:18 |
| Noboru55 | excuse me, going to play supertuxkart | 21:19 |
| hansh | well thanks, but unless the problem comes back, i'm probably just gonna keep it like this until 20.04 | 21:19 |
| Noboru55 | hansh u're welcome | 21:19 |
| xubuntu68w | I prefer dolphin over thunar because it has more functionality. Will xarchiver work with dolphin or do I need to install ark? | 23:42 |
