| gijoe3k | Have any of you folks run into weird issues with Xubuntu 19.10(or XFCE or any other Xubuntu) when in multi monitor setups(im using a tv via HDMI) where apps refuse to launch in the primary screen(my laptop screen) and in the secondary screen? | 00:11 |
|---|---|---|
| gijoe3k | Even though i have arandr told to have my laptop screen as the Primary screen... | 00:12 |
| gijoe3k | May have found and option, do any you guys and gals have a current guide to install Compiz with at least xubuntu 18.04? | 01:27 |
| Bashing-om | gijoe3k: compiz I would think as non relevant to xubuntu. ' apt show compiz' >> Gnome desktop environment. | 01:40 |

| TheCoolest[m] | Hey can someone here please help me understand what happens when I set the kernel parameter amdgpu.dc=0 | 05:21 |
| TheCoolest[m] | It seems like it might fix an issue where my computer sometimes kernel panics in its sleep, and with it set like that I can't notice any immediate differences, so I just want to know more about what the displaycore is and what the heck I'm doing. Thanks. | 05:21 |
| TheCoolest[m] | Wait I think I get it. Nvm. | 05:47 |
| BuSdRiVer320 | Hi All! Well done on an excellent distro 19.10 | 07:51 |
| BuSdRiVer320 | I've got a problem. When computer activates screen lock with screensaver, i just get a black screen and cannot unlock again. | 07:52 |
| BuSdRiVer320 | I've switched off screen lock. Any ideas? | 07:52 |
| fiet | BuSdRiVer320: Could it be that your computer entered some energy saving mode that it can't get out of? Like some ACPI event | 07:55 |
| BuSdRiVer320 | Could be, but i have no idea how to find out | 08:02 |
| fiet | Start with disabling it | 08:08 |
| fiet | See if it still occurs | 08:08 |
| BuSdRiVer320 | excuse my ignorance, but how do i disable the acpi? from bios? | 08:27 |
| fiet | Ehm. No. You just prevent it from starting up. Or kill it altogether. | 09:24 |

| Robert74 | Hello. I've got a trouble with Xubuntu 19.10: There's no option "Enable Wi-Fi" inside the network manager applet. May I get help in here or should I ask help in another place? Thanks! | 13:00 |
| gnrp | Robert74: Is your wifi card actually recognized? | 13:11 |
| Robert74 | It wasn't recognized and isn't, but in Xubuntu 19.04 I followed the instructions from https://github.com/cyberkotov/mw300um-linux-driver , and it worked. Now it doesn't work, though the output didn't show any errors. | 13:15 |
| gnrp | but if it is not recognized by the system, then it is not nm-applet's issue | 13:17 |
| gnrp | when you do `/sbin/ip a`, does the wifi device show up? | 13:17 |
| Robert74 | No, it doesn't | 13:19 |
| gnrp | then there is your issue. ;) | 13:21 |
| gnrp | I cannot help you with the driver though. There will be more specialized channels than this one here, though | 13:21 |
| Robert74 | Sorry for bothering, then... Where could I get help? It worked in previous release... So it's possible to make it work in the present one. | 13:22 |
| brainwash | you should contact the person who offers this driver | 13:22 |
| Robert74 | on github? | 13:22 |
| brainwash | well yeah | 13:22 |
| Robert74 | Thank you | 13:22 |

| tempest | Hi :) so other than the fact that you use XFCE instead of Gnome 3 is this distro identical to stock Ubuntu? Thanks for your time | 16:06 |
| diogenes_ | tempest, what do you mean? | 16:11 |
| genii | tempest: Each different variation of Ubuntu comes with a selected suite of applications which are usually written for the backend their particular desktop environment uses. | 16:12 |
| GridCube | tempest: the base of all *buntu flavours is the same, xubuntu comes with xfce and a preset of default software that might or might now coincide with mainbuntu | 16:13 |
| tempest | I guess I'm just mostly concerned that it isn't going to be a huge learning jump for me. I've been using standard ubuntu on a desktop PC but I prefer the look and feel of XFC | 16:18 |
| GridCube | it wont | 16:20 |
| tempest | okay thank you | 16:21 |
| tempest | I need to do a backup then ^^ | 16:21 |
| GridCube | why for? | 16:23 |
| GridCube | just sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop | 16:23 |
| GridCube | and then chose a xubuntu session from login | 16:23 |
| tempest | I've heard bad things can happen if you try to install more than one desktop is that not so? | 16:24 |
| GridCube | I don't think it would, a fresh install is always better, but there shouldn't be a real reason why not just have different desktops | 16:25 |
| GridCube | at much you'll have two text editors? | 16:26 |
| GridCube | like mousepad and whatever gnome uses? | 16:26 |
| GridCube | you could use xubuntu-core and it wouldn't install all the extra software | 16:27 |
| GridCube | https://packages.ubuntu.com/disco/xubuntu-core | 16:27 |
| tempest | so if I installed ubuntu core then xubuntu-desktop would that be the same as installing xubuntu? | 16:29 |
| GridCube | xubuntu-desktop would do all you need, either you have a full ubuntu-core or not | 16:30 |
| GridCube | everything lacking would be got | 16:30 |
| tempest | okay well I haven't quite decided on how to do it yet but it sounds like I have options | 16:54 |
| tempest | thank you very much | 16:55 |
| Ed49 | Hello | 21:15 |
| Ed49 | I need some help regarding the issues of battery draining and heating after closing laptop lid | 21:16 |
| Ed49 | I am running Xubuntu on my Early 2015 13inch MacBook Pro | 21:16 |
| gnrp | Ed49: So the computer continues running, or does it go to sleep? | 21:17 |
| Ed49 | My power management setting says "When laptop lid is closed: Suspend" | 21:18 |
| gnrp | but does it actually suspend? | 21:35 |
| gnrp | oh, he's gone | 21:35 |
