[00:11] <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?
[00:12] <gijoe3k> Even though i have arandr told to have my laptop screen as the Primary screen...
[01:27] <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?
[01:40] <Bashing-om> gijoe3k: compiz I would think as non relevant to xubuntu. ' apt show compiz' >> Gnome desktop environment.

[05:21] <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.
[05:47] <TheCoolest[m]> Wait I think I get it. Nvm.
[07:51] <BuSdRiVer320> Hi All! Well done on an excellent distro 19.10
[07:52] <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?
[07:55] <fiet> BuSdRiVer320: Could it be that your computer entered some energy saving mode that it can't get out of? Like some ACPI event
[08:02] <BuSdRiVer320> Could be, but i have no idea how to find out
[08:08] <fiet> Start with disabling it
[08:08] <fiet> See if it still occurs
[08:27] <BuSdRiVer320> excuse my ignorance, but how do i disable the acpi? from bios?
[09:24] <fiet> Ehm. No. You just prevent it from starting up. Or kill it altogether.

[13:00] <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!
[13:11] <gnrp> Robert74: Is your wifi card actually recognized?
[13:15] <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.
[13:17] <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?
[13:19] <Robert74> No, it doesn't
[13:21] <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
[13:22] <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

[16:06] <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
[16:11] <diogenes_> tempest, what do you mean?
[16:12] <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.
[16:13] <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
[16:18] <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
[16:20] <GridCube> it wont
[16:21] <tempest> okay thank you
[16:21] <tempest> I need to do a backup then ^^
[16:23] <GridCube> why for?
[16:23] <GridCube> just sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop
[16:23] <GridCube> and then chose a xubuntu session from login
[16:24] <tempest> I've heard bad things can happen if you try to install more than one desktop is that not so?
[16:25] <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
[16:26] <GridCube> at much you'll have two text editors?
[16:26] <GridCube> like mousepad and whatever gnome uses?
[16:27] <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
[16:29] <tempest> so if I installed ubuntu core then xubuntu-desktop would that be the same as installing xubuntu?
[16:30] <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
[16:54] <tempest> okay well I haven't quite decided on how to do it yet but it sounds like I have options
[16:55] <tempest> thank you very much
[21:15] <Ed49> Hello
[21:16] <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
[21:17] <gnrp> Ed49: So the computer continues running, or does it go to sleep?
[21:18] <Ed49> My power management setting says "When laptop lid is closed: Suspend"
[21:35] <gnrp> but does it actually suspend?
[21:35] <gnrp> oh, he's gone
