| DarkTrick | "Alt+Scroll wheel" for screen zoom triggers a scrolling within mousepad. Is this a system problem or a mousepad bug? | 08:42 |
|---|---|---|
| well_laid_lawn | DarkTrick: if the cursor is in the mousepad window it will have focus so it'll scroll | 08:46 |
| DarkTrick | well_laid_lawn, you say "it will scroll". Do you mean "it is expected to scroll" ? | 08:54 |
| well_laid_lawn | if mouusepad has focus with the cursor in it then yes | 08:56 |
| well_laid_lawn | try making sure the mouse cursor is sitting on the wallpaper not in a window | 08:57 |
| DarkTrick | hm | 08:59 |
| DarkTrick | well_laid_lawn, that would in return mean, that firefox, xfce4-terminal, hexchat and a couple of other apps have a buggy behavior | 09:00 |
| DarkTrick | well_laid_lawn, that being said, I'd say it's much more "natural" if no scrolling would accur... | 09:01 |
| DarkTrick | well_laid_lawn, other system shortcuts also prevent applications to fire their event. Why should alt+mousewheel be any different? | 09:01 |

| unlimiter | How can I make numlock activate on lightdm start? | 15:40 |
| diogenes_ | unlimiter, http://dpaste.com/1R2MAE7 | 15:45 |
| diogenes_ | check that out ^^^^ | 15:46 |
| Noboru55 | diogenes_ hello, the xubuntu install by default xubuntu-core, do u know the difference between the core and xubuntu-desktop? | 15:49 |
| Noboru55 | i was thinking about xubuntu-restricted-extras too. i can play mp3 and i install fonts with other package.. so.. is it really necessary? | 15:50 |
| diogenes_ | Noboru55, don't go around installing things you don't need at the moment. | 15:51 |
| Noboru55 | i wont ^^ | 15:51 |
| unlimiter | diogenes_, it worked just fine. Thanks | 16:00 |
| pikapika | Does the default login screen start after xorg is "ready" or before? | 18:03 |
| raven-14 | Hi. I'm having a pretty annoying issue with Eoan Ermine. Is this the right place for seeking help? | 18:49 |
| gnrp | raven-14: When it is Xubuntu, yes. Just ask your question and if somebody knows the answer, he will tell | 18:54 |
| gnrp | but stay w while a roun | 18:54 |
| gnrp | d | 18:54 |
| raven-14 | Sweet thanks! | 18:55 |
| raven-14 | Installed a xubuntu 19.10 in dual-boot (other is Win10), and simply, after booting once into it, it won't go lemme log in again. As in, after entering my logins, it displays a black screen with a tiny blue square on the top-left. Trying to access console mode from log screen freezes everything. dpkg doesn't see anything wrong | 18:59 |
| diogenes_ | raven-14, installed nvidia? | 19:00 |
| raven-14 | uh, absolutely not. | 19:00 |
| raven-14 | Dangit | 19:00 |
| diogenes_ | raven-14, so after the installation it worked ok? | 19:01 |
| raven-14 | Had to change "quiet splash" to "nomodeset" for the install, but, completely forgot about it afterwards. You're right, it's prolly driver issues | 19:02 |
| diogenes_ | yeah | 19:03 |
| raven-14 | Thanks for the help. Gonna try grabbing the right drivers | 19:07 |
| diogenes_ | no problems, come with a feedback on how it went. | 19:08 |
| FredK | Just booted xubuntu from a usb stick. The xfce terminal is not working and I am lost without it. When started it says Fariled to execute child process (No such file or directory) | 19:12 |
| pikapika | At what point are services started when booting and how do you best disable automatic startup for some selected services? | 19:12 |
| FredK | If that comment was intended for me, things are started as specified from how the USB stick set things up. I'm starting the terminal from the application window. | 19:14 |
| pikapika | No, it's my own question directed to everyone present here. No relation with your issue FredK | 19:15 |
| diogenes_ | pikapika, run: tree | 19:16 |
| diogenes_ | and: systemd-analyze blame | 19:17 |
| diogenes_ | to disable a servuce: sudo systemctl disable servucename && sudo systemctl stop sameservicename | 19:18 |
| pikapika | Thats what I did but | 19:18 |
| pikapika | Does 'disable' mean it would also not be started automatically next boot? | 19:18 |
| diogenes_ | FredK, how did you write the usb? | 19:19 |
| FredK | I used unetbootin | 19:19 |
| raven-14 | @diogenes_ Installed nvidia drivers v.435. Booted and logged. Thanks again | 19:19 |
| diogenes_ | pikapika, yes but some stubborn services also need: sudo systemctl mask servicename | 19:20 |
| pikapika | Ok, thanks | 19:20 |
| diogenes_ | raven-14, you're welcome. | 19:20 |
| diogenes_ | FredK, try writing with etcher. | 19:21 |
| diogenes_ | and check the checksum. | 19:21 |
| pikapika | ...etcher? | 19:21 |
| diogenes_ | yes | 19:22 |
| pikapika | Just out of curiosity, could the checksum test done with a ...uh...simpler tool? | 19:22 |
| diogenes_ | !checksum | 19:22 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 19:22 |
| pikapika | Oh okay | 19:23 |
| pikapika | Just a matter of checksumming the iso file right? | 19:23 |
| pikapika | I thought you were speaking of some test performed post copying the image to usb | 19:23 |
| diogenes_ | first checksum and if all is well then write the iso to usb again but this time use etcher software. | 19:25 |
| pikapika | What tests does etcher provide if any after writing to USB? | 19:25 |
| diogenes_ | pikapika, no tests it's just known to do the things better. | 19:26 |
| pikapika | diogenes_, personally I'd be extremely careful recommending electron anything (or anything that has come from the web background) unless there's no better option. | 19:29 |
| pikapika | Your views might be different but for example it was just a few years ago that the download sizes of say etcher would have been prohibitive to me | 19:29 |
| diogenes_ | pikapika, a recommendation is an advice and it's up to you to either take it or not. | 19:31 |
| pikapika | diogenes_, if recommendation was so harmless, to take an extreme example, people won't have any issues with neonazi propaganda. I am just saying one must understand the consequences and "free advertizing" that are caused due to recommendation. Not forcing anything, just asking you to reflect on some things. | 19:33 |
| FredK | I'm back. Computer crashed. I have not way to make the download of etcher executable on this machine, and on another machine get "./etcher-v1.5.71: line 7 syntax error near unexpected token 'newline'. Perhaps there is something else could try? | 19:58 |
| diogenes_ | FredK, then try gnome-disk-utility to write the iso. | 20:00 |
| FredK | Sorry some how left this page. Still looking for bootable drive ideas, or a way to fix by xfce terminal. | 20:04 |
| diogenes_ | <diogenes_> FredK, then try gnome-disk-utility to write the iso. | 20:05 |
| diogenes_ | only if checksum is ok. | 20:05 |
| csanyipal | Hi, | 21:05 |
| csanyipal | I am using Xubutu current LTS. | 21:06 |
| csanyipal | It seems I removed accidentally a package which is responsible to proper display of Xfce4 Desktop Environment. Windows behaves strange. | 21:08 |
| csanyipal | How can I fix this issue? | 21:08 |
| krytarik | csanyipal: Just do "sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop" | 21:14 |
| csanyipal | krytarik: I am doing it now. Thanks! | 21:14 |
| csanyipal | Finished. I am going to re-login. Bye! | 21:16 |
| csanyipal | Hi again, | 21:34 |
| csanyipal | Still have strange behavior of some window, like the Software applications window, because eg if I scroll down the mouse wheel when over it"s window then the bottom of the window is "rise", or if I scroll with the wheel up then the top of the window descends. | 21:38 |
| csanyipal | Still asking for help here. As I said, I accidentally removed some packages for calibrating the display device. So now I can't see on some windows buttons, but only texts for those buttons. I reinstall xubuntu-desktop already. What else can I do to get back again a stable Xfce4 Desktop Environment? | 22:25 |
| csanyipal | I just did this: 'sudo apt install xfce4'. Maybe this helps me out. | 22:49 |
| csanyipal | Bye! | 22:49 |
