HamiltonI just installed xubuntu 18.04. How to migrate to latest xfce 4.14?15:01
HamiltonIs it even advisable to do so?15:01
KumoolHamilton: upgrade to 1915:02
KumoolI was about to but then I noticed 20.04 will be released in april15:03
Kumoolso just wait a bit and you can get the latest xfce15:03
Kumoolwith some modicum of stability15:03
Kumoolwtf does modicum even mean15:03
Kumooloh, guess I used it correctly15:04
HamiltonKumool, Why thunar doesn't accept themes?15:05
Kumoolthunar accepts themes15:06
HamiltonI copy pasted my xfce 4.04 setting from another laptop to this one and it went so smoothly15:07
Hamiltonoh I meant it didn't went so smooth :(15:08
Kumoolwell, configuring xfce is not so difficult15:08
Kumoolit'll take an hour15:09
Kumooljust configure it normally15:09
HamiltonKumool, Would the upgrade to 20.04 be headache-free?15:10
KumoolI have not upgraded since its not released yet, it will be in april, but ubuntu is relatively stable15:12

HamiltonIf I manually download it to ./themes, would xfce recognize it?15:28

HamiltonWhy is there 2 independent power managers in the taskbar?18:16
HamiltonEach of them has a feature that the other does not have18:16
HamiltonAnd why the icons are so small...I changed the DIP to 150, everything changes except these icons18:18
HamiltonChanging the size, increase *some* icons not all of them18:19
diogenes_Hamilton, you should have started with the beginning of the story about how you end up with a mess like that.18:22
Hamiltondiogenes_, nice name btw...move along I want to see the sun18:23
Hamiltondiogenes_, I just installed xubuntu 18.0418:23
diogenes_yes Alexander, and you preserved thd /home from the previous installation?18:24
Hamiltondiogenes_, No its a clean install18:25
Hamiltondual boot with Win but that is not relevant oh Mighty Master of Stoics18:25
diogenes_Hamilton, but you did a lot of changes, that is not how default looks.18:26
Hamiltondiogenes_, Yeah I did. The point is there is two battery icons (one from xfce4-powermanager and another from Power Manager plugin)..their features are mutually independent18:28
diogenes_go to settings > power manager and untick "System tray icon".18:28
Hamiltondiogenes_, nice18:29
Hamiltondiogenes_, Are you really stoic?18:29
diogenes_Hamilton, kinik.18:29
Hamiltondiogenes_, You Turkish? Still could be Stoic though18:30
HamiltonWhy bluetooth turns itself on on restart?18:30
diogenes_Hamilton, that's kind of a bug but with a simple autostart script it can be set to disable on login.18:32

Hamiltondiogenes_, What about the tray iconssmall size18:32
diogenes_Hamilton, try increasing panel size.18:34
Hamiltondiogenes_, some of the icons increase but most of them stay fixed18:34
diogenes_look in panel preferences > appearance, if that won't help, file a bug.18:36
HamiltonHow can I increase the length of each window on panel?18:36
HamiltonCurrently it doesn't show much of the window name18:36
diogenes_Hamilton, there used to be a hack for panel window buttons to increase the length but i can't remember it.18:38
Hamiltondiogenes_, Thanks18:46
diogenes_no problem.18:46

VulpoHello, I am stuck with having only a single workspace an I can't add any20:52
Vulpotrying to add some from the workspaces menu does nothing20:52
Vulpodidn't even notice I got disconnected22:55
Unit193You want xfwm4-workspace-settings, Vulpo.22:56
Vulpohttps://imgur.com/a/ZP5MrKw22:57
Vulpotried that22:57
Vulpoit says I raised it to 4 and then never actually adds more workspaces22:57
Unit193Well huh, interesting.  I have 2 set for me now, with scoll on the desktop turned on and the little pager in the panel.23:00
VulpoGot it23:04
Vulpoit was because I turned on Compiz23:04
Unit193Ah, that does replace xfwm as compositor. :P23:05
Vulpoyeah lol23:06
VulpoThough i'm still confused as to why Viewports do not work under compiz23:08
Vulpowmctrl -d returns 1280x102423:19
Vulpowhich is my resolution23:19
Vulpobut considering I'm using compiz, it should not be23:19
Vulpoit should be 4x my resolution23:19
VulpoI got it23:46
Vulpoforgot to actually add the viewports23:46
