| roadrunneratwast | hi. i am trying to install the software for my wifi card. for this, i need to first have build-essential and dpkg, or just make. apt-get --print-urls gives me "no candidate for make/build-essentials/dpkg". Do I have to download all dependencies individually from https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/devel/build-essential? I will need to go back and lookup my arch, right? Is there an easier way? | 04:16 |
|---|---|---|
| roadrunneratwast | neever mind. got it | 04:21 |
| Hamilton | I installed i3-wm and somehow dunst replaced the original xfce4-notification. How can I get my original xfce4-notif | 10:30 |
| brainwash | Hamilton: uninstall dunst | 10:31 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, But can I use xfce4-notif in i3wm? | 10:31 |
| brainwash | in? you mean "with" | 10:32 |
| brainwash | sure you can | 10:32 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, thing is, with i3 I have to call my own pactl and xbacklight and the like. But if I use xfce's who controls those stuff? Aren't they part of DE? | 10:33 |
| brainwash | well yeah. Xfce has components to manages various things. | 10:34 |
| brainwash | the pulseaudio panel plugin handles multimedia keys, the power manager reacts to brightness key presses | 10:36 |
| brainwash | xfsettingsd applies many settings (display, themes, etc.) | 10:36 |
| brainwash | i3 is only a window manager | 10:38 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, So I have to write my own notifs with dunst with non-xfce utilities in the i3 config file...Another question | 10:39 |
| Hamilton | How to use Xfce's own locker, light-dm, instead of i3lock since I installed i3 as a new session and it seems improper to have another locker control logging in | 10:39 |
| brainwash | the easiest approach would be to replace xfwm4 with i3 though | 10:39 |
| Hamilton | When I invoke dm-tool lock, it could be bypassed by switching to and back from tty | 10:39 |
| brainwash | you install/use light-locker | 10:39 |
| brainwash | or any other screen locker | 10:39 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, Isn't light-dm a screen locker? | 10:40 |
| brainwash | no | 10:40 |
| brainwash | it's a display manager | 10:40 |
| Hamilton | I mean the one Xubuntu comes with preinsatalled | 10:40 |
| brainwash | that one was light-locker (which is using lightdm-gtk-greeter as unlock interface) | 10:40 |
| Hamilton | When I boot to the login page, what exatly is the name of that program? (From there I can enter password or change session) | 10:40 |
| brainwash | in recent Xubuntu versions we have the new xfce4-screensaver | 10:41 |
| Hamilton | My xubuntu is 18.04 | 10:41 |
| brainwash | lightdm-gtk-greeter is the visual interface for login/unlock | 10:41 |
| brainwash | lightdm is the backend | 10:42 |
| Hamilton | In Xubuntu, screen lock goes to lightdm-gtk-greeter, yes? | 10:42 |
| brainwash | right | 10:43 |
| Hamilton | I want this behaviour in i3wm also. So I don't manage two lockers | 10:43 |
| brainwash | then put "light-locker" in your autostart list | 10:43 |
| brainwash | and use light-locker-command --lock | 10:44 |
| brainwash | to lock the session | 10:44 |
| Hamilton | nice...Can I check it in terminal? | 10:44 |
| brainwash | yes | 10:44 |
| Hamilton | light-locker-command -l | 10:45 |
| Hamilton | ** Message: 15:14:51.621: Received error message from the locker: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver was not provided by any .service files | 10:45 |
| brainwash | you did not start light-locker | 10:45 |
| brainwash | or? | 10:46 |
| Hamilton | exec --no-startup-id xss-lock --transfer-sleep-lock -- i3lock --nofork | 10:47 |
| Hamilton | i3 is starting its own "lock process", right? | 10:48 |
| brainwash | ... | 10:49 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, I did not start light-locker | 10:49 |
| brainwash | why not? | 10:49 |
| Hamilton | Since I fear it ocnfilits with this xss-lock | 10:49 |
| brainwash | if you are unsure, please ask in the i3 channel | 10:50 |
| brainwash | keep in mind that this is the Xubuntu support channel | 10:50 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, ok. In 20.04 light-lock stuff is going to be dropped? | 10:50 |
| Hamilton | with xfce-screensaver? | 10:50 |
| Hamilton | Why? Because of security? | 10:51 |
| brainwash | because of bugs due to how locking with lightdm + lightdm-gtk-greeter works | 10:52 |
| brainwash | mostly caused by graphics drivers | 10:52 |
| brainwash | or when suspending the system | 10:53 |
| Hamilton | brainwash, you are one of the devs? | 10:58 |
| brainwash | no | 10:59 |
| rhode | hi guys | 11:09 |
| rhode | I know that I cat tile windows in XFCE, and already have binding with Super+Left|right to tile Left and right | 11:10 |
| rhode | This gives me a 50% / 50% split of the realestate | 11:11 |
| rhode | Is ther any way in XFCE to resize the windows (like its done in e.g. i3vm) so that a keypress will e.g. reduce left windows by 10% and at the same time increase the right windows by 10% ? | 11:11 |
| roadrunneratwast | hi. i need to install dkms, build-essential, and make on an offline computer. i am now on another linux box that has internet. where can i download a .deb file that would contain these? | 12:09 |
| diogenes_ | roadrunneratwast, you can do: apt-get download package.deb | 12:14 |
| roadrunneratwast | ok thanks | 12:15 |
| diogenes_ | make sure you got dependences too. | 12:16 |
| roadrunneratwast | build-essentials has a ton of dependencies | 12:16 |
| roadrunneratwast | will the apt-get download all of them? | 12:16 |
| roadrunneratwast | i am trying to build the driver for my network card | 12:17 |
| roadrunneratwast | so i need build-essentials, make, dkms | 12:18 |
| diogenes_ | i don'd think so, you can try: a[t-get download pack1 pack2 | 12:18 |
| diogenes_ | apt-get* | 12:18 |
| roadrunneratwast | oof | 12:18 |
| roadrunneratwast | ok | 12:18 |
| Unit193 | See also: apt-offline | 12:22 |
| roadrunneratwast | build-essential deb is just a list, not actual packages | 12:28 |
| roadrunneratwast | just the dependency list | 12:28 |
| diogenes_ | yeah a meta package. | 12:32 |
| roadrunneratwast | when i do apt-get print-uris <package> i receive the message "<package> has no insallation candidate | 12:51 |
| roadrunneratwast | oh. but xenial has build-essentials installed by default? | 13:18 |
| roadrunneratwast | ok. that would be easier | 13:18 |

| CrazyLikeAFox | I seem to have broken packages tht depend on these files | 15:57 |
| CrazyLikeAFox | According to synaptic, I have 3 broken packages: libarpack2, libhdf5-100, and liblapack3 | 16:01 |
| CrazyLikeAFox | If I try to just remove any of them, they list a bunch of stuff dependant on them, especially the 3rd one, which includes stuff that's currently working fine | 16:02 |
| CrazyLikeAFox | hrm, synaptic at least won't let me remove the former two, as the main thing depending on them doesn't work to start with | 16:13 |
| CrazyLikeAFox | with the 3rd package broken still | 16:13 |
