nikolamIs there a way for a new Xubuntu windows manager, not to have those so thin edges on lower parts of the window, by default?06:55
nikolamIt is driving me crazy that I can't widen window by dragging it for the lower right or lower left edge, because window manager theme is so badly made to leave jus one pixel or something for cursor arrow to change , so I can drag window edge and change windows size..06:56
nikolamIt is SO frustrating06:56
nikolamLike any other OS or windows manager I used, by default could be easily resized pulling lower left or lower right part of the window06:57
nikolamOn Xubuntu, it seems it is intentionally cre*ed up by selecting non wuncional window manager theme to disable easy resize of the windows..06:58
nikolamI really really don't care to saving a few pixels per window, on 1920X1080 screen, but really appreciate being able to resize windows by default..06:59
nikolamIs there a way to change or edit default window manager theme in Xubuntu, so that window resize functionality is actually working by default..07:00
diogenes_nikolam, yes you can.07:00
Unit193Whilt it doesn't answer your question, alt+right click and drag to resize might do, but that does involve both hands.07:02
diogenes_there are xfwm4 themes with thick borders.07:03
nikolamBut by default, for many releases Xubuntu default theme is broken by doing it just with the mouse in the corner. That's what most of new people actually do when they have their firs contct with the system.07:04
nikolamI used to change WM theme every time, but there is no default theme with such wider window parts to be able to resize it07:04
nikolamThanks for tip, Unit193 but I didn't know that till now.07:05
nikolamdiogenes_, would be great if deafult theme have such functionality by default so that people ar enot turned off from the whole OS07:05
nikolamThey figure, I can't even resize window in this thing..07:06
nikolamAnd they are right.07:06
diogenes_nikolam, this  is a good one: https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1311035/07:12
diogenes_and this: https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1326779/07:13
nikolamYeah, they are not one I woudl regularly use, but htanks. Would be great if default theme in Xubuntu just had few more pixels on windows so they can be resized right. If visual thing is important for Xubuntu identity.07:15
diogenes_nikolam, there also used to be a .gtkrc-2.0 hack where you write a piece of code and it makes the edges thicker but i forgot what it was all about.07:18
diogenes_but it's not a xubuntu issues, it's xfce's.07:18
Unit193I'd think theme, really.  As far as others, Numix, Arc, or something else in the archive seems better.07:19

xubuntu69imy installer is not detecting rhe fi partitions properly.08:40
xubuntu69ithe efi partitions08:40
diogenes_xubuntu69i, details.08:41
xubuntu69isingle partition08:41
xubuntu69iand i am reinstalling..08:41
xubuntu69iusing the installers reinstall option.08:42
xubuntu69iif i set the efi partition manually it says not detected08:42
diogenes_xubuntu69i, try the automatic but it will erase all your data.08:43
xubuntu69iah i was hoping there are other options.. does the installer have a text fil for config? maybe i can edit that?08:43
nikolamdiogenes_, why that is an emergency?09:10
diogenes_nikolam, because there is no system requirements mentioned on that link thus, it's misleading.09:12

bernardoHi, I appreciate your help. I have another computer with xubuntu 18.04.4 64bits the sound makes crack. when you play a video or song it stops making crack.as background, I had previously installed version 18.04.1 and the sound card did not make that noise. I followed some tutorials to fix the problem, but it didn't work.I thank you for any guidance18:32
brainwashbernardo: maybe something to do with the kernel version18:50

ubottubernardo: The kernel team supply continuous mainline kernel builds which can be useful for tracking down issues or testing recent changes in the Linux kernel. More information is available at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds22:11
tomreynalso, you're on the !hwe kernel. there's also the 'general availability' kernel (and older kernel image which is also maintained) and there may be a newer hwe-edge kernel.22:14
