[00:00] <HenryG> I am trying 18.04 to see if this is a VirtualBox issue
[00:01] <Unit193> VBox might not like new ones.  I'd mention you can try Core, but I've heard some having issues with that one VBox too.
[00:04] <tomreyn> could it be anti virus / malware related?
[00:05] <HenryG> So 18.04.4 installed fine
[00:14] <HenryG> After poking around in the VBox forums, it seems that VBox is pretty awful with AMD + Hyper-V (needed for WSL2). I am going to ditch VBox for now and install 20.04 natively on a secondary older PC that I will bring out of retirement.
[04:12] <xu-help1w> hi
[04:13] <xu-help1w> anybody here?
[07:12] <spotracite> Hey I have a question about the install process for Xubuntu 20.04
[07:12] <spotracite> I know in earlier ISO images there was a button I could push that would toggle between a 'minimal
[07:13] <spotracite> and a 'full' install
[07:13] <spotracite> When I tested 20.04 in VirtualBox, it didn't give me such an option
[07:13] <spotracite> Is there an equivalent?
[07:16] <spotracite> Should I just go back to Xubuntu 19.04 or 19.10?
[08:22] <miu5> Hi,  if you backup the ~/.config/xfce4 folder, do the yellow notes (in panel) also get backed up as well? or is there another folder for those?
[08:25] <brainwash> miu5: https://docs.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-notes-plugin#usage
[08:25] <brainwash> could be outdated though
[08:27] <miu5> ah thanks.. its under .local/share
[08:28] <miu5> Also, another question.   I you backup the ~/.config/xfce4 folder from Xubuntu and reload it on Ubuntu Server with Xfce4 environment, would you get the same panels?  I tried it and it seems like its a bit messed up.
[08:32] <brainwash> did you copy the files over before starting the session?
[08:33] <brainwash> and xubuntu installs some extra panel plugins
[08:33] <brainwash> those would be missing in the stock Xfce installation
[08:33] <brainwash> whiskermenu for example
[08:35] <miu5> no, i copied them over while in the session, but then rebooted. most of the stuff was there. except the whisker menu icon turned into a no entry sign, and also the window manager borders got messed up.
[08:35] <miu5> yea also, i see the difference between the 2 preference panels is that in Xubuntu you can back & restore the panels whereas xfce4 doesnt have that button.
[10:02] <Krock> Hello everyone. How do I upgrade from Bionic to Focal? https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/9Pn2HbgtkQ/ - IIRC this worked for upgrading to Bionic.. two years ago.
[10:03] <Krock> Using the "Debian way" from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Upgrades results in a massive count of new packages (2 GiB or so). Is that expected?
[10:03] <diogenes_> !upgrade | Krock
[10:03] <brainwash> the upgrade won't be unlocked until 20.04.1 is out
[10:04] <brainwash> for bionic -> focal
[10:04] <brainwash> and yes, a release upgrade will download and install many new package versions
[10:19] <Krock> thanks brainwash
[10:29] <UpgradeIssues> Hi all, I'm not getting an upgrade notification to go to 20. Am on 19.10, have apt-update/upgraded etc. Am I doing something wrong or is this known?
[10:32] <UpgradeIssues> Anyone here?
[10:34] <well_laid_lawn> UpgradeIssues:  from what I have seen today the option won't be showing until the 20.04.1 release
[10:35] <UpgradeIssues> Alright
[10:36] <UpgradeIssues> Then I'll just patiently wait :)
[10:37] <brainwash> already left
[10:37] <brainwash> well_laid_lawn: that is only true for 18.04
[10:37] <brainwash> because LTS -> LTS
[10:38] <brainwash> for 19.10 it should up very soon
[10:41] <well_laid_lawn> seemed to be his situation then lts->lts
[10:43] <brainwash> "Am on 19.10,.."
[14:53] <pgpfox> Hi, i need help.. I installed lubuntu, and figured out i wanted xfce instead so i installed xubuntu-desktop package. Everything works fine except quite often when im no active at my computer and gets signed out, i cant log in. When i type my password i get sent back to login screen and i cant type anything in the password field..
[14:53] <pgpfox> So i have to reboot my computer to be able to sign in again.
[15:12] <Funky_Bo1is> https://xubuntu.org/screenshots/ <-- The screenshots on there claim to be from 16.04. Maybe they could do with an update? :)
[16:43] <xu-irc15w> Hi all i am wondering realteck RTL8821CE wifi driver not found problem is sloved in ubuntu 20.04
[17:18] <coconut> Anyone here using the vpn app from privateinternetaccess.com ? Is the "pia-linux-2.0.1-04518.run" file compatible with mate desktop ?
[17:19] <diogenes_> compatible with mate desktop ?
[17:20] <coconut> yes... will that installer create a systray menu just like on gnome ?
[17:21] <diogenes_> coconut, how would we know about the mate desktop?
[17:21] <coconut> oops, wrong channel
[17:21] <coconut> sorry
[17:21] <diogenes_> happens
[17:21] <coconut> does it work with xfce though ?
[17:22] <diogenes_> that's actually a question for pia-linux-2.0.1-04518.run developers.
[17:22] <coconut> i see
[18:00] <coconut> PIA says that they are working on supporting more Linux version and flavours. Quote: "We're working on supporting more Linux flavors and versions".
[18:02] <coconut> I hope that they will do that soon... otherwise i would have to choose a different vpn.
[18:02] <xu-help71w> Is xubuntu 20.04 available through `do-release-upgrade` yet?  Currently on 19.10 and doesn't seem to want to update
[18:06] <coconut> Right now they only support Ubuntu 16.04+, Mint 18+, Arch, Debian.
[18:07] <xu-help93w> Hi everybody, I have a problem: After installed Xubuntu, my WinXP doesn’t boot anymore.. When by Grub I select WinXP I get a blinking cursor
[18:08] <xu-help93w> Any solution? T_T
[18:11] <diogenes_> xu-help93w, what xubuntu version and how you installed?
[18:13] <xu-help93w> 18.04 32 bit
[18:14] <diogenes_> how did you do partitioning?
[18:15] <xu-help93w> When I installed the so, i select to install xubuntu in half of the disk where win is
[18:15] <xu-help93w> Xubuntu work fine, the problem is Win
[18:16] <diogenes_> so you picked 'install alonside windows'?
[18:17] <xu-help93w> Yes
[18:20] <diogenes_> can you access the windows partition from thunar? you can opent windows C drive?
[18:21] <xu-help93w> Once installed Xubuntu I can access the data in the C drive normally
[18:23] <diogenes_> ok, run the following command in terminal: sudo blkid | nc termbin.com 9999
[18:23] <diogenes_> share the link.
[18:24] <xu-help93w> I need sometime, I’ve reinstall xubuntu
[18:25] <diogenes_> ok
[18:41] <xu-help93w> I’m rebooting now
[18:43] <xu-help93w> diogenes_ Done, where I get the link?
[18:47] <xu-help93w> https://termbin.com/jxqdp
[19:10] <dispo> time shift works well on xubuntu
[19:10] <dispo> I think time shift should be intergrated into xubuntu live distros
[19:10] <dispo> just like linux mint
[19:26] <diogenes_> xu-help93w, sorry busy atm.
[19:51] <JuJUBee> I am trying to get my laptop to completely blank the screen  after 20 min rather than a screensaver.  I have tried everything, but there is still backlight and a slight glow to the screen.
[19:54] <JuJUBee> I have switch off set to 25 min in Xfce power manager.
[20:17] <diogenes_> JuJUBee, you could try with xorg dpms.
[20:32] <tigerdog> I installed Xubuntu 20.04 without updates during the install.  When the system started gnome-software was present.  When I ran updates, though, it was uninstalled in favor of the "snap store".
[20:34] <tigerdog> that's cool, but gnome-software also queries LVFS for device firmware updates (and it actually found FW than needed to be updated!)  KDE Discoverer has something similar.  What is Xubuntu's equivalent tool for LVFS firmware updates?
[23:34] <xu-irc13w> not that this is a big deal and might seem like a silly question but is there a way to get rid of this tip on the screen about livepatch everytime i do software update and it finishes?
[23:34] <xu-irc13w> like i dont need to be reminded about it all the time heh
[23:35] <xu-irc13w> 20.04 seemed to add this
[23:35] <xu-irc13w> i really wats just curious
[23:37] <Unit193> Perhaps in software-properties you can, I do not know.
[23:38] <xu-irc13w> ah ok like i said no biggie it's just weird that they added that to the dialog box
[23:38] <xu-irc13w> i mean hell most times updating doesnt even need for me to restart anyway
[23:38] <xu-irc13w> doing it manually
