| xu-help18w | can the panel (taskbar) be moved to the bottom of the page ? | 03:14 |
|---|---|---|
| gnoob | I just figured it out | 03:19 |
| gnoob | go into the panel preferences, then uncheck, lock panel. | 03:20 |
| gnoob | Then on the left side of the panel you can use to drag it with the mouse | 03:21 |
| gnoob | oh, he gone... | 03:21 |
| gnoob | I TRIED!!! | 03:21 |
| nikolam | for some reason, weather-applet wasn't displaying weather data, untill I wnt to properties and then it seems like refreshed data by location and now it works. | 03:56 |
| gnoob | nikolam; is that a question or just a statement? | 05:01 |
| nikolam | I think it is just a statement, since it seems if fixes itself after going to properties.. so it's something like.. semi-bug. Or source have been changed or something about update or just not shutting down system properly etc. | 05:04 |
| gnoob | ah, I see you are calling attention to it. | 05:10 |

| pragomer | Hi. I installed Xubuntu 20.04 on a PC with a Nvidia Geforce GTX1650. In only get 640x480 and the "additional drivers" dialogue shows a "manual installed driver": | 08:31 |
| pragomer | https://i.imgur.com/kWb5Nic.jpg | 08:31 |
| pragomer | Never seen this or happened to me. Any idea what could be wrong? | 08:31 |
| xu-help55w | Hi, I have a problem. Yesterday I had some problems with no sound, so I purged 'alsa-utils', after which I only have artefacts. GUI is all white with weird black artefacts and the CLI on tty1 is black with white artefacts for each character - making any attempts to correct the problem pretty impossible. | 10:16 |
| xu-help55w | So is there a way to get into a CLI without any graphics? | 10:17 |
| anotheryou | Hi. Can I set up keyboard shortcuts to resize windows in a specific way? (e.g. 100% height, 33% width) | 10:36 |
| anotheryou | I don't want to commit to i3 or something, but love a 2/3rd 1/3rd window split sometimes | 10:36 |
| anotheryou | ah and how would I enable multimedia keys? | 11:38 |
| anotheryou | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XfceMultimediaKeys I see no events here | 11:38 |
| diogenes_ | anotheryou, you mean play/pause next/previous volume up/down? | 11:40 |
| anotheryou | diogenes_: exactly | 11:43 |
| anotheryou | diogenes_: volume works on the laptop, but not on my mouse which works fine with other OS' | 11:44 |
| anotheryou | "xbindkeys -k" also sees no event | 11:44 |
| diogenes_ | anotheryou, do you have xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin added to the panel? | 11:45 |
| anotheryou | diogenes_: I think so. I see an audio panel thing | 11:56 |
| anotheryou | sorry for the delay in my reply :) | 11:56 |
| diogenes_ | anotheryou, right click on the panel > panel > Panel Preferences > Items and see if you have the one on the picture: https://i.imgur.com/Ch6rcXJ.png | 11:57 |
| anotheryou | diogenes_: found the setting. It's enabled with the mediakeys checkbox below too | 11:59 |
| anotheryou | still not working though. maybe it's the mouse driver or something | 11:59 |
| diogenes_ | try to follow this workaround how to register the mouse keys if they are pressed and what's the code so try it out: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/106736/detect-if-mouse-button-is-pressed-then-invoke-a-script-or-command | 12:02 |
| anotheryou | ah oh, thanks for the hitns | 12:06 |
| anotheryou | hints | 12:06 |
| anotheryou | so... | 12:06 |
| anotheryou | the mouse (also) registers as a keyboard, I see that, but it doesn't have any keys "down" when I hit the media keys. I assume I need to assign a keyboard model with media keys to it. Do you know how? | 12:06 |
| diogenes_ | anotheryou, Settings > Keyboard > Application Shortcuts > Add | 12:09 |
| anotheryou | diogenes_: again doesn't register any keybresses | 12:10 |
| anotheryou | presses | 12:10 |
| anotheryou | well.. it's a comfort thing. I guess I can map something to my real keyboard | 12:11 |
| anotheryou | thank you for your help! | 12:11 |
| diogenes_ | you're welcome | 12:11 |
| gnoob | Is it just me or is resising a windows from a bottom corner always hard to do? | 17:47 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, it's hard from any corner | 17:48 |
| gnoob | diogenes_: I can agree with that but the bottom has alway seemed worse. | 17:50 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, as a test you can try this: https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1326779/ | 17:52 |
| gnoob | Can i really just click the "Install" from that page and it will install? | 17:56 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, no, download the archive, open settings > icons and drag-and-drop the archive there. | 17:59 |
| diogenes_ | i mean settins > appearance > themes | 17:59 |
| diogenes_ | Style tab and just throw it there then look for it in settings >window manager | 18:01 |
| gnoob | diogenes_: Sorry, I know this should be easy. Under "Appearnce" I see "Style, Icons, Fonts, Settings" | 18:03 |
| gnoob | Style has themes but I can't seem to drag or add any. | 18:03 |
| gnrp | gnoob: I made a shortcut. Alt+Left mouseclick is resizing windows | 18:03 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, ok then unpack it in /home/user/.themes | 18:04 |
| diogenes_ | create .themes folder if it's not there. | 18:05 |
| ziopeppus2 | hi everyone | 18:05 |
| diogenes_ | !hi | ziopeppus2 | 18:06 |
| ubottu | ziopeppus2: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 18:06 |
| gnoob | gnrp: neat, but it seems to be Alt+right mouseclick? | 18:08 |
| gnoob | diogenes_: OK, I have it installed. :) finally | 18:22 |
| gnrp | gnoob: Ah, yes, sorry | 18:22 |
| gnrp | left is movin | 18:22 |
| gnoob | gnrp: that them does seem to grab better. | 18:22 |
| diogenes_ | gnrp, so it works better? | 18:23 |
| diogenes_ | sorry gnoob | 18:23 |
| gnoob | diogenes_: yes, that does seem better. The corners of the windows are a little jaged. Otherwise it looks nice. | 18:25 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, there are a few more good ones. | 18:26 |
| gnoob | I'll need to browns through that page. | 18:28 |
| gnoob | brows | 18:28 |
| diogenes_ | gnoob, this one is good too: https://www.xfce-look.org/p/1311035/ | 18:30 |
| gnoob | that's kinda nice. It changed my borders but not the windows colors. I guess Aspect did the same thing. | 18:35 |
| gnoob | I am running xubuntu as a persistant USB drive. I am having an issue where whenever my laptop wakes up after being idle I have to press "Windows-key + P" to change the display back to the 2nd monitor. | 20:07 |
