xu-help5wHello. I need help on my current Xubuntu 20.04.1. That is while I type in any window for example terminal. That window automatically close.04:41
xu-help5wSystem specification : HP pavilion AU111tx Notebook. Synaptic Touchpad, i5 7200u pprocessor. 16GB RAM. 1TB HDD. Nvidia 940MX 2GB chip + Internal IntelHD 620.04:42
gnoobIf I had to speculate a guess maybe one of your alt or ctrl keys or something is acting up.  Have you cleaned your keyboard?  Or maybe replaced batteries?04:50
xu-help5wThank you for the response. No I have no Issues in other flavours of ubuntu. this issue is only in Xubuntu flavour04:51
xu-help5wIs there a specific input libraries that I have to install ?04:53
gnoobhopefully someone can help.04:55
xu-help5wOk sure.04:56
gnoobhave you tried pressing each key individually to see if one particular key causes it?04:57
xu-help5wI think the SPACE key, Because each time when I type sudo then SPACE key it closes the window.04:57
xu-help5wI have tried other distro's other than ubuntu also, I have encountered this issue only in Xubuntu.04:59
tobiasBoraHello, I'd like to know, what is the recommended software manager in xubuntu? apt or snap? Notably, are apt repositories still maintained/up to date,07:29
tobiasBora?*07:29
tobiasBora(I ask because in the doc they mention "gnome software" and apt, but I also read that xubuntu uses Ubuntu sofsware Management (snap I guess))07:30
tobiasBoratccc-ç—qtsss07:48
tobiasBoraoups sorry for the last message07:49
gnrptobiasBora: Yeah, of course, apt is still maintained08:51
gnrpMaybe somebody with more insight can tell you something otherwise, but I would say right now it is more of an either-or08:52
gnrpsnap is good to get stuff directly from the developer08:52
gnrpand some stuff is only available via snap (chromium? Don't remember)08:53
gnrpanyway, nothing you have to worry about. Take whatever source you find and prefer, and maybe one will be more up-to-date, but there is no official maintenance stop or so08:54
gnrpe.g., I had audacity from the ubuntu sources, which was buggy and old, but the snap version works now08:54
diogenes_gnrp, i had vice-versa, viber.deb and even flatkak worked but snap only crased whenever you login.08:56
diogenes_crashed*08:57
gnrpdiogenes_: Hehe. So the snap was also the ubuntu snap or which one?08:57
diogenes_Xubuntu 20.04 snap install viber-mpt (or something)08:58
gnrpah, ok. I have to say, I didn't understand the snap distribution completely anyway08:59

xu-help19wI'm a new Voyager 20.04 LTS user having just upgraded from Zorin OS 9. I'm trying to figure out the correct keyboard combination to get a multiple window spread on my desktop? On Zorin OS9 it was Win+W but that doesnt seem to work on Voyager? If anyone knows how to get the same result in Voyage it would be greatly appreciated. Thx JP17:39
pmjdebruijnxu-help19w: this is #xubuntu though17:44
pmjdebruijnbut if voyager uses xfwm as well, http://www.keyxl.com/aaac887/409/Xfce-Window-Manager-keyboard-shortcuts.htm17:45
pmjdebruijnnot sure if xfwm does auto-rearranging of your windows though17:45
