[06:28] <nop> hey
[06:29] <nop> i'm trying to connect to my xubuntu box from windows using turbovnc to get a 4k display... i can set the geometry and then apparently i have to use xrandr to set it again
[06:30] <nop> but the screen appears scaled. in full-screen it's larger than the monitor and i can pan across it using the mouse.
[06:33] <nop> oh. it was a high-dpi setting on the windows side, regarding the client. nevermind.
[07:04] <anarhist> hello, i am running xubuntu 18.04 lts. today i have updated my computer after not updating it for a little while. i saw that there were things about adding certificate authorities. now youtube does not work
[07:05] <anarhist> when i say "does not work" it means that in differnt browsers i have a video loading up, but refusing to play
[07:05] <diogenes_> anarhist, in all browsers?
[07:06] <anarhist> diogenes_, yes. diffrent browsers, including starting a new profile. including loading in private mode, etc
[07:07] <anarhist> youtube-dl works, so i do have access to the video stream itself
[07:09] <anarhist> ok, this is really strange. tor-browser is also not working
[07:10] <pikapika> Wayland might spell doom for umanity
[07:10] <pikapika> anarhist, hows your clock?
[07:10] <anarhist> 10:10 moscow time
[07:10] <pikapika> No
[07:11] <anarhist> it is correct
[07:11] <pikapika> I mean
[07:11] <pikapika> Is your computers clock right
[07:11] <pikapika> Sometimes clock errors cause https and certificat eissues
[07:11] <pikapika> Stay safe out there
[07:12] <anarhist> i understood you, that is why i have stated my time, so that you would (if something is wrong) be able to tell me something like "it's 30 minutes past the hour now"
[07:12] <anarhist> i just last week came back from the largest lgbt festival in russia... safe is not my middle name, it is vladimirovich
[07:13] <anarhist> but i still want my youtube to work
[07:13] <anarhist> i have restarted once. perhaps i'll turn the computer off, wait a little bit and turn it back on... just in case i'll restart the router
[07:14] <anarhist> be back later, and report on the situation
[07:18] <anarhist> pikapika, restarting everything worked.. now i want to know what has happened. this was honestly weird
[07:19] <anarhist> for fucks sake, it has started again
[07:20] <anarhist> wtf!
[07:42] <pikapika> anarhist, can I ask on main ubuntu channel?
[07:42] <anarhist> pikapika, yeah, of course. i just thought it was better here
[07:43] <pikapika> anarhist, https://askubuntu.com/questions/420860/problem-with-certificates
[07:43] <pikapika> this says
[07:43] <pikapika> sudo apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates
[07:43] <pikapika> idk if it applies still
[07:44] <pikapika> let me check if such a package is pre installed on my (perfectly normal working) installation
[07:45] <pikapika> dpkg -l | grep ca-certificates
[07:45] <pikapika> shows me a number of such packages
[07:45] <pikapika> main one and one corresponding to -java and one for -mono
[07:46] <pikapika> anarhist, check the installed status via dpkg -l | grep ca-certificates
[07:47] <pikapika> if it isn't already installed, then you must probably follow the apt-get command above
[07:47] <pikapika>  sudo apt-get install --reinstall ca-certificates
[07:47] <anarhist> i have ca-certificates, ca-certificates-mono and ca-certificates-java
[07:48] <pikapika> probably just try reinstalling as stated
[07:48] <anarhist> do i need to reboot ( i did reinstall and nothing changed )
[07:48] <pikapika> idk
[07:48] <anarhist> ok, i'll reboot just in case
[07:51] <anarhist> pikapika, nope, no luck
[07:52] <pikapika> You ask in #ubuntu then
[07:52] <pikapika> What was the error message
[07:52] <pikapika> when you first got the error
[07:52] <pikapika> about missing ca or whatever
[07:52] <anarhist> pikapika, no error
[07:53] <anarhist> i don't think i've said about the error anything, there was none
[07:53] <pikapika> >. i saw that there were things about adding certificate authorities.
[07:53] <anarhist> yes, there were messages about adding several new ceritifcate authorities
[07:53] <pikapika> where
[07:53] <anarhist> when i did and dist-upgrade
[07:54] <anarhist> i'll ask on #ubuntu
[07:56] <pikapika> dist-upgrades tend to be flaky
[07:56] <pikapika> I will reinstall next time instead of a dist-upgrade
[07:57] <pikapika> Thats why I started to document each change I did from a fresh install
[07:57] <pikapika> So I can replicate those again
[08:19] <anarhist> pikapika, it is solved. the funny part is that it had to do with the sound preferences (profiles) i had surround sound that somehow got selected, but i physically have nothing to play it, once i have changed the profile in the mixer the vide just began playing
[08:19] <anarhist> i'm letting you know... in case you are interested
[08:22] <pikapika> anarhist, so normal websites were working
[08:22] <pikapika> It was only a video related problem
[08:22] <pikapika> Rather tha a certificate related
[08:22] <pikapika> Strange
[08:23] <pikapika> you should have guessed when its only happening to yt vids
[08:23] <anarhist> yeah, the browser blocked playing the video if it wasn't able to play the audio
[08:23] <anarhist> it also happened on vimeo
[08:23] <anarhist> once i saw that i tried loading a local video file and noticed that sound wasn't playing
[08:23] <anarhist> i changed th profile and right away all the browser videos started playing
[08:24] <pikapika> Sound is a very complex subject
[10:00] <sorinello> xtao, ping
[10:22] <xtao> pong
[10:22] <pikapika> uwu
[10:22] <pikapika> xtao, meow
[14:02] <Rcck2> hi, i am using xubuntu and i find something odd, when you select a desktop icon, i can see the margin from the right is more than the left, its not symetric
[14:02] <Rcck2> hwo to solve this? is a problem of lxde, a problem of ubuntu, ? i dont know
[14:02] <Rcck2> no one got pissed off by this lack of simetry?
[14:04] <gnrp> Rcck2: Hm, I am not really aware of what you mean. Can you make a screenshot?
[14:05] <Rcck2> sure
[14:06] <Rcck2> https://i.imgur.com/ct8WeXh.png
[14:06] <Rcck2> check the surroundings of "File System" when selected
[14:06] <Rcck2> there is a 7px margin to the right and 5px margin to the left
[14:06] <Rcck2> asymetric,
[14:07] <Rcck2> so frustrating
[14:07] <Rcck2> lack of perfection, and happens on any icon i select,
[14:07] <Rcck2> does it happens to you too?
[14:09] <gnrp> ah, ok, I get what you mean. But to be honest, no clue. I switched desktop icons off a long time ago^
[14:09] <gnrp> sorry, cannot help you with that
[14:11] <brainwash> Rcck2: it looks like the text shadow is being taken into account also
[14:11] <brainwash> so the box is pushed to the right and bottom
[14:12] <Rcck2> can we disable the shadow to see if thats the case?
[14:12] <Rcck2> does it happens to you brainwash ?
[14:15] <brainwash> on my system it looks like this https://i.imgur.com/5FExdTw.png
[14:15] <Rcck2> asymetric too,
[14:15] <Rcck2> yeah and no one notice it to correct it yet? i am shocked
[14:15] <brainwash> yeah, but less noticeable
[14:16] <Rcck2> you find it less noticeable? i dont know, it fully pop up to me view
[14:18] <brainwash> https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=11621
[14:19] <brainwash>   XfdesktopIconView.view .label {
[14:19] <brainwash>     text-shadow: 1px 1px 2px black; }
[14:19] <brainwash> that would be the way to disable the text shadow
[14:20] <brillopad> Hi all. I deleted my swap partition and since I've done this, boot is delayed by 10-20 secs while the OS looks for it. I'm seeing the message 'Failed to find logical volume "vgxubuntu/swap_1"' in my boot.log. Some sites on the web suggest editing /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume but that file doesn't exist on my system. Any ideas please?
[14:20] <Rcck2> i am like 80% noob on linux, where tho change that parameter of the style?
[14:20] <brainwash> Rcck2: it is explained in that thread
[14:21] <brainwash> oh well
[14:21] <brainwash> the file name is not mentioned
[14:21] <brainwash> ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
[14:22] <brainwash> you have to manually create it
[14:22] <brainwash> if you want to test the changes, simply run: "xfdesktop -Q; xfdesktop"
[14:22] <brainwash> to restart the app which manages the desktop
[14:23] <brainwash> if you want to open a bug report, do it here: https://gitlab.xfce.org/xfce/xfdesktop/-/issues
[14:25] <Rcck2> blob:https://imgur.com/795e5d08-a46e-48f7-8629-acfe11d87a88
[14:25] <Rcck2> https://i.imgur.com/rp4X2Z7.png
[14:25] <Rcck2> like that?
[14:25] <Rcck2> doesnt seems to work,
[14:25] <brainwash> uhm
[14:26] <brainwash> you don't see the mistake?
[14:26] <brainwash> :)
[14:26] <brainwash> text-shadow: 0px black;
[14:26] <brainwash> you want to disable the shadow
[14:26] <Rcck2> oh i though the code you gave me was already modified xD i didn't pay attention
[14:27] <Rcck2> i put all to 0px
[14:27] <Rcck2> no result
[14:27] <brainwash> same result?
[14:27] <Rcck2> the shadow seems disspeared
[14:27] <Rcck2> but the margin didn't
[14:28] <brainwash> interesting
[14:28] <brainwash> maybe do the same for "XfdesktopIconView.view:active"
[14:29] <Rcck2> https://i.imgur.com/BKclQXc.png
[14:29] <Rcck2> okey
[14:31] <Rcck2> nha, not yet
[14:32] <brainwash> could be that it is possible to work around this little glitch via css
[14:32] <brainwash> but maybe one has to check the source code
[14:32] <brainwash> so, you would need to create a bug report
[14:33] <Rcck2> yeah no problem, thanks for the help,
[14:33] <brainwash> note that I'm not a CSS magician :)
[14:34] <brainwash> if you only want a solution, you could also just ask on the Xfce forums
[14:35] <brainwash> (solution via css)
[14:35] <Rcck2> must be a css problem in your opinion then?
[14:35] <Rcck2> can't be anything else?
[14:36] <Rcck2> i am surprised there is css inside the OS, i though it was used just for web
[14:36] <brainwash> not sure about that. it could be wrong calculation in the code.
[14:36] <brainwash> gtk3 theming is done via css
[14:36] <Rcck2> oks
