[10:28] <nikolam> Is there some recommended window manager replacement, that can support 'focus stealing' prevention for windows...
[10:53] <brainwash> nikolam: but Xfce (xfwm4) can do that
[10:55] <brainwash> nikolam: https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfwm4/wmtweaks#focus
[10:56] <nikolam> brainwash, yes, I enabled activate focus stealing pervention ;) thanks
[11:46] <xu-help96w> Salve, io ho problema con tasti luminosità schermo. Ho un Chromebook acer c720
[11:46] <xu-help96w> i have a problem with screen brightness keys. I have a Chromebook
[14:08] <abckb__> I am using Xubuntu 20.04 on a Acer Swift 3. I would like to update to 20.10. Is is possible? Any official guide?
[14:09] <abckb__> (I want to test Bluetooth mic. Because in 20.04 A2DP sink works, but mic does not)
[14:15] <brainwash> abckb__: it would be smart to test with the 20.10 live session first then
[19:40] <xu-help15w> Hi, I've been using xubuntu for a few months now and love it!! One problem, it constantly crashes. The  icons disappear then the whole system loses functionality then i have to reboot
[19:41] <xu-help15w> I've used the disk utility to check the SSD i'm using and it says it's fine
[19:41] <xu-help15w> errorfree.
[19:41] <xu-help15w> The motherboard is brand new
[19:41] <xu-help15w> I dk what's wrong
[19:42] <xu-help15w> I haven't checked the processor yet
[19:42] <xu-help15w> I am looking for suggestions from any system techs
[19:44] <gnrp> xu-help15w: Does magic sysrq work?
[19:44] <xu-help15w> sysrq?' i've never heard of it
[19:44] <xu-help15w> how do i check it?
[19:45] <gnrp> Alt+SysRQ+s should sync the hard drives, and alt+sysrq+n should reboot
[19:45] <gnrp> that's ohw you can check if your kernel still does something
[19:47] <gnrp> you can also check the logs in /var/log/syslog, if at the time of the freeze anything was still going on
[19:47] <xu-help15w> i see. thank you. how would i do a Sysrq?
[19:51] <xu-help15w> oh i've found it..it's the key for print screen
[19:53] <yaya> i just did the alt sysrq and s and the machine shut down
[19:54] <yaya> i was having problems with the system shutting down
[19:54] <yaya> im now using this username
[19:55] <yaya> but i posted under a different username a few minutes aago
[19:55] <yaya> ago
[19:56] <yaya> my problem is ubuntu crashing every so often...i would lose all the icons then nothing would work and i would have to reboot
[19:59] <yaya> i'm back again.     i just did an ALT N SYSRQ and it immediately shutdown the system
[20:00] <yaya> well that part is working.  my original question was: xubuntu was crashing a lot, i'd lose the icons then i'd have to do a reboot
[20:00] <yaya> If there are any techs around to help it would be much appreciated
[20:01] <yaya> so far: i've used the disk utility and checked the SSD and no errors
[20:01] <yaya> the motherboard is new
[20:01] <yaya> i haven't  checked the processor
[20:06] <gnrp> yaya: Yeah, hat's what it is supposed to do
[20:07] <gnrp> I wanted to know whether this still works when your computer freezes
[20:07] <gnrp> can you check /var/log/syslog if somehting happens during a freeze sitll?
[20:11] <yaya> yes ive gone to var/log/syslog but i cant read it
[20:13] <yaya> oh, i was clicking on the wrong one with encoding
[20:13] <yaya> i can see it
[20:13] <yaya> what am i checking for?'??
[20:54] <gnrp> check for the date of the last crash#

[20:57] <Maik> !paste
[20:59] <yaya> could be the problem here:  [13:58:01] Uploading /var/crash/_usr_bin_xfce4-power-manager.1000.crash.
[20:59] <Maik> yaya: understood the previous message?
[21:00] <yaya> yes to post using the url
[21:00] <Maik> thanks
[21:02] <Maik> by using paste.ubuntu.com you prevent the channel from being flooded. On other channels you get kicked or even banned for a short time. Just so you know. :)
[21:03] <yaya> i think it could be a problem witth the power manager. why? because sometimes weird things  happen. example; the screen times out after a minute or two when im watching a video
[21:04] <yaya> maik; im here for tech support and to report problems  with XUBUNTU not for politics
[21:06] <yaya> let me know if i'm in the wronng place and i wont waste another second here
[21:06] <yaya> i want to communicate with developers of XUBUT}
[21:07] <yaya> XUBUNTU noone else
