[03:15] <nerdkid> hello, is there a way to make hexchat dark mode?
[09:56] <alex__> save nuovo utente di xubuntu
[11:37] <xubuntu71i> hi you all
[11:47] <Exterminador> hi guys. so, I have my laptop connected via Ethernet and I'd like to use it as a hotstop for other devices (router is in another room) to 'extend' the WiFi round. how can I do it? running Xubuntu 20.04
[12:58] <tomreyn> Exterminador: are you saying you want to set up an access point on your laptop with the same SSID as your other access point, and enable seemless device handover across those those wireless LANs? i would not know how to set this up, or whether that's actually possible.
[12:58] <tomreyn> if you just want to setup a separate wireless access point on your laptop, that should work, though, if the device can work in this mode.
[12:59] <Exterminador> and how can I check if it has AP support? since I have the laptop wired, the wifi card/adaptor is free
[13:01] <tomreyn> you can just try to set it up https://ubunlog.com/en/como-crear-un-punto-de-acceso-wifi-en-ubuntu-18-04-lts/
[13:01] <tomreyn> or run "iw list" in a terminal to see the "supported interface modes"
[13:02] <tomreyn> "AP" is the mode you'd need
[13:03] <tomreyn> "mesh point" would be needed for the first scenario (same SSID, automatic AP handover)
[13:05] <tomreyn> here's anothger way to set it up: https://mitrahosting.id/how-to-create-a-wireless-hotspot-access-point-on-ubuntu-21-04-hirsute-hippo/
[13:05] <tomreyn> (the normal access point, without mesh / handover)
[13:07] <tomreyn> and here's a video, explaining that, too. it's old, but the process is unchanged: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwDGw_fAGb0
[13:37] <Exterminador> seems I only have "Managed" and no AP/wrv
[14:01] <tomreyn> Exterminador: "managed" is the "normal" one, where you connect to an existing AP.
[14:02] <tomreyn> if the other modes aren't listed by 'iw', it means the driver / device firmware / hardware is not capable of it
[14:02] <tomreyn> that's often the case with badly supported, especially usb connected, wireless chipsets.
[14:12] <Exterminador> there are no other modes. being a laptop with 10y has its cons
[20:34] <dreamon> hello. I have a very issued touchpad of thinkpad laptop. I have to start → sleep 10; synclient RightButtonAreaLeft=0; synclient RightButtonAreaTop=0; synclient RTCornerButton=0;synclient ClickFinger2=0; xinput set-prop 'TPPS/2 Elan TrackPoint' "libinput Scroll Method Enabled" 0 0 0;synclient RBCornerButton=0;xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics Finger" 10 15 100 ;xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad
[20:34] <dreamon> " "Synaptics Coasting Speed" 2 200; xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics Noise Cancellation" 5 5
[20:35] <dreamon> to fix it manually. how can I do it on boot? I tried to add in start menau .. but no luck I had to do it in Terminal
[21:42] <gnrp> what is the issue?
[21:42] <gnrp> how did you add it in the start menu?
[21:44] <dreamon> gnrp, all settings - autostart - added "on login" command -> sleep 10; synclient RightButtonAreaLeft=0; synclient RightButtonAreaTop=0; synclient RTCornerButton=0;synclient ClickFinger2=0; xinput set-prop 'TPPS/2 Elan TrackPoint' "libinput Scroll Method Enabled" 0 0 0;synclient RBCornerButton=0;xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics Finger" 10 15 100 ;xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics Coasting 
[21:44] <dreamon> Speed" 2 200; xinput set-prop "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad" "Synaptics Noise Cancellation" 5 5
[21:45] <dreamon> issue was touchpad very hard to handle. with these commands it works. but still have some strange behaviors.. after reboot, all is gone.
[21:46] <dreamon> so tried to add it autostart, but no luck
[21:52] <gnrp> dreamon: Have you tried putting everything into a shell script that you would execute?
[21:52] <gnrp> also, can you run this as a user or does it need root?
[21:53] <dreamon> not till now.
[21:55] <dreamon> will give it a try.
[22:06] <dreamon> gnrp, dont know why, but this works! Thank you
[22:09] <gnrp> dreamon: You put it in a separate shell script?
[22:09] <dreamon> gnrp, yes, now autostart works by starting this script
[22:17] <gnrp> ok, good^^
