doogHi, I have just upgraded from 20.04 to 22.04 and have noticed that some of the window decorations are different depending on the app. For example, the top bar in thunar looks "normal", but when I open Edit → Preferences, that window has a top bar with more padding, a different font, and some slight transparency. After a bit of reading, I think this might be because of something called "Client Side Decoration" (CSD) that was introduced in Xfce 4.16? Is i13:47
doogt possible to disable this? Or at least be able to adjust the font / transparency somewhere like I can in the Window Manager settings for my "normal" windows?13:47
doogI'm using the Arc-Dark theme if that makes any difference13:47
xenoidwhats the best way to upgrade from xubuntu 20.04 lts to 22.04 lts through terminal?14:22
doogI'm not sure if it's the *best* way, but I upgraded with: sudo do-release-upgrade14:23
xenoidChecking for a new Ubuntu release Failed to connect to https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts-development. Check your Internet connection or proxy settings14:31

EbonairHi all. I'm trying to switch from NVidia to the Nouveau display driver, but I'm getting: "pk-client-error-quark: The following packages have unmet dependencies: nvidia-dkms-515: Depends: dkms but it is not going to be installed (268)"16:49
EbonairBut that error makes no sense to me - I've got nvidia-dkms-510 installed, not 515.16:50
EbonairAnd dkms is already the latest version, according to apt-get.16:50
EbonairRebooting, installing 515, and then removing it seems to have done the trick.16:57

tomreynxenoid: the HTTPS location does exist and generally work, though. having to fall back to plain http can make the upgrade process a lot less secure.18:44
xenoidit worked and i upgraded 18:44
xenoid22.04.1 is buggy right now compared to 20.04.418:45
xenoidfor xubuntu18:45

xenoidsoftware center doesnt work either for me18:48
xenoidmissing icons18:49
xenoidwow i Switched server on the software center and now they appear19:01
xenoid@tomreyn i switched back to https in the config after the upgrade19:02
tomreynfor apt sources it matters less.19:03
xenoid@tomreyn I used to be able to hide these icons on the panel bar https://i.imgur.com/CElH9TE.png19:14
xenoidI cant do that in 22.04 lts anymore19:14
xenoidI dont have that arrow anymore 19:14
tomreynxenoid: sorry, i'm too little into xubuntu to tell :-/19:29
tomreynmaybe someone else here can help.19:30
Unit193xenoid: Ctrl+Right click, it has options to hide applications.19:42
xenoidtomreyn: thats my desktop right now https://i.imgur.com/wIHymCZ.png19:48
tomreynxenoid: i'm ok with that19:48
xenoidUnit193: they dont work those options19:48
xenoidUnit193: https://imgur.com/b6buBSo.png19:49
arraybolt3Hide indicators by default?19:49
Unit193That does not look like the status tray icon, do you have xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin installed?19:50
Unit193You'll want statustray.19:50
xenoidstatustray?>19:51
Unit193Part of xfce4-panel, yeah.19:51
xenoidhttps://imgur.com/licKPqH.png19:51
xenoidi have indicator plugin installed right now19:51
xenoidUnit193: i tried that it hides the icons but lets say I want to open the app through the tray I can it doesnt display19:53
xenoidI dont have that arrow like I had in xubuntu 20.04 and 18.04 where i can pull up the tray icons19:54
xenoidUnit193: https://imgur.com/drvMYOc.png see what I mean?19:54

Unit193xenoid: Replace 'Indicator plugin' with 'Status Tray plugin'19:56
Unit193I don't know for sure you'll be able to, but I just attempted to hide an item and saw the arrorw you speak of.19:57
Unit193Using xfce4-panel 4.16.419:57
xenoidso status tray plugin?20:01
xenoidUnit193: https://imgur.com/EkggK9L.png see i removed the indicator plugin and used the status tray plugin20:03
xenoidand hid the apps and i get no arrow20:03
Unit193!info xfce4-panel20:04
ubottuxfce4-panel (4.16.3-1, jammy): panel for Xfce4 desktop environment. In component universe, is optional. Built by xfce4-panel. Size 735 kB / 3,759 kB20:04
Unit193Hmm.20:05
xenoidnot only that I open programs like clementine and it doesnt even appear in the icon tray20:05
xenoidhowever when I use plugin inidicator it appears but I cant minimize the tray or hide the icons20:05
Unit193I seem to have what you're describing, though I do have one version up from you as well...20:07
Unit193https://sources.debian.org/src/xfce4-panel/4.16.4-1/NEWS/ I don't see anything in .4 that should fix it, unless I missed it.20:07
xenoidno i have the same version as you20:07
xenoid22.04 lts20:07
xenoidhttps://imgur.com/kA23W1V.png20:07
xenoidsee I wanna Minimize clutter but if I have to use it like this for now I will20:08
Unit193...What is that screenshot supposed to prove? :)20:08
xenoidim not sure if any xubuntu admins answer in this chan20:08
Unit193I'm an Xubuntu dev, I do a lot of the packaging.  But like I said, I have xfce4-panel 4.16.4-1, whereas jammy has only 4.16.3-1.20:10
Unit193I'll downgrade and see if it's the same.20:10
xenoidoh I see20:10
xenoidalso the weather app no longer displays the temperature20:11
xenoidwell the numeric digits it used to display beside the sun icon etc..20:13
Unit193OK, so yeah I'm confused.  I seem to have it working on xfce4-panel 4.16.3 too...  I've seen a bug report where xfce4-weather-plugin forgets settings, yeah.20:13
Unit193I just saw a commit or a dev release that should fix that issue though.20:14
Unit193Just to be clear: In that list of applications, you want an option to click that hides certain icons (say keepassxc) and tucks them under an arrow you can use to expand to access such icons as one normally would?20:15
xenoidyes Unit193 20:16
xenoidkind of like in windows when you can hide apps in the tray20:16
Unit193Yeah, OK.  That's exactly what I'm seeing. :/20:16
Unit193All I did was go in the status tray preferences and check 'hide' next to keepassxc. :/20:17
Unit193It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I can't really tell you what to do because that works for me.  I have an old system that's been upgraded over the years, so some config may be leftover.  I had hoped changing from the unmaintained indicator plugin to the status tray would help, but it seems that it did not.20:19
xenoidUnit193: I got it to work with the other status tray however when I open new apps like steam they dont go to the tray and I get the arrow now but I removed it altogther22:12
xenoidUnit193: it seems way too buggy this release 22.04 lts22:12
xenoidUnit193: I found a temporary solution and created a 3rd horizontal panel and that auto hides for now22:12
xenoidUnit193: https://i.imgur.com/6yDzByD.png22:12
Unit193Ouch...well I guess if that works..22:13
xenoidUnit193: between upgrading and trying to fix something so minor like this today took me all day Ill leave it as it is now22:13
xenoidUnit193: maybe in future updates they fix it22:13
Unit193- systray: Help to keep status notifiers from vanishing (xfce4-panel #102, #243, #599)22:14
xenoidis that a current bug thats reported22:15
Unit193I'm not sure if that's your fix, doesn't quite sound like it.  That's in the NEWS of xfce4-panel 4.16.522:15
xenoidit is my fix22:15
xenoidthe icons do vanish22:16
xenoidif I enable and hide them22:16
Unit193Urgh, well I doubt it, but if you're the type that will add a PPA, I can upload the new version of xfce4-panel to the backports PPA (https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages)22:18
Unit193I'll be uploading xfce4-panel 4.17.3 to the development shortly, but that's a dev release so I wouldn't recommend it in an LTS.22:19
xenoidUnit193: https://imgur.com/xzTEL8K.png23:11
xenoidI enabled status tray23:11
xenoidUnit193: https://imgur.com/z8M5j6u.png I closed clementine and reopened up it doesnt appear in my sys tray23:14
xenoidUnit193: however it appears in my indicator plugin23:15
xenoidif I remove the status tray and readd it than I will see clemtine again23:15
xenoidbut if i decide to exit clementine and reopen it never appears again in the status tray23:16
xenoidatleast I have the arrow back23:16
xenoidbut vanishing apps in the tray23:16
=== keypushe- is now known as keypusher
Unit193So it's possible that's been solved, perhaps.23:32
xenoidhalf of it is solved23:33
Unit193That is, in 4.16.5.23:34
xenoidhttps://imgur.com/UVFMEFQ.png23:49
xenoidlook i just rebooted my system23:49
xenoidand the icons in the tray are gone23:49
xenoidonly 2 of them are left23:49
xenoidmy steam isnt there23:49
xenoidetc..23:49
xenoidthey just vanished after a reboot23:49
xenoidand if I open a program it never goes in the trya23:50
xenoid*tray23:50
xenoidhowever the program will go in the plugin indicator which is where I created a 3rd panel for now23:50
