[21:09] <lamont> silly question....
[21:10] <lamont> on a server install w/o network-manager (let's say lucid or precise), what causes interfaces to be configured automagically when link shows up?


[12:39] <PF|WSTP> Im trying to set up Squid proxy server
[12:39] <PF|WSTP> Went through, did what the documentation said
[12:39] <PF|WSTP> changed to 3128 port to 8888
[12:39] <PF|WSTP> but still cant access the proxy server
[12:39] <ivoks> did you start it?
[12:39] <PF|WSTP> and restarted it
[12:39] <ivoks> and is running?
[12:40] <PF|WSTP> indeed
[12:40] <ivoks> telnet localhost 8888 is ok?
[12:40] <ajmitch> connection refused? acl errors? what do you mean by can't access?
[12:40] <PF|WSTP> sec
[12:40] <PF|WSTP> ERROR
[12:40] <PF|WSTP> The requested URL could not be retrieved
[12:40] <PF|WSTP> The following error was encountered:
[12:40] <PF|WSTP>     * Invalid Request
[12:41] <ajmitch> right, so squid is running & giving errors back to the browser
[12:41] <PF|WSTP> yes
[12:41] <PF|WSTP> i have a hunch my ISP may be blocking it
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> Generated Mon, 30 Apr 2007 22:38:07 GMT by server.lexcominc.net (squid/2.6.STABLE5)
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> Lexcom is my ISP
[12:42] <ajmitch> ah
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> i tried 3128 and 8888
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> changed, restarted, tried
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> changed, restarted, tried
[12:42] <PF|WSTP> no dice
[12:43] <PF|WSTP> https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/squid.html
[12:43] <PF|WSTP> im following that guide
[12:44] <ivoks> squid is on computer from which you are browsing?
[12:45] <PF|WSTP> no
[12:45] <PF|WSTP> it's at my house
[12:45] <PF|WSTP> ive got the ports forwarded too
[12:45] <ivoks> oh, proxy over NAT...
[12:45] <PF|WSTP> it's a test server
[12:45] <PF|WSTP> old HP box sitting in my living room
[12:46] <PF|WSTP> got it hooked into my router
[12:46] <PF|WSTP> forwarded though
[12:48] <ivoks> squid has logs
[12:48] <ivoks> check them out
[12:48] <PF|WSTP> command?
[12:48] <ivoks> log is a file
[12:48] <PF|WSTP> oic
[12:48] <ivoks>  /var/log/squid/cache.log
[12:48] <PF|WSTP> k
[12:48] <PF|WSTP> checking
[12:50] <PF|WSTP> do i need to bind an ip/port on squid?
[12:50] <ivoks> squid binds on port, not other way around
[12:51] <PF|WSTP> it said something similar to "starting HTTP on <IP_ADDRESS> port 3128
[12:51] <ivoks> meaning it listens on port 3128 on all IPs
[12:51] <PF|WSTP> ok
[12:51] <ivoks> and you are proxy for whole internet :D
[12:52] <ivoks> very soon your IP will get blacklisted :)
[12:52] <PF|WSTP> huh?
[12:52] <PF|WSTP> oh
[12:52] <PF|WSTP> gonna take care of that soon
[12:52] <PF|WSTP> just trying to set it up now
[12:53] <PF|WSTP> actually
[12:53] <PF|WSTP> i just killed Squid
[12:53] <PF|WSTP> thanks for the help though

[02:57] <fumbalah> Hi, I'm having trouble getting the disc to boot, i keep getting a cant access tty error
[02:58] <fumbalah> I found a solution, but i'm not having much luck finding a way to tell grub to boot /dev/hda1
[03:41] <foo> Hm, it is possible that 1 query can hit the disk 100%, right? (eg. disk utilization, as reported by iostat -dkx)
[05:00] <Skaag> hi guys
[05:00] <Skaag> I have a debian box I want to replace with an ubuntu server box
[05:00] <Skaag> can I do this without erasing the data?

[05:13] <PinkFloyd> i just followed the guide :/
[05:13] <PinkFloyd> https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html
[05:13] <PinkFloyd> is that one better?
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> well
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> its easier to configure
[05:14] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:14] <PinkFloyd> I'll get it then
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> you can just install it, and whenever you create a user
[05:14] <PinkFloyd> is it in the Ubuntu reps?
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> they have a ftp login
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> and the root of the ftp server is their /home/user directory.
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> ye
[05:14] <PinkFloyd> oh good
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> yep :)
[05:14] <PinkFloyd> it's like what I use on my shell
[05:14] <r00tintheb0x> super simple.
[05:15] <PinkFloyd> good good
[05:15] <foo> Not as super simple as this!
[05:15] <PinkFloyd> haha
[05:15] <r00tintheb0x> LOLO
[05:15] <r00tintheb0x> whats up brothern!
[05:16] <PinkFloyd> r00tintheb0x
[05:16] <PinkFloyd> is ProFTPD in the ubuntu reps?
[05:17] <r00tintheb0x> yes
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:17] <r00tintheb0x> Version: 1.3.0-9ubuntu0.1
[05:17] <r00tintheb0x> "aptitude show proftpd"
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> oh
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> it's on the CD
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> :)
[05:17] <r00tintheb0x> it may be.
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> it is
[05:17] <PinkFloyd> my CD-ROM spooled up
[05:17] <r00tintheb0x> I'd use the one online though, its newer probably.
[05:18] <PinkFloyd> I can upgrade it if need be
[05:18] <r00tintheb0x> hey foo, you want a login to my torrentflux?
[05:18] <PinkFloyd> inetd or standalone?
[05:18] <r00tintheb0x> sure thing PinkFloyd
[05:18] <r00tintheb0x> standalone
[05:19] <PinkFloyd> 1.3.0-21ubuntu1
[05:19] <PinkFloyd> that's the version on it i think
[05:19] <PinkFloyd> ok it's installed
[05:20] <PinkFloyd> now what... >_>
[05:20] <r00tintheb0x> /etc/init.d/proftpd restart
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> then whenever you add a user, it adds a ftp account.
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> for instance
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> my user is mike.
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> so mike is my ftp username, and my login password for my machine is my ftp password.
[05:21] <PinkFloyd> oh
[05:21] <PinkFloyd> ok good
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> and my FTP root is /home/mike
[05:21] <PinkFloyd> my shell acts the same way
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> right
[05:21] <PinkFloyd> it's a FreeBSD box
[05:21] <r00tintheb0x> same login info as the shell
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> ok cool
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> but
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> got an error
[05:22] <r00tintheb0x> what error.
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> IPv6 getaddrinfo 'server.lexcominc.net' error: Name or service not known
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> lexcominc is my ISP
[05:22] <r00tintheb0x> something along the lines of "r00tinthebox needs a cig"?
[05:22] <r00tintheb0x> yeah ignore that pink.
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:22] <r00tintheb0x> it'll still work.
[05:22] <PinkFloyd> thanks a lot :)
[05:23] <r00tintheb0x> root@malakai:~# netstat -l
[05:23] <r00tintheb0x> do a netstat -l
[05:23] <PinkFloyd> is there a certain port I need to use?
[05:23] <r00tintheb0x> and it'll show you what services are lisening.
[05:23] <r00tintheb0x> /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf = the config file.
[05:24] <r00tintheb0x> brb
[05:24] <Skaag> r00tintheb0x: do you know if you can install ubuntu-server 7.04 on top of a drive that has data in it, without formatting?
[05:24] <Skaag> oh ok

[05:27] <Skaag> I want to replace debian with ubuntu-server
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> on
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> lol
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> i've done it, it depends on how good you are with hacking at linux.
[05:28] <r00tintheb0x> gettin things to work when they're broken.
[05:28] <Skaag> well the drives went bork
[05:28] <Skaag> that is, corrupt, not physically broken
[05:29] <Skaag> during the last debian update to etch
[05:29] <Skaag> something went wrong with the e2fslibs
[05:33] <PinkFloyd> r00tintheb0x, is there anything you can recommend for me
[05:33] <PinkFloyd> Im playing around with Server Edition
[05:35] <r00tintheb0x> ok back

[05:37] <foo> r00tintheb0x: What's up = just troubleshooting some mysql stuff, finally got this figured out ... after a few weeks, it feels good.

[05:37] <r00tintheb0x> cool man.
[05:38] <r00tintheb0x> im working on MySQL database replication.
[05:38] <r00tintheb0x> fun fun.
[05:38] <r00tintheb0x> cool pink.
[05:38] <r00tintheb0x> The Perfect Setup is a great guide to get some basics working.
[05:38] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704
[05:38] <PinkFloyd> got it
[05:38] <foo> r00tintheb0x: Nice, what kind?
[05:40] <PinkFloyd> r00tintheb0x, do you know of CPanel is free or costs?
[05:41] <foo> PinkFloyd: It costs
[05:41] <PinkFloyd> oh
[05:41] <foo> PinkFloyd: Knowing r00tintheb0x, he'd tell you to use webmin.
[05:41] <PinkFloyd> this guide recommends ISPConfig
[05:41] <r00tintheb0x> foo, mysql
[05:41] <PinkFloyd> I'll test webmin
[05:41] <r00tintheb0x> lol
[05:41] <r00tintheb0x> foo, what do you mean what kind.
[05:41] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, dont use ISPconfig
[05:41] <foo> r00tintheb0x: What kind of setup
[05:42] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:42] <r00tintheb0x> i use webmin + virtualmin GPL
[05:42] <PinkFloyd> r00tintheb0x: Is there a way I can set up a hostname for my box to where I dont have to use the IP everytime?
[05:42] <r00tintheb0x> oh, primary and secondary oracle/sql servers with HA failover and replication.
[05:42] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:42] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, lemme log into my server real quick.
[05:42] <r00tintheb0x> hold on.
[05:42] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:43] <PinkFloyd> I actually need to reset my router
[05:43] <foo> r00tintheb0x: oracle? Nice
[05:43] <PinkFloyd> I had more computers on it, but they're gone now
[05:43] <foo> r00tintheb0x: What's HA?
[05:43] <PinkFloyd> this computer has .2, server has .5
[05:43] <PinkFloyd> with no other computers, lol
[05:44] <r00tintheb0x> high availability
[05:44] <r00tintheb0x> (spelling
[05:44] <r00tintheb0x> foo, http://www.linux-ha.org/
[05:44] <r00tintheb0x> all about redundancy!
[05:44] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:45] <PinkFloyd> r00tintheb0x: If it helps, I chose LAMP on install
[05:45] <r00tintheb0x> yeah, thats what i do too PinkFloyd
[05:45] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, you need to change /etc/hosts
[05:45] <r00tintheb0x> and...
[05:46] <PinkFloyd> so add in
[05:46] <r00tintheb0x> /etc/hostname
[05:46] <PinkFloyd> "<IP_ADDRESS>     name"
[05:46] <PinkFloyd> ?
[05:46] <foo> r00tintheb0x: so, master/slave setup? Or, master/master ?
[05:46] <r00tintheb0x> primary & failover.
[05:46] <r00tintheb0x> connected w/ a serial cable.
[05:46] <r00tintheb0x> and CAT5.
[05:47] <foo> You have some hardware inbetween there?
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, you're just trying to change your hostname right?
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> foo,
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> no, just two servers.
[05:47] <PinkFloyd> yeah
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> if one goes down, the other takes over.
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:47] <PinkFloyd> so i dont have to enter the dang IP all the time
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, "hostname whateveryourhostnameis"
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> do it like that.
[05:47] <PinkFloyd> Do I need to have a specific host or can I just make one up to use
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> oh, you need to add it to your other machines /etc/hosts file.
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> like...
[05:47] <r00tintheb0x> hold up
[05:48] <r00tintheb0x> i'll pastebin it for you
[05:48] <PinkFloyd> k
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd,
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> http://pastebin.ca/raw/466706
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> <IP_ADDRESS>    malakai.petris.com      malakai
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> thats the format
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> so you'd do like.
[05:49] <PinkFloyd> so id put <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:49] <r00tintheb0x> <IP_ADDRESS>  yourhostname.localhost yourhostname.
[05:50] <r00tintheb0x> yeah.
[05:50] <PinkFloyd> k
[05:50] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:52] <PinkFloyd> ok
[05:52] <PinkFloyd> i put
[05:52] <PinkFloyd> <IP_ADDRESS>     box
[05:52] <PinkFloyd> would that work?
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> yeah
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> if you ping box.
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> it'll resolve to that IP
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> ok good
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> simpler now
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> /etc/hosts = a mini-dns server kinda
[05:54] <r00tintheb0x> :)
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> ah ok
[05:54] <PinkFloyd> and...hostname?
[05:55] <r00tintheb0x> umm
[05:55] <r00tintheb0x> look
[05:55] <r00tintheb0x> paste me the IP's and hostnames you want.
[05:55] <r00tintheb0x> and i'll make you a /etc/hosts file.
[05:55] <r00tintheb0x> :)
 /etc/hostname
[05:56] <PinkFloyd> no i mean that
[05:56] <r00tintheb0x> oooh
[05:56] <r00tintheb0x> /etc/hostname is the hostname of each individual machine.
[05:56] <PinkFloyd> editing now
[05:57] <PinkFloyd> do i need to add the same thing?
[05:57] <PinkFloyd> <IP_ADDRESS>   box
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> Ok
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> 1st. how many machines do you have.
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> B. what are their names
[05:57] <PinkFloyd> in all?
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> i.e. mine is malakai.
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> and 3.
[05:57] <r00tintheb0x> what are their internal IP's
[05:58] <PinkFloyd> all of my computers?
[05:58] <r00tintheb0x> the ones your assigning hostnames to.
[05:58] <r00tintheb0x> the 3 or whatever
[05:58] <PinkFloyd> just the server
[05:58] <PinkFloyd> for right now
[05:58] <PinkFloyd> box
[05:59] <r00tintheb0x> ok
[05:59] <r00tintheb0x> type
[06:00] <r00tintheb0x> at the bash prompt
[06:00] <r00tintheb0x> what do you want to call it?
[06:00] <PinkFloyd> i put in "<IP_ADDRESS>    box"
[06:00] <PinkFloyd> in the hostname file
[06:00] <r00tintheb0x> "hostname exit out of the hosts file without saving.
[06:00] <r00tintheb0x> if you make a mistake you could REALLY sc5rew things up.
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> You're going to call your server "box"
[06:01] <PinkFloyd> yes
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> Why not "datawhore" or something
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> heh
[06:01] <PinkFloyd> I'll change it if I come up with something clever
[06:01] <PinkFloyd> ;)
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> ok
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> type: hostname box
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> then
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> hostname.
[06:01] <r00tintheb0x> w/o the .
[06:04] <r00tintheb0x> hmm
[06:04] <PinkFloyd> ok
[06:04] <PinkFloyd> did
[06:04] <PinkFloyd> hostname  box
[06:04] <PinkFloyd> hostname
[06:05] <r00tintheb0x> it should have replied with box.
[06:05] <r00tintheb0x> PinkFloyd, http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=19226790
[06:05] <r00tintheb0x> ive gotta do some work
[06:05] <r00tintheb0x> sorry
[06:05] <r00tintheb0x> :(
[06:05] <PinkFloyd> it's ok
[06:19] <r00tintheb0x_wrk> foo, whats anoter word for quote, or bid.
[06:19] <r00tintheb0x_wrk> ?
[06:21] <r00tintheb0x_wrk> foo, foo foo !
[09:24] <foo> Where do you guys store your server passwords? I have an encrypted vim file, but I know that's not too secure. Gah. What's the best way to do this?
[09:25] <Burgundavia> I use LDAP and have a single password
[09:25] <foo> Nice. I'm talking about root/user passwords for several servers...
[09:26] <Burgundavia> that is what ldap is for
[09:26] <Burgundavia> and I don't use root
[09:27] <Burgundavia> it is a dangerous thing to play with, if you ever have more than one admin
[09:27] <foo> I typically don't ... and yes, "He who play at root may kill the tree."
[09:27] <foo> ... but I still have to store passwords somewhere
[09:27] <foo> heh, I guess ubuntu doesn't have a root password.
[09:27] <foo> I forgot about that
[09:27] <Burgundavia> with ldap you only have one password
[09:27] <foo> I manage some other systems that are a different flavor, gah.
[09:27] <Burgundavia> which is easy to store in your head
[09:28] <Burgundavia> you can auth any unix against an ldap server
[09:28] <foo> So, you're saying to tie up all the servers to have one central ldap server?
[09:28] <Burgundavia> yep
[09:29] <foo> hmmm
[09:29] <foo> Alright, thanks
[09:29] <Burgundavia> sso is a life saver
[10:04] <levander> I've got a bunch of audio files that I want to share between my users.  I don't want them in my HOME directory because I do regular backups of that directory.  Where do they go on the file system?
[10:05] <levander> I'm thinking in /var somewhere.
[10:09] <levander> Wow, people really aren't sure where something like that goes: http://ask.metafilter.com/51237/Help-me-pick-the-best-location-for-my-MP3s-on-Linux
[10:10] <jsgotangco> well you can put them in /opt i guess
[10:11] <jsgotangco> its actually your call
[10:11] <levander> I typically put programs that I didn't install from Ubuntu's repositories in /opt.  So that these unmanaged files don't get all mixed up with the managed files...
[10:11] <levander> I'm look at /var now.
[10:12] <levander> Web pages that are "kind of" shared between users go in /var/www, so I'm thinking /var
[10:13] <jsgotangco> you can just pile them up even on /mp3 if you want to, just create your own
[10:14] <levander> jsgotangco: Yeah, but I'm trying to figure out some kind of UNIX standard way of doing it.
[05:54] <Skaag> I can't get grub to install on my drive
[05:54] <Skaag> it's a SATA raid solution
[05:54] <Skaag> with 4 drives
[05:54] <Skaag> How do I go about fixing this?
[06:01] <arturaz> hello. ubuntu-server release cycle is 6 months, right?
[06:32] <kjaer> I am looking at the employment page. http://www.ubuntu.com/employment#head-9a9627b56fd16e9c958afc0774a78ef29d3c9098
[06:33] <kjaer> What is the goal ? A wysiwyg setup tool, like yast2 (but better) ?
[06:37] <kjaer> Hmm, I probably meant a graphical interface instead of a wysiwyg tool.
[07:10] <ethan> Hi all.  I found a suspected bug on line 47 the /etc/init.d/apache2 on Dapper.   The conditional is if [ $? = 0 ] ; then, and it should probably be if [ $? == 0 ] .  Is this the right place to report this?
[09:19] <Ries> Hey guys, what tool can I use that can monitor services... in this case apache.... when apache stops responding I want a service to detect it and restart apache...
[09:30] <h4wk0> Ries; You can use a crontab!
[09:36] <Ries> I know I can use crontab... but I don't want to write a complete toolset
[10:06] <Ries> I have monit installed now
[10:52] <sahafeez> i am trying to confirm something. i setup mrtg on my server, installed via apt. it seem that under ubuntu it is setup by default to run as a cron job ever 5 mins? i am used to setting it up as a daemon
[11:42] <dj-fu> hey uh
[11:42] <dj-fu> running feisty, apache 2.2
[11:42] <dj-fu> I can't seem to see mod_security in apt-cache
[11:43] <lionel> dj-fu: there is no more mod_security in Debian and Ubuntu
[11:44] <dj-fu> why not
[11:44] <lionel> (due to some licensing issues)
[11:44] <dj-fu> ffs
[11:44] <dj-fu> is it not free?
[11:45] <lionel> some files were not allowed to be redistributed
[11:45] <lionel> let me find the bug
[11:45] <ajmitch> license incompatibilities
[11:46] <dj-fu> rage
[11:46] <dj-fu> can I build it manually, I wonder
[11:46] <ajmitch> no doubt you can
[11:48] <lionel> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libapache-mod-security/+bug/19832 for the details
[11:53] <dj-fu> stupid licensing
[11:53] <dj-fu> what a pain
[12:02] <dj-fu> what about
[12:02] <dj-fu> mod_unique_id ?
[12:03] <dj-fu> nm
[12:03] <dj-fu> found it


[00:04] <n-iCe> Trying ubuntu
[00:05] <n-iCe> Works great
[00:05] <n-iCe> Moving to it
[00:11] <Bashing-om> n-iCe: \o/ shudda done so 5 years ago :P
[00:11] <n-iCe> Why
[00:18] <Bashing-om> n-iCe: "Works great" open source - if then by now you could be a contributor :D
[00:24] <n-iCe> Works awesome
[00:24] <n-iCe> I installed it
[00:24] <n-iCe> Gnime and ubunti are really well made for tablets/touchscreens
[03:08] <xu-help41w> Hi there, I've installed Xubuntu on my machine, and when the installation completed, the "restart now" window came out but the window was frozen and there's nothing I can do about it, so I just restarted manually. All went well until I logged in and found the desktop was just broken, that is, all the icons on the desktop were not properly aligned,
[03:08] <xu-help41w> they are jagged like
[03:08] <xu-help41w> Home
[03:08] <xu-help41w>     FileSystem
[03:08] <xu-help41w>         Trash
[03:08] <xu-help41w> And all other menus and windows I opened just display like that. What can I do to repaire this? Thanks!
[03:10] <dre> reinstall it,
[03:11] <xu-help41w> When I log in from restore mode, the desktop display is all right :')
[03:16] <xu-help41w> When I right click, the menu pop up just looks like this
[03:16] <xu-help41w> Open in New Window
[03:16] <xu-help41w> Create Launcher...
[03:16] <xu-help41w> Create URL Link...Create Folder...Create Document
[03:16] <xu-help41w>           Paste
[03:16] <xu-help41w>           Open Terminal Here
[03:16] <xu-help41w>           Find this folder
[03:17] <xu-help41w> they are splitted into three broken windows...
[03:17] <xu-help41w> Any thing I can do without reinstallation?
[03:20] <guiverc> xu-help41w, I've got a few boxes that are slow to shutdown from *live* systems (feels like a hang, but they get there if you wait), if you need to hurry it I'd recommend using SysRq keys (not sure if by manual restart that's what you meant)
[03:20] <guiverc> Your issue sounds like a graphics issue..
[03:21] <guiverc> some details as to your video hardware may help, but sorry I'm not good with Video hardware, so if you don't get a response here, #ubuntu can be used by Xubuntu users too - you didn't specify a release; which is usually the starting point.
[03:22] <xu-help41w> I installed the latest 20.04.1 on amd64
[03:23] <xu-help41w> And when I tried take a screenshot, the screenshot I got is a proper desktop image
[03:24] <guiverc> :)  my guess is also an nvidia card too, switching to terminal (eg. ctrl+alt+F4) is usually good.. to get details, such as `sudo lshw -C video` or list-hardware of class=video)
[03:25] <xu-help41w> My machine uses Radeon graphics
[03:27] <guiverc> okay amd, but specifics help, eg. my card is a "cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350" as reported by lshw
[03:38] <xu-help33w> I'm now using Windows....and can not run linux command...
[03:38] <xu-help33w> My graphic name is AMD Radeon(TM) Vega 8 Graphics
[03:38] <xu-help33w> verion number 25.20.14012.19004
[09:01] <xu-help4w> Hello everyone!
[09:05] <xu-help4w> I know Ubuntu supports it, I would like to rest assured before installing Xubuntu ...
[09:13] <pmjdebruijn> xu-help4w: why just boot the xubuntu live see, and see if it works before installing
[09:13] <pmjdebruijn> see=USB
[12:32] <extrem|MiSt|> huhu ^.^
[12:32] <extrem|MiSt|> https://xubuntu.org/screenshots/2004_whisker/ << version 20.40?
[12:32] <extrem|MiSt|> ;)

[12:33] <extrem|MiSt|> wot?
[12:33] <Maik> if it would be 2040

[12:34] <extrem|MiSt|> not 20.40?
[12:34] <Maik> i'd be 67 by then
[12:34] <extrem|MiSt|> x3
[12:34] <extrem|MiSt|> anyways who do I need to ping to get that fixed? it made me giggle more than is socialyl acceptable
