| somerville32 | And good luck | 02:29 |
| someonww | how do i mount a FAT partitoin? | 02:29 |
| somerville32 | someonww, After adding the applet, just select the partition and it'll mount it | 02:30 |
| somerville32 | someonww, It might be mounted already | 02:30 |
| somerville32 | If so, it would be in /media/ | 02:30 |
| someonww | mm... didn't see it | 02:30 |
| somerville32 | Use the "Mount Devices" applet | 02:32 |

| somerville32 | Hello! :) | 03:27 |
| j1mc | hi somerville32 :) | 03:27 |
| j1mc | just kinda came on here to give mad props to the new xubuntu-user mailing list. kinda get the word out or something. | 03:28 |
| j1mc | hopefully get some regular users to use it. | 03:29 |
| somerville32 | :) | 03:29 |
| somerville32 | Indeed | 03:29 |
| j1mc | thanks for your response to my post there, by the way. | 03:29 |
| j1mc | i'm downloading the alternate install cd now. | 03:29 |
| j1mc | i didn't know that there were nightlies available for test, and had only tested herd 1, and it did nothing. | 03:30 |

| somerville32 | :) | 03:42 |
| j1mc | so, basically, the checkbox things are just to help you record your own progress, and then if something doesn't work . . . | 03:43 |
| j1mc | then you check and see if there's a bug report on it already . . . | 03:44 |
| j1mc | and go from there. | 03:44 |
| j1mc | got it. :) | 03:44 |
| somerville32 | Well, make sure to mark if it is successful too | 03:44 |
| j1mc | do you actually submit the successful / unsuccessful report somewhere, though? i don't see where you'd do that. | 03:44 |
| j1mc | ah, it's a wiki . . . so i can edit it?? | 03:45 |

| jack_ | hi... is there a way to easily change from xubuntu to ubuntu.. or just run the ubuntu install disk and have it format the drive? | 03:50 |
| j1mc | i think that you can just run sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, but others on here can confirm. | 03:53 |
| jack_ | well | 03:54 |
| jack_ | if i d/l just normal ubuntu and install it normally having it format the drive.. there won't be problems right? | 03:55 |
| somerville32 | IT'll remove Xubuntu and all your data on the disk | 03:55 |
| somerville32 | j1mc: You would file a bug report and then add it to the reported bugs at the end | 03:56 |

| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 04:17 |
| cellofellow | ClamAV if you insist on antivirus. | 04:18 |
| Jester45 | most antivirus for linux scans for windows virus so you dont spread them | 04:18 |

| Jester45 | shoulw remove most | 04:52 |
| jack_ | thanks for the help i was d/l ubuntu from the site was just gonna format the disk but the d/l froze at 96%.. lol | 04:54 |
| Jester45 | np | 04:56 |
| Jester45 | cellofellow: so what where you talking about /dev anbd usb drives | 04:56 |
| cellofellow | if you put, say, something to do with /dev/sda1 which is for USB drives on my system in fstab, it'll break the little udev/hald thing that makes those icons appear. From experience. :) | 04:58 |
| Jester45 | so how do i fix this | 04:59 |
| cellofellow | no idea. | 05:00 |
| cellofellow | are they creating /dev files when you plug in? | 05:01 |
| Jester45 | not sure | 05:01 |
| Jester45 | how do i know | 05:01 |
| cellofellow | ls -l /dev/sd* | 05:02 |
| cellofellow | if you don't have sata/scsi drives, should only return something if the usb drives are being detected. | 05:02 |
| Jester45 | ok but how do i know what one | 05:02 |
| Jester45 | ok | 05:02 |
| cellofellow | lsusb | 05:02 |
| cellofellow | I dunno | 05:02 |
| Jester45 | Bus 001 Device 002: ID 062a:0102 Creative Labs | 05:03 |
| Jester45 | Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 05:03 |
| Jester45 | for lsusb | 05:03 |
| cellofellow | any files in /dev ? | 05:03 |
| Jester45 | im using a usb hub one one | 05:03 |
| Jester45 | nothing with /dev/sd | 05:04 |
| cellofellow | maybe that's the problem, though I don't think it should be. | 05:04 |
| Jester45 | it worked b4 | 05:04 |
| cellofellow | * included? | 05:04 |
| Jester45 | the only things with s is | 05:05 |
| cellofellow | is udev even running? | 05:05 |
| Jester45 | shm snapshot snd sndstat stderr stdin stdout | 05:06 |
| Jester45 | yes it is | 05:06 |
| cellofellow | what about hald? | 05:07 |
| Jester45 | a few of them | 05:07 |
| cellofellow | :/ | 05:07 |
| cellofellow | I have no idea what to do. | 05:07 |
| cellofellow | Do CD's show on the desktop? | 05:08 |
| cellofellow | BRB | 05:08 |
| Jester45 | yes they do | 05:08 |
| Jester45 | my ipod works on the same port | 05:09 |
| cellofellow | well, you got me. | 05:11 |
| Jester45 | is there a way to get to the drives without the icons? | 05:11 |
| cellofellow | if there's a /dev file, then you just mount it. | 05:12 |
| Jester45 | what one | 05:12 |
| Jester45 | i dont know these things | 05:12 |
| cellofellow | sd** | 05:12 |
| cellofellow | like my USB Zip drive is sda for the drive, and sda4 for the disk. | 05:12 |
| Jester45 | ok | 05:14 |
| Jester45 | well | 05:20 |
| Jester45 | thats stupid i guess i will wait from someone else | 05:21 |
| Jester45 | thanks for help | 05:21 |
| MagicFab | what is the difference between ubuntu 6.06 and 6.06.1 ? | 05:23 |
| somerville32 | MagicFab: 6.06 is the original release while 6.06.1 has updated packages | 05:24 |
| MagicFab | I know, but which ones :) | 05:24 |
| cellofellow | seeing as Dapper will stick with us for a while yet, we may see a 6.06.2 and onward. | 05:24 |
| somerville32 | We will see 6.06.2 | 05:24 |
| somerville32 | And relatively soon | 05:25 |
| somerville32 | MagicFab: all kinds of stuff really | 05:25 |
| === cellofellow uses 6.10, so it doesn't matter. | ||

| cellofellow | :) | 05:33 |
| spierepf | I'm looking for some help with gdm on xubuntu. | 05:34 |
| cellofellow | well, what is it? | 05:34 |
| spierepf | I'm trying to run vnc so that it presents a gdmgreeter. | 05:35 |
| cellofellow | oh. I've heard VNC can do that, but I use XDMCP instead. | 05:35 |
| spierepf | The problem is that the greeter closes itself before getting presented. I'm not sure why. | 05:35 |
| === dredhammer [n=dredhamm@pool-71-247-15-204.nycmny.east.verizon.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| spierepf | I've only used XDMCP on local networks. | 05:38 |
| cellofellow | oh, if you want Internet, then yeah, VNC or X over SSH | 05:38 |
| cellofellow | dunno about getting a GDM Greeter when connecting with VNC though. Never tried that. | 05:39 |
| grumpymole | spierepf: are you on the latest fiesty? | 05:39 |
| spierepf | no, I'm on edgy. | 05:40 |
| grumpymole | ok, there is a bug on fiesty (not sure if it affects others) where xvnc4server shuts down immediately on connecting | 05:41 |
| grumpymole | bug #78282 | 05:42 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 78282 in vnc4 "vnc4server does not start Desktop environment after security update" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/78282 | 05:42 |
| MagicFab | ok found the announce. https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2006-August/000088.html | 05:42 |
| grumpymole | spierepf: not sure if the security update also went to edgy | 05:44 |
| grumpymole | spierepf: just checked the bug - it also affects edgy. | 05:45 |
| grumpymole | if you are up-to-date on edgy then you would have also received the vnc4server update a few days ago | 05:45 |
| spierepf | Hmmm. That could be it. | 05:46 |

| somerville32 | The engine might be | 12:43 |
| toxik` | Oh :-/ | 12:44 |
| toxik` | Portage has ioQuake3 | 12:44 |
| somerville32 | Not the entire thing | 12:44 |
| somerville32 | It would be illegal | 12:44 |
| toxik` | No, it misses pak0 | 12:45 |
| toxik` | Of course | 12:45 |
| toxik` | ioQuake3 doesn't come with pak0 so :-) | 12:45 |

| Ro_Vai | hey this is going to sound really stupid but to get to your cd rom drive from a terminal its cd /media/cdrom right? | 03:19 |
| gabkdll1 | Ro_Vai: that is correct | 03:20 |
| Ro_Vai | ok then i'm having problems accessing my drive | 03:21 |
| Ro_Vai | ls just kicks me back to the command line | 03:21 |
| gabkdll1 | I don't really follow you. When you are working with the program "Terminal", everything you do is on the command line. What do you mean? | 03:23 |
| gabkdll1 | When you do: "cd /media/cdrom" , does the prompt tell you that you have in fact moved to the directory /media/cdrom/ ? | 03:24 |
| Ro_Vai | ls is sopposed to list whats inside of your current directory but mine returns nothing | 03:24 |
| Ro_Vai | and yes | 03:24 |
| gabkdll1 | Ah, you are trying to do "ls /media/cdrom" ? | 03:24 |
| Ro_Vai | no | 03:25 |
| Ro_Vai | cd /media/cdrom | 03:25 |
| Ro_Vai | then ls | 03:25 |
| gabkdll1 | Is there something in the drive ? :) | 03:25 |
| Ro_Vai | yes | 03:25 |
| somerville32 | Is the cd-rom mounted? | 03:25 |
| Ro_Vai | i can access it and view the files from the pretty little icon thats on my desktop | 03:25 |
| Ro_Vai | so i'm guessing yes | 03:26 |
| somerville32 | type: sudo mount /media/cdrom0 | 03:26 |
| Ro_Vai | mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist | 03:26 |

| jonty_rocks3 | help | 05:55 |
| jonty_rocks3 | is there an xubuntu driver for Speedtouch 330 USB? | 05:56 |
| jonty_rocks3 | anyone? | 06:01 |
| gabkdll1 | jonty_rocks3: hi | 06:03 |
| jonty_rocks3 | hello! | 06:04 |
| jonty_rocks3 | is there an xubuntu driver for Speedtouch 330? | 06:04 |
| gabkdll1 | the manufacturer says that there is linux support through an open source driver | 06:04 |
| gabkdll1 | http://www.speedtouchdsl.com/supuser.htm | 06:04 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i downloaded one but when it extracted it just said extracting for 4 hours =S | 06:05 |
| jonty_rocks3 | is it thhe firmware? | 06:06 |
| gabkdll1 | are you running xubuntu now, or just thinking about it | 06:06 |
| gabkdll1 | ? | 06:06 |
| jonty_rocks3 | am running on my laptop | 06:07 |
| jonty_rocks3 | this my pc | 06:08 |
| gabkdll1 | I suspect that if the open source driver is at all stable, it probably was included with the default *ubuntu kernel | 06:09 |
| jonty_rocks3 | well i plugged it in and nothing happened | 06:09 |
| gabkdll1 | did you check dmesg ? | 06:10 |
| jonty_rocks3 | what> | 06:10 |
| jonty_rocks3 | ? | 06:10 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i'm a noob =( | 06:10 |
| gabkdll1 | run "dmesg" in a Terminal | 06:10 |
| jonty_rocks3 | one sec | 06:11 |
| gabkdll1 | it will generate a lot of output | 06:11 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i cant cause i only got 1 modem | 06:11 |
| jonty_rocks3 | which i am using | 06:11 |
| jonty_rocks3 | will try later thnx | 06:11 |
| jonty_rocks3 | btw which is better? Debian or Slackware? | 06:11 |
| gabkdll1 | also, maybe you need to reboot | 06:11 |
| jonty_rocks3 | also i get a load of lines at the bottom of thhe screen | 06:12 |
| gabkdll1 | from what I hear, Slackware is more involved, but you learn a lot along the way | 06:12 |
| gabkdll1 | "dmesg | tail" would probably have sufficed | 06:13 |
| gabkdll1 | dmesg is for viewing kernel messages | 06:13 |
| jonty_rocks3 | what about the lines on the screen it is so annoying | 06:13 |
| === MDCore [n=gavin@41.207.231.41] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| gabkdll1 | you get those lines all the time ? | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yup | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | when on external display it is fine | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | just on laptop | 06:15 |
| gabkdll1 | and just since you installed linux? | 06:15 |
| MDCore | hey all; I'm trying out xubuntu on parallel with kubuntu. it doesn't do this in kde but in xfce it seems to be messing with shift-punctuation e.g. shift-' and shift-" | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yep | 06:15 |
| MDCore | how do I turn it off ? | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | windows was fine | 06:15 |
| jonty_rocks3 | gabkdll1 shall i take a photo and send u it? | 06:16 |
| jonty_rocks3 | screen* | 06:16 |
| gabkdll1 | sure | 06:16 |
| jonty_rocks3 | how i do that? | 06:16 |
| jonty_rocks3 | lol i'm nooooob | 06:16 |
| jonty_rocks3 | found it | 06:18 |
| MDCore | any ideas ? | 06:18 |
| jonty_rocks3 | MDCore i'm a noob soz | 06:19 |
| MDCore | np | 06:19 |
| jonty_rocks3 | gabkdll1 just copying to pc now | 06:25 |
| gabkdll1 | jonty_rocks3: I am anxious to see if those lines even show up in the screenshot | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | they do | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i checked | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | grrr | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | will have to send via email | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | my dcc crap | 06:25 |
| gabkdll1 | you can't post it publically? I am actually not a xubuntu developer or anything like that | 06:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yes one sec | 06:25 |
| gabkdll1 | MDCore: you mean, when you press Shift-' or Shift-" , nothing happens? | 06:26 |
| MDCore | gabkdll1: Yes.. until I press another key. If I press ' then ' again I get | 06:27 |
| jonty_rocks3 | ok here is the screenshot: http://freespace.virgin.net/jonty.oglesby/Screenshot.png | 06:27 |
| MDCore | but if I get press ' then <space> I get the correct character. | 06:27 |
| MDCore | It as if my keyboard has decided to become international all of a sudden. | 06:27 |
| jonty_rocks3 | gabkdll1 u see the lines on screen? | 06:28 |
| gabkdll1 | MDCore: sounds like deadkeys behavior. | 06:28 |
| gabkdll1 | jonty_rocks3: yes, those lines are scary | 06:28 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yup its anooying | 06:28 |
| jonty_rocks3 | can i get rid of em? | 06:28 |
| MDCore | gabkdll1: ok ?? how do I turn it off? | 06:28 |
| jonty_rocks3 | go into keyboard settings and change key mapping? | 06:29 |
| jonty_rocks3 | key map code thing | 06:29 |
| gabkdll1 | jonty_rocks3: I am not an expert, but my guess would be that the X11 device driver is not playing nice with your hardware | 06:29 |
| jonty_rocks3 | can i get round that? | 06:29 |
| gabkdll1 | jonty_rocks3: can you check which driver you are using in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:30 |
| jonty_rocks3 | one sec plz | 06:31 |
| gabkdll1 | !xconfig | MDCore | 06:31 |
| ubotu | MDCore: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg". To configure only the driver and resolution, type: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh". | 06:31 |
| jonty_rocks3 | erf when i scroll down the lines scroll up page too =( | 06:32 |
| MDCore | I dunno if it is an X thing. When I in KDE I don have this problem... | 06:32 |
| MDCore | don't | 06:32 |
| gabkdll1 | that might be useful to you too, jonty_rocks3 | 06:32 |

| jonty_rocks3 | it is just blank file!!! | 07:22 |
| jonty_rocks3 | will take hours to type it all out lol | 07:22 |
| Maximilian1st | this seems quite impossible to me. Sorry I came later in the discussion. Are you trying to copy your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and you mean it is not possible? | 07:23 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yes i trying to copy it to my pc | 07:23 |
| jonty_rocks3 | so i can paste here | 07:23 |
| jonty_rocks3 | my laptop (xubuntu) cannot access internet | 07:23 |
| jonty_rocks3 | but my pc (windows) can | 07:23 |
| Maximilian1st | Don't you have a usb stick? | 07:23 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yes | 07:23 |
| Maximilian1st | So? | 07:24 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i just transfered but came out on pc as nothing | 07:24 |
| jonty_rocks3 | and empty file | 07:24 |
| Maximilian1st | Are you using Xfce? | 07:24 |
| jonty_rocks3 | yeees | 07:24 |
| Maximilian1st | Obviously. | 07:24 |
| jonty_rocks3 | soooo.... | 07:25 |
| Maximilian1st | plug the stick in and copy to it, when copied, verify the file in thunar. If all is ok, right click on the USB stick icon and choose unmount. | 07:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | oh | 07:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i didnt unmount | 07:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | i pulled it out | 07:25 |
| Maximilian1st | It should work, if I'm not mixing svn Xfce... | 07:25 |
| jonty_rocks3 | ah brill | 07:26 |
| Maximilian1st | Well you should, unmount. Linux is not windows. Linux, sometimes, waits before copying files to a volume, when you issue the unmount command, it suddenly urges the copy action. | 07:26 |

| j0nty | was on Win 98 and Win ME | 07:45 |

| j0nty | ? | 07:48 |
| j0nty | i used the screenshot addon | 07:49 |
| Maximilian1st | j0nty, check this http://linux-on-laptops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135 | 07:49 |

| somerville32 | jonty_rocks3, Please disable your away notifier :) | 08:17 |
| jonty_rocks3 | plus i am going for a shower | 08:17 |
| jarnos | maxamillion, OK, I'll try soon. | 08:17 |
| jonty_rocks3 | could you be so kind and send me info to jonty.oglesby@virgin.net | 08:17 |
| somerville32 | As for the lines of the screen, it looks like you need to upgrade your drivers | 08:17 |
| jonty_rocks3 | if u find out a solution | 08:17 |
| somerville32 | or switch to vesa | 08:18 |
| Maximilian1st | jonty_rocks3, It's not you but the problem with the laptop that stinks... | 08:18 |
| jonty_rocks3 | somerville32 where can i get updated drivers? | 08:18 |
| jonty_rocks3 | vesa? | 08:18 |
| somerville32 | jonty_rocks3, What video card do you have? | 08:18 |
| Maximilian1st | jonty_rocks3, already try the vesa driver... | 08:18 |
| jonty_rocks3 | Trident | 08:18 |
| Maximilian1st | trident | 08:18 |
| somerville32 | jonty_rocks3, There are some stuff we can try but it might just be better to buy a new video card. Trident is old, isn't it? | 08:19 |
| Maximilian1st | He has Trident Microsystems Cyber 9525 | 08:19 |
| jonty_rocks3 | one sec i gonna reboot | 08:19 |
| Maximilian1st | It is old and CRAP! | 08:19 |

| === maxamillion [n=adam@ngl-1-14.shsu.edu] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| somerville32 | By installing Armorak and Konqueror, you've most likely pulled in lots of KDE dependencies | 09:42 |
| Vilhelm1 | yes I've done | 09:43 |
| Vilhelm1 | that's why I think I can change they look in XFCE with an application | 09:44 |
| Vilhelm1 | but I don't know what it is | 09:44 |
| maxamillion | Vilhelm1: KDE applications are written in Qt, Xfce is written in GTK ... you won't be able to have the theme match exactly | 09:45 |
