[05:35] i have a 19 inch dell monitor.....what can be the problem? [05:36] cellofellow: apt-cache != apt-get [05:36] what can be the problem? [05:36] I know, but apt-get update updates the apt-cache, and so does aptitude [05:37] psykidellic: sounds like X is trying to display out of range ... could be because your graphics card supports some crazy hi resolution [05:37] yeah, don't do super high refresh rates or resolutions [05:37] max it supports 1280 X [05:37] cellofellow: yeah, but aptitude does more checking and i'm not sure if you update apt-get if aptitude gets all the info its supposed to [05:37] never run into any problems here, adam. [05:38] maxamillion and cellofellow: how do i change it? [05:38] psykidellic: right, but if you graphics card can push 1600x1200, then X probably runs at that ... [05:38] it was by deafult [05:38] The update is the same. It's just a list. [05:38] cellofellow: fair enough [05:38] It's during the install procedure that it does it's special dependency tracking.

[07:21] just a quick question -- how can I remove Xubuntu's default application, without removing the package "Xubuntu-desktop" [07:21] it seems like when I try to remove GXINE -- it always try to remove xubuntu-desktop with it [07:22] how are you trying to remove it? [07:22] and I know that if I remove xubuntu desktop, well, it aint gonna work no more, (i tried yesterday when I tried the same thing, but with ubuntu. It removed ubuntu-desktop and LOL!!) [07:22] I tried by apt-get -remove, and I tried with synaptic [07:22] maybe there's some kind of special command so that it removes just the gxine, not the whole deal? [07:23] if this is not possible.. hmm.. [07:23] how about, really defining the default application of a file extension -- not with Thunar, but universally defining the default application (i'm having some problem with Opera that's why) [07:27] ? :(.. === aktee [n=marthaja@bas1-montrealak-1128547652.dsl.bell.ca] has left #xubuntu [] === rexbinary [n=rexbinar@unaffiliated/rexbinary] has joined #xubuntu === Commander-Crowe [n=thomas@unaffiliated/Commander-Crowe] has joined #xubuntu === firefish [n=yhy@218.2.201.80] has joined #xubuntu [07:33] hi === tuna-fish- [n=tuna@tunamasiina.kortex.jyu.fi] has joined #xubuntu === DarthShrine [n=angus@pdpc/supporter/student/DarthShrine] has joined #xubuntu === undertitan [n=dan@adsl-68-93-133-225.dsl.austtx.swbell.net] has joined #xubuntu === undertitan [n=dan@adsl-68-93-133-225.dsl.austtx.swbell.net] has left #xubuntu [] === aktee [n=marthaja@bas1-montrealak-1128547652.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #xubuntu === darren1 is now known as darrend [08:00] aktee: with regards to your question about removing xubuntu-desktop: [08:01] xubuntu-desktop is just a meta-package that tells what standard apps to install [08:01] so.. it's safe to remove? [08:01] removing it won't actually remove any of those apps. it sounds worse than it is. [08:01] PHEW :| [08:01] WOW last time I did it for ubuntu-desktop, It didn't boot anymore [08:01] LOL [08:02] it won't remove your actual desktop [08:02] must have done something wrong [08:02] cool thing ! [08:02] yesss. [08:02] I have another question.. hmm.. [08:03] ask [08:03] i know, using linux means that I should RTFM, but.. I'm not sure where to search this, in ubuntu, in xubuntu, in linux in general, in xfce, etc.. [08:03] hmm, I must have misconfigured my keyboard at the installation [08:03] because I ALT-CAR + 2 doesnt give me the "e-mail A" anymore [08:03] but when i configure it for 104 standard keyboard, it works [08:04] the thing is, I don't know how to put it default [08:04] don't know offhand, but someone else here might [08:05] so, you want to make 104 standard keyboard your default? [08:05] yeah, wait, i think i found it [08:05] it's probably concerning Xorg [08:05] (sorry kinda new to this.) [08:06] http://ubuntu.sabza.org/2006/10/13/xubuntu-easily-switch-keyboard-layout/ [08:06] might be interesting [08:07] yes, but that's for switching keyboard layout, while I only want 1. [08:07] oh look [08:07] http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=322374 [08:07] :D [08:07] ah, ok [08:08] never had to change my keyboard layout before [08:08] hmm.. [08:09] hmm ... /etc/X11/xorg.conf that's supposed to show me something when I open it with Mousepad, right? [08:09] sure [08:10] oop, got it. I went too fast and typed Xorg.config hahahah my bad :) [08:10] aktee: you can blame your keyboard ;) [08:10] hmm.. doesn't work [08:10] it's already 104.. and layout is already CA [08:11] aw.. [08:12] o well, thanks for the help :D [08:12] aktee: what is the CAR in ALT_CAR + 2 [08:12] the Commercial A [08:12] hmm [08:13] you know, before gmail.com [08:13] ok [08:13] like, aktee"a"gmail.com [08:13] seems like my AltCar just doesnt work [08:13] with you now [08:13] can't do the wavy thing too. (dunno it's named) [08:13] tilde [08:14] exactly [08:14] =) [08:14] so you are pressing shift + 2 to get @? [08:14] or ALT key? [08:14] no, I can't do it at all lol [08:15] it's supposed to be ctrl+alt+2 [08:15] or Alt-CAR + 2 [08:15] but now it's neither of them [08:15] maybe it's because of Xgl [08:15] trouble came after xgl and beryl [08:15] those are two messy programs :) [08:15] i thought it might be related to the fact that xubuntu automatically installs with the right-hand alt key disabled [08:16] ? [08:16] wow [08:16] where? [08:16] :| maybe it's that [08:16] try the other alt key [08:17] hmm it's assigned to a hotkey for XGL [08:17] now that I think about it.. with the other ALT, it doesnt execute the hotkey [08:17] ... hmm.. [08:17] it can be fixed. just getting a link [08:18] http://grumpymole.blogspot.com/2006/11/i-guess-i-should-have-little-more-faith.html [08:18] i thought the key on my old laptop was dying. turned out it was this. === stork [n=sh2-136@storkey.plus.com] has joined #xubuntu [08:19] oh you got a blog!

[07:30] was that a question? [07:30] guess it was an observation [07:30] ok [07:31] becuase i dont know what i have to be honest [07:31] like libgtk2.0.0 version 2.12.0 is expected but 2.10.3 is to be installed [07:32] yeah, but how do i give it what it expects? [07:32] not sure [07:32] you will have to give it a repo that contains the packegs it wants perhaps [07:32] maybe get synaptic to o an update [07:33] well i added the nvidia repo to /etc/apt/sources.list and i enabled the restricted repos in synaptic [07:33] and what version of Xubuntu are you running? breezy, dapper, edgy? [07:34] i whould guess edgy [07:34] i downloaded it august 06 [07:35] ok, now make sure you are getting stuff from the edgy repos, by inspecting sources.list [07:35] no [07:35] dapper [07:35] he would have dapper [07:36] my guess would be to be able to use that package you may have to upgrade to edgy possibly, but check what the how-to lists as requirement [07:36] is there any place where i can copy/paste a new sources.list that will contain all the repos i will need for awhile? [07:37] thats a bad idea [07:37] esc: whats the benifit of upgrading to edgy? [07:37] you'll get your system out of sync [07:37] hehe [07:37] edgy isn't so buggie [07:37] yeah ill look at a changelog :) [07:37] well, i guess the benefit may be to be able to use that package you want [07:38] you'll have more recent versions of software [07:38] also a few questions: does edgy auto mount ntfs partitions by defualt? and will it do the same for external media such as my ipod? [07:38] dunno, i usually mount stuff manually [07:39] surgy, yes it will [07:39] becuase i backed up all my emus and my movies to my secondary windows hdd and now i will need to access those [07:39] kewl [07:39] you would need to find a special driver to write to it though [07:40] ok time to find edgy [07:40] but then again this machine here is still on breezy :-) [07:40] you can read and exicute it though === gripir is now known as gripiR [07:40] commander-crowe: i plane on copy/paste the whole hdd to this one and then converting it to linux partition [07:41] then you cool [07:41] your [07:41] you may need to install some packages from synaptic but thats really easy [07:41] so edgy is the latest huh?
