| WallyT | Excuse me, I opened the Add/Remove function and attempted to install Rosegarden, but after it downloaded and installed, I searched for Rosegarden but can't find it. It still has a check-mark by it. What's wrong? | 12:35 |

| pppoe_dude | hi... what is the metapackage to install just the xfce desktop environment? | 01:04 |
| pppoe_dude | with all the xfce stuff | 01:05 |
| maxamillion | xfce4 | 01:05 |
| maxamillion | !xfce4 | 01:05 |
| ubotu | xfce4: meta-package for xfce4 dependencies. In component universe, is optional. Version 4.3.90.2 (edgy), package size 4 kB, installed size 48 kB | 01:05 |
| maxamillion | :) | 01:05 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: you will probably want xfce4-goodies too ... that package seems popular | 01:05 |
| pppoe_dude | i get an error... that it has been replaced with xfce4-panel | 01:05 |
| pppoe_dude | im on edgy-server | 01:05 |
| pppoe_dude | :( | 01:06 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: uhmmmm... just a moment | 01:06 |
| pppoe_dude | i added the xubuntu CD to the sources coz i already have it | 01:07 |
| maxamillion | ah, that's why | 01:07 |
| pppoe_dude | should i remove it? | 01:07 |
| maxamillion | remove the cd from the sources and just install from the online repositories | 01:07 |
| pppoe_dude | ok | 01:07 |
| maxamillion | because it appears that the xfce4 meta package isn't installed by default so i don't think it would be on the cd | 01:07 |
| pppoe_dude | still the same problem | 01:08 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: you use aptitude or apt-get? | 01:09 |
| pppoe_dude | apt-get | 01:09 |
| maxamillion | did you do "sudo apt-get update" after you removed the cd from sources.list? | 01:09 |
| pppoe_dude | yes | 01:09 |
| maxamillion | .... and it still gives that error? | 01:09 |
| maxamillion | strange | 01:10 |
| pppoe_dude | very strange | 01:10 |
| pppoe_dude | ill install links and try to use source-o-matic | 01:11 |
| maxamillion | ok | 01:12 |

| FingerPie | hello there | 01:12 |
| maxamillion | hello | 01:12 |
| FingerPie | I was considering an ubuntu distro for an old laptop, less than 100 MB ram, what is suggested? | 01:13 |
| FingerPie | the alternate install of xubuntu? | 01:14 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: can you pastebin the entire output from the attempt to install xfce4? | 01:14 |
| === WallyT [n=communit@blk-222-107-57.eastlink.ca] has left #Xubuntu [] | ||
| maxamillion | FingerPie: yes, the alternate install image | 01:14 |
| pppoe_dude | maxamillion, fairly difficult since im on command-line only | 01:14 |
| FingerPie | is xubunti the smallest of the ubuntus? | 01:15 |
| pppoe_dude | but i managed to get a new sources.list file from source-o-matic | 01:15 |
| pppoe_dude | and elinks... so we'll see how that goes | 01:15 |
| FingerPie | lightest | 01:15 |
| === darrend [n=darren@43-015.adsl.zetnet.co.uk] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| pppoe_dude | maxamillion, ok it worked | 01:16 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: well, you could just do "script apt.log" then "sudo apt-get install xfce4" then Ctrl+D to kill the script log and use links to load the file to pastebin | 01:16 |
| pppoe_dude | maxamillion, i suspect the source file for the edgy-server is faulty | 01:16 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: oh ... it worked, awesome | 01:16 |
| somerville32 | FingerPie, Yup | 01:16 |
| FingerPie | thanks | 01:17 |
| FingerPie | ill try the liveCD | 01:17 |
| somerville32 | FingerPie, How much ram do you have? | 01:17 |
| maxamillion | FingerPie: well, lightest of the official ubuntus ... you could try out Fluxbuntu (its a community project based on ubuntu) | 01:17 |
| FingerPie | somerville Mass? | 01:17 |
| === spasticteapot [n=joe@76.210.61.138] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| maxamillion | FingerPie: also .... with less than 100mb of ram the livecd will not run | 01:17 |
| FingerPie | the laptop has 96 MB and a 3 Gig HD | 01:18 |
| FingerPie | oh | 01:18 |
| FingerPie | it is running slackware now | 01:18 |
| maxamillion | slackware live? | 01:18 |
| FingerPie | but i wanted something a little easier to update | 01:18 |
| somerville32 | FingerPie, I would use the alternative CD | 01:18 |
| spasticteapot | FingerPie: You'll want Puppy Linux or something else suitably light. | 01:18 |
| FingerPie | no install | 01:18 |
| spasticteapot | Or just run from the CLI. | 01:18 |
| maxamillion | FingerPie: oh, ok ... yeah xubuntu or fluxbuntu would serve your purpose well and updating is a breeze | 01:19 |
| FingerPie | alli use it for is IRC and the occasional image viewing | 01:19 |
| FingerPie | thanks | 01:19 |
| maxamillion | no problem, anytime | 01:19 |
| FingerPie | to be honest, linux breathed enough life into this antique that i never got around to throwing it out | 01:20 |
| maxamillion | FingerPie: that's good to hear! ... glad to see people are utilizing the power linux has to offer | 01:22 |
| maxamillion | FingerPie: what desktop environment are you running with Slackware? | 01:22 |
| FingerPie | now KDE | 01:23 |
| maxamillion | FingerPie: Xfce is alot faster then KDE, i think you will like Xubuntu | 01:23 |
| FingerPie | thanks | 01:24 |
| maxamillion | no problem | 01:24 |
| pppoe_dude | ok... | 01:24 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: ? | 01:24 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: lemme guess ... X won't start? | 01:25 |
| pppoe_dude | so, xfce is running... but i only have one little panel on top with a non-functioning icon | 01:25 |
| maxamillion | ohhh ok | 01:25 |
| pppoe_dude | i installed xdm | 01:25 |
| maxamillion | when you right click the panel, does anything happen? | 01:25 |
| pppoe_dude | i have a one-button mouse | 01:25 |
| pppoe_dude | but F11 (i think) emulates the right button | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | gives me a workspace list if clicked on desktop | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | but nothing otherwise | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | oh wait.. | 01:26 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: you on a Mac I assume? | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | F12 gives me "customise/add items etc | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | maxamillion, yes | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | :) | 01:26 |
| pppoe_dude | any quick panel configurations? | 01:27 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: yeah, i ran Xubuntu on my iBookG4 before I had to sell it | 01:27 |
| pppoe_dude | i guess now i can add everything... ok cool :) | 01:27 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: you will want to add a "Xfce Menu" ... :) | 01:27 |
| pppoe_dude | maxamillion, thanks | 01:27 |
| maxamillion | pppoe_dude: anytime :) | 01:27 |

| j1mc | hey, it looks like compiz/beryl/whatever has been deferred from the _ubuntu feisty release. | 02:52 |
| somerville32 | j1mc: How do you know? | 02:52 |
| j1mc | that means that it won't be installed by default in _ubuntu 7.4 | 02:52 |
| j1mc | http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20070205#news | 02:52 |
| j1mc | https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/composite-by-default | 02:53 |
| j1mc | the launchpad notice says "deferred." | 02:53 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, that did it, thanks!!! one last question: the HowTo I'm using says to create a 1GB boot partition and then a swap and then a system partition... is there great wisdom in having separate boot & system partitions? | 02:54 |
| j1mc | somerville32, i guess you would know more about it, or you could find out more about it. | 02:55 |
| j1mc | maybe that is wrong or something. | 02:55 |
| cyberyak | not really. There used to be many reasons. I also used to have a separate partition for /var so that if there were issues with log files, they didn't crash the system. | 02:55 |
| j1mc | . . . it's just a news story, and no official announcement has been made. | 02:55 |
| cyberyak | drx0drx, linux will boot from an extended partition. | 02:56 |
| cyberyak | drx0drx, Windows, however, will not. | 02:56 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, as I discovered. so, you don't think it's still smart to place log files for journalled file systems on a separate partition? | 02:59 |
| cyberyak | for the average machine, no. | 02:59 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, for a mission critical server? | 02:59 |
| cyberyak | you shouldn't be dual booting a mission critical server. | 03:00 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, no choice -- we have to create VM Images on the same hardware and the Linux VM builder freezes so we have to use Windows for that, but once it's up, we won't need it | 03:01 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, what was in the 1GB boot partition anyway? and, how did the installer know what to put in /boot versus putting everything in / ? | 03:01 |
| cyberyak | I don't typically create a boot partition that big. | 03:02 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, so if I create a /boot in the Extended partition, will the installer know what to put there or do I have to manually move things there later? | 03:02 |
| cyberyak | why are you making this so difficult? | 03:03 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, i'm just asking because it was in the FAQ and I have no idea why nor the value. | 03:04 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Everything past /boot in the directory structure would be placed in /boot, even if it were a separate partition. | 03:04 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | The value is because /boot holds your bootable kernel. Having it on a separate partition prevents some scenarios which could hose that. | 03:04 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, would you create a /boot in the extended partition on a mission critical server? | 03:05 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, if so, do you think 1GB is just right or too large or too small? | 03:06 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Depends on what I'm doing with the server; most likely, it's an unnecessary precaution. | 03:06 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, reliability and recoverability are tantamount over speed & ease of configuration. | 03:06 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Way too large... /boot on my system is currently 8.3MB. | 03:06 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, should I forget about a separate boot or do you think it provides some value? What are the scenarios it protects against? | 03:07 |
| j1mc | my /boot partition is around 50mb, but i hear that's a lot . . . | 03:08 |
| j1mc | i'm not sure how much of it is taken, but i know i have plenty of space. | 03:09 |
| cyberyak | yeah, we used to say 100 meg when you were placing kernels there. | 03:09 |
| === Mlittle [n=Mlittle@rn-was3a19.uwaterloo.ca] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| PuMpErNiCkLe | drx0drx: File system corruption, mostly. Separating it from other parts makes it easier to recover /boot, even if other sections get ruined. | 03:09 |

| FordPrefectNZ | ello ello. anyone here know of a non-GNOME way to change a metacity theme? or anything to do with metacity come to think of it... thankies in advance | 03:16 |
| somerville32 | Metacity is apart of Gnome | 03:17 |
| somerville32 | So no | 03:17 |
| FordPrefectNZ | im sure there was at some stage a seperate little program to control it | 03:18 |
| FordPrefectNZ | i know its a part of gnome, but that doesnt stop people from using kwin in odd places.. :P | 03:18 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, gparted keeps reporting my 40GB ext3 partition as 1GB, reports swap OK? | 03:19 |
| cyberyak | FordPrefectNZ, check out xwinman.org they may have a link to some metacity stuff. | 03:19 |
| FordPrefectNZ | i have | 03:19 |
| cyberyak | that's the only place I'd know to look. | 03:19 |
| FordPrefectNZ | but ah found it... oh yes, of course its something we wouldnt have in the repos lol | 03:20 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, and of course, it won't install because it says the partition is too small! | 03:21 |
| cyberyak | drx0drx, do you have windows installed? | 03:21 |
| FordPrefectNZ | in which case, ill pose you another question. whats a good window manager besides xfwm4 to use with xfce4? (dont say xfwm4 integrates well so you should use it, it has a few niggly annoyances i cant live with) | 03:21 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, yes, but only on the first partition (FAT32) | 03:21 |
| cyberyak | and how much free space do you have after that partition? | 03:22 |
| drx0drx | None, there is a 173.70GB Extended partition, but I'd be happy to blow it away for now. | 03:23 |
| cyberyak | drx0drx, run fdisk | 03:23 |
| cyberyak | delete all but that windows partition | 03:23 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, I did -- that's what you helped me accomplish, happy to do it again? | 03:24 |
| cyberyak | drx0drx, then, when you have a 173G of free space, do the install. | 03:25 |
| cyberyak | ahhh, wait. | 03:25 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, why is my FAT32 Windows partition have a flag "boot"? | 03:26 |
| cyberyak | because that is the bootable partition. | 03:26 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, I deleted the Extended partition and it still sees the 40GB / partition as 1GB | 03:26 |

| drx0drx | cyberyak, now it said "failed to create a file system" | 03:37 |
| cyberyak | that's never good. | 03:38 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, about 1/2 way through the install | 03:38 |
| cyberyak | I'd say, boot to the live cd, drop out to command prompt, run fdisk and set up the partitions. | 03:40 |
| drx0drx | cyberyak, now it says "Installer crashed" | 03:41 |
| cyberyak | that can't be good. | 03:41 |

| drx0drx | cyberyak, 6.06 LTS (I think it's 32-bit, it's the one they ship out) | 03:55 |
| cyberyak | If it were me, and I were running a 64 bit processor, I would use the most recent stable version and the 64 bit CD. | 03:57 |
| cyberyak | I would suggest downloading the edgy eft 64 bit desktop or alternate cd. | 03:58 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | j1mc: It's a kernel change that occurred in 2.6.19. http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_19 | 04:01 |

| Dh3Y0 | i m trying to install libsndfile-1.0.17 but at the end this shows up "Compiling some other packages against libsndfile may require the addition of "/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig" to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable." how do i complete the installation | 12:02 |
| kalikiana | Dh3Y0, so does it actuall output an error message apart from that? | 12:07 |
| Dh3Y0 | kalikiana; i dont understand what u mean? | 12:08 |
| Dh3Y0 | kalikiana; ?, it says configuration complete but i still cant install hydrogen it says the libsndfile is stil missing | 12:11 |
| kalikiana | Dh3Y0, so you did ./configure && sudo make install? | 12:13 |
| kalikiana | were there spcific errors? did you install it to the right path? | 12:14 |
| Dh3Y0 | i just went to the directory and typed ./configure | 12:14 |
| Dh3Y0 | i m still new | 12:14 |
| kalikiana | ah, ok. it just wasn't clear to me what you did. | 12:15 |
| kalikiana | so configure gave you no errors? | 12:16 |
| Dh3Y0 | no just the above | 12:16 |
| kalikiana | ok, so type "sudo make install". | 12:16 |
| kalikiana | this will install it to /usr/local/bin i assume. | 12:17 |
| Dh3Y0 | yay its working | 12:17 |
| Dh3Y0 | so y did that come up btw | 12:17 |
| kalikiana | call it a notice, not an error. in some cases the program requiring libsndfile might not find it on its own, so you can specify the path manually. | 12:18 |

| TheSheep | PuMpErNiCkLe: if it was missing, woudn't the error be different? | 04:00 |
| alnokta | libcairo2-dev is already the newest version. | 04:01 |
| TheSheep | alnokta: gdk? | 04:01 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | TheSheep: No, not really. It's an undefined reference - it can't find what's it's supposed to be referencing. | 04:01 |
| TheSheep | alnokta: what version of xubuntu is that? | 04:02 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Ideally, you'd get an error during the initial configuration. | 04:02 |

| alnokta | the one after dapper | 04:02 |

| TheSheep | PuMpErNiCkLe: this looks like the library is there, but it is missing some symbols | 04:03 |
| TheSheep | PuMpErNiCkLe: as if they weren't in that version yet | 04:03 |
| TheSheep | PuMpErNiCkLe: or there is a missing -l | 04:04 |
| alnokta | what is the name of 'gdk' package? | 04:04 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | It's the same error for both cases. | 04:04 |
| alnokta | gdk-imlib1 - compatibility package for gdk-imlib11 ? | 04:04 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | It looks like those are defined in cairo-xlib.h, which is provided by libcairo2-dev. | 04:08 |
| alnokta | is it fixable? | 04:08 |
| TheSheep | alnokta: have you tried asking at #xfce? | 04:09 |
| TheSheep | alnokta: they might know it better | 04:09 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | cairo-xlib.h gets installed to /usr/include/cairo, but your build is searching for it in /usr/local/include/cairo, so unless it's providing the library itself, it would fail like this. | 04:09 |
| alnokta | TheSheep, they directed me at first to here :) , then i asked that question, one said : | 04:09 |

| SSmith | Hi, I am trying to install themes, but they don't seem to be updating in the User Interface Settings area, am I doing something wrong? | 04:38 |
| SSmith | I am simply extracting them into ~/.themes | 04:38 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: are they gtk2 themes or xfce4 themes? | 04:39 |
| hyper_ch | TheSheep: I just downloaded and installed the .deb file... is it now accessible through the applications menu? | 04:39 |
| SSmith | gtk2 | 04:39 |
| TheSheep | hyper_ch: no, that's just a theme engine. Now you need a theme that makes use of it. See the http://gnome-look.org for some nice murrine themes | 04:40 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: is there the gtkrc file? | 04:40 |
| Commander-Crowe | how do I use sha1sum? | 04:40 |
| SSmith | TheSheep: yes | 04:40 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: in what directory? | 04:40 |
| TheSheep | Commander-Crowe: man sha1sum | 04:41 |
| SSmith | its a few directories down in .themes | 04:41 |
| SSmith | should I move everything up to the top directory? | 04:41 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: no, it should be in ~/.themes/ThemeName/gtk-2.0/gtkrc | 04:41 |
| SSmith | yeah, thats where it is | 04:42 |
| TheSheep | should work :/ | 04:42 |
| SSmith | one sec, I just messed some stuff up. | 04:42 |
| SSmith | heh. | 04:42 |
| SSmith | sorry, I was wrong, it was in the themename/subname/gtk-2.0 | 04:43 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: move it one level up | 04:43 |
| TheSheep | to ~/.themes/sybname/gtk-2.0/ | 04:43 |
| SSmith | will do, as soon as xarchiver decides to co-operate. | 04:44 |
| SSmith | I think i'm going to replace this program, it never works like I want it to. | 04:44 |
| TheSheep | SSmith: check out sqeeze | 04:44 |

| ottod | usb flash drive does not appear anymore on xubuntu desktop. it did work before, it does not now. it shows and works ok on thunar. How can I reenable show on desktop? | 04:45 |
| TheSheep | ottod: do any other icons show on your desktop? | 04:46 |
| ottod | yes, the files i have in there | 04:47 |
| TheSheep | Commander-Crowe: check file name and file permissions | 04:47 |
| TheSheep | ottod: do you have file ~/.config/xfce4/desktop/desktoprc ? | 04:48 |

| Commander-Crowe | dang it | 04:52 |
| Commander-Crowe | I think it failed | 04:52 |

| ubotu | automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use.
