| Orionisti | Hi again | 01:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Orionisti | First of all I'd like to know someone is actually reading these lines, before I start talking about my problem =) | 01:01 |
| Qew | seriously, just ask your question and wait for a response. It's best that way. | 01:02 |
| Orionisti | Well, perhaps so... | 01:03 |
| Qew | as they say, cut to the chase ;) | 01:03 |
| Orionisti | Problem is this: My Xubuntu install hangs after it has loaded the frames of the install window. | 01:04 |
| Qew | done an MD5 check on the ISO before you burned it? | 01:04 |
| Orionisti | No, used Bittorrent, but used the inbuilt CD check, too | 01:05 |
| Qew | ah, ok | 01:05 |
| Orionisti | The computer is rather old, only 128 MB RAM, but according to the webpage that should be enough for the installation. | 01:06 |
| Qew | well, you need the alternate installation CD. The live distro install needs 192MB RAM | 01:07 |
| Orionisti | oh, I see | 01:07 |
| Orionisti | So the live distro can't take advantage of a swap partition on the HDD? | 01:07 |
| === OGDA [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.217.11.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Qew | well, it's not that as such. The alternate one is text based (not hard to use, though), so needs less resources. | 01:08 |
| Orionisti | I see | 01:08 |
| === icicled [n=icicled@adsl-209-30-164-212.dsl.rcsntx.swbell.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Qew | what computer architecture have you got and what version of Xubuntu do you want? | 01:09 |
| Orionisti | x86, preferably latest | 01:09 |
| Qew | do you want a torrent or would you like a direct FTP download? | 01:09 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: latest stable or latest beta? | 01:09 |
| Qew | Orionisti: http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/mirror/cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/6.10/release/xubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 01:10 |
| Qew | that's the torrent one... naturally | 01:10 |
| Orionisti | As long as it works =D Well, stable would be preferable since I'm a newcomer to Xubuntu | 01:10 |
| Orionisti | Thanks Qew | 01:10 |
| Qew | np... hopefully you'll be able to install it this time | 01:11 |
| Orionisti | But I can update the programs to latest beta with Adept or similar once I get it up and running, and if I find the need for that | 01:11 |
| Orionisti | Heh, the alternate CD isn't quite as popular as the live CD, only 150 KB/s... But it's ok, I have time. | 01:13 |
| Qew | yes, as long as you change the repositories to the new beta or whatever. Personally, I'd suggest, considering you're new to Ubuntu, you should stick to releases rather than betas. But, yeah, you can upgrade to new releases, etc. | 01:15 |
| Orionisti | indeed. I have been using Knoppix for a few months now, but it being a live CD by it's nature didn't quite want to be installed on a HDD =) | 01:17 |
| Orionisti | Well, thank you for this advice and if there's something I don't understand with the text-based install or it has some problems too, I'll come back here. | 01:18 |
| Qew | sure, someone will be able to help you | 01:19 |

| Qew | go there for help, too | 01:20 |

| Athensman | is xubuntu or ubuntu better for a 366 celeron and 256 ram?? | 01:53 |
| ormiret | probably safer with Xubuntu on that spec, a little on the light side for ubuntu | 01:55 |
| Athensman | ok will it run faster than windows?? | 01:56 |
| ormiret | depends on what version of windows and how you measure faster - graphics are often faster in windows as the GUI is more closely linked into the system and actually doing things faster in linux. | 01:57 |

| jmichaelx | are any others having issues with video cards, wireless, etc. in feisty? i have no X and no wireless when booting into the 2.6.20-12 kernel, but all works in -10. i do appear to have the restricted modules installed, so i am not sure what else to try. | 02:11 |

| Athensman | hello??? | 02:58 |
| jmichaelx | Athensman: it should work fine | 02:58 |
| Athensman | will it run better than win98 | 02:59 |
| slvmchn | i would say yes | 03:00 |
| Athensman | all i want this machine to do is play dvd's and play mp3's and watch tv | 03:00 |
| jmichaelx | Athensman: probably about the same except that it will be way more stable, and will have current software and security updates | 03:00 |
| slvmchn | Athensman: google mplayer and get the codecs pack they have on their site | 03:00 |
| slvmchn | it will save you a lot of time | 03:01 |
| Athensman | is this for linux | 03:01 |
| slvmchn | i don't even use mplayer as a media player, but that package fixed it so i could watch wmv's across the board | 03:01 |
| slvmchn | yeah | 03:01 |
| jmichaelx | xubuntu will be far more stable than win98 ever was | 03:01 |
| Athensman | well i am also looking for speed as much as possible | 03:02 |

| jmichaelx | Athensman: but, i like old hardware, and i like to make use of it, too | 03:04 |
| jmichaelx | Athensman: it depends on how much hard drive space you have | 03:04 |
| Athensman | i have 40 gig | 03:04 |
| jmichaelx | in that case there is no reason why you couldn't dual boot | 03:04 |
| Athensman | i thought i would do it until i get use to it | 03:05 |
| Athensman | since i have mp3's on windows can i transfer it to linux?? | 03:05 |
| jmichaelx | Athensman: yeah, plus... win98 uses FAT, so your xubuntu should be able to play all of your mp3's from your windows partition... you would not even have to move them | 03:06 |
| Athensman | kool | 03:06 |
| jmichaelx | just remember that after you install xubuntu, you will need to install the codecs that allow MP3's to work. | 03:07 |
| Athensman | that is why you guys are here to help me lol | 03:08 |
| Athensman | i know about 2 weeks ago | 03:08 |
| jmichaelx | if you are wanting to go even more light-weight, you could look at 'fluxbuntu'.... it is not an official ubuntu project, but it is still pretty interesting | 03:08 |
| Athensman | i tried to install it and i had win2kpro on there | 03:09 |
| Athensman | it would not install | 03:09 |

| Athensman | nope | 03:09 |

| Orionisti | Hi again | 03:09 |
| Orionisti | I'm installing Xubuntu on my laptop with the alternate CD and I need some help with the partitioning... | 03:09 |
| === arualavi [n=Iva@67.Red-83-33-5.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Orionisti | I was thinking to create a 1 GB swap partition and separate partitions for the OS and /home/ so if I decided to reinstall my OS I wouldn't lose my /home/. What size should the OS partition be? I have 40 gig HDD. | 03:11 |
| Orionisti | Also what file system would you recommend? | 03:15 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: how much ram do yu have? | 03:18 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: generally ext3 is best supported | 03:18 |
| Orionisti | 128 | 03:18 |
| TheSheep | a gig of swap seems like much... but then again, if you have 40GB | 03:18 |
| Orionisti | I can spare one gig for a swap, better too much than too little | 03:19 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: I think that 5GB for system should be safe and leave you some room for extending | 03:19 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: my install is 3GB right now, for example | 03:19 |
| Orionisti | thanks | 03:19 |
| TheSheep | it needs some free space for things in /tmp | 03:20 |
| TheSheep | and /var | 03:20 |
| TheSheep | especially if you plan to burn cd images | 03:20 |
| Orionisti | I don't have a CD burner in this laptop | 03:21 |
| Orionisti | I have now 1 gb swap and 39 gb ext3, how do I divide the 39 gb to 5 + 34 ? | 03:22 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: just create a 5GB partition | 03:22 |
| TheSheep | and then create a partition from the rest | 03:22 |
| Orionisti | That's the thing, I don't know how to create a new partition. | 03:23 |
| TheSheep | Orionisti: there should be an option in the installer? | 03:24 |
| === TheSheep tries to recall the exact layout | ||
| Orionisti | oh I see | 03:25 |
| Orionisti | I had to delete the existing partition and make the new ones from the free space | 03:25 |
| Orionisti | the 5 GB should be Primary? | 03:25 |
| TheSheep | yes, 5GB is / and the 34GB is /home | 03:26 |
| TheSheep | ah, not necessarily | 03:26 |
| TheSheep | sorry | 03:26 |
| TheSheep | linux doesn't care | 03:26 |
| Orionisti | ok | 03:26 |
| TheSheep | it can isntall to primary or secondary partition | 03:26 |
| Orionisti | Allright, now I have 1.1 GB Swap, 5.0 GB ext3 for / and 34.0 GB ext3 for /home | 03:28 |

| Erwin87 | i installed xubuntu using apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 04:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | whats your main desktop? | 04:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | Gnome or KDE? | 04:43 |
| Erwin87 | i installed from the Ubuntu live cd, si Gnome i guess | 04:43 |
| Erwin87 | then isntalled xubuntu-desktop\ | 04:44 |
| Erwin87 | xfce, right? | 04:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | does Gnome work ok?.. | 04:44 |
| Erwin87 | yes | 04:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | i really don't know, my Laptop runs Xubuntu 6.10, and it looks fi9ne | 04:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | gotta be a setting or something | 04:45 |
| Erwin87 | maybe it is possible to completely romove the xubuntu-desktop and the reinstall? | 04:46 |
| Erwin87 | i use 6.06 btw | 04:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | you could try that. | 04:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | why don't you just use Xubuntu | 04:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | if thats what you want? | 04:47 |
| Erwin87 | i allready had a cd with ubuntu, but now i got this old pc to try linux installed | 04:48 |
| Erwin87 | and i read on internet that xubuntu is faster | 04:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | Erwin87: Xubuntu does work better with Older hardware... | 04:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | however, i'm not sure you'll see the benefit having both desktops installed. | 04:49 |
| Erwin87 | hmm but i can delete the gnome desktop..? | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | yea, you should be able to, but i'd hold off on that till you have Xfce working properly | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | or download Xubuntu 6.10, burn it, and do a clean install. | 04:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | i just don't understand why you're having this problem though | 04:51 |
| Erwin87 | ok, first i am trying to reinstall xubuntu-desktop, if that doesn't workt i might burn a new cd | 04:52 |

| nekr0z | Hello all! I'm trying to use xubuntu-desktop on Ubuntu Edgy, and have a problem: fonts in most programs become tiny. Back in GNOME all the fonts are big again. What can be the matter? | 08:47 |
| ron_o | I have a cyberpower 1285avr ups. I'm trying to get linux to read it thru the ups. | 08:48 |
| ron_o | nekr0z, check your resolution first. Besides that I've no idea. I know when I used xubuntu w/ ubuntu I had many conflicts so I went to just use xubuntu instead. | 08:49 |
| Ramla | nekr0z: perhaps you left the computer idle at gdm logon screen before logging in to xfce? | 08:49 |
| === Gvlaskop [n=Geert@ipd50a0bd9.speed.planet.nl] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| nekr0z | Ramla, I didn't. | 08:50 |
| Ramla | I have experienced this weird bug on two different installations, dapper and edgy.. whenever the screen goes to power saving mode and I come back to log on, the fonts become tiny. | 08:50 |
| nekr0z | ron_o, What can it be with resolution? | 08:50 |
| FakeOutdoorsman | nekr0z: your screen dpi may be set differently between Gnome and XFCE | 08:50 |
| nekr0z | The weirdest thing is, in Firefox the fonts are still of normal size. And in OpenOffice they seem to be even bigger than in GNOME | 08:51 |
| nekr0z | FakeOutdoorsman, Where would I look for it? | 08:52 |
| FakeOutdoorsman | nekr0z: I can't remember. I don't think it is your problem, but it might be. | 08:53 |
| Ramla | I don't use Firefox or OpenOffice, so I can't compare to my bug, but bitmap fonts appear normal in my case | 08:53 |
| Ramla | nekr0z: what fixes my small fonts is X restart. Tried it? | 08:54 |
| FakeOutdoorsman | nekr0z: try this http://xubuntulinux.blogspot.com/2006/07/ubuntu-set-correct-dpi-for-x-server.html | 08:56 |
| nekr0z | Ramla, Not yet. I'll try now. But if this fixed it, I'd better stay in GNOME - needing to restart X after every suspend is definitely not what I expect from a decent system... | 08:56 |

| nekr0z | FakeOutdoorsman, Thanks for a link, I'll read it. | 08:56 |
| FakeOutdoorsman | or this http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/09/howto-fix-xfce-fonts/ | 08:57 |
| Ramla | Mm, suspending.. Haven't done that. Maybe I should try to see if it has the same effect as power saving | 08:57 |

| BFTD | PuMpErNiCkLe why is jester45 banned? | 10:22 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Because right now he's using the cgi-irc gateway. | 10:22 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | !proxy | 10:23 |
| ubotu | The #ubuntu channel and related channels ban users joining from anonymous gateways like tor/silenceisdefeat/cgi:irc because the abuse:useful ratio is close to infinity:nothing -- project cloaks will let you join, otherwise you should simply not use an anonymizer. | 10:23 |
| ubotu | Attention tor users. You may think you are anonymous, but you are not. Please visit http://tor.unixgu.ru/ and see for yourself. Please evaluate your need to use tor here on irc. If you wish anonymity, Freenode offers cloaks of many different types. http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 10:23 |
