| kalikiana | _spaz, Depends if you want to use both regularly. I did not ever install both on the same partition personally, so I can't really say if that would fix your problems. | 03:24 |
| kalikiana | On the other side, I prefer xfce over everything else, and I should say yes anyway. ;) | 03:25 |

| jeffsters | how do I upgrade Firefox 1.5 to 2.0.3? I downloaded the newest firefox and extracted it to a folder on my desktop... now what? | 04:05 |
| emdash | ...run the installer? | 04:05 |
| emdash | (as root) | 04:06 |
| jeffsters | sorry i'm still new to linux... which file is the installer? | 04:06 |
| tonyyarusso | jeffsters: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion | 04:06 |
| emdash | ends in .sh or .bin | 04:06 |
| jeffsters | ok | 04:07 |
| emdash | usually | 04:07 |
| tonyyarusso | emdash: We have detailed instructions for such things :) | 04:07 |
| ron_o | jeffsters- first check synaptic if it has that version. | 04:07 |
| emdash | although i'm almost certain this would be covered in the readme =P | 04:07 |
| emdash | yeah | 04:07 |
| jeffsters | synaptic has 1.5 as latest | 04:07 |
| emdash | i'll be quiet | 04:07 |
| ron_o | you really should just stick to synaptic until you get to know linux/xubuntu | 04:07 |
| tonyyarusso | emdash: Readme's aren't really distro-specific in this case, so it may be confusing. _Normally_ a fantastic idea though. | 04:07 |
| tonyyarusso | ;) | 04:07 |
| === alben [n=alex@port-87-234-145-176.dynamic.qsc.de] has left #xubuntu [] | ||
| emdash | it's sortof a tightrope walk between knowing then to do things the distro's way, and when to do things some other way | 04:09 |
| ron_o | emdash- a newbie should do things the easy way. | 04:09 |
| emdash | sometimes that's not the distro way =( | 04:09 |

| === alben [n=alben@port-87-234-145-176.dynamic.qsc.de] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| ron_o | the problem is that linux deals with applications so much differently than does windows that to a newbie it's really confusing. | 04:11 |
| emdash | he asked a question, though, that was worth answering | 04:11 |
| emdash | because other things install that way | 04:11 |

| ron_o | it's hard to explain Z when you're at D | 04:12 |
| ron_o | that's the problem with chat. How much does someone know? Do your suggestions sound demeaning? | 04:14 |
| ron_o | forums are so much better for the newbie. | 04:14 |
| jeffsters | looking the link by tony.... is this how programs are usually installed other than synapic? | 04:14 |
| tonyyarusso | jeffsters: It's how Mozilla stuff is. So not really. | 04:15 |
| tonyyarusso | !compile | 04:15 |
| ubotu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!) | 04:15 |
| tonyyarusso | For another option | 04:15 |
| tonyyarusso | Best case scenario, you download a .deb and double-click | 04:15 |
| jeffsters | yeah Picasa was like that | 04:15 |
| jeffsters | sooo easy | 04:16 |

| jeffsters | ok i've got xubuntu all up in running now... the only thing is when I connect my digital camera, nothing happens and my camera is frozen | 04:30 |
| jeffsters | i ran lsusb and it shows up though | 04:30 |
| emdash | it doesn't support usb mass storage | 04:30 |
| emdash | so you have to install gphoto, i htink | 04:30 |
| jeffsters | I also tried another digi cam and it works though | 04:30 |
| emdash | i'd install gtkam, that worked pretty well for me | 04:31 |
| jeffsters | ok | 04:31 |
| emdash | but you should check the website for support | 04:31 |
| emdash | i mean, to see if your camera is supported | 04:31 |
| jeffsters | i downloaded gtkam and tried to add my camera manually but it seems there isn't a driver listed for mines... Canon SD200 and SD400 are listed but no SD300 | 04:39 |
| jeffsters | installed gphoto2 also | 04:40 |
| jeffsters | i think its with xubuntu dapper... the camera is detected fine on my ubuntu edgy laptop | 04:41 |

| brokenbin | would i be able to find that from synaptic? | 07:46 |
| crdlb | brokenbin, you need to add a repo like medibuntu | 07:48 |
| crdlb | I believe | 07:48 |
| brokenbin | what's a repo? | 07:48 |
| crdlb | an apt repository | 07:48 |
| crdlb | !repository | 07:48 |
| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource | 07:48 |
| crdlb | !mplayer | 07:49 |
| ubotu | mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs | 07:49 |
| crdlb | Oh it's in multiverse | 07:49 |

| brokenbin | how do it use it | 07:49 |
| brokenbin | i installed mplayer via add/remove app | 07:51 |
| brokenbin | but how do it run it? | 07:51 |
| crdlb | brokenbin, run: gmplayer | 07:51 |
| crdlb | or: mplayer for the command line version | 07:52 |
| brokenbin | command not found | 07:52 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gmplayer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 07:52 |

| brokenbin | which folder is it installed to? | 07:53 |

| crdlb | brokenbin, open your /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:12 |
| crdlb | gksu leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:13 |
| brokenbin | crdlb, alright | 08:13 |
| brokenbin | what do i add? | 08:13 |
| Darkkish | crdlb, you mean mousepad... | 08:13 |
| Darkkish | what is leafpad? I don't have that | 08:13 |
| brokenbin | Darkkish, same thing | 08:13 |
| Darkkish | hmm... leafpad doesn't work as a command for me though | 08:13 |
| crdlb | Darkkish, yes I did | 08:14 |
| crdlb | but leafpad is a text editor too | 08:14 |
| Darkkish | oh lol | 08:14 |
| brokenbin | crdlb, what do i add to the source file? | 08:15 |
| crdlb | brokenbin, add: deb http://seveas.imbrandon.com/ edgy-seveas extras | 08:15 |
| brokenbin | crdlb: done | 08:15 |

| brokenbin | pretty big for a codec | 08:18 |
| scruffy | rici: the alternate iso seems to work. | 08:18 |
| myrddraal | hello, xorg.conf problem | 08:19 |
| crdlb | brokenbin, it's a collection of windows .dll's | 08:19 |
| crdlb | for every codec imaginable | 08:19 |
| brokenbin | wow | 08:19 |
| brokenbin | thanks a lot, it works | 08:19 |
| brokenbin | now i have a good reason to abandon windows, lol | 08:20 |
| myrddraal | Can't get my monitor above 800x600 | 08:20 |
| myrddraal | Is there a way to re-auto configure my X server like is done in a clean install? | 08:21 |
| Darkkish | what does XFCE stand for? | 08:22 |
| brokenbin | yea, that's what i wonder too | 08:22 |
| crdlb | Darkkish, absolutely nothing anymore iirc | 08:22 |
| Darkkish | well what does GFCE stand for? or just FCE? | 08:23 |
| crdlb | myrddraal, sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 08:23 |
| scruffy | via Wikipedia: 'The name "Xfce" originally stood for "XForms Common Environment",' | 08:23 |
| crdlb | beat me to it :D | 08:23 |
| crdlb | but it uses gtk2 now, so the name is irrelevant | 08:24 |
| myrddraal | crdlb: Tells me dkpg-reconfigure is not installed, should be installed via synaptic? | 08:24 |
| Darkkish | what is the differnce between GNUdoku and GNUdoQ, they look identical >_> | 08:24 |
| crdlb | myrddraal, that should be dpkg, sorry | 08:25 |
| crdlb | myrddraal, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 08:25 |

| scruffy | crdlb: not sure, and I'm hoping I don't have to rebuild the kernel | 08:26 |

| crdlb | scruffy, I see | 08:27 |
| scruffy | crdlb: I think prism54 | 08:27 |
| crdlb | scruffy, well, often there are multiple revisions of a card with different chipsets | 08:28 |
| scruffy | crdlb: the box says WG511 version 2, if that makes any difference. | 08:28 |
| scruffy | crdlb: I see posts in 2004 that "Made in China" versions of that card don't work, and mine is a "Made in China" version and not a "made in taiwan". I'm hoping things have changed in 3 years | 08:30 |
| crdlb | scruffy, I always try to get intel or atheros | 08:31 |
| crdlb | scruffy, you may need to resort to ndiswrapper | 08:32 |
| Darkkish | haha mcduff | 08:32 |
| Darkkish | if its a broadcom chipset consider the bcfwcutter or w/e | 08:32 |
| scruffy | crdlb: this is a first time notebook install. I happened to have this wireless card on the file cabinet. :) I usually go with intel too. | 08:33 |

| Jester45 | and lappy aren't as supported | 09:05 |
| Jester45 | braveheartlion, i think it is ther are other thats the one i remember the best | 09:05 |
| braveheartlion | Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "xripper" | 09:06 |
| Jester45 | scruffy, i got 8 desktops 1server/desktop hybrid and 3 lappy and i could use more | 09:06 |
| Jester45 | braveheartlion, o ripperx sorry | 09:06 |
| braveheartlion | The following packages have been automatically kept back: <--- why? | 09:06 |
| Jester45 | incompatibly with other packages | 09:07 |
| Jester45 | what packages are kept back | 09:07 |
| scruffy | Jester45: got a regular lab going on there dontcha! :D | 09:07 |
| Jester45 | or other resons | 09:07 |
| Jester45 | why do you ask? | 09:08 |
| scruffy | braveheartlion: probably no install candidate for a dependency of the package you're trying to install. | 09:09 |
| scruffy | braveheartlion: unless you put some package on hold status? | 09:09 |
| Jester45 | scruffy, you wouldnt know much about win98se? | 09:09 |
| scruffy | Jester45: nope, not very much. I think it may be 7 years since I've used it? | 09:10 |
| braveheartlion | pls see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11964/ to see the packages that have been kept back? | 09:10 |
| Jester45 | o nvm then | 09:10 |
| Jester45 | well i got a lap top with it on it and each time i get a i/o speed of over 40mb/s it freezes | 09:12 |
| Jester45 | i think i will put xubuntu on it | 09:12 |
| Jester45 | or win2kpro not sure | 09:12 |
| scruffy | Jester45: why are you using Winows 98 SE though? | 09:12 |
| Jester45 | becuase it was on it | 09:12 |
| braveheartlion | i got ripper x but the text is missing. i think it's something to do with the packages that have been held back. | 09:13 |
| scruffy | braveheartlion: I'm not sure. Have you installed some packages from unstable or installed any debs outside of apt-get? | 09:13 |
| braveheartlion | pls see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11964/ to see the packages that have been kept back? | 09:13 |

| braveheartlion | i don't think so | 09:13 |

| scruffy | dangit this thing is only at 58% installed | 09:15 |
| braveheartlion | scruffy: i already got ripper x | 09:15 |
| Jester45 | then reinstall them | 09:15 |
| braveheartlion | how do i copy? | 09:15 |
| braveheartlion | do'nt you mean install? | 09:15 |
| Jester45 | you can leave out a few packages from being reinstalled if you want | 09:15 |
| scruffy | braveheartlion: try apt-get -u install [package] for each of those its says its keeping back.. try them one at a time | 09:16 |
| braveheartlion | scruffy: that's a slow way. | 09:17 |
| braveheartlion | there are a lot of packages. | 09:17 |

| Jester456 | "sudo apt-get remove [packages here] && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install [packages] " | 09:21 |

| braveheartlion | 8-) | 09:23 |
| Jester456 | braveheartlion, becuase apt will not upgrade them they are held back but if apt thinks you never had them then a install of them gets the newest version | 09:23 |

| Jester456 | hehe i like the MS's NT kernel ablity to compress the whole drive | 09:25 |
| Jester456 | now i need to exchange it to a rar compress | 09:25 |
| scruffy | Jester456: how is that even possible? | 09:25 |
| Jester456 | i could save a whole 2gb | 09:25 |
| scruffy | Jester456: that's like the compression program compressing itself, isn't it?? | 09:26 |
| Jester456 | scruffy, yes all NT based OS have a option to compress the whole drive OS file compressor .exe | 09:26 |
| Jester456 | yes | 09:26 |
| Jester456 | very fancy | 09:26 |
| scruffy | you misspelled 'crazy' | 09:27 |
| Jester456 | well to compress the WHOLE drive you need to boot it in a 2nd machine so you can compress the OS files | 09:27 |
| Jester456 | becuase some files are inuse and cant be touched | 09:27 |
| scruffy | Jester456: yeah that's what I was thinking.. they sorta misrepresented that feature. :) | 09:28 |
| Jester456 | well not really | 09:28 |
| Jester456 | you can tell it to compress C:/ and all files/folders under it but your get the logical errors | 09:29 |

| Jester456 | the lack of the B:/ drive | 09:30 |

| keb | when i run the UpdateManager it tells me it needs ubuntu-desktop installed to do a dist-upgrade, but i already did the dist-upgrade to 6.10 last october | 04:11 |
| keb | and isnt xubuntu-desktop sufficient instead of ubuntu-desktop? | 04:12 |
| grazie | keb: sounds like you've added xubuntu-desktop to ubuntu, but now the ubuntu-desktop meta package is missing | 04:20 |
| keb | yes | 04:20 |
| keb | i removed all the crap i don't use, like evolution | 04:20 |
| Orionisti | Hi, I'm running Xubuntu on a laptop and would be interested to know which of the shutdown options correspond to the action of writing contents of RAM to HDD and shutting down computer, so I could take off the battery and still have the session saved. | 04:21 |
| keb | so i guess i have to add it back before a dist-upgrade | 04:21 |

| grazie | keb: sounds like it....I've not seen this scenario before | 04:22 |
| keb | thanks | 04:22 |
| grazie | keb: alternatively you could try to remove everything in ubuntu-desktop that xubuntu-desktop doesn't need, but wouldn't want to try that myself | 04:24 |
| keb | Orionisti : hibernation writes stuff to HDD, suspend saves only to RAM and requires power | 04:25 |
| keb | hmm | 04:25 |
| keb | grazie : too many packages ;) also, i have beryl installed so that may complicate things | 04:25 |
| remfarkas | damn, who is keb, u stole my nick!! :D | 04:26 |
| keb | lol my nick is registered since 3 years | 04:26 |
| remfarkas | ok ^^ | 04:27 |
| remfarkas | i tought i'll never meet the person who registered it before me :) | 04:27 |

| Ulixes | hi | 04:35 |
| Ulixes | i've installed linux-server-image | 04:35 |
| keb | Orionisti are you sure that isnt a router? router handles pppoe login for you to the modem | 04:35 |
| Ulixes | but now when i try to login it goes back to the login splash screen | 04:35 |
| Orionisti | My guess would be that my ISP changed the assigned IP but the laptop doesn't know it yet... | 04:35 |
| Ulixes | can you help me? | 04:35 |
| Orionisti | keb, well the laptop first connects to switch which relays the packets to the adsl router, ZyXel 660H. | 04:36 |
| Orionisti | exactly the same way this computer connects to internet, not that it matters really... | 04:37 |

| keb | Orionisti the zyxel hands out ip addresses to the computers connected to it, independent of the ISP. | 04:39 |
| Orionisti | Actually I think I disabled the NAT feature since I don't really have a need for LAN | 04:40 |
| keb | Orionisti : if you go into the System, Networking app on the laptop and check the settings for the ethernet connection you may find the problem | 04:40 |
| keb | oic | 04:40 |
| === Ulixes [n=ulixes@host-84-222-153-167.cust-adsl.tiscali.it] has left #xubuntu [] | ||
| keb | well if you have 2 computers going through the same DSL connection you do need a LAN/NAT unless you have multiple static IPs | 04:41 |
| Orionisti | The ISP allows up to 5 dynamic IP addresses, so that shouldn't be a problem | 04:42 |
| Orionisti | The Networking options are set as automatic (DHCP) | 04:42 |
| keb | did you try disabling and re-enabling the connection | 04:43 |
| Orionisti | No, but I did unplug and replug the network cable, I'll try that now. | 04:44 |
| Orionisti | That trick worked, thanks =) | 04:45 |
| keb | :) | 04:46 |
| Orionisti | There seems to be some problems with the Hibernate function. | 04:50 |
| Orionisti | The screen went black and it says " [ 1428.231948] Power down. " | 04:51 |
| Orionisti | The HDD activity led has been lit for several minutes now | 04:51 |
| Orionisti | Should I have to manually power down the computer? | 04:52 |
| === AntiLaVista [n=rob@213.143.93.185] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| keb | dunno | 04:58 |
| keb | usually when it says power down you have to manually do it, but if the HDD is lit i would wait | 04:59 |
| keb | maybe power management isnt enabled in the laptop bios? | 04:59 |
| Orionisti | ok, I removed the power cable and rebooted the laptop and the session was saved properly | 05:00 |
| keb | heh | 05:00 |
| Orionisti | but now that I selected shut down it went to login screen | 05:00 |
| Orionisti | and selecting shut down from login screen commences the shutdown process with the nice mouse logo, but again, HDD led is lit and computer doesn't shut itself down. | 05:01 |
| Orionisti | Well this problem can be solved another time, I need some fresh air. | 05:02 |

| Jester45 | and to show off to windows users, tell them you can pay to get vista and get 1/4 of this or get 100% for free | 11:01 |
| mirf | yeah it is | 11:01 |
| mirf | thing is | 11:01 |
| mirf | my non linux friends belittle linux | 11:02 |
| mirf | but I'm sure all they need is somethign like this to change their tiny minds heh | 11:02 |
| Jester45 | mirf, tell them without linux the internet is gone | 11:02 |
| TheSheep | mirf: if they go to linux for effects -- that's still belittling | 11:02 |
| mirf | yes true | 11:03 |
| Jester45 | all the major isp and most smaller ones use linux on their serves | 11:03 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: untrue | 11:03 |
| mirf | prolly unix | 11:03 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: I know quite a few that use solaris, for example | 11:03 |
| Jester45 | is solaris considered unix-like? | 11:04 |
| Jester45 | i never looked at it that much | 11:04 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: even windows nt is considered unix-like | 11:04 |
| Jester45 | really? i would say unix copier | 11:05 |
| TheSheep | more than linux, actually, as it has the official certificate | 11:05 |
| Jester45 | well let me repharse, most isp use non MS OSs | 11:05 |
| TheSheep | most os-es are non-ms | 11:06 |
| Jester45 | TheSheep, fine how about they use linux/unix/solaris/bsd | 11:09 |
| Jester45 | that ok with you? | 11:10 |
| TheSheep | don't forget about ultrix, digital, true64, etc. ;) | 11:10 |
| TheSheep | and of course GNU | 11:10 |
| TheSheep | but I don't think anyone uses that in production | 11:11 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: well, there is also a number of mainframes that have a totally different approach to computing | 11:12 |
| Jester45 | they are just weird | 11:12 |
| TheSheep | Jester45: no distinction of ram/disks, no directories in the filesystem | 11:13 |

| Darkkish | hey | 11:24 |
| Darkkish | GTK 2.0 themes... i don't think they work for me | 11:24 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: what do yuo do? | 11:24 |
| Darkkish | i got a theme from xfce-look | 11:24 |
| Darkkish | and installed it | 11:24 |
| Darkkish | and it doesn't look like the themne on the website | 11:24 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: which theme and how did you install it? | 11:24 |
| Darkkish | gentle 2.0 and i just put it in the theme folder | 11:25 |
| Darkkish | it shows up in the list | 11:25 |
| Darkkish | but only the xfwm looks right, the bars look ugly and so do the menus | 11:25 |
| Darkkish | infact the only thing that looks right is the bar of the program | 11:26 |
| Darkkish | TheSheep do you understand? | 11:27 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: which theme and how did you install it? | 11:28 |
| TheSheep | :) | 11:28 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: I need it to tell what's wrong | 11:28 |
| Darkkish | TheSheep, i said, Gentle 2.0 and I extracted it into the themes folder | 11:28 |
| Darkkish | when i open the folder it has one oflder that says xfwm4 (or somethign like that) | 11:28 |
| TheSheep | ah, sorry | 11:28 |
| Darkkish | and another that says gtk 2.0 | 11:29 |
| TheSheep | missed that | 11:29 |
| === TheSheep looks | ||
| TheSheep | hmm... there is quite a few of them | 11:29 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: you think you could give me a link to the one you tried? | 11:30 |
| Darkkish | http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=38852 it says its only a window manager, but in his pictures, it atleast shows pretty scroll bars and things | 11:30 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: well, for scrollbars and othr widgets you need the gtk 2 theme | 11:31 |
| TheSheep | ah, it's there | 11:31 |
| === TheSheep looks | ||
| Darkkish | it is inside... | 11:31 |
| Darkkish | TheSheep, I think its a problem with my GTK 2.0, not the theme its self | 11:31 |
| Darkkish | because i've noticed alot of the default themes have this ugly look too | 11:32 |
| === apokryphos [n=francis@unaffiliated/apokryphos] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| TheSheep | Darkkish: that's how it looks when you don't have the engine installed for the theme | 11:33 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: try this: 'sudo apt-get install gtk-engines-pixmap' | 11:33 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: generally, you can always check the gtkrc file in the theme to see what engine it uses | 11:34 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: and you need to have it installed | 11:34 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: for the theme to display right | 11:34 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: otherwise it uses a fallback engine which is not pretty | 11:34 |
| Darkkish | oh | 11:35 |
| Darkkish | why isn't it installed by default? | 11:35 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: there is a lot of engines available, I guess only the ones for the official ubuntu themes are installed by default | 11:35 |
| Darkkish | TheSheep, it still looks the same though... | 11:36 |
| === TheSheep scratches his head | ||
| TheSheep | Darkkish: did you try to switch and then swithc back? | 11:37 |
| Darkkish | yep | 11:37 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: you have to switch it in two palces, in wm setting and in the user interface settings | 11:38 |
| Darkkish | I see | 11:39 |
| Darkkish | well, i did that just now, still didn't change anything >_> | 11:39 |
| Darkkish | tried switching/reswitching | 11:39 |
| TheSheep | hmm.. it doesn't work for me either :/ | 11:40 |
| Darkkish | hmm | 11:40 |
| === TheSheep installs all the engines XD | ||
| TheSheep | Darkkish: you need gtk2-engines-pixbuf2 it seems | 11:41 |
| Darkkish | couldn | 11:43 |
| Darkkish | "couldn't find package" | 11:43 |
| TheSheep | :/ | 11:43 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: edgy? | 11:43 |
| Darkkish | TheSheep, yes | 11:44 |
| Darkkish | er | 11:44 |
| Darkkish | yeah 6.10 | 11:44 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: maybe search for 'pixbuf' in synaptic | 11:44 |
| TheSheep | and see if any engine comes up | 11:44 |
| Darkkish | libgtk-pixbuf2 | 11:45 |
| Darkkish | which is installed | 11:45 |

| TheSheep | Darkkish: oh, sorry, there is no p[ixbuf2 XD | 11:56 |
| TheSheep | Darkkish: it should work with gtk2-engines-pixbuf | 11:56 |

| TheSheep | Darkkish: wm theme is just for the window decorations -- the top bar and borders | 12:03 |
| Darkkish | oh | 12:03 |
| Darkkish | is there a chance that restarting X would fix this? | 12:03 |
