| atarinox | this may like a strange bug....but after upgrading to feisty I can ONLY connect to unsecured networks w/ my wireless card (RTL8180 chipset). Another strange bug is that I have to add a junk character to the end of the ESSID of the secure network to connect....does it sound like the two are related? I can add a junk character to the ESSID of an unsecure network, but it still won't work. | 01:06 |

| === s|k [n=bjorn@ip70-171-201-121.tc.ph.cox.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| kalikiana | mads-, I would say you probably want 7.04 except you should encounter one of a few hardware issues. | 02:42 |
| miyako | mads-: 7.04 would be the newest version | 02:42 |
| kalikiana | For example with wireless lan. | 02:42 |
| mads- | I know 7.04 is the newest... Just haven't tried it out yet (I'm using normal ubuntu right now). But I have heard it contains some errors :S | 02:43 |
| kalikiana | mads-, It mostly works perfectly imho. But you *may* encounter specific problems which really depend on your system. | 02:44 |
| zials | can always test it out with a CD :3 | 02:44 |
| === kalikiana couldn't get the live cd to boot - however Feisty runs fine from his harddrive. | ||
| miyako | well, the problem was with my configuration | 02:45 |
| miyako | I moved ~/.config/xfce4 to ~/.config/xfce4.bak and it seems to start fine now | 02:45 |
| miyako | the only thing I changed was the theme, is there any known issue with that, or shall I investigate further and file a bug report? | 02:46 |
| kalikiana | miyako, I did not hear from a theme preventing xfce from starting before. You should look for a bug or file one indeed. | 02:49 |
| miyako | kalikiana: yeah, even now for some reason I'm not getting window decorations without beryl now | 02:51 |
| miyako | although I did remember that I also changed orage to start automaticall | 02:51 |
| === czer323 [n=czer323@cpe-24-26-156-169.columbus.res.rr.com] has joined #xubuntu | ||

| kalikiana | hi neozen | 02:57 |
| neozen | hoallo there | 02:57 |
| miyako | kalikiana: yeah, it wasn't but it's all good, I'm using beryl now | 02:57 |
| miyako | hmm, I wonder if using beryl kinda undoes the benefits of having a lightweight desktop in the first place | 02:57 |
| kalikiana | miyako, As long as you are fine with it, it's okay. Many people are using xfce with kde and gnome programs - that's not any better. | 02:58 |
| neozen | lol..... | 02:59 |
| miyako | kalikiana: yeah, I'm doing that as well, I have a powerful enough system, I just think XFCE looks a little nicer than gnome | 02:59 |
| kalikiana | miyako, In my opinion the overall user interface concept in XFCE is way better than the alternatives. And I don't use XFCE on low hardware (3GHz, 1GB). | 03:01 |
| === kalikiana however doesn't use any kde or gnome libs - as a principle. | ||
| miyako | kalikiana: yeah, I think that I might agree, although I haven't used it extensively | 03:02 |
| miyako | I also quite like aspects of Enlightenment, but I can't use compiz or beryl with it, so no dice | 03:03 |
| kalikiana | miyako, You should try the macmenubar if you like unusual interfaces. ;) | 03:04 |
| miyako | hmm, is there a package for it? | 03:04 |
| miyako | I keep hoping that kibadock will get some stability, it's nice but really slow atm | 03:04 |
| miyako | I like the dock concept | 03:05 |
| miyako | I hate everything else about OS X | 03:05 |
| miyako | but I do like the dock lol | 03:05 |
| kalikiana | Nope, you will need to compile GTK+ to use the menubar. I actually like the concept of one global menubar which reduces the needed space on individual windows. | 03:06 |
| miyako | ah, I actually find that kind of irksome | 03:06 |

| TheSheep | nopcode: but obviously the beta drivers are not recommended | 04:58 |
| nopcode | that doesnt seem to mention beta drivers | 04:59 |
| nopcode | well i'm an opengl developer, so i need geometry shaders | 04:59 |
| nopcode | the non-beta drivers dont have these. | 04:59 |

| VxJasonxV | I must have nuked it from my autostarted applications :/ | 05:03 |
| VxJasonxV | I couldn't remember the panel app name for the life of me | 05:03 |
| VxJasonxV | thanks :) | 05:03 |
| VxJasonxV | I'm assuming, since it didn't auto start, I should go add it to the 'Autostarted Applications', yes? | 05:04 |
| TheSheep | VxJasonxV:no, just save sessin when logging out | 05:05 |
| nopcode | TheSheep: well i know how to run the nvidia installer | 05:05 |
| nopcode | TheSheep: thats trivial | 05:05 |
| nopcode | but this guide wont give me a package afterwards | 05:06 |
| TheSheep | nopcode: you need the kernel headers | 05:06 |
| nopcode | well i've built my own kernel so i guess i'll have headers | 05:06 |
| TheSheep | nopcode: well, you can try and make a package with checkinstall | 05:06 |
| nopcode | somewhere in /usr/src | 05:06 |
| nopcode | well i'll just run the installer | 05:06 |
| nopcode | i guess it'll work | 05:06 |
| VxJasonxV | I always do :/ | 05:07 |
| nopcode | hm | 05:07 |
| nopcode | btw where should the kernel headers be=? | 05:07 |
| nopcode | i've built a kernel package manually and installed it | 05:07 |
| nopcode | is that enough? | 05:07 |
| TheSheep | nopcode: in /usr/include or /usr/src I presume | 05:07 |
| TheSheep | nopcode: yes, it should be enough | 05:08 |
| nopcode | ok brb | 05:08 |
| TheSheep | nopcode: if not, you can give the path to the headers as a parameter to the installer | 05:08 |
| nopcode | GL_NV_geometry_shader4 | 05:10 |
| nopcode | yeah baby | 05:10 |
| nopcode | thanks :) | 05:10 |
| nopcode | well i should've figured nvidia would spend some effort to ensure ubuntu compatibility | 05:10 |

| scur | danny, what is the issue? | 09:09 |
| darrend | (he's probably swamped by the noise in #ubuntu now) | 09:10 |
| darrend | :) | 09:10 |
| danny | I was :-) | 09:11 |
| danny | Yeah, sorry about that. I'll spit it out now. | 09:11 |
| danny | So my screen is split. About 75% up top is normal and the bottom quarter or so is a copy of what happens up top. I can see my mouse down there and what not. I don't know too much about how to fix Xorg issues. | 09:12 |
| danny | And the right side looks like dead space. It seems normal when you look at it but if you toss a window over there or your mouse everything goes crazy. | 09:12 |
| danny | I don't mean to be vague I'm just not sure how else to describe it. | 09:13 |
| darrend | sounds like your monitor can't handle the resolution or the refresh rate | 09:13 |
| darrend | seen that happen on projectors but not so much on normal monitors | 09:13 |
| darrend | what kind of monitor do you have? | 09:13 |
| danny | Well this is an odd monitor. I picked up the computer for free (nice deal). It's a Sony LCD display. | 09:13 |
| danny | Not sure of the model number. | 09:14 |
| darrend | size screen? | 09:14 |
| danny | PCVA-15QA1, I'm actually not sure what the screen size is. It's odd. I think the max resolution is 1280x960. | 09:15 |
| danny | Just checked the bottom for the model number. | 09:15 |
| darrend | do you find this monitor works with other computers? Have you tried? - I mean it could be defunct hardware. | 09:15 |
| danny | Na, I don't have any other computers with an input like this one has. It's not standard VGA. | 09:15 |
| danny | Some odd proprietary Sony thing I would imagine. | 09:16 |
| darrend | I'd be surprised.. sure it's not DVI? | 09:16 |
| danny | The thing is it worked for a while. Works fine in Windows. Worked fine at 1024x768 under FreeBSD. | 09:16 |
| danny | Could be. I'm not too familiar with DVI. | 09:16 |
| danny | See, I dropped the resolution back to 1024x768. When I set it at 1280x960 I get an error about memory. I checked the xorg log for traces of that error but I'm not seeing it. I probably grepped in a vague way. | 09:17 |
| danny | It states that it needs at least 4800kb of memory and I only have 4096 I believe. | 09:18 |
| danny | It doesn't make sense though because I had it working at 1280x960 a while back. I was running Debian. | 09:18 |
| scur | sounds like the graphics card rather than the monitor to me | 09:18 |
| darrend | grep your xorg log for "EE" | 09:18 |
| danny | Yeah, I was leaning there a little bit. | 09:18 |
| scur | you haven't had this problem with any other OS with the same gfx card and monitor? | 09:18 |
| darrend | errors are marked in there with (EE) and warnings with (WW) | 09:19 |
| danny | Hmm, interesting. | 09:19 |
| danny | Thanks for that. I'll keep it in mind. | 09:19 |
| danny | daniel@ubox:~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE | 09:19 |
| danny | (WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown. | 09:19 |
| danny | (II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER | 09:19 |
| danny | daniel@ubox:~$ | 09:19 |
| danny | That does not quite seem like what we would be expecting. | 09:20 |
| danny | :-) | 09:20 |
| darrend | (brb) | 09:20 |
| danny | Alright. | 09:20 |
| scur | hmm... you say it worked under debian? do you remember if that was with Xorg or XFree86? | 09:20 |
| danny | I'm actually not quite sure. It was Debian Etch testing, I could Google it. | 09:21 |
| danny | Good call though. That may be it. | 09:21 |
| scur | it sounds like the graphics card to me, it's odd for a monitor to stop working like that. | 09:22 |
| danny | Looks like unstable is using X.org now. | 09:22 |
| danny | So it probably wasn't XF86 | 09:22 |
| scur | check you're using the right driver for your card | 09:22 |
| scur | hmmm, funny that it worked in debian and not ubuntu then | 09:22 |
| danny | Well that's the odd thing. It won't work under Debian anymore. | 09:22 |
| danny | I tried the installation a week or two later and it gives me the same error. | 09:23 |
| scur | ah | 09:23 |
| danny | And I'll check the drivers soon. | 09:23 |
| scur | tried any other operating systems? | 09:23 |
| === aboyousif|DNSAW is now known as aboyousif|DnD | ||
| danny | Yeah, I had Gentoo working with it a while back. | 09:24 |
| danny | I'm sort of a distro whore, I havn't quite settled on one yet. | 09:24 |
| scur | fair enough | 09:24 |
| danny | FreeBSD worked well at 1024x768. Didn't play it with it at 1280x960. | 09:24 |
| danny | So no issues there. | 09:24 |
| scur | my graphics card gave me similar problems a while back as the hardware was on the way out, and i had to replace it in the end | 09:25 |
| danny | Yeah, well in the end it isn't a big deal. | 09:25 |
| scur | but that was obviously a h/w problem as it happened under different OS's | 09:25 |
| danny | Yeah. | 09:25 |
| scur | well, must be pretty annoying only having half a screen :) | 09:25 |
| danny | It's interesting. | 09:25 |
| scur | i'd try running it with a differant driver (e.g. nvidia instead of nv), but not sure what else to suggest | 09:26 |
| danny | Yeah, I will. Don't worry about it, this gives me a place to start. | 09:27 |
| danny | I'll probably have it working in a day or two. | 09:27 |
| danny | Just wish I wasn't so busy, it's nice to sit down to spend a few hours tweaking. | 09:28 |
| === Lectus [n=freddy@201008064005.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| danny | Well, that's nice. Xorg -configure does detect the displays model number. | 09:31 |
| danny | And it looks like it's using the right card driver but I'm not sure. | 09:32 |
| danny | I mean I'm pretty sure it's SiS. | 09:32 |
| Lectus | Hello! I'm using Ubuntu, but I'd like to try Xubuntu as they say it's lighter. But does it have the same applications / functionality? Will it run Gnome or KDE applications? Why they don't ship Xubuntu CD's as they do with Ubuntu and Kubuntu? I'm quite a new Linux user, so sorry for the lots of questions. Thanks! | 09:33 |
| scur | Hi Lectus, yep, installing xubuntu just gives you a different desktop, all your gnome and kde apps will run fine | 09:34 |
| scur | Gnome actually uses a system called GTK that's also used by xubuntu, so the look and feel is quite similar - xubuntu is just more lightweight | 09:35 |
| danny | Yup, I will even ship you a Xubuntu cd if it means that much to you. :-) | 09:35 |
| scur | just install xubuntu-desktop and you can give it a go - if you don't like it you can always go back. | 09:36 |
| danny | Couldn't be easier. | 09:36 |
| Lectus | Thanks danny, but I was just asking because Ubuntu and Kubuntu both have the ship-it. I'm already downloading the Xubuntu ISO, I'm going to give it a try. I really prefer to try the live CD and if I like it I will do a clean install. Ubuntu is really fine for me, but I'm just curious about Xubuntu. Also, I'll try to to revive an old PC with Xubuntu! :D | 09:38 |
| danny | :-) You're welcome and I would recommend not installing anything from a cd that some random guy on IRC sends you. | 09:39 |
| danny | I hope you enjoy it. | 09:39 |
| danny | I would imagine they don't ship the cd's because they are not part of the Ubuntu team. Just some people who though "Hey, this could be better!" and work with it. I could be wrong though. | 09:40 |
| danny | Feel free to correct me. | 09:40 |
| danny | *thought | 09:40 |
| Lectus | I have some doubt. I see lots of people talking about Ubuntu, but they talk a lot less about Kubuntu or Xubuntu. Does that mean they have less support or they are just Ubuntu with different desktop manager / default set of applications? | 09:42 |
| danny | Someone else might want to take this. I have my thoughts but it's definitely not my place to talk. | 09:43 |
| danny | Xubuntu would use, as far as I know, the same apt repositories as Ubuntu meaning applications, security updates and the like would all be there. | 09:44 |
| Lectus | So, Xubuntu has synaptic too? | 09:44 |
| danny | It looks that way. | 09:44 |
| danny | daniel@ubox:~$ ls /usr/sbin|grep synaptic | 09:45 |
| danny | synaptic | 09:45 |
| danny | daniel@ubox:~$ | 09:45 |
| danny | What sort of computer are you trying to revive? | 09:48 |
| danny | Older box I would imagine? | 09:49 |
| scur | Lectus, the desktop manager is the only real difference (i belive they also have different default e-mail clients and word processors, but that doesn't stop you installing the other). For the vast majority of cases, an xubuntu problem is also an ubuntu problem, so it's often easier to find support there (as more people use it) | 09:49 |
| Lectus | Cool! I'll give Xubuntu a try. I like this desktop choice from the same base. Lots of freedom to choose. | 09:50 |
| Lectus | I'm planning on installing on this one I'm running Ubuntu if I like Xubuntu better. And plus, I would try to install on a Celeron 700Mhz with 128MB RAM. | 09:51 |
| scur | yep, and you can have more than one in the same installation. i installed an ubuntu cd, and then installed xubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop | 09:51 |
| === aboyousif|DnD [n=aboyousi@196.20.45.65] has left #xubuntu ["Leaving"] | ||
| scur | i just chose which desktop manager i want when i log in (and it's always xfce from xubunut as that's my favourite) | 09:51 |
| danny | Ah, that box is a beauty compared to my old laptop. I used that thing as my main desktop for years. 360mhz of Intel goodness. | 09:52 |
| danny | Well, my main box. | 09:52 |
| Lectus | Yes, I think Xubuntu will do better on old PCs than Win98 (crashes too much) | 09:52 |
| danny | Probably a safe bet. | 09:52 |
| scur | it is pretty lightweight. | 09:53 |
| Lectus | I also like maximum performance instead of fancy GUIs, so I might try Xubuntu on this PC as well. | 09:53 |
| scur | but i'm running it on a dual screen 2ghz box, so it does work on newer things as well :) | 09:53 |
| Lectus | and Xubuntu still looks beautifull from screenshots | 09:54 |
| Lectus | so, i'm really curious about it :D | 09:54 |

| Lectus | Thanks for the info. | 09:57 |
| Lectus | I'm going away now. I'll wait for the download to complete and I'll be back later saying what was my feeling about Xubuntu. | 09:58 |
| danny | No problem. Later. | 09:58 |

| darrend | is anyone successfully getting beryl-manager to restart as part of the normal xfce session? | 10:17 |

| darrend | I only seem able to get it to restart if I add it to the "autostarted applications" config, which means that when I logout/in all my application windows stack up in the top left corner of the screen until finally the window manager gets loaded | 10:19 |
| darrend | tres annoying | 10:19 |

| Teshadael | If my system doesn't handle X compositing very well, is it safe to assume beryl won't run very good? | 10:38 |
| scur | in my experience, if your system is in any way out the ordinary beryl won't run very good... but i haven't tried it for a while :) | 10:39 |
| cjae | ok what are other good linux networks or ones that deal with open source besides freenode | 10:42 |

| Cannon_Ball | hi everybody | 11:35 |
| Cannon_Ball | i'm looking for help on a problem using the W32codecs | 11:35 |
| Cannon_Ball | is there anyone able to provide ideas? | 11:36 |
| Jester45 | i can try | 11:36 |
| Cannon_Ball | hi jester, thank you | 11:36 |
| Cannon_Ball | basically I have xubuntu, no special issues. I use a notebook Acer Travelmate 505 with a Neomagic graphcard | 11:37 |
| Cannon_Ball | I installed the w32codecs from medibuntu | 11:37 |
| Cannon_Ball | but when I try to open a wmv file I inherited from my previous M$ OS Gxine just shuts off | 11:38 |
| Jester45 | does xine need w32codecs? | 11:38 |
| Cannon_Ball | I tried with VLC as well, same behavior. Instead Xfmedia shows a blue screen | 11:39 |
| crimsun | no, xine doesn't. | 11:39 |
| crimsun | is libxine1-ffmpeg installed? | 11:39 |
| Cannon_Ball | I don't know, one second and I check | 11:39 |
| Cannon_Ball | hi Crimsun, thanks for your help | 11:39 |
| Jester45 | crimsun: thats what i was thinking | 11:40 |
| Jester45 | Cannon_Ball: w32codecs is only for mplayer | 11:40 |
| Cannon_Ball | Im checking synaptic | 11:40 |
| Cannon_Ball | yep, it is installed | 11:42 |
| Cannon_Ball | :-( | 11:42 |
| Jester45 | hey, pidgin has new similes | 11:43 |
| Cannon_Ball | do you have ideas as to where I can find indications? should I file a bug? | 11:45 |
| crimsun | Cannon_Ball: do you know what version wmv it is? | 11:46 |
| crimsun | Cannon_Ball: you may need to use mplayer+w32codecs | 11:46 |
| Cannon_Ball | i think also xine needs the codecs | 11:47 |
| Cannon_Ball | on medibuntu I found this: | 11:47 |
| Cannon_Ball | To work around this issue, external binary codecs are used instead to play these formats. MPlayer and xine use such external codecs and these codecs are stored in the MPlayer website in their codecs directory | 11:47 |
| Cannon_Ball | however I can try with mplayer | 11:47 |
| Cannon_Ball | wmv I tried both the wmv8 and the wmv9, no differences | 11:47 |
| Jester45 | xine cant use mplayers codecs | 11:48 |
| Jester45 | mplayers codecs are mad just for mplay they said so | 11:48 |
| Cannon_Ball | ok, I'll check with mplayer, thanks | 11:50 |
| Cannon_Ball | Ok, with MPlayer I have a Fatal Error opening initialising the selected video out device | 12:11 |
| Cannon_Ball | so I guess that, once again, it is an unresolved problem with my graph card | 12:12 |
