| DaBeowulf | Anyway here: Failed to execute child process "/home/ubuntu/Desktop/adom/adom" (No such file or directory). | 12:30 |
| DaBeowulf | But what did I try to execute then? | 12:31 |
| TheSheep | DaBeowulf: I think that adom is in the repositories | 12:31 |
| TheSheep | !info adom | 12:32 |
| ubotu | Package adom does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas | 12:32 |
| TheSheep | :/ | 12:32 |
| TheSheep | or not | 12:32 |
| DaBeowulf | What would that mean 'in the repositories'? | 12:32 |
| DaBeowulf | Anyway why does it tell me it's not there when I try to execute it? O_o | 12:32 |
| TheSheep | DaBeowulf: how did you run it? | 12:34 |
| TheSheep | (try to run) | 12:34 |
| DaBeowulf | double click or right click -> execute | 12:34 |
| DaBeowulf | Is it because I only booted the OS from the CD? | 12:35 |
| TheSheep | DaBeowulf: no, open a terminal and try to run it from there | 12:35 |
| TheSheep | DaBeowulf: you see, adom i s text-mode game, it needs a terminal to run | 12:35 |
| TheSheep | (although the error message is weird) | 12:36 |
| DaBeowulf | what is the command? when I type adom it says command not found although dir shows it | 12:36 |

| TheSheep | cd Desktop/adom | 12:37 |

| xubuntu-live-use | hello, i'm curious, is there a way to get icons to preview the file like gnome does in ubuntu? | 12:58 |
| xubuntu-live-use | for instance, if the file is a video or a picture, it will be a slightly large icon with a snapshot/preview of the file. | 12:58 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu-live-use: yes, you just need the thumbnailer for that particular kind of files installed | 12:58 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu-live-use: there is a thumbnailer for images installed by default | 12:59 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu-live-use: the thumbnailer for movies is included in the totem package | 12:59 |
| xubuntu-live-use | so, i need to specify that these thumbnailer apps run at startup? | 01:00 |
| Catoptromancy | mine work by default | 01:00 |
| Catoptromancy | should be something in preferences or view | 01:00 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu-live-use: no, you just need to have them installed | 01:00 |
| TheSheep | xubuntu-live-use: you don't have thumbnails for images? | 01:01 |
| xubuntu-live-use | TheSheep: nope, i've put some movies and pics on the desktop to test this. | 01:02 |

| Jester45 | looks like somthing got erased on the harddrive | 02:13 |

| j1mc | hi Nikilos | 08:46 |
| Nikilos | I have been trying to install a theme on Xubuntu, but it doesn't seem to be working | 08:47 |
| Nikilos | Can anyone help me? | 08:47 |
| j1mc | hmmm... ok. | 08:47 |
| j1mc | i'll try | 08:47 |
| j1mc | where are you trying to install the theme? what folder? | 08:47 |
| Nikilos | Well, I've tried /usr/shared/themes and /home/%user%/.themes | 08:48 |
| Nikilos | Both don't work | 08:48 |
| j1mc | ok. how did you "unpack" the theme files, did you use ... i think it's called xarchiver? | 08:49 |
| j1mc | ... you're trying to add the files to the right folders, though. | 08:49 |
| Nikilos | Yes, I used Xarchiver | 08:49 |
| j1mc | actually, i think it's /usr/share/themes... (not /usr/share...) | 08:49 |
| j1mc | i mean, not /usr/shareD | 08:49 |
| j1mc | but anyway... :) | 08:49 |
| j1mc | one thing to check is that you mark the check box that says to use the full path (when you unpack the file) | 08:50 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: where can you download the ubuntu packages from? | 08:50 |
| j1mc | hyper__ch: which ubuntu packages? | 08:50 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: the ones you can install through apt | 08:50 |
| j1mc | hyper__ch: you mean, where does ubuntu store the .deb files that you download through apt? | 08:51 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: no, where I can download the .deb files from the ubuntu repos | 08:52 |
| j1mc | hyper__ch: do you want to download all of them, or just a specific one or two? | 08:52 |
| j1mc | Nikilos: did my comment help? | 08:52 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: I just want to know where they can be downloaded from :) | 08:52 |
| j1mc | i know how you can DL individual packages... (hold on a sec... i'll give an example) | 08:53 |
| j1mc | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+search | 08:54 |
| j1mc | you can search for packages there | 08:54 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: all I know is a web adress for a browser to point to that can be used to download the .deb packages | 08:54 |
| j1mc | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/amd64/xfce4-panel/4.4.1-1ubuntu1 | 08:55 |
| j1mc | that's where you could get the .deb for xfce4-panel | 08:56 |
| Nikilos | I'd like to install this theme here: http://www.xfce-look.org/content/show.php/etude-4?content=54509 but failed to do so | 08:56 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: found now this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ that's simpler to use | 08:58 |
| j1mc | hyper__ch: that should let you see the packages, but i don't think it will let you install them. | 08:58 |
| j1mc | or download them... not from there, anyway. | 08:59 |
| hyper__ch | j1mc: it does.... it finally lists the mirrors and from there you can then download the .debs | 08:59 |
| j1mc | Nikilos: when you open up xarchiver, do you see two check boxes along the lower right-hand side? | 08:59 |
| j1mc | hyper__ch: oh, cool. :) | 08:59 |
| Nikilos | Let me check... | 09:00 |
| hyper__ch | it looks exactely the same as the package thingy for debian :) | 09:00 |
| Nikilos | No, I don't see two check boxes | 09:00 |
| j1mc | Nikilos: give me a moment... | 09:00 |
| hyper__ch | since I enabled uPnP in KTorrent it runs really neatly :) | 09:02 |
| j1mc | Nikilos: ok... when you select the tar.bz2 file in xarchiver... and then go to extract it, you should see the check boxes | 09:02 |
| j1mc | does one of the check boxes say, "recreate folders" or "use full path" or something similar? | 09:03 |
| Nikilos | "Extract Here" or "Extract To"? | 09:03 |
| j1mc | try Extract To | 09:03 |
| Nikilos | It says "Files to Extract" and the options are "All" and "Only Selected" | 09:04 |
| j1mc | ok, select all... | 09:04 |
| j1mc | then what happens | 09:04 |
| Nikilos | Well, it extracts all the files to a specified location | 09:05 |
| j1mc | when you open up that extracted folder, what's inside of it | 09:06 |
| Nikilos | Another folder called etude-4.6 | 09:06 |
| j1mc | and what's inside of that folder? | 09:07 |
| Nikilos | Another folder called xfwm4 | 09:07 |
| j1mc | ok... cool. | 09:07 |
| j1mc | so what is the name of the folder that you pasted into your /usr/share/themes folder? | 09:08 |
| Nikilos | I actually deleted that folder a bit ago | 09:08 |
| Nikilos | So I don't remember | 09:08 |
| j1mc | ok, well... try pasting the e-tude... folder into the appropriate location. | 09:09 |
| Nikilos | Which is /usr/share/themes, correct? | 09:09 |
| j1mc | yes | 09:09 |
| Nikilos | And do I run User Interface Settings now? | 09:10 |
| j1mc | or you should be able to just go to your home directory and type "mkdir .themes" | 09:10 |
| j1mc | and install the folder there. | 09:10 |
| Nikilos | Do I type that in Terminal? | 09:10 |
| j1mc | yes | 09:10 |
| Nikilos | Ok, I have the folder in .themes now | 09:13 |
| j1mc | ok. is it in your user interface chooser option list? | 09:13 |
| === j1mc hopes that it is... | ||
| Nikilos | Should the folder order be like this? /.themes/etude-4.6/xfwm4? | 09:13 |
| j1mc | yeah, i think so | 09:14 |
| Nikilos | Because it's not showing up in the list | 09:14 |

| Nikilos | Sure | 09:20 |
| Nikilos | Ok, it's up | 09:20 |

| j1mc | it is difficult for me to help with xubuntu when i'm running gnome on top of debian on my dsktop, so i think i need to put xubuntu on it. :) | 09:22 |

| hyper__ch | how is deb 4.0? | 09:23 |
| j1mc | it's been good. | 09:23 |
| j1mc | i'm actually running "lenny" which is the new name for debian testing. | 09:23 |
| j1mc | it's pretty much the same as etch right now, though. | 09:24 |
| hyper__ch | is it usable as desktop-os? | 09:24 |
| j1mc | nothing too drastially different. | 09:24 |
| j1mc | i would say yes. definitely. | 09:24 |
| hyper__ch | ok... I still tend to think debian is great for servers and ubuntu great for desktops :) | 09:24 |
| j1mc | yeah, ubuntu has a slight edge on the desktop, but the latest debians still have a lot going for them on the desktop. | 09:25 |

| hyper_ch | thirdy_: do you have the proprietary nvidia drivers installed? | 02:40 |
| tripppy | hyper_ch, well i have ALOT of hardware and i would like a guide or somehing so i can plug in some hardware specs and get a recommended ubuntu install | 02:41 |

| thirdy_ | what should I get? | 02:43 |
| hyper_ch | thirdy_: how should I know? | 02:43 |
| tripppy | hyper_ch, same hardware but a bigger HDD? could i run xubuntu? | 02:44 |
| hyper_ch | with a hd of 256mb you should consider using DamnSmallLInux or featherlinux | 02:44 |
| thirdy_ | dats my prob | 02:44 |
| tripppy | yeah i know... | 02:44 |
| hyper_ch | tripppy: yes, xubuntu would be the only one... but even 128 mb ram are quite low | 02:44 |
| tripppy | kk | 02:44 |
| thirdy_ | I'll have to try it, install it | 02:44 |
| hyper_ch | you'd be better of using dsl or feather.... | 02:45 |
| tripppy | yeah i know. i use DSL alot. | 02:45 |

| ubotu | Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 04:48 |
| TheSheep | !fstab | 04:48 |
| ubotu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 04:48 |
| === vidd_laptop [n=vidd@216-107-0-212-dhcp.nni.com] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| grazie | lunixman: "sudo fdisk -l" is the usual way to list partitions | 04:59 |
| lunixman | grazie: i already tried that, but it only listed my partitions, it didnt make them accessible through my /media folder | 05:00 |
| grazie | lunixman: then you have to mount manually or add entries to /etc/fstab as above ^^ | 05:01 |
| lunixman | how do i mount manually? | 05:01 |
| lunixman | through the command prompt | 05:02 |
| lunixman | last time i remember some guy gave me a command | 05:02 |
| lunixman | and it automatically installed my extra drive | 05:02 |
| Cinnander | man mount | 05:04 |
| grazie | lunixman: "sudo mount /dev/hdx /media/mount-dir" where hdx=partition device and mount-dir is the mount dir which you probably want to create. This will be lost on reboot | 05:04 |

| grazie | lunixman: you should always unmount manually mounted devices after using them. "sudo umount /media/mount-dir" | 05:09 |

| thirdy_ | now sometimes I just get a blank scree on boot up | 06:00 |

| Jester45 | reiserfs v4 seems much faster | 09:38 |
| kalikiana | Jester45, ReiserFS *is* fast, but possibly unstable. | 09:43 |
| kalikiana | Many people say it's way faster than ext3. | 09:43 |
| Jester45 | i would say 20-30 % faster | 09:44 |
| kalikiana | So you got ya answer. | 09:44 |
| Jester45 | v3 isnt much faster | 09:44 |
| Jester45 | xfs is ok on low spec machines | 09:45 |
| Jester45 | and i dont really care for jfs | 09:45 |

| B1zz | yeah, im sorry, I have a kvm switch and i was on the other pc | 10:36 |
| vidd_laptop | ah...ic | 10:36 |
| Jester45 | so what do you do at your work vidd, you never seem busy | 10:36 |
| Jester45 | well tell me in out channel | 10:37 |
| vidd_laptop | are you able to access the router set-up pages on the problem machine? | 10:37 |
| B1zz | well yes and no. I have 2 wireless routers set up. It hooked up to the 2nd one, and i was able to get the page. But that's not the one that has the internet. so i unpluged it | 10:38 |
| B1zz | now im trying to get access to the other on, and cant seem to get the page to load | 10:38 |
| vidd_laptop | B1zz, you are going to need to ifdown then ifup your wireless card to get that to happen..... | 10:40 |
| B1zz | yeah thats what i am doing. | 10:40 |
| B1zz | weird, the connection is unstable now, it says connecting to the router it connects, but when i do dhclien, it looses the ap and the it does not grab an ip and it just loops that | 10:46 |
| vidd_laptop | why are you doing dhclient? | 10:46 |
| B1zz | to grab an ip? | 10:47 |
| vidd_laptop | what happens when you type iwconfig? | 10:47 |
| vidd_laptop | and what kind of wireless card you got? | 10:47 |
| B1zz | gives me my info. AP mac and my wireless network name | 10:48 |
| === vidd_laptop is looking for the "access point" | ||
| vidd_laptop | ok....does the router have MAC filtering turned on? | 10:48 |
| B1zz | nope | 10:48 |
| vidd_laptop | what kind of wireless security do you have in place? | 10:49 |
| B1zz | wpa | 10:49 |
| === vidd_laptop is not familiar with wpa..... | ||
| === vidd_laptop uses the MUCH less secure wep, with mac filtering | ||
| Jester45 | couldnt you just use MAC filtering? | 10:50 |
| B1zz | yeah, i could, but i prefer wpa :D | 10:51 |
| vidd_laptop | do you have wpa-suplicant [or whatever they use for it these days] installed? | 10:51 |
| vidd_laptop | and coded correctly? | 10:51 |
| B1zz | im sure i do, but i will verify. I will go back to google, and do a search for my problem. Maybe it will fix the problem i was asking you about too :D | 10:52 |

| Ramla | for example: Option"MetaModes""1024x768_60 800x600_60" | 12:08 |
