[12:49] you can make a link to the desktop [12:50] right click send to desktop (create a link) [12:50] hmm [12:50] but no Copy/Paste Link? === newuser01 [n=jose@10.59.103.87.rev.vodafone.pt] has left #xubuntu [] === twiggz [n=mike@75-161-39-243.albq.qwest.net] has joined #xubuntu [12:58] will apt-get upgrade work easily to get from 6.06 to the latest release? [12:59] its dist-upgrade [12:59] but many people have had problems upgrading over more than 1 version [01:04] bummer. [01:05] im not an ubuntu user....but the gf needs a better OS and i dont particularly feel like downloading another damn cd....so i reckon she will have to give that a try. or live with zenwalk like normal people. [01:07] twiggz: The amount you will have to download to upgrade from 6.06 to 7.04 will be almost the same as downloading the CD image for 7.04 [01:07] Does xubuntu ship cd's ?

[01:19] hi [01:19] shoot [01:19] <__Serge__> why should i choose xubuntu instead of ubuntu or kubuntu? [01:20] because its faster and looks better [01:20] and why not? === Smygis [n=smygis@e611.cust.vannas.net] has joined #xubuntu [01:21] <__Serge__> ok but... [01:22] <__Serge__> i think xubuntu is faster and lighter than ubuntu because it has not some things that ubuntu has... [01:22] <__Serge__> am i right? [01:22] partly [01:23] its not just a striped down gnome === Laibsch [n=Laibsch@p54B97BB2.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #xubuntu [01:23] its just a alternative to KDE and GNOME that is faster [01:24] it doesnt have a setting manager for everything like KDE [01:26] its kinda in the middle GNOME gives little for the user to configure how he/she likes. and KDE has odles of settings. xfce has a number of settings but not 20,000 of them [01:27] <__Serge__> i see [01:27] and it has less integrated programs like KDE [01:27] <__Serge__> but, for example... [01:27] <__Serge__> can i play music with xubuntu? [01:27] yes [01:27] you can install the same packages as ubuntu or kubuntu [01:27] <__Serge__> nice... [01:28] they all use the same repo [01:28] the only diffrence if the defualt installed packages [01:29] you can take a kubuntu install remove all the KDE stuff and install ubuntu-desktop and you will have an ubuntu install. remove all the GNOME stuff and you can get xubuntu-desktop. [01:30] <__Serge__> nice... [01:30] <__Serge__> very flexible stuff... [01:30] they have the same core packages. doing what i said above noramly leaves leftovers unless you remove every package. one way to isntall xubuntu is install a ubuntu server (command line only) and then isntall xubuntu-desktop to get the gui [01:31] a lot of xubuntu users use Konversation on their system [01:31] or replace mousepad with Kate [01:31] <__Serge__> what is kate? [01:31] or xfce-terminal with gnomes [01:31] I use Gedit [01:31] one of KDE's numerous text editors === Jester45 uses nano [01:32] <__Serge__> ok === HorD [n=HorD@unaffiliated/hord] has joined #xubuntu [01:33] __Serge__, so if you feel like it you can install xubuntu try it and if you dont like try the other *-desktop packages and find one you like === HorD [n=HorD@unaffiliated/hord] has joined #xubuntu [01:33] then you might want to install from a cd that desktop because useing the -desktop packages leaves stuff behind [01:34] <__Serge__> very nice...

[02:00] no linux can have an executable with the extension .txt if you wanted [02:00] <__Serge__> WHAT????

[02:11] there is clamav but thats is for scaning files so windows doesnt get it from linux [02:11] hehe [02:11] why do you think a lot of web servers run linux/unix/or a bsd [02:11] <__Serge__> i see... [02:11] <__Serge__> it's amazing... [02:11] theres that, and most linux users don't run as root (equivalent to Admin in windows) [02:12] <__Serge__> right now i'm using an antiviros that uses like 100MB of RAM [02:12] <__Serge__> and a lot of CPU [02:12] Norton? =p [02:12] <__Serge__> lol... ; ) [02:12] Most recommend Avast *shrugs* [02:13] <__Serge__> and if i don't need an antivirus... then i'll have a lot more free cpu and ram... [02:13] norton is the worst and it cost money... kinda like windows [02:13] <__Serge__> yeah...

[02:24] <__Serge__> which one of the ubuntus flavors have that? [02:24] <__Serge__> i love that windows.. [02:24] all of them can get it [02:24] <__Serge__> and how? [02:25] ubuntu as the best support but thats only because thats the most used one [02:25] there is 2 ways to get good support [02:25] use beryl or use compiz [02:25] Xubuntu's default transparency is only transparency. You get more effects with Compiz. [02:25] look on some video sites for ubuntu+beryl [02:25] <__Serge__> all right.. [02:26] and its slower than compiz's [02:26] <__Serge__> then xubuntu is the one with that effect of transparency...? [02:26] ubuntu has it also [02:26] and kubuntu probly does [02:26] <__Serge__> really? where? [02:26] <__Serge__> i tried the live version of ubuntu 7.04 [02:27] <__Serge__> and i didn't find it.. [02:27] ubuntu also has some compiz features like the desktop cube and wiggly windows [02:27] umm [02:27] system -> effects i think [02:27] Ubuntu has Metacity, which I believe can make transparency. Xubuntu's XFWM4 and Kubuntu's KWin can I know. [02:27] <__Serge__> okay [02:27] alt-F2 [02:28] desktop-effects [02:28] I got both the later ones working.

[04:44] the x error is something like the versions arent matching [04:44] That would be because there's a mismatch between what's available for the kernel and what's available for xorg. [04:44] right but it installs fine... doesn't error until reboot [04:44] It really will save you a lot of bother if you use the driver from the repository. [04:44] it does the same thing === HorD is back. [04:44] so long as i use nvidia in xorg.conf it does it [04:44] and it upgrades from the repo [04:44] i'd do that if i could... i only dl'd the one off the site to try and fix it [04:44] maybe blacklist the kernel one?

[04:45] dunno [04:45] do you have reiserfsv3 or v4 [04:45] 3 [04:45] hehe [04:45] i think [04:45] v3 isnt that much faster than other fs [04:45] at least to me [04:45] yea i don't find it fast at all [04:47] you use anything other than defaults in fstab? [04:49] notail,errors=remount-ro [04:51] 0 2 ? [04:52] 0 1 [04:52] leave defaults? [04:53] or is that wrong?

[04:32] i tried burning the image using nero! then tried it with infrarecorder [04:32] yes i can [04:32] Do you have access to another machine that you can test the CD in? [04:32] yes [04:32] same thing [04:32] i even thought my cd rw is faulty! i moved the ISO to my laptop and tried burning again.. same thing! [04:32] i thought the iso pack is faulty! so i downloaded from another mirror.. same issue [04:32] I've seen issues with some CD readers not being able to boot from some types of burned CDs, usually I have trouble with the blanks that have a light green color. [04:32] hmm [04:32] i tried a different type [04:32] But if you can write to it, that writer at the least should be able to burn it. [04:32] i first used LG cd [04:32] then i switched to sony [04:32] b00t, what speed did you burn? [04:32] 8 [04:32] too fast.... [04:32] cant burn lower than tht [04:32] thts tthe minimum [04:32] you cant burn @ 4x? [04:32] no [04:32] the minimum allowed is 8 [04:32] allowed by what? [04:32] by cd rw [04:32] in nero the minimum is 8 [04:32] in infrarecorder i chose 1.. but it burned @ 8x === vidd_laptop hates burning in windows [04:33] what format type did you choose?

[04:33] yes of course [04:33] i can explore the cd normaly [04:33] though it wont autostart (as it should if it were a bootable cd) [04:33] did you have the boot cd thing active when you burned in nero? [04:33] um [04:33] (its been a LONG time since i burned iso's in windows) [04:33] Autostart and bootable don't have anything to do with each other. [04:33] ... how much ram do you have? [04:33] 256 [04:33] vidd_laptop i didnt get ur question [04:33] nero has a setting that says "make cd bootable" [04:33] vidd_laptop, if it was an iso, you shouldnt have to do anything [04:33] that MUST be active to have the cd bootable [04:33] exactly [04:33] its an iso i downloaded it from a french mirror from the xubuntu site [04:33] R[a] ndom, this is windows he's burning from...not linux [04:33] yes. [04:33] i even downloaded another one from another mirror just for the chance of being faulty [04:33] otherwise who would use nero? [04:33] b00t, check md5 if youre worried about that [04:34] i did [04:34] same sum [04:34] Nero is available for Linux, for some reason or another. [04:34] i checked it 3 times allready [04:34] other cds do boot tho? [04:34] its not bios settings? [04:34] yees of course [04:34] everything boots up perfectly [04:34] and from my experience with nero, if you make image from nero and you DONT select make bootable, you get a perfectly formed, non-bootable disk [04:34] its just the xubuntu cds [04:35] vidd_laptop i thought its a nero problem so i downloaded infrarecorder (as instructed in the xubuntu iso burning procedure) and burned with it [04:35] same issue [04:35] and you still cant burn at a slower speed then 8x? [04:36] I dont think I can on my drive [04:36] yup [04:36] the cd rw has minimum of 8 and a max of 52 [04:36] and my dvd rw has a minimum of 16 [04:36] the cd drive that is READING it....what speed is it? === mrmonday [n=mrmonday@unaffiliated/mrmonday] has joined #xubuntu [04:37] !xubuntu [04:37] xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome.

[04:40] so you could make the paritions ten gajillion gigs, and it wouldnt make a difference :P [04:41] b00t, idn [04:41] hmm [04:41] b00t, I dunno man. Other bootable cds burnt wiht this burner, and tried on the other drive.. do they work? [04:41] u and me both.. this is so annoying [04:41] I have used 3 for ubuntu, so I'll go for that [04:41] R[a] ndom yes perfectly [04:41] You could, but then the flux capacitor would explode.

[04:42] normal [04:42] just normal [04:42] b00t, try to get the alt [04:42] try the alt [04:42] I prefer it anyway [04:42] i dunno the difference between these 2 but i know tht i downloaded the "normal" one [04:42] its just not a live cd [04:42] or the netboot.... [04:42] b00t, the alternate has no live cd, just text based installation [04:42] um [04:42] its easy tho [04:43] oh ok [04:43] same size?! [04:43] its gonna take me forever to download here (am on isdn right now) [04:43] could netboot as vidd_laptop said [04:43] b00t, then get the mini-iso.... [04:43] http://www.vidd.us/downloads [04:43] vidd_laptop i thought of doing so.. but the mini iso would wipe clean the HDD and i want linux to b dual boot with xp [04:44] so set it to dual boot [04:44] the mini doesnt have the partitioning jibberjab? [04:44] of course it does [04:44] weird [04:44] i tried it b4 [04:44] it wiped it clean [04:44] a DSL !

[11:18] no one has bothered to shoot me in thead yet he [11:18] kalikiana, took you all this time to think that up? [11:20] hyper_ch, you were talking about mm's sicko.....what is that? [11:20] michael moore's docu/critics on the american health "care" system [11:21] hyper_ch, nice (and appropriate) use of quotes [11:21] vidd_laptop: according from what I see/hear there they are very appropriate... ahve you seen it? [11:21] no.....give me a link? [11:22] downloaded it from piratebay [11:23] but I guess, you being in the US, it's not really an option for you === vidd_laptop is fortunant to not get sick [11:24] vidd_laptop: get a spouse over in canada and whenever you have some problems go over there :) [11:24] plus...there is always the option to run to canada and die waiting for "free" treatment [11:24] die waiting? [11:24] didn't look like it in sicko [11:24] hrm [11:25] get private health care then [11:25] exaactly.... [11:25] how much is it? [11:25] my job has health benifits === Pumpernickel nudges everyone into -offtopic === vidd_laptop needs to go home..... [11:26] hyper_ch, hop over to #viddandme and we can talk more in .... 20-30 minutes === kalikiana_ [n=kalikian@xdsl-87-78-23-235.netcologne.de] has joined #xubuntu [11:31] Pumpernickel: why going offtopic if no one here is asking for help? [11:38] how does one play m4a video files? [11:39] m4v === pjk0334 [n=paul@ppp-70-255-21-68.dsl.spfdmo.swbell.net] has joined #xubuntu [11:41] i am having problems installing xubuntu...ubuntu installed fine, but xubuntu fails to format the main partition into ext3 [11:41] hrm [11:41] BFTD: what format is that? [11:41] BFTD: VLC works quite well. [11:42] pjk0334 try formatting it into resierFS then [11:42] .m4v [11:42] bug 107259 [11:42] Launchpad bug 107259 in ubiquity "Xubuntu partitioning can fail because ubiquity does not prevent thunar from automounting new partitions" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/107259 [11:42] BFTD: never seen that before [11:42] pjk0334: did you try with the alternate install cd? [11:42] hyper_ch its an iTunes video format [11:42] i have not tried the alternate yet [11:42] yiiiiieeeekkks [11:42] iTunes... bad, bad word :) [11:43] pjk0334: you may want to try that [11:43] pjk0334: thunar shouldn't be interfering there [11:43] It's a video container format. It can hold just about any actual video format. [11:43] m4v is actually mpeg4 video ;) === hyper_ch uses Matrovska [11:43] here is the story of my plight: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=491970 [11:44] And h243 packed into mpeg4 is not at all bad. [11:45] the alternate is text based installer, right? [11:45] yes [11:45] is it easy to follow? [11:45] yup [11:46] ok, perhaps i will try it...this is an older system and I really think that xubuntu will run nicely on it [11:46] pjk0334: well, it requires you to read... but besides that there are no difficulties :) [11:46] VLC isn't playing it [11:46] ubuntu runs OK, but not great [11:46] so what would be the cause of a problem like this? i have tried different HD's even [11:47] P III here with 128 megs of ram and xubuntu is working well for me. === OGDA [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.216.26.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu [11:48] i just cannot understand why ubuntu installs just fine, but not xubuntu [11:48] pjk0334, In this case it appears to be a problem with Thunar. But ubuntu doesn't have Thunar. [11:49] thunar? [11:49] am I missing like some kind of codec or something? [11:49] pjk0334, Thunar is XFCE's file manager. [11:50] pjk0334, Ubuntu uses Nautilus (Gnome) instead. [11:50] don't they both use gparted as the partioner though? [11:51] Parted, usually, through various front-ends. [11:52] The problem with the LiveCD installer is that Thunar, in its default configuration, tries to automount all partitions, including the ones you're trying to create. [11:52] ahhh [11:53] is that why windows would pop up showing the contents of the drive while i was in the middle of partioning? [11:54] This the 64 meg computer pjk0334 [11:55] nm .. I just reread your post.. [11:55] 64 meg video ;-) === gnomefre1k [n=gnomefre@adsl-144-154-160.rmo.bellsouth.net] has joined #xubuntu [11:59] yeah, 64 mb video [11:59] 384 ram [11:59] p3 800 [12:00] so the alternate cd installer does not use Thunar i take it? [12:01] Exactly. [12:03] Alternate is the only way to go IMO === vidd [n=vidd@207-172-178-217.c3-0.tlg-ubr6.atw-tlg.pa.cable.rcn.com] has joined #xubuntu [12:05] so why does xubuntu even have a live install option? === BFTD [n=thomas@dialup-4.246.216.26.Dial1.SanJose1.Level3.net] has joined #xubuntu [12:07] Some people may wish to try it out before installing would be my guess. [12:09] sure, the live cd....but if the installer doesnt work well with the file manager, why have that option? [12:09] anyways...i will try the alt cd [12:09] thanks for your help [12:09] yw .. gl === cliebow_ [n=cliebow@cpe-76-179-82-249.maine.res.rr.com] has joined #xubuntu === merhojt [n=Jimmy@h88n2c1o885.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #xubuntu === merhojt [n=Jimmy@h88n2c1o885.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #xubuntu
