| rolfen | hey guys... what is FUSE? | 01:03 |
| rolfen | supposedly you can use FUSE to browse windows shares in thunar... but what exactly is FUSE | 01:04 |
| Pumpernickel | It's the filesystem in userspace framework. | 01:04 |
| rolfen | thanks | 01:04 |
| rolfen | do you have the link to the fuse homepage? | 01:05 |
| rolfen | i am googling but i did not find anything | 01:05 |
| rolfen | oh ok i found the sourceforge page | 01:05 |
| Conspiracy | Hmm should and are are 2 diffrent things aparently lol it took 5 min to boot and well 10 min ago I clicked the install shortcut and its hanging, might be that it has a more then anchient vid card in it as well, the vid card only has 8mb ram lol | 01:09 |
| Conspiracy | scratch the hang time its locked | 01:09 |
| Pumpernickel | Try the alternate cd. It uses a more mature installation system. | 01:12 |
| Conspiracy | think I might do that thanks im going to try and pass some things to the kernel first hehe this thing is anchient it still has 2 ISA slots on it the bios is pre 1997 | 01:13 |

| Conspiracy | im just trying to find somthign that will work on that box to justify keeping it around lol somthing semi usefull and easir to work with Damn Small Linux which seems to be semi broken I can get it to install I go through the steps to make it a full debian like install aka able to use apt-get and well apt-get still seems to be broken | 01:17 |
| Conspiracy | esier to work with then DSL rather | 01:18 |
| Conspiracy | thought about doing gentoo but I dont feel like wasteing a week or 2 to get everything compiled lol | 01:19 |
| rolfen | u guys think downloading the alternate cd is better? | 01:19 |
| rolfen | damn i have started downloading the live cd! | 01:19 |
| rolfen | Conspiracy ubuntu is good and works out of the box... mostly... exept for some multimedia stuff that you have to install yourself due to licence issues | 01:21 |
| Conspiracy | heh as I look at my ISO folder on my computer I just relised I have 20 diffrent flavers of linux | 01:21 |
| Conspiracy | im not too worried about multimedia | 01:21 |
| Conspiracy | thats what this box is for just somthing to check mail and surf when my wife steals my main pc cause she hates her laptop and well so do I lol | 01:22 |
| rolfen | well you'll need to install the flash plugin and movie plugins to see online videos but that's about it | 01:23 |
| rolfen | did u try fedora? | 01:24 |
| Conspiracy | I wish I could just migrate fully to linux I like it so much better the windbolws, but til I can find some decent broadcasting software for linux im stuck, as far as surfing I mainly just hit my stations forums and the irc :D | 01:24 |

| nikolam | What Bit Torrent Client with encryption do you use on Xubuntu? | 02:15 |
| rolfen | sorry i forgot :) | 02:15 |
| nikolam | I previously used Azureus on windows but as I moved to Xubuntu, I am wondering.. | 02:15 |
| rolfen | my xubuntu install is gone and i forgot which one i used | 02:16 |
| nikolam | Beacouse Azureus use just too much memory | 02:16 |
| nikolam | Ahh :) | 02:16 |
| nikolam | Why is gone? | 02:16 |
| nikolam | I am thinking abou deluge-torrent | 02:16 |
| rolfen | i reinstalled windows... and could not boot into xubuntu anymore | 02:16 |
| rolfen | you can go into synaptic and search for "bittorrent" | 02:17 |
| nikolam | That is not a problem is xubuntu on separate partition? | 02:17 |
| rolfen | yeah it was on a separate partition! | 02:17 |
| nikolam | Didi you try to boot from xubuntu CD again and launch repair shell from CD? | 02:18 |
| rolfen | well i have the alternate install CD | 02:18 |
| nikolam | I done something like that | 02:18 |
| nikolam | And with alternate | 02:18 |
| rolfen | i havent tried | 02:18 |
| nikolam | Boot to shell | 02:18 |
| rolfen | but now it's too late... the partition is overwritten | 02:18 |
| nikolam | Ypu have chroot command | 02:18 |
| rolfen | yes? | 02:19 |
| nikolam | Ergh, impationed one :) | 02:19 |

| nikolam | All bookmarks, hitory and mail, news database just switched, like I am still on windows :) | 02:20 |
| rolfen | cool | 02:20 |
| nikolam | Xubuntu/ubuntu are mostly the same | 02:20 |
| rolfen | yeah but with the xcfe instead of gnome | 02:20 |
| nikolam | just edited prefs.js in mozilla profile directory :) | 02:20 |
| nikolam | You can add both xfce to ubuntu as well as gnome to xubuntu | 02:21 |
| nikolam | :) | 02:21 |
| nikolam | And use Both :) | 02:21 |
| nikolam | As you like | 02:21 |
| nikolam | it is basically teh same thing :) | 02:21 |
| rolfen | yeah | 02:21 |
| rolfen | where is prefs.js in windows? | 02:22 |
| nikolam | So, well in your home directory. It is the same thing for firefox And Thunderbird as well as seamonkey | 02:22 |

| cheeseboy | how do i patch a kernel? | 04:30 |
| Jester45 | are you wanting to update ? | 04:31 |
| CapnJack | I want to dump windows as a server os, I like the rich GUI of xubuntu, is it well suited to use as 100% remote server? | 04:35 |
| Jester45 | yes | 04:35 |
| CapnJack | awesome | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | you can install a cli only server if you want for extra speed | 04:36 |
| CapnJack | cli only, as in "client only"? | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | command line only | 04:36 |
| CapnJack | ah, so I would lose the nice "remote desktop" feel? | 04:37 |
| Jester45 | you can remotly connect with ssh | 04:37 |
| Jester45 | it would be text only | 04:37 |
| CapnJack | if I do that is there any point in using vnc to administer? | 04:38 |
| Jester45 | linux's command line is a lot better and more powerful than window's. and it is what many gui programs use | 04:38 |
| Jester45 | you cant, there will be no gui | 04:38 |
| cheeseboy | anyone? | 04:38 |
| Jester45 | you could install it as normal with gui. then after you get used to linux (if your not allready) you can switch very simply without a reinstall | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | cheeseboy, i asked if your just wanting to update | 04:39 |
| CapnJack | i see | 04:39 |
| cheeseboy | Jester45, i want to patch to add support for xbox hardware\ | 04:40 |
| CapnJack | will still run all the same server apps as gui? | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, what apps are you talking about | 04:40 |
| CapnJack | specifically cPanel | 04:40 |
| CapnJack | and apache | 04:40 |
| CapnJack | I guess | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | cheeseboy, so... you might want to look at modprobe | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, both of those are (on linux) commandline programs | 04:41 |
| cheeseboy | Jester45, i need to apply the patch first | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, cPanel is php right? like wordpress and phpBB | 04:43 |
| CapnJack | I think cPanel itself is not php no | 04:44 |
| CapnJack | it's a webhosting control panel and supports php and mysql | 04:45 |
| Jester45 | but what does it run as | 04:45 |
| Jester45 | im looking into it now | 04:45 |
| CapnJack | I'm not really sure, I'm a linux noob. | 04:46 |
| CapnJack | as an apache plugin perhaps? | 04:46 |
| Jester45 | i figured that so i added in that you might like to start on a gui then later after you not some stuff you can switch to gain some speed | 04:46 |
| Jester45 | no it wouldnt be like that | 04:47 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, how do you install on windows | 04:47 |
| Jester45 | install it* | 04:47 |
| CapnJack | cPanel doesn't run on Windows | 04:47 |
| Jester45 | really | 04:47 |
| CapnJack | really | 04:47 |
| CapnJack | that's part of the reason I want to switch | 04:48 |
| CapnJack | nothing runs on Windows for very long anyway | 04:48 |
| Jester45 | even the kernel :) people reinstall so much | 04:49 |
| Pumpernickel | cheeseboy: #xbox-linux on oftc.net for Ubuntu/xbox support. | 04:49 |
| Jester45 | Pumpernickel, do you know how cPanel works? is ita program or somthing that apache runs like wordpress | 04:49 |
| Pumpernickel | I don't use it. | 04:51 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, it should run on command line only if not... its not a good program | 04:51 |
| Jester45 | CapnJack, but you could use the gui to set things up as it might be easier for a new user | 04:52 |
| Jester45 | then later remove the gui to make the server faster and more secure | 04:52 |
| CapnJack | I can't run command line only programs on xubuntu? | 04:52 |
| Jester45 | you can | 04:52 |
| Jester45 | many programs are cli only or use it as a backend | 04:53 |
| CapnJack | ok, then they are administered via ssh or are they accessible from a command prompt within the gui? | 04:53 |
| CapnJack | ..or both? | 04:53 |
| Jester45 | both | 04:53 |
| Jester45 | linux is very flexible | 04:53 |
| === shirish [n=shirish@59.95.12.16] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| CapnJack | ok, great, thank you so much | 04:53 |
| Jester45 | you can ssh in from a remote computer | 04:53 |
| Jester45 | or for xubuntu you can run Terminal to get a command prompt. if you do decide on useing linux you might want to read a little on how to use bash and to make bash scripts | 04:54 |

| nikolam | Jester: ;,,) | 05:06 |
| Jester45 | what spawns init? grub maybe | 05:06 |
| shirish | right, grub does the boot-loading | 05:06 |
| Jester45 | so grub runs init | 05:06 |
| shirish | although do have the option to also use grub2 | 05:06 |
| Jester45 | or is there a pre init process | 05:07 |
| shirish | Jester45: were u asking me what is my boot-loader or was that a question for nikolam | 05:07 |
| shirish | for I don't know anything about init, although do know that GRUB is my bootloader | 05:08 |

| nikolam | I will see for It. Maybe I didnt saw it upon install | 05:14 |
| nikolam | I suppose it shoud be installed after install | 05:15 |
| shirish | nikolam: correction I can use it, although currently using FF3 as my main browser | 05:15 |
| nikolam | ok :) | 05:15 |
| shirish | nikolam: if you are using tribe 2 look for iceape, it will give you the whole suite | 05:15 |
| nikolam | anyway I will not move from 7.04 until 7.10 is stable :) | 05:15 |
| nikolam | I will se. I was just testing it A bit | 05:16 |

| nikolam | So, what do you think when you compare gnome and xfce :) | 05:17 |
| nikolam | I always disliked ubuntu gnome`s brown style. | 05:17 |
| nikolam | And I just LOVE xfce`s configurability | 05:17 |
| nikolam | shirish: How iceape works do it works the same as seamonkey? | 05:18 |
| nikolam | any differences? | 05:19 |
| shirish | nikolam: haven't really played with either much, I usually use webmail but can see as far as memory consumption , if it uses more or less | 05:23 |
| Jester45 | nikolam, there are things called themes | 05:23 |
| Jester45 | and that have non brown ones to!!! | 05:23 |
| nikolam | Hmm. but default look is one I dont like. You know, if I install it on 20 machines or give it to 20 friends.. | 05:24 |
| nikolam | but I like xfce :) | 05:24 |
| shirish | nikolam: you should try out some of the themes, some are real good | 05:24 |
| Jester45 | or better yet use compiz+emerald | 05:25 |
| shirish | guys can somebody take a look at bug 124536 & lemme know if there is something missing, something I need to add? | 05:25 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 124536 in gdm "GDM login doesn't respect/stick the chosen locale" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/124536 | 05:25 |
| rolfen | is gnome better then xfce? | 05:25 |
| nikolam | Yes, but for xfce:) I like the way I can configure it | 05:25 |
| shirish | rolfen: matter of opinion, I like both :) | 05:25 |
| nikolam | I like xfce better | 05:26 |
| shirish | nikolam: that's because the GNOME developers chose to howdo I put this, not give as much configuration options unless you dive down under | 05:26 |
| rolfen | i know xfce but havent tried gnome yet... downloading ubuntu right now | 05:26 |
| === Jester45 uses all 3 | ||
| Jester45 | all 3 being KDE gnome and xfce | 05:26 |
| shirish | me using 3 but GNOME, XFCE & fluxbox | 05:27 |
| nikolam | you can install all three desktop environments on same install. It is just a matter of what packages are installed. kda, gnome, xfce or all of them :) | 05:27 |
| shirish | fluxbox is the new guy on the block though, so haven't played much with it, but good news for older machines I guess | 05:27 |
| Jester45 | fluxbox isnt new | 05:27 |
| shirish | it isn't new, but its new for me | 05:27 |
| shirish | as in doing day-to-day use, also they missed the whole 7.04 ubuntu development cycle | 05:28 |
| Jester45 | ? | 05:28 |
| twiggz | i prefer zenwalk. | 05:29 |
| twiggz | xubuntu isnt _that_ bad...but its still a fat girl...i like skinny girls. | 05:29 |
| shirish | Jester45: read the fluxbox main page, its all given there, they wanted to release fluxbuntu 7.04 but were 3 months late, hence now concentrating on 7.10 | 05:29 |
| Jester45 | o | 05:29 |
| Jester45 | o wel | 05:30 |
| Jester45 | l | 05:30 |
| Jester45 | i like DSL | 05:30 |
| shirish | hence fluxbox 1.0r3 where they are atm, I do like the way you can do some of the stuff in there. | 05:30 |
| shirish | same here, DSL is cool | 05:30 |

| nikolam | Hey guys how do you setup and manage your firewall. I installed Firestarter and it is nice for me, beacouse it is much like ZoneAlarm I used to use on Win. (without application control) Vut do you think is it good to use only that and what firewall setup/program do you prefer? | 05:37 |
| rolfen | i use good ol iptables hehe | 05:37 |
| rolfen | hardcore command line style | 05:38 |
| === Jester45 doesnt have a firewall | ||
| nikolam | The same as editing acces lists on firestarter, am I right? Firestarter uses iptables it is oonli GUI for iptables, right? | 05:38 |
| rolfen | but iptable can get very complex so it's really better to use a GUI | 05:38 |
| rolfen | yeah i think so | 05:39 |
| === shirish tried firestarter but was unable to compute how to play with it | ||
| nikolam | Shirish: I felt the same way at first sight. | 05:39 |
| nikolam | But after a while, realices You dont have to do anything if you are running just a workstation :) | 05:40 |
| nikolam | If you have some server, only then you open a port for it and that`s it :) | 05:40 |
| rolfen | yeah true | 05:40 |
| === shirish wonders does a home machine qualify as a workstation ? | ||
| Jester45 | what about packet priority | 05:41 |
| rolfen | shirish i guess it does | 05:41 |
| rolfen | you mean tc? | 05:41 |
| nikolam | Every ubuntu install (besides server) is ws/home install | 05:41 |
| tonyyarusso | shirish: depends. Do you work on it? | 05:41 |
| nikolam | LOL :)) | 05:41 |
| Jester45 | you have to set that up if you want a good speedy server | 05:41 |
| rolfen | Jester45 yup true | 05:42 |
| shirish | tonyyarusso: yup, day & night, except when mummy wants windows to play her games lol | 05:42 |
| rolfen | the most important part in my experience is prioritising the ACK packets | 05:42 |
| rolfen | so that uploads dont drown downloads | 05:42 |
| nikolam | rolfen: I will encourage mama to buy herself a PS3 :) and install Linux thare, too :)) | 05:43 |
| rolfen | you can install linux on a PS3? | 05:43 |
| nikolam | Of course :) Yellow dog, Fedora 5/6, hmmm, debian, hmmm and someone reported ubuntu :) | 05:44 |
| rolfen | cool | 05:44 |
| nikolam | But only 256MB ram for main memory | 05:44 |
| nikolam | +256 for gpu | 05:44 |
| nikolam | Many Universities buy 6+ of them or so and run clusters :) | 05:45 |
| nikolam | on Cell | 05:45 |
| Jester45 | the cpu is fast | 05:45 |
| shirish | rolfen: you can install linux & nikolam is right, also heard the bit about doing ubuntu on it | 05:45 |
| nikolam | But require kernel optinisation .. | 05:45 |
| nikolam | I only dislike that I cannot put easily 2 gigs of XDR RAM on PS3 :,) | 05:46 |

| nikolam | Why X windows system dies so often? | 05:49 |
| nikolam | I installed Super tux (stabile) platform game, turn OpenGl on, thrn switched it off | 05:50 |
| nikolam | And tux kills X windows | 05:50 |
| nikolam | And all my applications with it. | 05:50 |
| nikolam | So if applications on Linux work in preemptive multitasking, why crash of one application kill all X applications? | 05:51 |
| nikolam | ~:I | 05:51 |
| Pumpernickel | What video driver are you using? | 05:52 |
| nikolam | mga | 05:52 |
| nikolam | matrox g 400 | 05:52 |
| reaVer | nikolam: the short answer pretty much is: any application sends commands to X | 05:53 |
| reaVer | X handles those requests | 05:53 |
| reaVer | and that's what you'll be seeing on your display | 05:53 |
| reaVer | and that's how your application receives events | 05:54 |
| reaVer | if anything in X fucks up horribly, X crashes | 05:54 |
| reaVer | and all the applications that were connected to X get a disconnect and usually close | 05:54 |
| reaVer | I probably don't have to explain the scope of your problem:P | 05:55 |
| nikolam | How to configure X not to close all applications, so I can re-attach them on X restart? | 05:55 |
| nikolam | ;) | 05:55 |
| reaVer | you can't | 05:55 |
| nikolam | its not screen ;) | 05:55 |
| reaVer | applications can offer this option, but usually don't | 05:55 |
| nikolam | Thank you for your answer, so this is faulted by design,, | 05:55 |
| reaVer | can you reproduce the problem with a different OpenGL application? | 05:56 |
| reaVer | like Mame? | 05:56 |
| reaVer | nikolam: it could very well be your graphics card driver as Pumpernickel suggested | 05:56 |
| nikolam | hmm, will install mama and I will get back | 05:56 |
| reaVer | mame | 05:56 |
| reaVer | not mama | 05:56 |
| reaVer | mame | 05:56 |
| reaVer | sdlmame | 05:56 |
| nikolam | yes, emulator ok. I ll try | 05:56 |
| reaVer | which isn't in ubuntu, so you'd have to compile yourself | 05:56 |
| nikolam | Beautiful :) | 05:57 |
| nikolam | OK | 05:57 |
| reaVer | http://rbelmont.mameworld.info/?page_id=163 <---- given you know how it works ofcourse:P | 05:57 |
| nikolam | we have Mama in ubuntu | 05:57 |
| reaVer | I believe alt+home switches between soft and opengl | 05:57 |
| nikolam | xmame-tools, xmame, xmame-common and to on | 05:58 |
| reaVer | xmame is a little out of date:P | 05:58 |
| reaVer | last release was last august | 05:58 |
| nikolam | so compile new one, anyway, not to install packages. | 05:58 |
| nikolam | OK | 05:58 |
| nikolam | Ok, going to.. | 05:58 |
| Pumpernickel | There are other OpenGL games already packaged. | 05:59 |
| reaVer | Pumpernickel: do they have optional opengl? | 05:59 |
| Pumpernickel | Using one of those might be easier than compileing Mame just to test this. | 05:59 |
| reaVer | like on the fly? | 05:59 |
| Pumpernickel | Yeah, BZflag does. | 05:59 |
| reaVer | oh nikolam! | 05:59 |
| reaVer | skip mame, get BZflag! | 05:59 |
| nikolam | how fast system should be for fly! ? | 05:59 |
| reaVer | on the fly means when the application is running | 06:00 |
| Pumpernickel | Also, do any errors show up in /var/log/Xorg.*.log? | 06:00 |
| reaVer | often applications don't offer this feature because it's a pain in the ass | 06:00 |
| nikolam | Just a sec to check | 06:00 |

| nikolam | So need to adress more memory to card in bios? Dunno what is DRI | 06:13 |
| nikolam | card have 16MB | 06:13 |
| Pumpernickel | DRI is direct rendering. | 06:14 |
| nikolam | bzflag wont start as "bzflag" | 06:14 |
| nikolam | So, the card driver versus Old card equals "dont think about open gl" | 06:15 |
| Pumpernickel | It should still work through Mesa, just really slowly. | 06:15 |
| Pumpernickel | Since it's crashing, though, there's obviously something wrong. | 06:16 |

| BFTD | test3r no, I know how to get it, it just that if it autoremoves it, doesn't that mean like its out dated or something? | 06:31 |

| Pumpernickel | damike: Either. | 06:33 |
| damike | Pumpernickel, and which one do i need? ;) | 06:33 |

| TheSheep | maxamillion: it is, even if you count in all the qt | 10:50 |
| TheSheep | assasukasse: everything is lighter than firefox ;) | 10:50 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: wow, i didn't know that ... also didn't know it was written in qt | 10:50 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: that'swhy it looks so ugly ;) | 10:50 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: you should try to find an iceweasel build for ubuntu :D | 10:51 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: ah, makes sense | 10:51 |
| assasukasse | TheSheep: what is your suggestion about browser then? seamonkey, opera, or linx :D | 10:51 |
| TheSheep | assasukasse: links is good if you don't need graphics | 10:52 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: depends on what you need from a browser | 10:52 |

| assasukasse | TheSheep: just plain and normal browsing..with flash and all the stuffs | 10:52 |
| TheSheep | assasukasse: if you need images but not styles, dillo could be enough | 10:52 |
| TheSheep | assasukasse: ugh, flash and java are major memory hoggers | 10:52 |
| assasukasse | i know...urg i know.. | 10:53 |
| assasukasse | but they are needed... | 10:53 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: if you need flash you are basically stuck with a mozilla browser or opera | 10:53 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: or you could venture over to the gnuzilla side :) | 10:53 |
| assasukasse | maxamillion: iceweasel is lighter? | 10:53 |
| assasukasse | i didn't notice it :D | 10:53 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: not much, but yes | 10:53 |
| TheSheep | assasukasse: they started by removing 300MB of files from the sources... | 10:53 |
| TheSheep | ugh, sorry | 10:54 |
| maxamillion | ? | 10:54 |
| TheSheep | 300 files | 10:54 |
| maxamillion | rgr | 10:54 |
| maxamillion | i was like "wait, the sources were 300mb to begin with?" | 10:54 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: yes, iceweasel uses less ram .. the initial load time seems comparable though | 10:54 |
| TheSheep | I think the removed files were like 20-something MB, it's in their mailing list | 10:54 |
| maxamillion | but then again, we are talking about human noticable differences | 10:55 |
| assasukasse | seems is not there in synaptic, i suppose is somewhere in unofficial repos | 10:55 |
| maxamillion | which are very different from actual performance gain | 10:55 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: with 64MB ram, you can notice anything easily ;) | 10:55 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: true | 10:55 |
| assasukasse | thanks all.. | 10:56 |
| assasukasse | i gotta hit bed now :D | 10:56 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: wait, lemme check something | 10:56 |
| assasukasse | oki maxamillion | 10:56 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: bah! nvm ... thought i knew a place that would have iceweasel packaged for ubuntu, but it doesn't ... sorry | 10:57 |
| maxamillion | assasukasse: night night | 10:57 |
| assasukasse | nite maxamillion thanks anyway | 10:57 |
| maxamillion | anytime | 10:58 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: you really sitting on a machine with 64mb of ram? | 10:58 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: no, I added another 32MB and gave it away | 10:58 |
| Howdy125 | I could be if I pulled out a stik ..;) | 10:59 |
| maxamillion | Howdy125: well don't do that :P | 11:00 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: interesting | 11:00 |
| Howdy125 | I won't .. too many screws to remove .. :) | 11:01 |
| TheSheep | from the tricks that save memory: use 16bpp or less color depth, disable icons on the desktop, use the plain clock, not the orage clock, don't use too many panel applets, don't autostart anything, disable printing daemons | 11:02 |

| TheSheep | using bitmap icons instead of the svg vector ones saves several megs too | 11:02 |
| TheSheep | of course it looks ugly :/ | 11:03 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: when i need to save ram, i just run fluxbox+rox | 11:03 |
| maxamillion | but that is a little drastic in most cases | 11:03 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: is rox really lighter than thunar? | 11:03 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: when I want to save the ram, just don't start X :) | 11:04 |
| maxamillion | lol | 11:05 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: actually ... i'm not that sure rox is lighter than thunar now that you mention it | 11:05 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: they require alot of the same libs | 11:05 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: http://pastebin.ca/609367 | 11:06 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: apparently thunar depends on xfce4-panel? ... | 11:06 |

| damike | me again :) | 11:08 |
| damike | got a last question. i have choosen a screensaver - but nothing happens :( i set time to 1 minute and wated 10 - no action. do i have to start a special service for that? | 11:09 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: depends on how you compile it | 11:09 |
| TheSheep | maxamillion: thunar uses some of the panel's features | 11:09 |
| TheSheep | damike: it shouldbe starting automatically | 11:09 |
| maxamillion | TheSheep: interesting ... well, the debian etch package requires the panel :P | 11:10 |
| damike | TheSheep, hmm. doesnt work ;/ | 11:10 |
| maxamillion | damike: open a terminal and type "xscreensaver-demo" and select the screensaver you want and click "preview" ... see if it will work that way | 11:10 |
| damike | maxamillion, yes works perfectly | 11:11 |
| maxamillion | damike: interesting | 11:11 |
| damike | also restarted the daemon | 11:11 |
| damike | i have done lots of updates - i restart - maybe then it works | 11:13 |
| maxamillion | damike: yeah, try to restart after the updates ... if that doesn't work then check bug reports or file one | 11:14 |
| damike | ok brb | 11:14 |
