| Jester45 | Redimere, are you using feisty (its the only version with it) | 01:08 |
| nalioth | nixternal: we are always around | 01:08 |
| Redimere | I might be, I honestly don't know. I installed 6.06LTS at first, then used the update manager to go to 6.10 and then feisty to make my sound work. | 01:08 |
| nixternal | nalioth: that sucapulli guy who just left has hit #kubuntu and #ubuntu and I figured he would be in here doing the same | 01:09 |
| nalioth | we'll see | 01:09 |
| Redimere | Is there a good way to tell? | 01:09 |
| Redimere | Jester45: ? | 01:14 |
| Jester45 | Redimere, xubuntu feisty fawn 7.04 is the only version that has the restricted driver manager | 01:15 |
| Redimere | yes, and I did the FAQ to install feisty | 01:15 |
| Redimere | I'm not sure if the upgrade kicked in or not. Is there a good way to tell? | 01:15 |
| Redimere | Err... How-to | 01:16 |
| Redimere | not FAQ. >.> | 01:16 |
| Jester45 | Redimere, look in /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:16 |
| Jester45 | and see what version | 01:16 |
| Redimere | Feisty | 01:17 |
| Jester45 | humm | 01:18 |
| Jester45 | ii cant tell you the command as i removed it from my menu | 01:18 |
| Jester45 | but there is a command there is a command for everything | 01:18 |
| Redimere | Right, but damned if I know what it is | 01:18 |
| Redimere | because I lost my gnome start button somehow... and I dunno how to put it back | 01:18 |
| vidd | what are you looking for? | 01:19 |
| Redimere | Restricted Driver's manager | 01:19 |
| vidd | Jester45, what command? | 01:19 |
| vidd | ok....one sec | 01:20 |
| Jester45 | look in the /usr/share/applications/ folder and find a .desktop file that sounds like the right one. then run cat /path/to/file.desktop | grep Exec | 01:21 |
| Jester45 | that might be it | 01:22 |
| vidd | Redimere, gksudo restricted-manager | 01:22 |
| Jester45 | i would of got it... if i didnt remove mine | 01:23 |
| Redimere | lol shit happens | 01:23 |
| Redimere | but that isn't working. Do you know what the package is called? | 01:23 |
| vidd | restricted-manager | 01:23 |
| vidd | what are you trying to do? | 01:24 |
| Redimere | enable my damn graphics card | 01:24 |
| Redimere | hmm | 01:24 |
| Redimere | it didn't like it when I asked for that package. | 01:24 |
| vidd | what it say? | 01:25 |
| Jester45 | !info restricted-manger | 01:25 |
| vidd | Redimere, if you want to LOAD a driver, then sudo modprobe [driver] | 01:25 |

| Redimere | Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have | 01:26 |
| Redimere | requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable | 01:26 |
| Redimere | distribution that some required packages have not yet been created | 01:26 |
| Redimere | or been moved out of Incoming. | 01:26 |
| Redimere | Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that | 01:26 |
| Redimere | the package is simply not installable and a bug report against | 01:26 |
| Redimere | that package should be filed. | 01:26 |
| Redimere | The following information may help to resolve the situation: | 01:26 |
| Redimere | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 01:26 |
| Redimere | openoffice.org-l10n-en-gb: Conflicts: openoffice.org-core (>= 2.0.5) but 2.2.0-1ubuntu3 is to be installed | 01:26 |

| Redimere | now, I'm a newb, but I'm pretty sure Openoffice has NOTHING to do wiht restricted drivers | 01:27 |
| vidd | oh man....your apt-get is fried! | 01:27 |
| Jester45 | hehe it doesnt | 01:27 |
| Redimere | but it can't be lol, I've been using it this whole time and it hasn't given me a hiccup yet | 01:27 |
| vidd | was this an upgrade or clean install? | 01:27 |
| Redimere | it was an upgrade | 01:27 |
| Jester45 | but all the dependacies have to be met for ALL packages before new ones can be installed | 01:27 |
| vidd | it shows | 01:27 |
| Redimere | well, I followed the xubuntu upgrade thinger... | 01:28 |
| vidd | do this: | 01:28 |
| vidd | sudo apt-get install openoffice.org | 01:28 |
| Redimere | works | 01:28 |
| vidd | this will fix that upgrade messing up your apt issue | 01:28 |

| Redimere | duh | 02:35 |
| vidd | it makes you use windows apps | 02:35 |
| Redimere | well | 02:35 |
| Redimere | not apps | 02:35 |
| Redimere | I just wanna play counterstrike man | 02:35 |
| Jester45 | app then | 02:35 |
| Redimere | food for thought though | 02:36 |
| Redimere | my tty's still aren't working | 02:36 |
| vidd | that is strange | 02:36 |
| vidd | you are using the 3 keys.... | 02:36 |
| vidd | crtl | 02:36 |
| vidd | alt | 02:36 |
| Redimere | ctrl alt f8, then ctrl alt f2 | 02:37 |
| vidd | f-1 | 02:37 |
| Redimere | I recognize the image now though | 02:37 |
| Redimere | it's my desktop on f7 | 02:37 |
| vidd | ctlr alt f8 is a x session | 02:37 |
| Redimere | right, but f8, and f1 f2 f3 f4 f5 f6 | 02:38 |
| Redimere | all of them don't work | 02:38 |
| vidd | and you have to jump through hoops to be able to show more then one x session | 02:38 |
| Redimere | which would be dandy | 02:38 |
| Redimere | except tty isn't showing up either. | 02:38 |
| vidd | press ctrl alt f1.... | 02:38 |
| vidd | on the blank screen, hit the enter key | 02:38 |
| vidd | what happens? | 02:38 |
| Redimere | the screen isn't blank | 02:39 |
| vidd | what does it say? | 02:39 |
| Redimere | it's an image of my desktop with screwy resolution and colors | 02:39 |
| Redimere | and completely static | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | it will reboot x | 02:39 |
| Jester45 | you have 2 sessions running | 02:40 |
| vidd | Jester45, f7 is fine.... | 02:40 |
| Jester45 | vidd, but it should kill the F1 also then restart the F7 | 02:40 |
| vidd | ah.... | 02:40 |
| Jester45 | *should* | 02:40 |
| vidd | should he not do that from a terminal in f7 then? | 02:40 |
| Redimere | by the way | 02:40 |
| Redimere | the only thing that booted up before I tried F1 | 02:41 |
| Redimere | was GAIM | 02:41 |
| Redimere | pidgin* | 02:41 |
| vidd | wow | 02:41 |
| Jester45 | it doesnt matter because it will restart gdm | 02:41 |
| Redimere | should I wait | 02:41 |
| vidd | no...do it right away | 02:41 |
| Redimere | a messed up image with hue colorations popped up on my screen | 02:41 |
| Redimere | kinda like the one for F1 | 02:41 |
| Redimere | only without icons or windows | 02:41 |
| Redimere | oop, there it goes I think | 02:42 |
| Redimere | nope, it rebooted | 02:42 |
| vidd | and does the tty's work now? | 02:43 |
| Redimere | Nope. | 02:43 |

| Redimere | What can I do for you | 06:17 |
| gregorygreg | sup | 06:17 |
| Redimere | and it's fixed Pump | 06:17 |
| gregorygreg | um | 06:17 |
| gregorygreg | how can I view current users on this channel? | 06:17 |
| Redimere | should be on the side | 06:17 |

| gregorygreg | hmm | 06:18 |
| Pumpernickel | Redimere: Ah, good. | 06:18 |
| gregorygreg | weird | 06:18 |
| Redimere | I had to use -sf | 06:19 |
| gregorygreg | alright here's my question | 06:19 |
| gregorygreg | where do apps go when I minimize them? | 06:19 |
| gregorygreg | I just alt tab back to them? | 06:19 |
| Redimere | how do you mean? | 06:19 |
| keb | you don't see them on your panel? | 06:20 |
| gregorygreg | alt tab is the only way I can see which applications I have open? | 06:20 |
| gregorygreg | I just installed xfce over ubuntu | 06:20 |
| gregorygreg | there are no panels | 06:20 |
| Redimere | alt tab should work | 06:21 |
| Redimere | you should configure your desktop by right clicking and going to settings | 06:21 |
| gregorygreg | aha | 06:21 |
| gregorygreg | okay | 06:21 |
| Pumpernickel | gregorygreg: Press alt + F2, enter 'xfce4-panel', and hit enter. | 06:21 |

| === Redimer1 is now known as Redimere | ||
| maxamillion | Redimer1: what music player? or does it happen in multiple music players? | 07:28 |
| Redimere | It happens in VLC | 07:28 |
| Redimere | and GxIne just doesn't like me. | 07:28 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: gxine doesn't like anybody | 07:28 |
| Redimere | same problem crops up in xmms | 07:30 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: well first, hit alt+f2 (that will open a run dialog) and type "xfce4-mixer" (without the quotes) and then click the run button ... check the levels in there | 07:30 |
| Redimere | dunno if it'll like that, i'm running E | 07:30 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: enlightenment? | 07:31 |
| Redimere | Yus | 07:31 |
| Redimere | the mixer worked, but there was only headphone jack sense and a center thinger | 07:32 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: then i can't entirely promise i would be able to help you ... but to my knowledge xfce4-mixer will interface with the audio device set as default, so just open a terminal and run the command | 07:32 |
| maxamillion | that's it? | 07:32 |
| Redimere | Yeah, that's all | 07:32 |
| maxamillion | interesting | 07:32 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: try reading up on alsamixer and check your levels in there | 07:33 |
| Redimere | Master is at 74, PCM is at 84 | 07:34 |
| Redimere | and everything else is off | 07:34 |
| maxamillion | hrmmm..... | 07:35 |
| maxamillion | if its just vocal that seems to be the problem it sounds more like you just need an equalizer to be adjusted | 07:35 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: try changing the audio levels in the equalizer in xmms | 07:35 |
| Redimere | been tooling around with that, I can make them echo and make it sound silly | 07:36 |
| Redimere | but I can't get the guitar to quiet down and the voice to raise | 07:36 |
| maxamillion | that's a tad strange ... | 07:36 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i hate to say it, but i'm out of ideas | 07:37 |
| === Redimere smirks | ||
| Redimere | Considering how much works, I think I can suffer with that. | 07:37 |
| maxamillion | okies | 07:37 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: you running e17 or e16? | 07:38 |
| Redimere | e17 | 07:38 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: how's it working for you? ... last time i tried it, it was too unstable for my taste | 07:39 |
| Redimere | well I haven't been pushing limits | 07:39 |
| Redimere | but it's gorgeous and it's been working really well | 07:39 |
| Redimere | looks MUCH better than xfce or gnome could ever hope to | 07:40 |
| maxamillion | yes, its rather pretty ... i can't deny that, but the fact that the enlightenment devs keep rewriting it is getting annoying | 07:40 |
| Redimere | lol | 07:40 |
| maxamillion | they've been developing e17 for 10 years | 07:40 |
| Redimere | and updating e16 the whole time | 07:40 |
| Redimere | but whatever they're doing theyre doing well | 07:40 |
| maxamillion | well i think their biggest fallback is they are too strick on speed ... a decent amount of the code base is inline assembly in the C sources | 07:41 |
| Redimere | except for a segfault at the beginning, I haven't had any issues with it | 07:42 |
| Redimere | hell, my movies play better and CS actually runs | 07:42 |
| Redimere | whether that's E's fault or my own tinkering, I can't tell | 07:42 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: could be a combination of both | 07:42 |
| Redimere | more 'n likely | 07:43 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i dunno, E is kinda the unicorn of open source ... i use xfce on machines with power and fluxbox on machines that don't | 07:43 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: this rig isn't for anything other than entertaining me, even if that means it's constantly broken in some way | 07:44 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: xfce got boring, plus the way they do desktop switching is really handy once you get used ot it | 07:44 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: oh, well i am currently a computer science college student and i'm currently taking a systems programming summer course ... so system downtime means missing homework ... that doesn't work for me | 07:45 |
| Redimere | well that's just it, if E breaks you've got xfce to fall back on | 07:45 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i will be writting my own system shell next week :) | 07:46 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: yeah, i guess that would work ... but i just prefer consistency and i think xfce has a clean professional look | 07:46 |
| Redimere | -smirks- then you haven't seen E | 07:46 |
| Redimere | it's really minimalistic | 07:47 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i have seen E, i saw it 7 years ago, i say it 3 years ago, and i saw it 3 months ago ... its still got a long way to go till stable | 07:48 |
| Redimere | naturally stability is an issue for me, but my computer's named Banshee for a reason | 07:48 |
| Redimere | err | 07:48 |
| Redimere | you* | 07:48 |
| maxamillion | rgr | 07:49 |
| Redimere | a buddy of mine in college took operating systems | 07:49 |
| Redimere | I saw all his code, I cringed. It looks painful' | 07:49 |
| maxamillion | well i also have an on campus systems admin job for the campus library and i talked my boss into letting me run linux, and downtime really isn't an option there ... especially if i'm in the middle of writting some software for work and E decided it addressed an invalid memory location ..... wouldn't be good | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | yes, it can be painful | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | but its alof of fun | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | alot* | 07:50 |
| Redimere | I should hope so, I think Ihave to take it next year | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: take operating systems? | 07:50 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: yessir. | 07:50 |
| maxamillion | i haven't taken that one yet ... i'm taking systems right now, i have to write a system shell, a replacement for malloc(), and a proxy server | 07:51 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: I don't think I have to do that. Or if I did i'd wind up having to do it in assembly, which I plan on avoiding | 07:52 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: oh, i took 2 semesters of assembly ... that wasn't a whole lot of fun, but it paid off when i took compilers | 07:52 |
| maxamillion | i wrote a compiler in python ... as ironic as that is | 07:53 |
| === Redimere slaps his forehead. | ||
| maxamillion | but we got to chose what language we wrote it in and python was easier than writting the whole thing in C | 07:53 |
| Redimere | probably true enough | 07:53 |
| maxamillion | but we weren't allowed to use alot of built in functions | 07:54 |
| Redimere | yikes | 07:54 |
| Redimere | I had to write a banksim with a discrete queue once, that sucked. | 07:54 |
| maxamillion | so essentially i just got some syntax padding and not having to manage memory for myself | 07:54 |
| maxamillion | which was nice | 07:54 |
| Redimere | yar | 07:54 |
| maxamillion | oh, i teach a class that does that | 07:54 |
| maxamillion | i'm a TA also | 07:54 |
| maxamillion | and i teach 2 different courses .... 4 classes total | 07:55 |
| === maxamillion doesn't sleep much | ||
| Redimere | who sleeps these days | 07:55 |
| Redimere | the annoying thing was the teacher was a dink about it. I got it done without a discrete queue, but he wouldn't accept it | 07:55 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i wouldn't either to be honest ... things like bank sims are simple, the point of the assignment is for the student to understand the concept | 07:56 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: I did understand the concept, I couldn't get the queue to function correctly so I wrote it with a plain queue. | 07:56 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: well from an instructors stand point, we need to see it in functioning code before we know | 07:57 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: but i know what you mean ... i've chased bugs in code for days that simulated concepts that i _knew_ and knew well | 07:57 |
| === Redimere smirks. | ||
| Redimere | maxamillion: I had him stumped for awhile with a fun error on the first project in java | 07:58 |

| Redimere | maxamillion: you say something? | 07:59 |
| maxamillion | java ... java is a good language, nice and safe and has alot of nice features but does seem to throw odd error messages sometimes | 07:59 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i did now :) | 07:59 |
| Redimere | java's nice, it's safe, and it's tough to break legitimately | 07:59 |
| Redimere | bugs the hell out of me sometimes. | 08:00 |
| Redimere | unfortunately the only language I have to compare it to is php, and they're not even a little bit the same | 08:00 |
| maxamillion | yeah, and it the JVM actually performs floating point checking so some of the issues with IEEE floating point representation isn't an issue in java | 08:00 |
| Redimere | yeah, but adding 2.0 + 2.0 still is an issue | 08:01 |
| maxamillion | nope | 08:01 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: how so? | 08:01 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: if you use a double in addition, you have to round it or it won't be precise | 08:01 |
| Redimere | it'll be very, very close, but not exact | 08:01 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i don't think that's correct | 08:04 |
| Redimere | maybe not, but I had to lean caching early because of it | 08:04 |
| maxamillion | caching? ... how does caching have anything to do with a floating point 2.0+2.0? | 08:04 |
| Redimere | caching or casting | 08:05 |

| Redimere | http://www.cafeaulait.org/course/week2/12.html | 08:07 |
| maxamillion | Chikubu: there are a few things you might need to try | 08:09 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: yes, but that has nothing to do with adding 2.0 + 2.0 ... that example exercises one of the floating point issues still not checked by java | 08:09 |
| Redimere | that's what I meant | 08:10 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: what university do you go to? | 08:10 |

| Redimere | i'm really tempted to put linux on my mother's computer and skin it like XP and see if she notices. | 08:14 |

| maxamillion | mine was almost 8 years ago ... it was redhat | 08:16 |
| maxamillion | Chikubu: yes, sorry ... just a moment | 08:16 |
| maxamillion | Chikubu: i think there is a link that should walk you through it, i just need to check | 08:16 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: i haven't allowed any microsoft product to touch a machine i own since then ... its been a long wonderful journey | 08:18 |
| Chikubu | blkid lists a diffrent uuid than ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid | 08:18 |
| Chikubu | which i would think is a problem | 08:18 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: I'dve switched over a long time ago if gaming wasn't so important. Buuut my addiction to WoW forced this on me. | 08:18 |
| maxamillion | Chikubu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq | 08:18 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: ah, i never really gamed ... so i never worried about it, i didn't have time to game ... my mom made me study alot and get a job | 08:19 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: my mom tried that too. Then her computer stopped turning on | 08:19 |
| maxamillion | Chikubu: there is a section there about "adding more swap" .. just use that to actually add swap | 08:20 |
| maxamillion | Redimere: LOL ... well my mom was hard core, she would take the mouse, the keyboard and the power cord anytime i was in trouble and she didn't care about the computer so it didn't bother her that it wasn't functioning | 08:20 |
| Redimere | maxamillion: I always had backups around | 08:20 |
| maxamillion | anyhoo... i have to run, i have work in the morning | 08:21 |
| maxamillion | night all | 08:21 |
| Redimere | later | 08:21 |
| Chikubu | i think its a uuid problem because ive been trackig it due to another error an kinit: no resume image problem, and kini: name_to_dev_+(/dev/dis/by-uuid/...problem and a dead gui logon problem | 08:21 |
| Chikubu | all tied together in a sinster web of bugs | 08:21 |
| Redimere | it's out to get you | 08:21 |
| Redimere | give me a month and i'll probably break that, then i'll tell you how to fix it | 08:23 |
| Chikubu | why would blkid list one uuid and ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid another uuid? | 08:23 |
| Redimere | your swap drive is leading a double life? | 08:23 |
| Chikubu | where is the config file with the wrong data ugg | 08:23 |
| Chikubu | appears so | 08:24 |
| Chikubu | after last upgrade all heck broke loose been days tracking the problem | 08:24 |
| Redimere | have you tried just knocking your computer on it's ass and reinstalling xubuntu-desktop? | 08:25 |
| Chikubu | not yet | 08:26 |
| Chikubu | maybe ill just merge the partitions and use a swap file | 08:27 |
| Redimere | why bother with a swap period? | 08:28 |
| Redimere | if I recall a swap is just linux virtual memory, if you have enough ram you don't really need a swap | 08:29 |
| Chikubu | low end system | 08:30 |
| Redimere | try merging the partitions then just remaking the swap | 08:30 |
| Chikubu | it barely works with out the swap | 08:30 |

| TheSheep | bart_17: unzip or zip | 09:29 |
| bart_17 | unzip | 09:29 |
| TheSheep | bart_17: I think that zip can also unpack under linux | 09:29 |
| bart_17 | thesheep: i made this batch file script: | 09:31 |

| damike | hi | 10:25 |
| damike | is there a gedit for xubuntu? ;) | 10:25 |
| TheSheep | mousepad | 10:26 |
| TheSheep | geany is little more advanced | 10:26 |
| damike | TheSheep, mousepad has highlighting? ;) | 10:26 |
| TheSheep | damike: no | 10:26 |
| TheSheep | damike: if you want exact copy of gedit, use gedit | 10:26 |
| damike | geany looks cool - thx | 10:26 |
| damike | TheSheep, a maybe stupid question - if you are using xubuntu long time - is there lots of data waste (old packages) on the system or is xubuntu quite "clean"? | 10:29 |
| TheSheep | damike: the unneeded packages can be automatically removed | 10:30 |
| TheSheep | damike: so it's pretty clean | 10:30 |
| damike | TheSheep, ok :) | 10:30 |
| TheSheep | damike: the system remembers which packages were installed by you manually, and which ones were installed as dependencies, and can remove the latter when they are no longer needed | 10:31 |
| damike | TheSheep, also dependencies? | 10:31 |
| TheSheep | damike: yes | 10:32 |
| TheSheep | damike: recursively | 10:32 |
| damike | TheSheep, cool | 10:32 |
| TheSheep | it has sometimes unwated effects, when you install whole bundles of programs and then wnat to remove only single ones from the bundle | 10:33 |
| TheSheep | but generally works acceptably well | 10:33 |
| damike | hmm. apt-get also works - g++ installation was quite simple ;) | 10:37 |

| Natureshadow | hello | 10:54 |
| Natureshadow | I've got a problem with X.org. | 10:55 |
| Natureshadow | Last week, I booted my machine and suddenly had only 800x600 pixels | 10:55 |
| Natureshadow | I removed any other mode than 1024x768 from the config, but still it wouldn't do | 10:55 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: did you change something? | 10:56 |
| Natureshadow | Now, after one more week, the resolution is OK again - but with miniature fonts! | 10:56 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: in bios, for example? | 10:56 |

| Natureshadow | TheSheep: nope, really nothing | 10:56 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: Everything I did on this machine for months is using Firefox and Gaim! | 10:56 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: that fonts issue is known, there is a fix | 10:56 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: let me find it | 10:56 |
| TheSheep | http://xubuntulinux.blogspot.com/2006/07/ubuntu-set-correct-dpi-for-x-server.html | 10:57 |
| TheSheep | or | 10:57 |
| TheSheep | http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/09/howto-fix-xfce-fonts/ | 10:57 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: Well, on Windows I would consider "self-configuration" like this normal, or done by a virus - but not on Linux :) | 10:57 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: the problem is that linux tries to get the physical screen dimensions from your hardware, to make the fonts consistent, but it fails miserably with some hardware | 10:58 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: ok, but why didn't that happen right from the beginning? | 10:59 |
| === bart_17 [n=youandme@124.106.190.40] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: my guess is that the resolution problems and the font problems are related to a driver upgrade | 11:00 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: but I can only guess | 11:00 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: So Ubuntu does this automatically? | 11:00 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: no, you have to run the upgrade manager | 11:00 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: I thought so, However, I didn't :) | 11:01 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: Never mind, I will try the fix you sent me | 11:01 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: the second one seems to fix it in more than one place :) | 11:01 |
| TheSheep | just to make sure | 11:01 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: thx, will come back later and report | 11:02 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: umm .. I think I have changed the charset from latin1 to UTF-8 some time last week - could that be the reason? | 11:03 |
| TheSheep | Natureshadow: I don't think so | 11:04 |
| TheSheep | but really I can only do guessing here | 11:04 |
| Natureshadow | TheSheep: OK. Cya later | 11:06 |

| Colossus73 | no does use NFS? | 12:25 |
| pwnguin | nah I don't bother with it | 12:32 |

| gerro | Colossus73: a similar question to that of yours is how do I remove the floppy icon from desktop? | 12:33 |

| Colossus73 | gerro: do you have the sfs icon on the desktop though? | 12:45 |
| Colossus73 | sorry scp | 12:45 |
| gerro | nope that's all command line | 12:46 |
| gerro | basically what you want is an on/off switch right? | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | yes | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | just as it happens when I put a cd in the DVD reader | 12:47 |
| gerro | setup a .sh script to check if its on/off and do the opposite when clicked maybe output a message what it did | 12:47 |
| gerro | chmod +x the script | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | its icon appears on the desktop | 12:47 |
| gerro | and create a launcher | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | it is a solution but it's not the same as having the icon | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | handled by HAL | 12:47 |
| Colossus73 | is it HAL which handles this right? | 12:48 |
| gerro | no clue | 12:48 |
| Colossus73 | :( | 12:48 |
| gerro | I love that icon thing though | 12:48 |

| echosystm | if i did an alt install of ubuntu with xfce rather than gnome | 01:46 |
| echosystm | there would be no difference between the xubuntu dist + ubuntu right? | 01:46 |
| echosystm | i know with fluxbuntu theyve got all kinds of changes in the actual distribution that means its not the same as just putting fluxbox on ubuntu | 01:47 |
| echosystm | same goes for xubuntu or not? | 01:47 |
| gerro | its xubuntu-desktop not xfce package | 01:48 |
| gerro | that the problem with fluxbuntu they don't have a package like that out yet | 01:48 |

| TheSheep | gabii: it should be descibed there :/ | 02:41 |
| echosystm | xfce uses gtk, right? | 02:41 |
| TheSheep | gabii: the links at the bottom should even have a step-by-step instructions | 02:42 |
| echosystm | so it's esentually just a stripped down version of gnome? | 02:42 |
| gabii | yeah but it has too many options.. which one is the right one? | 02:42 |
| TheSheep | echosystm: not really, some applications are stripped versions of those from gnome, but the xfce itself is an independedt project that was around for quite a long time and has its own ways of dealing with things | 02:43 |
| TheSheep | gabii: no idea | 02:43 |
| echosystm | but it is still based on gtk | 02:43 |
| echosystm | so theyre both somewhat the same no? | 02:43 |
| TheSheep | gabii: there used to be a bot here that gave you direct links, but it's broken at the moment | 02:43 |
| echosystm | i mean, its not like im going to open up a gnome program in xfce and expect bogus behaviour or anything right? | 02:44 |
| echosystm | or is that a possibility? | 02:44 |
| TheSheep | echosystm: no, gnome and kde programs should work just fine | 02:45 |

| W8TAH | morning folks: i have xubuntu fiesty running on my laptop -- i had a program (kvirc) installed that uses sounds, and i then installed arts -- do i need to re-install kvirc (as i would in gentoo) or will it be happy now? | 05:32 |
| maxamillion | W8TAH: i'm not familiar with the program, but what are you referring to when you say you "installed arts"? | 05:34 |
| W8TAH | maxamillion, good morning -- KVIRC is a KDE Based IRC client -- ARTS is the kde sound daemon - ive had good luck with it as opposed to esd etc | 05:34 |
| maxamillion | W8TAH: ah, ok ... they are KDE apps, that greatly explains why i am not familiar .... but kvirc should in theory be fine without having to reinstall, but if it doesn't appear to function then i would say just run a re-install and you should be fine (but thankfully re-installs are much faster in xubuntu then in gentoo) | 05:36 |

| maxamillion | sx66: no, but it will make the LCD inactive and then the LCD will suspend per spec of the firmware for an inactivity timeout (normally 10 minutes or so) | 10:25 |

| servaas-xubuntu- | you can look at the advanced tab inde screensaver settings | 10:27 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | inde = in the | 10:27 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | kabads: can you give US (im no geek :-) )some specs of your machine | 10:29 |

| maxamillion | sx66: oh, that i don't really know off the top of my head ... i only use my laptop when i need to be on it and shutdown when i'm done | 10:30 |
| kabads | servaas-xubuntu-: I've run gparted with an xconfig and it seems to have booted into graphical mode | 10:30 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | sx66: look in the advanced tab from the screensaver settings | 10:31 |
| sx66 | servaas-xubuntu-: I have set that to one (1) minute nothing happens in one (1) minute | 10:31 |
| sx66 | let me restart xconf | 10:31 |

| _pez_ | hello | 10:36 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: hi | 10:36 |
| _pez_ | could somebody please help me with installing xubuntu | 10:37 |
| hyper_ch | _pez_: well, maybe you can tell what is not working... | 10:37 |
| _pez_ | livecd boots, mouse not working, howto install? | 10:37 |
| _pez_ | and howto fix mouse | 10:38 |
| hyper_ch | well, if the live cd doesn't boot then you can try the alternate one but with that one you will directly install it | 10:38 |
| hyper_ch | _pez_: what error do you actually get? maybe you need to boot with acpi off | 10:38 |
| _pez_ | I've got a sis chipset and I've read that this is a general bug with the new kernel | 10:38 |
| _pez_ | no error, just my mouse pointer does not move, tried with 2 mouse (ps2) | 10:39 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: was it possible for you to continue installation with only the keyboard ? | 10:40 |
| hyper_ch | no clue, sorry | 10:40 |
| _pez_ | I can switch terminals, but I've got no idea howto install | 10:41 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: so you installed xubuntu without a mouse ? | 10:42 |
| TheSheep | _pez_: if you press alt+shift+numlock, you should be able to control the mouse pointer with the number pad | 10:42 |
| _pez_ | I mean there is an install icon on the desktop, but I couldn't activate it, and I have no clue what to type in txt mode | 10:42 |
| _pez_ | tx I'll try | 10:42 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: use tab | 10:42 |
| _pez_ | tab didn't seem to work | 10:43 |
| _pez_ | is there a way to install it without booting into a livecd system? | 10:44 |
| TheSheep | _pez_: alternate cd | 10:45 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: you cannot select an icon on the desktop with tab key , left/right/up/down key and enter key ? | 10:45 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | that should work isnt it ? | 10:45 |
| _pez_ | I tried to select with kb, but no success | 10:45 |

| servaas-xubuntu- | _pez_: so you can select the icon install to harddisk ? | 10:50 |
| _pez_ | servaas-xubuntu-: yes | 10:52 |

| sx66 | servaas-xubuntu-: I have enabled the screen saver and it 'blank screens' at one minute, I need the LCD off at one min. | 10:55 |

| servaas-xubuntu- | sx66: i know what you want you need acpi to let it work if your hardware supports it ... | 10:56 |

| Jester45 | hows those computers coming | 12:17 |
| cellofellow | There are sixteen and I've cataloged three of them in my OOo database. | 12:17 |
| Jester45 | servaas-xubuntu-, well i found a old 4gb hard drive and figure... why not try other OS and see what they got. so i tried gentoo and the drive was to slow | 12:18 |
| Jester45 | dsl worked but i would rather have it as a cd. win98 had a memory alllocation error | 12:18 |
| Jester45 | vista said the drive was to small (plus it would of been to slow) | 12:19 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | so you think it is the hdd not the system but the strange thing is the difference in boot time that is an open question | 12:19 |
| cellofellow | Is there some command to see what program(s) are accessing the network? I'm downloading a lot of something, but what I don't know. | 12:20 |
| Jester45 | servaas-xubuntu-, yea i was thinking the problem is the old drive because i never tried debain on my good drive. so the only diffrence was the harddrive and the OS | 12:20 |
| servaas-xubuntu- | but then the boot time is not compareble because of the different hard drives | 12:22 |
| cellofellow | oh, you know what? I bet it's update-manager | 12:22 |
