| retour | I was using KMail before on Mandriva. Is it a way Pine can import my old mails from it etc? | 02:10 |

| dmdzine | :) | 02:12 |
| dmdzine | or... XUBUNTU. Faster than Blazing Lightning. | 02:13 |
| retour | I have xubuntu already - HUGHE difference from Mandriva on KDE. Most important is that I couldnt play my game under Mandriva/KDE, Ubuntu was also so so but xubuntu saved me another year at least before I have to buy new hardware | 02:14 |

| solowlr | greetings all | 02:16 |
| dmdzine | I do have a very old computer running it though... | 02:16 |
| solowlr | how do I add an application to the top panel in xubuntu? | 02:16 |

| dmdzine | 2001 DELL XPS B... 933MHZ Pentium III, 128 mb RAM, 32mb NVIDIA graphics... | 02:17 |
| retour | Now I have to install e-mail client. And I dont care to be speedy opening mails. I just want to be sure whatever client it will be it dependent libraries I have install wont kill my 3D performance or system speed as general | 02:17 |
| dmdzine | Maybe thunderbird? | 02:17 |
| dmdzine | very cool, very nice program...luv it | 02:18 |
| retour | Well if I wont pay with system performance I would install KMail. PIII 500MHz (OC'ed to 560MHz) + 389MB RAM + Nvidia Geforce 4. Enemy Territory + quite demanding mod to it True Combat Elite run pretty well | 02:20 |
| dmdzine | um...try Mozilla Thunderbird... seems to run well on just about anything...fast, effective, nice | 02:21 |
| Drew3b | The lightest-fastest mail client is possibly Claws or Sypheed, I switched to Thunderbird for simplicity; not sure CLaws or Sypheed ate in .deb. | 02:23 |
| dmdzine | yep...thunderbird...easy, fast, effective, nice...O:-) | 02:24 |
| retour | Oh Yeah! remember Sylpheed - default client for Damn Small Linux - lightning fast distro but somewhat servicing oriented. But runs well on my P200MMX with 64MB RAM | 02:26 |
| solowlr | I'd like to create a shortcut to Terminal on the desktop, any ideas? | 02:28 |
| dmdzine | solowlr, try dragging? | 02:28 |
| dmdzine | or right click desktop and create a launcher pointing to Terminal | 02:29 |
| solowlr | dragging doesn't work from the applications menu, and right click just runs the program | 02:30 |
| retour | OK time to go and experiment. But if I tell SYnaptic to remove package completely it will be weeded out with all the dependent packages? | 02:30 |

| Drew3b | I give up, where can system fonts be adjusted(bigger)? Window headers are done, not yet, the application menu or similiar fonts | 05:52 |
| vidd | ? | 05:52 |
| Drew3b | The top of each window fonts, are made larger in window setting dialog/control panel. I need the rest of the system/giu fonts larger. | 05:54 |
| vidd | oh...why not just go to a smaller resolution? | 05:55 |
| Drew3b | That is one solution. but that makes the screen effectively a lot smaller. | 05:57 |
| vidd | do you REALLYneed all that real estate? | 05:59 |
| Drew3b | Yes, either that of add a 5th monitor :-) | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | yes i bet he does | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | vidd, you just used to 15" screen :) | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | Drew3b, have you logged out or rebooted after the chagne | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | you have to get the fonts to change | 06:01 |
| Drew3b | logged out yes, rebooted no. | 06:01 |
| vidd | so are you saying im spoiled? or sheltered? | 06:01 |
| Jester45 | well you can try reboot or maybe just a gdm restart | 06:01 |
| Jester45 | opposite of spoiled | 06:02 |
| Jester45 | Drew3b, try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart it will log you out instantly | 06:02 |
| Drew3b | ok ty, | 06:03 |
| Jester45 | its allmost the same as a reboot | 06:03 |

| xubuntunoob | my friend burned a copy of xubuntu cd for me, but when i tried to run it live, i din't get a task bar accross the top with the 'applications', firefox icon, etc... that i see on the screenshots page at xubuntu website; does that mean that there might be errors on the disk, or am i missing some step to get going? anyone ever have this prob? | 06:27 |
| vidd | yeah....its a know issue | 06:29 |
| Drew3b | Is it an issue on the 6.10 cd's? or just 7.04? | 06:29 |
| vidd | is your live cd running, or did you already install? | 06:29 |
| vidd | Drew3b, dunno...i never use the live cd | 06:30 |
| vidd | its WAYto buggy to be a "first choice" at least in my opinion | 06:31 |
| === Jester45 uses the live cd as a rescue cd (like lots of people) | ||
| xubuntunoob | so, ezackly what are you saying... what's the other options for 'first choice'? | 06:31 |
| Jester45 | xubuntunoob, the alt cd | 06:32 |
| vidd | the "alt" cd... | 06:32 |
| Drew3b | It was the same for me, in 7.04, but it installed. | 06:32 |
| Jester45 | http://vidd.us/downloads/xubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso | 06:32 |
| vidd | personally ... ithink the "live" should be labled "rescue" and the "alt" listed as installer" | 06:33 |
| xubuntunoob | i don't get it; where's the alt cd, i thought we downloaded the latest stable version? | 06:33 |
| Jester45 | alt X86 cd | 06:33 |
| xubuntunoob | so the alt cd you load just like the live cd? | 06:33 |
| === [tokin] [n=ryan@dynamic-acs-24-144-225-167.zoominternet.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| vidd | you got the latest stable LIVE cd | 06:33 |
| Jester45 | xubuntunoob, the "desktop" cd is the live cd the alt doesnt boot an entire DE | 06:33 |
| vidd | the alt cd was about 1/2 a page lower | 06:33 |
| Jester45 | if you can call it stable :) | 06:34 |
| === vidd will never use it | ||
| === vidd dl the live a week or so ago to fix a server issue.... | ||
| xubuntunoob | well, what is it that you like about it if it's not stable? teach me the ways... | 06:35 |
| Jester45 | if you can call it stable :) | 06:35 |
| vidd | the alt cd? it IS stable.... | 06:35 |
| vidd | that installer has been used....what? 4 years now? | 06:36 |
| Jester45 | xubuntunoob, some of us mess our systems up to where they dont boot right... so we keep a live cd so we can access the files on the harddrive to beable to fix it | 06:36 |
| xubuntunoob | i have an older dell that i need a lite system on to send to some po folks in central america | 06:36 |
| vidd | live cd is MAYBE 2? | 06:36 |
| vidd | get the alt cd...follow the instructions on the screen...dont be afraid of the "no mouse needed" installer | 06:37 |
| Jester45 | vidd, it was -2 months from the release of feisty... but the alt cd is based from debain so thats a added 10 years | 06:37 |
| Jester45 | yep just tab to select things and enter to ... enter them | 06:37 |
| vidd | they had the live cd for breezy | 06:38 |
| === Warp4 [n=robert@65.126.146.17] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| vidd | i remember...they even shipit'd you a live and an alt then | 06:39 |
| xubuntunoob | ok ... how heavy is it? could i go to 24 hour walmart and get a usb stick to load it to to transfer it to the other laptop? | 06:39 |
| Drew3b | ~/.config/xfce4 <---where would I look for that? | 06:39 |
| Jester45 | o well its 2+ years | 06:39 |
| Jester45 | xubuntunoob, its same size as live, but you can get the mini iso its only 9mb | 06:39 |
| vidd | xubuntunoob, IF YOU WANT TINY DOWNLOAD, AND HAVE A GOOD INTERNET CONECTION...GET THE ALT CD | 06:40 |
| Jester45 | vidd, did you mean the mini? | 06:40 |
| vidd | *mini* | 06:40 |
| Warp4 | Drew3b, ~ means that the you would look for that in your home directory | 06:40 |
| Jester45 | as the alt is about the same | 06:40 |
| vidd | i have that on my site too... | 06:41 |
| vidd | Jester45, post the link | 06:41 |
| Jester45 | Drew3b, ~/ is home for that user so ~/.xfce would be /home/user/.xfce | 06:41 |
| Jester45 | http://vidd.us/downloads/mini.iso | 06:41 |
| xubuntunoob | but i don't have a burner, so that's why i was axing about usb stick ... but i have a couple of lite 128mb sticks here, they would be large enough to start the install and get it up and running? | 06:41 |
| vidd | XD | 06:41 |
| vidd | might just as well use the live...since you have it | 06:42 |
| xubuntunoob | vidd: but the live isn't rendering a complete desktop to me | 06:43 |
| vidd | just click the install, follow the prompts...and when its done, come back to get your desktop to work right | 06:43 |
| vidd | its a know issue, and we can walk you thru the cure | 06:43 |
| Warp4_work | xubuntunoob, "isnt rendering a complete desktop"? | 06:43 |
| vidd | no panel | 06:43 |
| Jester45 | Warp4_work, no top panel, maybe none at all | 06:44 |
| xubuntunoob | ok, of course with cheapos like me (po folks) it's more complicated | 06:44 |
| vidd | xubuntunoob, dont worry....you dont need it for the install | 06:44 |
| Warp4_work | Jester45, ah, ok | 06:44 |
| Warp4_work | Jester45, ah ok, that's odd | 06:44 |
| vidd | and it is a rather easy fix once the install is complete | 06:45 |
| Jester45 | Warp4_work, its a bug | 06:45 |
| Warp4_work | which brings me to ask, anyone else using Xubuntu under VMware like I am currently? | 06:45 |
| vidd | Warp4_work, odd???? it a KNOWNissue! | 06:45 |
| Jester45 | vidd, all you have to do is add the panels? | 06:45 |
| vidd | yep | 06:45 |
| === Jester45 has under virtualbox | ||
| Warp4_work | Jester45, ah, ok. | 06:45 |
| Warp4_work | Jester45, haven't tried it under that yet. Any problems?? | 06:46 |
| Warp4_work | vidd, hrmm, guess I didn't know that, but do now. | 06:46 |
| Jester45 | nope | 06:46 |
| Warp4_work | Jester45, ah, ok. Will have to try that when i get home then. | 06:46 |
| xubuntunoob | i'm on my regular desktop now, which is where i tried out the live cd, but i couldn't try it on the other older dell laptop, because it's not recognizing it's cd drive ...arrrrrggggghhhhh, hence, me wondering how to join the two? would the cd drive in my latitude 600 fit interchangeablely into the other older laptop? | 06:46 |
| vidd | Jester45 used the alt install or the mini...so of COUSE there are no issues | 06:47 |
| vidd | xubuntunoob, dunno.... | 06:47 |
| Warp4_work | vidd, I used the regular CD to install the OS under VMWare 6. That's why I asked. | 06:47 |
| vidd | you probably just need to tweek the bios to set the boot order to boot from cd first | 06:48 |
| Warp4_work | anyway, back to work for me. so much code to write, so little time! :) | 06:48 |
| vidd | Warp4_work, define regular | 06:48 |
| Warp4_work | vidd, the live cd | 06:48 |
| vidd | sorry to hear that | 06:48 |
| Warp4_work | as in no the mini or alt | 06:48 |
| vidd | =] | 06:48 |
| Warp4_work | heh | 06:48 |
| xubuntunoob | vidd: nope, bios is froze up on it | 06:48 |
| xubuntunoob | got to get it right to the hd i think | 06:49 |
| vidd | ??? | 06:49 |
| vidd | froze up??? as in password protected? | 06:49 |
| xubuntunoob | vidd: no, it just won't scroll thru like its sposed to to get to boot devices | 06:50 |
| xubuntunoob | everything is a mission | 06:50 |
| xubuntunoob | lol | 06:50 |
| vidd | then point your browser to the bios update and flash it | 06:50 |
| xubuntunoob | ok, but i don't know how to do that either | 06:51 |
| vidd | let it be the last ting M$ does on the system! | 06:51 |
| xubuntunoob | god i hate ms | 06:51 |
| vidd | who made the laptop? | 06:51 |
| xubuntunoob | the older one is also a dell CPi it says | 06:52 |
| xubuntunoob | the one i'm on lat 600 | 06:52 |
| vidd | so go to dell's website and search thier support for your model | 06:53 |
| vidd | for the old one...ONthe old one.... | 06:53 |
| xubuntunoob | and that's where i find the bios flash? | 06:53 |
| vidd | yes | 06:53 |
| vidd | and you run it from M$ | 06:53 |
| xubuntunoob | is that just a simple download process? | 06:54 |
| vidd | download then execute | 06:54 |
| vidd | (dont forget to vross your fingers and pray) | 06:54 |
| vidd | *cross* | 06:55 |
| xubuntunoob | could i download to a flash usb on this machine and then put it on the other one? | 06:55 |
| vidd | its not required...but it wont hurt | 06:55 |
| vidd | you should be able to | 06:55 |
| xubuntunoob | hmmmmmm.... | 06:55 |
| xubuntunoob | doesn't need a lot of space on the drive? | 06:56 |
| vidd | its just easier if you do it from the old laptop so you can use the "detect my hardware" | 06:56 |
| vidd | no...they are usually less then 1MB | 06:56 |
| xubuntunoob | i know, but another complication. i am connected from my modem to this comp by ethernet, but the older one doesn't have ethernet connnector | 06:57 |
| xubuntunoob | yes, everything is a miision | 06:57 |
| xubuntunoob | mission | 06:58 |
| xubuntunoob | ok, thanks guys; i go away now and try some of these errands you have sent me on | 06:59 |

| === eagle_101 [n=eagle@wikimedia/Eagle-101] has joined #xubuntu | ||

| odat | why doesn't the radio in banshee work? | 01:45 |
| Pumpernickel | magic_ninja: Wine can present a full desktop, which should let you do the drag'n'drop thing. | 01:45 |
| Pumpernickel | odat: It could be many things. The streaming server might be down. You could be missing a library. There could be a bug. | 01:46 |
| Pumpernickel | An error message of some kind would help. | 01:46 |
| magic_ninja | Pumpernickel: the only problem with that is that when I run the program nothing happens, its supposed to run in a cmd.exe prompt for winxp, and when i run it in terminal the program works correctly but i can't drag n drop it unless wine has some kind of ms-dos prompt | 01:53 |

| TheSheep | magic_ninja: affirmative | 04:26 |
| magic_ninja | TheSheep: what was my question lol | 04:26 |
| TheSheep | 15:55 < magic_ninja> is having 4 or 5 getty processes running normal? | 04:26 |
| magic_ninja | ohh ok | 04:27 |
| TheSheep | you have one for every virtual console | 04:27 |
| magic_ninja | man, i dont have a windows box, and i need a copy of cmd.exe lol, i got the cd but not the box | 04:27 |
| magic_ninja | what about ssh-agent, thats for your logins and such right | 04:27 |
| TheSheep | magic_ninja: no, ssh-agent is for handling ssh connections, the remote ones | 04:28 |
| TheSheep | for authenticating with keys automatically and such | 04:28 |
| magic_ninja | so i might have a compromised box | 04:28 |
| TheSheep | why? | 04:28 |
| TheSheep | ssh agent is started automatically in *ubuntu, afair | 04:29 |

| magic_ninja | well i don't want an ssh-agent running if it leaves my box open to connections | 04:30 |

| tech404 | anyone feel that ubuntu server would be a good alternative to debian stable for servers? | 05:05 |
| pleia2 | sure, you'd probably want to go with the LTS version of ubuntu server though, so you don't have to upgrade every 6 months | 05:06 |
| tech404 | let me clarify that I already have the debian servers up in running but after using ubuntu on my desktop for sometime I am getting kind of attached. Do you think that there are major benifits worth moving everything over? | 05:09 |
| === Jester45 [n=ryan@72-161-146-2.dyn.centurytel.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| pleia2 | tech404: it really depends on what you need, if there are packages in ubuntu that aren't on debian and you want them, or the stuff in ubuntu is newer it might be worth it | 05:10 |
| === pleia2 still runs debian on her servers | ||
| pleia2 | if I was installing a new server I'd consider ubuntu, but for me it's not worth doing a migration because the stuff in debian is fine for me | 05:11 |
| tech404 | ok.. that was kinda what I was thinkning. The only thing I use on my server I cant apt is MyAdmin and it installs just fine | 05:12 |

| Jester45 | im running ubuntu on 3 headless servers | 05:13 |
| Jester45 | havent had a problem yet | 05:13 |
| TheSheep | tech404: it's generally not advised to meddle with servers too mych, except for security updates | 05:14 |
| TheSheep | too much* | 05:14 |
| TheSheep | and ubuntu is about as stable as debian unstable -- maybe a little more, because of all the testing | 05:14 |
| tech404 | well there not critical... a gateway and a lamp server at home... not a big deal, I just was thinking about experimenting | 05:14 |
| tech404 | TheSheep: thanx I thought server might be more stable | 05:15 |
| pleia2 | TheSheep: I'd probably say s/unstable/testing | 05:15 |
| Jester45 | tech404, same packages | 05:16 |
| tech404 | are they the same packages as in desktop? | 05:16 |
| TheSheep | tech404: it's called 'server' because it doesn't have all the packages that desktops have -- but it's the same distribution | 05:16 |
| tech404 | i see just less preinstalled? | 05:16 |
| Jester45 | meaning a desktop's apt-get is the same as a servers | 05:16 |
| pleia2 | tech404: right | 05:16 |
| tech404 | and a diff installer | 05:16 |
| Jester45 | yes | 05:16 |
| tech404 | thanks for the help | 05:16 |
| TheSheep | tech404: you can for example install the server and then add the xubuntu-desktop package with all dependencies, and you will have a regular xubuntu | 05:16 |
| Jester45 | well lots of people use the same type of installer for desktop also | 05:17 |

| tech404 | XFCE has alot of KDE libraries right? | 05:18 |
| Jester45 | i use it because im faster with it | 05:18 |
| Jester45 | no it has some gnome libs i dont think any KDE ones | 05:18 |
| Jester45 | and even less if its a server install (i think) because a lot of fui tools on xubuntu have gnome libs | 05:20 |

| lozzy | I am trying to set up wireless on a laptop with the Xubuntu livecd. I have no experience of this whatsoever. I have obtained a wireless 'BSSID' from my router's webmin, and possibly? a network password from underneath my router labelled 'wireless key'. This gives me no joy however. The wireless card is a BT Voyager 1020. | 10:34 |

| BFTD | one card used prism and the other used ndiswrapper | 11:39 |
| BFTD | niether work now | 11:40 |
| maxamillion | pili: download manager for firefox?.... i don't follow | 11:43 |
| maxamillion | BFTD: that's no good | 11:43 |
| pili | <maxamillion> like kget | 11:43 |
| pili | but more ligthweight | 11:44 |
| === kahrn [n=kahrn@5ac4a001.bb.sky.com] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| pili | I found WxDownloadFast | 11:44 |
| pili | but crashes all the time | 11:44 |
| maxamillion | pili: i've never heard of either of those .... | 11:44 |
| maxamillion | pili: wget comes by default ... its a command line tool, i imagine kget is just a frontend for it | 11:45 |
| maxamillion | !info wget | 11:45 |
| ubotu | wget: retrieves files from the web. In component main, is standard. Version 1.10.2-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 229 kB, installed size 1960 kB | 11:45 |
| pili | yeah, i know, but I need something easy and with a gui | 11:45 |
| pili | wich one uses to be the default download manager for ubuntu? | 11:46 |
| maxamillion | it is easy ... 'wget http://www.wherever.com/path/to/file' | 11:46 |
| pili | in gnome? | 11:46 |
| maxamillion | i don't know if gnome has a download manager | 11:46 |
| maxamillion | pili: what's wrong with just downloading with firefox? | 11:46 |
| pili | mm kde has kget | 11:46 |
| maxamillion | it has a built in download manager | 11:46 |
| pili | you can not stop and continue downloads | 11:47 |
| maxamillion | ok, well i am getting off work ... gotta go | 11:47 |
| maxamillion | pili: you can on my machine in firefox | 11:47 |
