[12:26] <zyth> Does anyone know why xubuntu doesnt let me find and connect to a WPA network like Ubuntu does, and how I can rectify this?
[12:29] <cellofellow> !wpa
[12:29] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:29] <Troubled-Jay> you have install WPA support, omething like WPA supplicant. i think wifi-radar or kwifi manager might have tools for it...
[12:29] <cellofellow> not sure though, never actually used Linux and wifi.
[12:29] <cellofellow> try wifi-radar
[12:29] <zyth> Oh, I could use WPA-supplicant, I just dont see why *Ubuntu* has a zeroconf-like thing and xubuntu doesn't
[12:29] <zyth> cellofellow, and is that on the CD?
[12:30] <cellofellow> nope, may be on the DVD
[12:30] <zyth> Hmm k.
[12:30] <zyth> I'll look into it.
[12:30] <zyth> thncx
[12:30] <zyth> *thnx, even
[12:30] <cellofellow> you can always just plug in to internet or use a thumbdrive to install software from inet.
[12:31] <zyth> yep, I can put the deb on SD card.
[12:31] <cellofellow> :-)
[12:31] <zyth> just figured I *had* to be missing something, since both Ubuntu and Kubuntu have zero config wifi setups
[12:31] <zyth> lol
[12:31] <cellofellow> Ubuntu and Kubuntu have heavy-duty DE's, with over-done apps.
[12:32] <zyth> Thanks! :)
[12:32] <cellofellow> Still, I have to admit, wirelessassistant or whatever the KDE app is works really well, on LiveCD.
[12:32] <cellofellow> Worked perfectly with my dads laptop.
[12:33] <Troubled-Jay> that's a point, actually, i just "repaired" (read: reformatted, replacing windows with xubuntu) a lappy for a friend. i've not tested the wifi, i'll mibby replace xubuntu with ubuntu or kubuntu before i give it back to him.
[12:34] <cellofellow> nah, just install that one app, like wifi-radar, and go.
[12:34] <cellofellow> I got wifi-radar to work on Ubuntu livecd too.
[12:34] <cellofellow> had to install from thumbdrive.
[12:35] <varustah> is there a setting to fix the lockout when u are asked for your user password?
[12:35] <Troubled-Jay> will wifi-radar support wpa, or will i have to go through all the trouble i had with getting wpa on damnsmall, manually editing the interfaces file?
[12:35] <varustah> i am using onboard
[12:36] <cellofellow> wifi-radar I think is profile based.
[12:36] <cellofellow> varustah: lockout?
[12:37] <varustah> k when im asked for my password, i cant use onboard
[12:37] <cellofellow> Troubled-Jay: it has wpasupplicant as a recommended package, so it should support it.
[12:37] <cellofellow> varustah: what's onboard?
[12:37] <varustah> onscreen keyboard
[12:38] <cellofellow> :(
[12:38] <cellofellow> you mean when gksu shows up? The password prompt for admin programs?
[12:38] <varustah> well i use gnome more
[12:39] <varustah> ya i think
[12:39] <cellofellow> I guess you could just use sudo and a terminal instead. You'd have to learn the lauching commands.
[12:39] <varustah> like login window settings
[12:40] <cellofellow> that one is gdmsetup
[12:40] <cellofellow> y not use hardware keyboard?
[12:40] <varustah> well gnome has "password dialogs as floating window"
[12:41] <varustah> mobility
[12:41] <cellofellow> if the gnome tool works, use it
[12:42] <varustah> gnome is good with accessability
[12:42] <varustah> but xfce is faster
[12:42] <neozen> xfce however, lacks a few things
[12:43] <cellofellow> or else it would just be gnome
[12:43] <varustah> ya
[12:43] <varustah> good point
[12:44] <Troubled-Jay> with the right libs, most gnome-based apps work in xfce, in my experience
[12:44] <neozen> but a little careful searching and selective installation of a few things that it does lack (easy wireless networking for an example) can result in perfectly good apps with only a few dependencies
[12:44] <varustah> i love gnome, just like trying others
[12:45] <Troubled-Jay> gnome reminds me too much of MacOS, or Amiga Workbench
[12:45] <varustah> i tried fluxbox and enlightenment
[12:45] <Troubled-Jay> but not enough like Workbench to be nostalgically worth using
[12:46] <varustah> kde is sweet too i guess
[12:47] <varustah> i havent used ubuntu as a main os yet, still virtualization
[12:49] <cellofellow> I've used XFCE for a good 9 months or so now. Before that I was Mr. KDE, cause I started with Knoppix and moved to Kubuntu, but my computer is too slow.
[12:49] <cellofellow> When I get a new computer, it will include gnome by default (Dell N-series) but I will try KDE and may just fall back to XFCE.
[12:50] <varustah> i wanna dual boot ubuntu/xp
[12:51] <cellofellow> Sounds cool. I never used XP.
[12:51] <cellofellow> Only windows I ever used was 98, and now I upgraded that to 2000.
[12:51] <varustah> stable imo
[12:51] <cellofellow> b4 that I used Mac OS Classic.
[12:51] <cellofellow> :)
[12:52] <varustah> vista horror stories are all i hear
[12:52] <cellofellow> oh, and my moms laptop, that I used to have, has WinME. Even more horror stories than Vista.
[12:53] <varustah> and dell is helping with ubuntu/linux support
[12:53] <varustah> with drivers
[12:53] <varustah> ewwww
[12:53] <varustah> lol
[12:53] <cellofellow> Hope they get that Wireless-N card that is optional on the windows version of the 1420 working with Ubuntu.
[12:56] <cellofellow> only option on 1420 N is a 802.11a/b/g card, no n option.
[12:56] <varustah> gotta eat, thx, gnite
[01:07] <Troubled-Jay> what's the command to mount bin/cue files on a virtual drive?
[01:07] <Troubled-Jay> wait, that's iso you can do that with
[01:08] <zials> yea, conver it to ISO first
[01:09] <zials> this site offers a good enough guide -> http://www.jonhoweonline.com/blog/node/82
[01:11] <Troubled-Jay> is there an easier way to burn KVCD iso -> DVD?
[01:19] <zials> mhmm... can't you burn it on a CD-R?
[01:20] <Troubled-Jay> VCDs don't play on playstation2 and my standalone DVD player broke...and i only have 4 CDRs left and i'm flat broke
[01:21] <Troubled-Jay> i've got about 10 or 15 DVD-Rs
[01:23] <zials> well... I only know about devede... though I'm not sure if it will take in a KVCD
[01:23] <wckdkl0wn> will xubuntu run ok on a amd k6-300?
[01:24] <wckdkl0wn> it would only be used to web surfing and card games pretty much
[01:24] <zials> yup
[01:25] <zials> well, there have been people who've been able to run it, so... well, how much ram do you have?
[01:25] <wckdkl0wn> i think it is 128
[01:25] <wckdkl0wn> its possible it has 256 i dunno
[01:25] <zials> thats good enough
[01:25] <wckdkl0wn> maybe if i remove the desktop and add fluxbox? it would run faster?
[01:26] <zials> well, the only thing I recommend is using the alternate CD to install instead of the LiveCD
[01:27] <zials> yup
[01:30] <wckdkl0wn> shoot i am about half way through the cd download
[01:30] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[02:22] <wckdkl0wn> download of alternate cd is taking forever
[02:22] <wckdkl0wn> only getting 56k a sec
[02:22] <wckdkl0wn> should be well over 100
[02:35] <neozen> time to use a different mirror
[02:37] <neozen> a question
[02:39] <neozen> would anyone consider having the icon box support flashing (via something fast like color inversion) the application's icon upon change of the application (in the same instances where the button in the task-list would flash?
[02:39] <Jester45> i wouldnt like that
[02:40] <Jester45> i dont even like when the task ones flash
[02:42] <wckdkl0wn> i used the torrent version instead
[02:42] <wckdkl0wn> going much faster now
[02:43] <Jester45> thats what its there for
[02:43] <Jester45> and to make the server downloads faster because they have less load then
[02:59] <mrpo1> hello hello
[03:00] <mrpo1> /getinfo pok
[03:00] <mrpo1> whoops
[03:01] <mrpo1> Well I succesfully installed xubuntu, and downloaded gnomebaker, and am currently burning away. :)
[03:02] <wckdkl0wn> what is gnomebaker?
[03:02] <mrpo1> Although, gnomebaker says it has approx 450 minutes remaining...
[03:02] <mrpo1> CD burning app
[03:02] <wckdkl0wn> why dont u just use k3b?
[03:03] <mrpo1> I've never heard of it.
[03:03] <wckdkl0wn> i was told to use k3b for burning cd's
[03:04] <wckdkl0wn> its in the repositories too
[03:04] <mrpo1> The program that's pre-installed, xfburn, I had problems with, so I checked the web and somewhere mentioned gnomebaker
[03:04] <mrpo1> I'll track down k3b and try that one later on
[03:04] <wckdkl0wn> well for ubuntu it is i dunno about xubuntu but i would assume it would be
[03:04] <wckdkl0wn> i just did apt-get install k3b from terminal and it install in like 10 seconds lol
[03:04] <mrpo1> Thanks for the tip. :)
[03:05] <wckdkl0wn> doesnt have mp3 suport right away though
[03:05] <wckdkl0wn> there is something else u have to install to use it with mp3's and such
[03:05] <mrpo1> I've only ever used the synaptic package manager
[03:05] <wckdkl0wn> go to terminal
[03:05] <wckdkl0wn> type sudo apt-get install k3b
[03:05] <wckdkl0wn> pretty simple
[03:06] <mrpo1> alright, it's d/ling now
[03:07] <mrpo1> so 'apt-get' calls the repositories?
[03:07] <wckdkl0wn> yea
[03:07] <mrpo1> which is just a list of known working apps?
[03:07] <wckdkl0wn> sudo gives it admin rights to install
[03:07] <wckdkl0wn> pretty much
[03:09] <mrpo1> Well I'm a little less stupid then when I woke up.
[03:09] <mrpo1> now pretty much any program can be used from the terminal, right?
[03:11] <wckdkl0wn> yea
[03:11] <mrpo1> I just need to know the commands to use.
[03:12] <wckdkl0wn> after u install it in terminal look at ur menus up top
[03:12] <mrpo1> At a guess, if I wanted to install Opera, i'd 'sudo apt-get install opera'
[03:12] <wckdkl0wn> should be in there
[03:12] <mrpo1> It's still downloading.
[03:12] <wckdkl0wn> i believe so
[03:13] <wckdkl0wn> really?
[03:13] <mrpo1> Can I do that in the same terminal that's d/ling k3b, or should I open another window?
[03:13] <wckdkl0wn> i would wait til that is done first
[03:13] <wckdkl0wn> do u have a slow internet connection?>
[03:14] <mrpo1> Not really, just a few extra packages that need to be installed, I guess.
[03:14] <wckdkl0wn> cause k3b installed for me in like 10 seconds
[03:14] <vidd> mrpo1, you can open a new terminal....no harm done
[03:14] <mrpo1> this is only the second app I've installed, so it probably needs support packages
[03:14] <mrpo1> Thanks vidd
[03:14] <vidd> wait...dl'ing? or installing ?
[03:15] <wckdkl0wn> both
[03:15] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[03:15] <mrpo1> Yeah, both. :)
[03:15] <mrpo1> 'apt-get' ing
[03:15] <vidd> well,,,,then apt is locked and you have to wait
[03:16] <wckdkl0wn> if ur installing soemthing with apt-get then u cant open another terminal and try to do anoyther apt-get
[03:16] <mrpo1> OK, no worries.
[03:16] <mrpo1> thanks guys. :)
[03:16] <wckdkl0wn> same reason u cant go into ur package manager right now lol
[03:16] <wckdkl0wn> ur basically using package manager right now just not the gui manager
[03:17] <mrpo1> nod, ok.
[03:28] <mrpo1> Gnomebaker seemed to burn OK, if a little slow.
[03:29] <mrpo1> I've not used this burner before, though, so I'm not sure how fast it should be.
[03:29] <wckdkl0wn> mrpo1, ok after u isntall k3b if u intend to burn mp3's to audio cd's u will need to do 2 things
[03:29] <mrpo1> Just backing up audio CDs right now
[03:29] <mrpo1> one drive to another
[03:29] <wckdkl0wn> "sudo apt-get install libk3b2-mp3"
[03:30] <wckdkl0wn> and "sudo apt-get install libmad0"
[03:31] <mrpo1> Is that a zero or capital 'o'
[03:32] <wckdkl0wn> zero
[03:32] <mrpo1> done and done, thank you.
[03:32] <wckdkl0wn> np
[03:33] <mrpo1> So where do you get this information from?
[03:33] <wckdkl0wn> lmao i just closed the window with the link
[03:33] <mrpo1> Would I just google info on k3b?
[03:34] <wckdkl0wn> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[03:34] <wckdkl0wn> To add mp3 support to GnomeBaker, install gstreamer0.8-mad and gstreamer0.8-misc.
[03:34] <wckdkl0wn> To add mp3 support to K3b, install libk3b2-mp3.
[03:44] <mrpo1> So whats a good alternative to firefox in xfce?
[03:45] <zials> well, you mean asside from firefox itself?
[03:46] <zials> theres... Dillo, which is more lightweight
[03:46] <mrpo1> Yeah- Is there anything that's a bit slimmer?
[03:46] <mrpo1> Does it still have tabbed browsing?
[03:46] <zials> I believe theres a patch...
[03:46] <mrpo1> Thanks, I'll check it out
[03:47] <zials> http://www.dillo.org/
[03:49] <wckdkl0wn> i wonder if there is a program that will go to a website u tell it to and keep refreshing until a new link shows up on the page and then alerts u
[03:50] <wckdkl0wn> anyone hear of something like this?
[03:50] <zials> ... I don't think I understood the point of that
[03:50] <wckdkl0wn> well see i use a site for the ad clicks thing and it pays out
[03:51] <wckdkl0wn> but not all the time are there ads to click on
[03:51] <wckdkl0wn> have to keep going back and refreshing
[03:51] <wckdkl0wn> and most of the time i miss them cause i wasnt there to refresh it
[03:51] <mrpo1> iCab has something like that, but its a osx app
[03:52] <wckdkl0wn> osx?
[03:52] <wckdkl0wn> oh
[03:52] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[03:52] <mrpo1> Mac OS
[03:52] <wckdkl0wn> duh
[03:52] <mrpo1> :)
[03:52] <mrpo1> The 'other other' OS
[03:53] <Jester45> you could wget url maybe
[03:53] <Jester45> or w3m
[03:54] <mrpo1> Dillo is available in Debian, GNU-Darwin, Slackware, RPMs and NetBSD. I want the Debian one, right?
[03:54] <zials> yup
[03:55] <Jester45> you can  apt-get isntall dillo
[03:55] <Jester45> install*
[03:55] <wckdkl0wn> sudo apt-get
[03:56] <Jester45> useing apt or source is best as debain packages are becoming less and less compatiable
[03:56] <mrpo1> Jester, do you mean use apt-get instead of sudo apt-get?
[03:57] <mrpo1> I'm a complete newbie, forgive me.
[03:57] <zials> no, he means don't use the debian package
[03:57] <wckdkl0wn> sudo just tells linux that the admin is installing this not just a user  (more or less kinda like that lol)
[03:57] <mrpo1> So install from the terminal, rather than downloading from the page?
[03:58] <wckdkl0wn> yup
[03:58] <zials> or use synaptic if you like a graphical interface
[03:59] <Jester45> sudo makes the command be run by root
[03:59] <Jester45> and is needed when installing packages
[03:59] <mrpo1> I may as well get used to the terminal. :)
[03:59] <Jester45> i keep a root terminal open all the time so i dont use sudo to often
[03:59] <mrpo1> Thanks guys
[04:00] <Jester45> mrpo1: for later package needs try seaching apt-cache search term
[04:00] <Jester45> sudo isnt needed
[04:00] <Jester45> it will save you time
[04:00] <wckdkl0wn> make terminal ur friend
[04:00] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[04:00] <zials> does apt-cache give descriptions too?
[04:01] <mrpo1> Jester, I don't quite follow
[04:01] <Jester45> linux is not windows you dont have to use google to find programs
[04:01] <Jester45> mrpo1: if you want a program use apt-cache search <term>
[04:01] <Jester45> term being what you are searching so
[04:01] <Jester45> for*
[04:02] <zials> wouldn't synaptic be more new-user-friendly?
[04:02] <Jester45> so apt-cache search dillo would find things related to dillo or more generally you could do web browser
[04:02] <Jester45> maybe
[04:02] <mrpo1> Ah, I see
[04:02] <Jester45> i wouldnt think so
[04:02] <wckdkl0wn> yea but he would eventually need to learn terminal
[04:03] <Jester45> need = should
[04:03] <Jester45> and probly will
[04:05] <wckdkl0wn> without terminal ur pretty much a windows user lol
[04:16] <mrpo1> OK, I seem to have found a Dillo patch with tabs at http://www.geocities.com/ikbenfrank/, but I'm not sure if it will work with xubuntu
[04:18] <Jester45> it should be
[04:20] <tupa> where are the C and C++ manual pages??, I installed gcc-doc but there isn't a single C/C++ manual
[04:20] <mrpo1> OK so when I'm not using apt-get to install, how do I install the .gz from the desktop?
[04:20] <Jester45> have you looked at   man gcc
[04:20] <mrpo1> or how do I apply the patch
[04:21] <Jester45>   mrpo1 its source code
[04:23] <Jester45> im kinda busy right now i could help in a while maybe someone else could explain
[04:24] <mrpo1> No worries, I'm about to head into town anyway.
[04:24] <mrpo1> Forgive my ignorance. :)
[04:28] <Jester45> np your new i was new once apon a time
[04:30] <mrpo1> Do I need to add this source code to the dillo source, then recompile it? Or am I on the wrong track completely?
[04:30] <Jester45> yea
[04:30] <Jester45> getting there
[04:31] <Pumpernickel> Use `patch`, merge the patch, and then compile.
[04:34] <wckdkl0wn> hrmm setup on the k6 2/300 hangs
[04:34] <wckdkl0wn> before it gets to setup anyway
[04:35] <Jester45> wckdkl0wn: error?
[04:35] <wckdkl0wn> no error just hangs
[04:35] <wckdkl0wn> right after it starts to boot from cd it says
[04:36] <wckdkl0wn> initializing gfx....
[04:36] <wckdkl0wn> then has 4 lines of memory malloc ******
[04:36] <wckdkl0wn> and just hangs after that
[04:37] <wckdkl0wn> has a blinking cursor under all that
[04:39] <wckdkl0wn> i wonder if i could install my copy of ubuntu to it and then downgrade it to run better
[04:42] <wckdkl0wn> nvm hangs on that too
[04:42] <wckdkl0wn> same thing
[04:42] <Jester45> downgrade? you mean upgrade it to xfce
[04:42] <wckdkl0wn> make it smaller i meant lol
[04:43] <wckdkl0wn> its a very old system and its just used by the kids for web browsing and card games
[04:43] <Jester45> maybe try a diffrent version
[04:44] <wckdkl0wn> i tryed ubuntu 5.04 earlier
[04:44] <wckdkl0wn> got about half way through and errored out
[04:45] <Jester45> try 7.10
[04:45] <Jester45> older is probly not better
[04:45] <wckdkl0wn> i just did
[04:45] <wckdkl0wn> lol
[04:46] <wckdkl0wn> thats the ubuntu i was talkin about trying to install then downgrade
[04:46] <Jester45> o
[04:46] <Jester45> how about a debain netinstall?
[04:46] <wckdkl0wn> ?
[04:47] <Jester45> just get the most basic system change the source.list then install xubuntu-desktop
[04:48] <wckdkl0wn> "sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop"
[04:48] <wckdkl0wn> right?
[04:49] <Jester45> yea after you change the /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:49] <wckdkl0wn> ok
[04:50] <Jester45> dont install the DE
[04:50] <Jester45> as that will give you the debain gui and related programs
[04:50] <Jester45> the basic system is the same and should convert with no problem
[04:52] <wckdkl0wn> i wonder if it is the gfx that is hanging it up
[04:53] <Jester45> anyone here good with grub?
[04:53] <Jester45> what would you use for grub inreplacement of /hdb1
[04:53] <Jester45> hd1,0?
[05:18] <_MMA_> Hi all. Can anyone tell me what package holds the "Task List" applet for the panel?
[05:21] <Jester45> um
[05:25] <Jester45> not sure
[05:25] <Jester45> you can search synatics or using apt-cache search
[05:26] <_MMA_> I did. Its not obvious.
[05:27] <Jester45> it might just be intergrated into the panel package
[05:27] <Jester45> why do you need it
[05:29] <_MMA_> Jester45: Because just grabbing xfce4 and xfce4-panel doesnt seem to get it. So it looks to be an applet. Which one, I dont know.
[05:29] <Jester45> try xfce-goodies
[05:31] <_MMA_> Im sure one of the packages is part of that. Im just trying to narrow it down.
[05:46] <Linuturk> how do I upgrade edgy xubuntu to feisty?
[05:51] <_MMA_> Linuturk: Hi. :) Just change the entries in your sources.list to feisty. The dist-upgrade. I would have thought you would know that. ;)
[05:52] <Linuturk> I knew how to do that, just thought there was another way
[06:00] <coldsteal> hello i am trying to get a softphone working and i have tryed allot of them and i cant get my mic to work with some of them i get the error /dev/dsp missing or /dev/esp mising
[06:21] <Dark_Nexus> hello
[06:22] <Dark_Nexus> trying to modify mime types, and i'm not sure how
[06:26] <wckdkl0wn> what are some other cool desktop addons like desklets?
[06:53] <capo> will compiz work on xubuntu?
[06:55] <hyper_ch> capo: yes
[06:55] <capo> thanks

[09:07] <mrpol> hey hey
[09:08] <mrpol> What should I do when a program hangs? K3B is just sitting there on the burn dialog, 0% done.
[09:09] <mrpol> I've hit cancel, no response, hit the close button, no response.
[09:12] <tupa> mrpol kill the app
[09:13] <tupa> mrpol you have several options, the easier one is to do a CTRL+ALT+ESC and click on k3b so the processes are killed
[09:14] <tupa> the other one is looking at the processes table with ps -e and using kill -9 pid_number or killall -9 nameofapp
[09:20] <mrpo1> OK, remind me not to kill K3B on the taskbar next time. :)
[09:21] <mrpo1> I think I killed the taskbar, rather than K3B.
[09:21] <mrpo1> I had to restart
[09:23] <mrpo1> Is there a keyboard shortcut to get a terminal line?
[09:47] <tors> mrpo1: CTRL + ALT + (F1-F6, F7 will get you back to the Desktop)
[09:53] <anto> Hi!
[09:54] <anto> I am new with Ubuntu and I need to find related info regarding to Oracle installation within Linux Ubuntu. Can you help me to find the informations?
[09:57] <anto> Hi Linuxers ! :)
[10:00] <anto> Hmm..very tranquil.
[10:00] <anto> Signing out...
[02:22] <FactTech> Question: I am trying to install Xubuntu on a very low memory older machine (32MB). Even the 6.10 alternate install CD is reporting that there isn't enough memory. Will it install a command line system? If so, will hardware detection happen on install?
[03:06] <taxman> hmm, weird, just installed 7.04 on my laptop and after logging in, if I try to run terminal, it crashes X every time and brings me back to the login screen. I found I can run xterm. What should I be looking for for the error?
[03:49] <fijam> hello
[03:49] <Countess_Julia> hi
[04:09] <silvertip257> Hello, I'm trying to use the alternate xubuntu 7.04 cd to install on an old-er pc but it fails at "Select and Install Software" ... any ideas?
[05:45] <th3man> how do i change time format from edt to utc?
[05:45] <th3man> can someone tell me where that file is located?
[06:29] <panfist> hello, im using feisty installed on a laptop and i have two questions...1) when i close my screen an app called "x screen saver" or something comes on and locks my computer, how can i set it up so that it doesnt lock but just turns the screen off,
[06:29] <panfist> and two, how can i troubleshoot my laptop not being able to resume from standby
[06:35] <zials> well, for #1, try going to Applications -> Settings -> Screensaver settings
[06:35] <zials> and uncheck the "lock screen after x minutes"
[06:36] <panfist> well zials i have the screensaver completely disabled actually, just when i shut the laptop it comes on
[06:36] <panfist> in the .xscreensaver config file there is even a line that says lock: false
[06:37] <zials> ahh, that
[06:38] <zials> I believe theres a file to modify.. 1 sec
[06:38] <zials> ok, open /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank with mousepad or any text editor
[06:39] <zials> and remove the "xscreensaver-command - lock" line
[06:39] <panfist> ok
[06:40] <zials> or remove the whole "if" statement
[06:40] <hyper__ch> hiho
[06:40] <zials> up to you
[06:40] <panfist> does # start a comment?
[06:41] <panfist> i'll just comment it out instead of deleting it until i know it works
[06:41] <zials> yup...
[06:41] <hyper__ch> panfist: what language?
[06:41] <zials> hyper__ch - its the file /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank
[06:41] <hyper__ch> panfist: bash script?
[06:41] <panfist> i dunno
[06:42] <panfist> some kind of OS scripting i think
[06:42] <zials> looks like bash to me
[06:42] <hyper__ch> zials: bash script?
[06:42] <panfist> do i need to restart X for it to take effect?
[06:44] <zials> I'm guessing so.. since it uses X
[06:44] <zials> and yea, its bash
[06:45] <panfist> i didnt have to restart x...i guess it just reads the file whenever it needs it
[06:46] <zials> it works though?
[06:46] <panfist> yup it does exactly whati want, turns off the monitor but leaves it unlocked if i shut the screen
[06:46] <hyper__ch> then the # will comment that line
[06:46] <panfist> i commented out the whole nested if within the first if
[06:47] <Countess_Julia> hey guys
[06:47] <Countess_Julia> someone knows a better way to install xubuntu 7.04 in a pc
[06:47] <panfist> better than what
[06:47] <zials> better than alternate CD?
[06:47] <Countess_Julia> a better way than the descripted in the help page
[06:48] <panfist> if the live CD and alternate CD both give you errors, it might be due to a bug between the new kernel in feisty and your specific hardware configuration
[06:48] <Countess_Julia> i have the live cd, i have started the xfce and it doesnt work
[06:48] <zials> did you try the alternate one?
[06:49] <Countess_Julia> how can i do that
[06:49] <zials> its at the same place as LiveCD
[06:50] <zials> http://www.xubuntu.org/get
[06:50] <zials> get the alternate version for your system
[06:50] <Countess_Julia> but
[06:50] <Countess_Julia> i have 64k connection
[06:51] <Countess_Julia> i had to wait 2 weeks to download the live cd
[06:51] <zials> mhmm... I wonder where the mini xubuntu download is
[06:51] <bambam_> hi
[06:51] <panfist> you can request a CD by mail and they will send it to you, probably faster than you can download
[06:51] <Countess_Julia> i'm in argentina
[06:52] <Countess_Julia> they can do that?
[06:52] <panfist> i believe so
[06:52] <Countess_Julia> send the cd to argentina?
[06:52] <Countess_Julia> whats the cost?
[06:52] <zials> they don't have any for xubuntu
[06:52] <Countess_Julia> o.o
[06:53] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: https://shipit.ubuntu.com/login
[06:53] <Countess_Julia> i think i have to download it
[06:53] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: you have bittorrent?
[06:53] <Countess_Julia> thanks hyper_ch
[06:53] <Countess_Julia> i'll try
[06:53] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: or can you go to a university or something like that?
[06:54] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: you could also try a ubuntu loco in argentina if they could send you the alternate cd
[06:54] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: why do you want to use xfce and not gnome?
[06:54] <Countess_Julia> no, we here, in argentina, use windows xp pirated
[06:54] <zials> wasen't there that.. mini download (like 8mb in size)
[06:55] <Countess_Julia> it works?? the mini download
[06:55] <hyper_ch> who doesn't use pirated windows software?
[06:55] <zials> o.o
[06:55] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: I don't think it was 8MB... I thought it was more than that... but then you will need to download everything else through the net
[06:56] <zials> well, there are other smaller distros...
[06:56] <Countess_Julia> ouch
[06:56] <Countess_Julia> like puppy linux??
[06:56] <Countess_Julia> i had heared it's 80 mb
[06:56] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: puppy or I use DamnSmallLinux on my USB stick
[06:57] <Countess_Julia> kk
[06:57] <zials> DSL is... 50 mb
[06:57] <zials> or somewhere in that area
[06:57] <Countess_Julia> i have 64 kbps in cablemodem
[06:59] <Countess_Julia> we all, in argentina, have windows xp, no one has linux
[07:00] <Countess_Julia> i dont have no one to ask
[07:00] <hyper_ch> a cablemodem capped at 64kbps? wow, that sux :(
[07:02] <zials> well... theres also fluxbuntu... but its not really in a final state
[07:02] <zials> although... how much ram do you have?
[07:03] <hyper_ch> hmm, something's killing my inet conn
[07:03] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: http://www.ubuntu-ar.org
[07:04] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: maybe someone there can send you the cd
[07:04] <Countess_Julia> ehhh...
[07:04] <Countess_Julia> 192 mb ram
[07:04] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: how much ram do you have?
[07:04] <Countess_Julia> 1ghz proccessor
[07:05] <Countess_Julia> 192 mb
[07:05] <hyper_ch> ah, that's little ram
[07:05] <hyper_ch> Countess_Julia: alternate install cd is very much recommended
[07:08] <Countess_Julia> thank you, but i think i better install damn small linux
[07:08] <Countess_Julia> i'm downloading it's torrent version
[07:09] <Countess_Julia> good bye thanks for the help
[07:38] <Hidan> hmm... does xubuntu have Asian language(Japanese/Chinese) support?

[08:14] <Balaams_Miracle> (that was a "yes" :-))
[08:14] <pascal80> Balaams_Miracle: ok thanks, was looking in ubuntu repos...
[08:15] <Balaams_Miracle> pascal80, i feel that VB should be in the Ubuntu repos, but i guess it will take some time before that happens
[08:15] <hyper_ch> Balaams_Miracle: VmWare handles USB devices better
[08:16] <Balaams_Miracle> hyper_ch, true. But in VB you can at least create your own VM's
[08:16] <hyper_ch> Balaams_Miracle: maybe with gutsy but I doubt it
