| laserbeak43 | 2 questions | 01:10 |
|---|---|---|
| laserbeak43 | how do i tab in emacs? | 01:10 |
| laserbeak43 | pressing tab does nothing | 01:11 |
| laserbeak43 | and how do i tell emacs that i'm writting c++ code? | 01:11 |
| cellofellow | no idea, never touched the thing. | 01:11 |
| cellofellow | huge GNU that thing is. Intimidating. | 01:11 |
| laserbeak43 | hehe ok | 01:11 |
| laserbeak43 | found an emacs channel | 01:11 |
| laserbeak43 | yeah i agree | 01:11 |
| laserbeak43 | but i don't think i'll fully understand programming till i understand compiling more | 01:12 |
| laserbeak43 | the lower the level the more i'll learn i think | 01:12 |
| cellofellow | so, use vim or scite. Much simpler text editors, with all the power you need. | 01:12 |
| laserbeak43 | true | 01:13 |
| laserbeak43 | but so many people recommend emacs | 01:13 |
| Jester45 | really? | 01:14 |
| Jester45 | im +1 to scite | 01:14 |
| Jester45 | and nano is nice | 01:14 |
| laserbeak43 | cool | 01:15 |
| Jester45 | for quick config editing and mousepad is good for copying from or something that needs a lot of scrolling | 01:15 |
| laserbeak43 | i do like wscite | 01:15 |
| === michaelpo [n=presario@60.52.3.28] has left #xubuntu [] | ||
| cellofellow | nano is like mousepad. Simple and pleasant. Also not for code. | 01:16 |
| laserbeak43 | lol PHUCK THAT | 01:16 |
| laserbeak43 | scite it is | 01:16 |
| laserbeak43 | i forgot about all those commands lol!! | 01:16 |
| Jester45 | i said | 01:18 |
| Jester45 | nano is good for config editing | 01:18 |

| cellofellow | you did? ok. :( | 01:19 |
| cellofellow | I still like SciTE for that better. Has highlighting. | 01:19 |

| Balaams_Miracle | Totally off-topic, but i just had to share this gem: "The lady was using a power strip to plug her computer and other devices into. Windows was completely frozen, and she was unable to shut down the machine by using the power button. She mentioned the power strip, so I told her to flip it off. She said, "Ok, I gave it the finger. I feel better."" | 01:54 |
| kekk | lol | 01:54 |
| Balaams_Miracle | I'll go back into lurkhood now :-)) | 01:54 |
| === kekk follows | ||
| === Jester45 points Balaams_Miracle to #xubuntu-offtopic incase he didnt know about it | ||

| Balaams_Miracle | Something on-topic then, is there a way to get my numlock turned on by default? Because doing it manually (or forgetting to do it) is getting very boring.... | 02:00 |
| kekk | indeed, was just wondering that earlier | 02:00 |
| cellofellow | My BIOS turns it on by default, but once the Linux kernel boots, it turns it off. | 02:03 |
| Balaams_Miracle | And therein, my friend lies the problem. Once the OS is booted and ready for use, it's off. So i want the not do that anymore, if possible :-) | 02:05 |
| cellofellow | no idea | 02:06 |
| vidd | there is an app to turn on the number lock | 02:06 |

| vidd | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock | 02:08 |
| Balaams_Miracle | That seems rather silly to me, an app to turn a setting (numlock) on after Linux has turned it off bny default. IMO, all that's needed is change the default behaviour | 02:08 |
| Balaams_Miracle | Ah, thankjs. | 02:08 |
| === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| === Balaams_Miracle cna't tpye. | ||
| vidd | unlike windows, linux does not allow itself to be spoon-fed junk from the system bios | 02:10 |
| Balaams_Miracle | vidd, i know. But i would at least expect to be able to change the default numlock status from within Xfce. | 02:11 |
| vidd | just follow the guide i gave ya | 02:12 |
| Balaams_Miracle | This is silly. If this setting can be changed from within Gnome (without the need to install anything extra!), why can't it be changed from within Xfce? | 02:14 |
| cellofellow | !latex | 02:14 |
| ubotu | tex is a language for describing a document, commonly used especially for scientific publishing. Information and instructions for installing TeX and other related packages can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaTeX | 02:14 |
| vidd | because xfce != gnome | 02:15 |
| vidd | besides (i think) gnome comes with numlockx | 02:16 |
| Balaams_Miracle | If it does, then the guide is very flawed. Why try installing an app if it should already be present on the system? | 02:17 |
| vidd | i dont use gnome, so im not 100% sure | 02:18 |
| === rhavenn [n=rhavenn@byte-inet.bytenetworking.com] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| vidd | and xubuntu does NOT have numlockx by default | 02:18 |
| kekk | my ubuntu doesn't have it | 02:19 |
| vidd | then i have no idea how gnome turns the numlock on | 02:20 |
| === gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| laserbeak43 | can i assign a hotkey to my xfce applications menu like how the windows button launches the start menu in windows? | 02:35 |
| zials | yup... | 02:36 |
| zials | applications -> settings -> keyboard settings | 02:36 |
| zials | go in the shortcuts tab, and add a new "theme" | 02:37 |
| laserbeak43 | hmm ok i'll try it | 02:37 |
| === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| laserbeak43 | crap | 02:38 |
| laserbeak43 | so how would i find the file for the application menu | 02:38 |
| zials | its.. the xfce menu | 02:39 |
| === rathel_ [n=rathel@c-24-9-186-226.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| laserbeak43 | zials: YOUKNOW WHERE I CAN FIND THAT? | 02:46 |
| laserbeak43 | sorry about the caps | 02:46 |
| cellofellow | what's the matter? | 02:46 |
| zials | it should be on your panel | 02:46 |
| zials | if not, you can add it | 02:47 |
| zials | right click panel -> add new item -> select "xfce menu" from the list | 02:47 |
| kekk | he wanted a keyboard shortcut for it, no? | 02:47 |
| vidd | [ctrl] [esc] should bring it up | 02:47 |
| cellofellow | it's already ^Esc | 02:47 |
| laserbeak43 | yeah | 02:48 |
| cellofellow | never managed to get it to respond to just Super though. | 02:48 |
| laserbeak43 | i already have the applications menu | 02:48 |
| cellofellow | is something not showing in the menu? | 02:48 |
| laserbeak43 | i'm in the keyboard settings menu | 02:48 |
| laserbeak43 | i want to press a button to get the applications dropdown list to show up | 02:48 |
| zials | yea, go in the shortcuts tab | 02:48 |
| laserbeak43 | but when i try to add a key in the shortcuts tab | 02:49 |
| laserbeak43 | it tells me to browse for an application | 02:49 |
| cellofellow | It never works with just one button. Works with two though. (^Esc) | 02:49 |
| zials | yea, so in the "themes" box, click "add" at the bottom | 02:49 |
| laserbeak43 | i want to open the applications menu | 02:49 |
| laserbeak43 | im there | 02:49 |
| zials | now, the list of shortcuts should be accessible, right? | 02:49 |
| kekk | Regarding shortcuts, why doesn't '/bin/bash' work with Ctrl+Alt+T? | 02:50 |
| laserbeak43 | no | 02:50 |
| laserbeak43 | it browses for files | 02:50 |
| cellofellow | kekk: try `Terminal`. | 02:50 |
| kekk | no dice | 02:50 |
| cellofellow | Mine has xfce4-popup-menu already mapped to Control+Escape | 02:50 |
| kekk | oh, I got it now, thanks cellofellow | 02:51 |
| cellofellow | kekk: I have Terminal mapped to ^M-t. (^ is ctrl, M is menta, alt.) | 02:51 |
| cellofellow | meta* | 02:51 |
| kekk | menta? | 02:51 |
| kekk | meta? | 02:51 |
| kekk | oh, ok | 02:52 |
| cellofellow | the Meta key is on normal PC keyboards Alt. | 02:52 |
| cellofellow | It's on other layouts a different name. | 02:52 |
| kekk | yep, I get it | 02:52 |
| cellofellow | Just comes from the UNIX background of the softwares. | 02:52 |
| cellofellow | ^M-Home opens Thunar at my ~/ dir. | 02:53 |
| cellofellow | well, I'm gonna go zone out for a little while. | 02:53 |

| kekk | hmm, when I try to map the xfce4-popup-menu and press the super, it shortcuts it to super+super_l.. | 02:53 |
| laserbeak43 | zials: http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/6596/screenshotbb4.png | 02:54 |
| zials | laserbeak43 - you input "xfce4-popup-menu" for the applications menu shortcut | 02:55 |
| zials | you'll see that its already mapped to control + escape | 02:55 |
| kekk | laserbeak43, can you help me with beryl? I don't have desktop icons nor can't find a way to change the background picture | 02:56 |
| zials | once you hit "ok" it'll ask you to hit the key that you want to assign the command to... | 02:56 |
| laserbeak43 | zials: cool | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | thanks | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | \damn | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | the windows icon wont work | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | i wanted to makeit usefull | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | kekk: | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | i really dont know what to tell you | 02:57 |
| kekk | ok, no problem | 02:57 |
| laserbeak43 | all i did was install it from synaptic | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | and it worked | 02:58 |
| zials | mhmm, do you have a menu key? (some keyboards have it next to the windows key) | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | although | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | i know if you download icon files(i dont know how or where) | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | i know you can load them into beryl | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | i'll look for the option | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | oh yes | 02:58 |
| kekk | no, no need to, I'll try to find it myself | 02:58 |
| laserbeak43 | zials: you mean the right click key? | 02:59 |
| laserbeak43 | does that do nothing in linux? | 02:59 |
| zials | see if it does anything o.o | 02:59 |
| laserbeak43 | you sure? | 02:59 |
| laserbeak43 | nah it isnt doing anything | 02:59 |
| laserbeak43 | u sure kekk? | 02:59 |
| kekk | yep, laserbeak43 | 03:00 |

| homa_rano | zials: re 8 hours ago, I tried gparted from the xubuntu alternate cd, but it still didn't see any partitions | 03:18 |

| homa_rano | do you think the gparted live cd would give better results? | 03:19 |
| zials | always a possibility | 03:20 |
| vidd | homa_rano, what are you trying to do? | 03:20 |
| homa_rano | vidd: I have a laptop that I'm trying to set up double booting windows and xubuntu, but gparted on the livecd sees the drive as all unallocated space, despite "sudo fdisk -l" correctly seeing the 4 partitions | 03:21 |
| vidd | when you ran gparted on the alt cd... did you choose "manually configure partitions"? | 03:22 |
| homa_rano | yes, it too did not see any partitions | 03:23 |
| homa_rano | yet I can still run windows on its partition, and windows sees the blank one I'm leaving for xubuntu | 03:23 |

| Ben_Cs | stuck on beige screen, with white small square in cornel | 08:41 |
| Ben_Cs | damn gnome. will run kde and xfce instead then | 08:43 |
| Ben_Cs | laserbeak43: the annoing thing about xfce is that it's empty on xubuntu install and it's feature full on Ubuntu install and then xubuntu-desktop install. | 08:44 |

| Thunderman | Can I install Xubuntu with floppys? | 04:39 |
| j1mc | Thunderman: no, there's no supported way to do that. | 04:43 |
| laserbeak43 | maybe with a floppy and an internet connection | 04:43 |
| laserbeak43 | but dont ask me how to do that... | 04:43 |
| Thunderman | I have also internet connection so is it possible? :) | 04:44 |
| j1mc | the xubuntu install image is almost 700mb. you would need tons of floppies. | 04:44 |
| Thunderman | If I just boot it wih floppy and then download from internet | 04:44 |
| j1mc | Thunderman: i take it that the computer you have doesn't have a cdrom drive? | 04:44 |
| Thunderman | I have CD-RW drive but i can't copy files | 04:45 |
| j1mc | i would take the hard drive that you want to install to, put it in a more capable computer... | 04:45 |
| Thunderman | Now I have Debian (GNome) wich is too heavy for my computer | 04:45 |
| j1mc | ... install xubuntu onto it there, and then put it in the regular computer you're going to use. | 04:46 |
| pleia2 | Thunderman: so don't use gnome? you can easily install xfce on debian too... | 04:46 |
| Thunderman | How? :) | 04:46 |
| pleia2 | or fluxbox, or a zillion other lightweight window managers | 04:46 |
| pleia2 | apt-get install xfce4 ? | 04:46 |
| j1mc | pleia2: yeah, that would work. | 04:46 |
| j1mc | apt-get install xfce4 | 04:47 |
| Thunderman | It's now downloading it | 04:47 |

| Thunderman | THey could be more lighter than this :/ But is the Fluxbow and openbox so pretty than XFCE, Gnome and KDE? :D | 05:04 |

| === loswillios [n=hbt@unaffiliated/loswillios] has left #xubuntu [] | ||
| KlrSpz | hrrmm | 06:04 |
| KlrSpz | If you have an existing Ubuntu, Kubuntu, or Edubuntu installation, it is possible to install Xubuntu and retain your current installation. To do so, just go into Synaptic (or Adept if you use Kubuntu) and install the xubuntu-desktop package. There you are! Next time you login, you can choose Xubuntu from the Session menu on the login screen. | 06:05 |
| KlrSpz | doesn't say anything about repos | 06:05 |
| TheSheep | !info xubuntu-desktop | 06:07 |
| ubotu | xubuntu-desktop: Xubuntu desktop system. In component main, is optional. Version 2.29 (feisty), package size 11 kB, installed size 40 kB | 06:07 |
| KlrSpz | ? wtf does that mean | 06:08 |
| TheSheep | KlrSpz: that means that the xubuntu-desktop package is in the main repository for feisty and is not installed by default | 06:09 |
| KlrSpz | yeah, but it's not finding it when i search for it, and select "All Available Applications" | 06:09 |

| test3r | So - when you are changing distros like KlrSpz was, there, and he's coming from another Desk Manager, is that part of the steps he found online, probably? Because when he reboots he's gana have to dump to TTY and hak a file, yes? | 06:36 |
| Ramla | err, you can choose which desktop environment to log on to in kdm/gdm? or what do you mean? | 06:38 |
| test3r | Well - I'm saying after he has two installed, after installing the xubunu-desk pack, he will have to tell GDM (probably) to switch itself off and tell kernel to use XFCE raw instead, Im guessing. | 06:39 |
| test3r | I wonder how one switches over the desk manager | 06:40 |
| test3r | buncha poop if u ask me he should gut it and start with 704 live cd hahahahaha | 06:41 |
| test3r | 704 xubuntu i mean | 06:41 |
| Ramla | why switch gdm off? | 06:46 |
| Ramla | xubuntu uses gdm | 06:46 |
| test3r | OK! I forgot. So maybe the setting is in GDM itself . You could tell GDM to use the xubuntu-desktop instead of what it Was using perhaps (the Ubuntu desk core which I forgot what its called) | 06:47 |
| Ramla | Yeah, the session can be chosen there in the logon screen | 06:48 |
