[03:24] ok, fine, the "tray" i'm referring to is called the "notification area" [03:24] meaning the program in question was using the freedesktop.org protocol rather than some gnome-specific stuff to appear in the panel [03:24] when i get done when my update...ill do the legwork for you [03:24] a tray icon is NOT the same thing as a panel applet - tray icons don't even have to be from a gtk app at all [03:26] http://polishlinux.org/stuff/screenshots/ubuntu/ubuntu_dapper_desktop_nautilus_libervisco.png - the gaim icon is a tray icon. the volume control is a panel applet - the difference is that all the tray icons will move as a group if you move the tray (which the grip thing to the left of it is also part of) [03:27] !gnome-netstatus-applet | Random832 [03:28] ok [03:28] Random832, im not an idiot either...you should do your own searches in synaptic...took 3 seconds to find it [03:28] i installed that before and it did not appear to install a program [03:28] you need to add it to you panel for it to work [03:29] I can run /usr/lib/gnome-netstatus/gnome-netstatus-applet and it doesn't put an icon anywhere [03:29] It also did not add anything to the list of things i can add to the panel [03:29] so i uninstalled it and asked in here [03:29] nevermind that the icon i am _looking_ for lives in the notification area / system tray, not directly on the panel [03:29] then try gnome-nettool [03:29] so it shouldn't _be_ something i can move independently of e.g. the gaim icon [03:30] http://kirsten.urbanzone.com/blog/uploads/misc/ubuntu_network_manager.png - it's the thing in this screenshot - do you happen to _know_ what program this is rather than simply guessing?

[03:40] Random833, did you get the info i posted? [03:41] Aaron_: so you actually want to know how xdm picks a resolution? [03:42] I really just want XDM and XFCE to stay in sync so I can use x11vnc. [03:42] Aaron_: i have the same problem for my htpc.. it starts at 1024x768, when my max res should be 800x600 [03:42] even though my xorg.conf file is set to only have a 800x600 mode [03:43] that's wacky.

[03:48] i think the xubuntu graphics are the best, of all the buntu's [03:48] odd... never had that problem; but there is a setting for default session [03:48] gdm disconnects vnc after you log in, you can connect right back up, but it disconnects.

[05:25] KlrSpz: so i should just change it, save it, and reboot? [05:26] oh np [05:26] i haven't ever seen a computer in the past 10 years not support 24 bit though [05:27] KlrSpz: so is there something else we should look at? i know we looked at some /var/log today, but i don't remember if it was the same issue :( [05:28] KlrSpz: that's what happens when your brain shrinks [05:29] KlrSpz: well, guess i could just go change it, and if that don't solve it, change it back, huh? [05:30] so keep it at 24, save the file, and do the 3 finger salute (CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE) to restart X, then use speedyshare to upload your /var/log/Xorg.0.log [05:31] you mean i have to save it and restart because i already opened it with nano? === mikubuntu is a dumdum, has to confirm every move === litlebuda [n=linux@87-196-95-130.net.novis.pt] has joined #xubuntu [05:36] KlrSpz: nano doesn't have a SAVE in the file menu === michaelpo [n=presario@60.51.16.93] has left #xubuntu [] [05:38] KlrSpz: help, i'm stuck ... don't see how to save in nano === bigfuzzyjesus_ [n=bigfuzzy@unaffiliated/bigfuzzyjesus] has joined #xubuntu [05:44] sorry i've been doing all kidns of stuff [05:44] mikubuntu: do CTRL+X [05:44] then Y [05:44] then ENTER [05:45] KlrSpz: k, lemme try [05:47] KlrSpz: said command not found, then everything disappeared. did i just fry my xorg? === BellagioSampler [i=Hugo@wm118-223.resnet.wm.edu] has joined #xubuntu [05:51] KlrSpz: do you think i could have just screwed it up royally? [05:53] KlrSpz: says bash: y: command not found [05:54] mikubuntu, what are you trying to do.... you just told bash to run y [05:55] Jester45: KlrSpz said to do ctrl plus x, then y, then enter in nano editing xorg.conf to save, i don't know if it did it or if i fried it.... [05:57] after nano is open and you edit it press ctrl x [05:57] it will ask to say [05:57] save* [05:57] thats when you press y [05:57] Jester45: should i sudo nano xorg again? [05:57] yea [05:57] Jester45: is it *too late*? [05:58] it looks like you allready exited nano [05:58] Jester45: arrrrggghhh, so now what do i do? i screwed? [05:58] o and i dont know if you where the person but someone rebooted to let the settings get changed [05:59] Jester45: no i haven't rebooted [05:59] but you can change them with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [05:59] Jester45: do that now? [06:00] **it will close all windows giving no time to save [06:00] if you have changed your settings [06:00] Jester45: no, i hadn't made any changes [06:01] are you stuck in text only? or do you have a gui [06:02] Jester45: i uploaded the xorg.conf file to speedyshare, can i, or do i need to retrieve it? i wish i would have just left well enough alone ... [06:02] i dont know what that is [06:02] speedyshare.com like pastebin [06:03] Jester45: http://www.speedyshare.com/489764775.html [06:04] ok... what about it [06:04] is that the edited version? === BellagioSampler [i=Hugo@wm118-223.resnet.wm.edu] has joined #xubuntu [06:07] Jester45: no, i never did edit it, that is, i never changed anything, but i did go in with sudo nano === xjkx [n=x@201009005132.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #xubuntu [06:07] ok so now you can edit the file from in nano [06:07] I changed my mouse cursor to a red one, it appears just sometimes, there are times i have this white one, whats wrong? [06:08] just use it like a text editor [06:08] If i put the cursor on gaim, its red, if i put the cursor on thunar its white ;o [06:09] Jester45: thats when KlrSpz said to do the control x, then y, then enter, and i newbie, all the output disappeared, i don't know if it saved or not or if i fried it [06:09] see? [06:09] well... you can allways open it again and see if the changes are there [06:10] Jester45: i think nano closed. that's what i din't know, if i can open it again? sokay to redo sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf? [06:11] yes [06:11] if the changes are there then you saved it [06:11] Jester45: ok, i check [06:13] Jester45: seems to be as i left it. so will changing the default depth from 24 to 16 get my screenres to 1024? [06:14] no.. depth is how many colors [06:14] resolution is the resolution [06:15] Jester45: just changing that today on an older than this one dell cpi lat d300xt was enough to fix screenres ... thingy walked me through it; he said the vid card in that one wouldn't support 24 [06:16] Jester45: that's why i'm messing with this one, because when i saw how crisp that screen got, i realized i must not be getting optimum res on this lat d600 here [06:16] what is the res [06:17] resolution [06:17] lower the bit then, i run mine at 16 to save memory [06:17] i know what i was asking what is it running at [06:17] ok, then to save? tell me again plz how? [06:18] oh, i guess at 800 [06:18] ctrl + x [06:18] then y [06:18] letters a little fuzzy, not too tight [06:19] ok, then after save, reboot? [06:19] and... resolution is 2 numbers 800x600 is normal when the first is 800 [06:19] no [06:19] sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [06:19] much faster than reboot [06:20] mikubuntu, remebmer only windows has to reboot to change a setting [06:20] should i go make the change, save, and come back here? [06:20] if you want [06:20] ok, i try [06:23] after i did 'y' and enter, then nano says: file name to write: etc/x11/xorg.conf do i need to enter something else [06:23] no [06:23] could anyone try changing the mose cursor ? i chose the red one but it works only to some window (such as gaim) on some others its still white, i wanna know if its just here [06:24] Jester45: so i just x out and go to terminal again for restart? [06:24] arrg [06:24] dont restart [06:24] it takes forever and isnt to nice on your harddrive [06:25] use sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [06:25] i din't mean restart, i mean the command you gave me there [06:26] i don't need to send it 'to files' or anything? bunch of options show at the bottom of nano [06:27] no [06:27] ctrl x exits [06:27] but if you made changes it askes if you want to save [06:27] ok, i go try, but no, control x din't seem to exit a minute ago ... ? [06:28] yes, thats what it did [06:29] but the whole file still sitting there, i'm just wanting to be clear if all i have to do is close the window and then go to terminal for sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [06:29] yes [06:29] ok [06:29] if you removed the file then xorg wouldnt know how to config [06:29] Does anyone want to give me some feedback on the current new-xubuntu-website in-progress?

[06:40] seems to be common misconception === Jester45 agrees [06:41] Jester45: well, that command din't restart me, it just went to a black screen and wouldn't clear, so i powered down and rebooted. my screenresolution none improved tho .. dang. [06:41] people allways think wait you use xubuntu? and thats a fast computer === xork nods [06:42] it's just the least bloated, yet still complete DE [06:42] i could care less about the bloat or lack of [06:42] i just like it [06:42] and it is nice that its faster than the rest [06:42] i like the snappiness [06:43] KDE just felt like a slow moving thing [06:43] even on a blazing computer [06:43] I'd use it even if it was heavier [06:43] i like it has it's own stripped down compositor [06:43] i think its the idea that it has gui tools but yet lets you configure things [06:43] yeah.. that's a blessing [06:43] that keeps me using it [06:44] kde is like well.. there are defualts but to get it working how you like you need to spend 10 days configing each app [06:44] and gnome says well we have option 1 and 2... what? you want a 3rd thats to much [06:45] o and by the way both options are slow [06:45] sounds like my experiences too ;) [06:45] these things should be on the site! [06:45] so people don't think it's.. just ubuntu for slow comps [06:45] they should reword to [06:46] i kind of wish ubuntu would pick xfce as it's flagship [06:46] i dont [06:46] then it would make a mess of it [06:46] lets add this and this [06:47] people that use ubuntu just want more and more options [06:47] well, improvement's good.. [06:47] the menu editor [06:47] seems to be something a lot of people have trouble with [06:47] the only thing i want is xfwm4 to be able to be just an decorator so i could use compiz core [06:47] that'd be nice [06:49] does anyone know if xfce5 is comming up soon?

[11:02] i dont care about them === TheSheep ate an eye [11:02] TheSheep: ah :) and those are great?
