[01:27] <Jester45> so... it booted?
[01:27] <LaW> no error msg no nothing just makes that
[01:27] <LaW> noise
[01:27] <LaW> yeah it booted
[01:27] <Jester45> is there a mouse
[01:27] <LaW> yeah
[01:27] <LaW> i can move it around just fine
[01:28] <Jester45> and what was the noise... did it come from inside the computer and just beep or was it from the speakers
[01:28] <LaW> but i don't see no tools no nothing
[01:28] <Jester45> press alt+f2
[01:28] <LaW> it coming from the speakers
[01:28] <Jester45> and type xfce4-panel then press run
[01:29] <LaW> hold on brb
[01:31] <KayN> jerter45 its that guy who told you he'd be right bacl
[01:31] <KayN> back
[01:31] <Jester45> o
[01:32] <Jester45> so does pressing alt +f2 open anything?
[01:32] <KayN> i was on the computer that i had the issue with
[01:32] <KayN> i have to load ubuntu back up
[01:33] <KayN> you know what another thing i have to use the live acpi=off to get it to boot all the way up to the point i am talking to otherwise it doens't wor
[01:34] <Jester45> i work with a pc like that
[01:34] <Jester45> real pain when your only accessing via ssh
[01:35] <KayN> if i don't do it that way it get stuck at config network interface
[01:37] <KayN> so when it loads up and starts to make that noise press alt+f2
[01:37] <Jester45> once your at the desktop
[01:39] <KayN> yeah that didn't work
[01:39] <Jester45> it didnt open anything?
[01:39] <KayN> no
[01:41] <KayN> it didn't do anything
[01:43] <KayN> anyone there
[01:47] <Jester45> hey tommy
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> hello
[01:49] <Jester45> hi
[01:49] <The-Kernel> hey
[01:49] <The-Kernel> school tomorrow
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> what's up?
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> yeh?
[01:49] <Ben_Cs> i have a month and a half till next semester
[01:49] <Jester45> im converting a dv dto animated gif :)
[01:49] <The-Kernel> Ben_Cs: where do you live?
[01:49] <Jester45> dvd*
[01:50] <Ben_Cs> got today an ipod shuffle. what a cool little gadget :)
[01:50] <Ben_Cs> The-Kernel: Israel
[01:50] <Ben_Cs> banshee is best for ipod right?
[01:50] <The-Kernel> Ben_Cs: THE PROMISE LAND?!?! Yeah that's cool
[01:51] <The-Kernel> gkpod and Amorok work fine
[01:51] <Ben_Cs> yup, the promised land :)
[01:51] <Ben_Cs> you mean gtkpod?
[01:52] <The-Kernel> yea
[01:52] <The-Kernel> sorry
[01:52] <Ben_Cs> k
[01:52] <Ben_Cs> googled it
[02:04] <Ben_Cs> The-Kernel: so your choice for syncing ipod is amarok?
[02:18] <Aorion> ello
[02:19] <Aorion> sorry to bother, but i'm trying to install zsnes on an older laptop (not this one i'm using to chat) but the other laptop does not have the internet
[02:19] <Aorion> what is the best way to resolve package dependencies?
[02:20] <Aorion> i keep trying to run it, it give me a list of libraries and says (core dumped) and simply refuses to run and doesnt give an error when I run in xfce
[02:21] <Aorion> i tried to install sdl like it says to, but the sdl install tries to overwrite the sdl... that is already there, so it isnt the problem
[02:22] <Aorion> and normally i have good success on a third computer that uses kubuntu with adept, etc. because adept resolves all of the packages
[02:22] <Aorion> my problem is that it cant connect to the internet, so i cant use adept or synaptic, and there is no place to get a super-package of all required files
[02:23] <Aorion> >< see, im in a tight spot
[03:00] <Jester45> Aorion, why not manually install
[03:11] <Mlittle> anyone in?
[03:11] <Mlittle> i took the admin off my account and can't seem to get it back
[03:12] <Mlittle> seems I don't have the privledges
[03:12] <Mlittle> but it's the only account
[03:28] <Jester45> Mlittle, you took off the sudo rights? if so then reboot and select recovery mode at the grub menu
[03:28] <Mlittle> what's the grub menu?
[03:29] <Jester45> it shows before the xubunut loading image
[03:30] <Jester45> says loading grub stage 1.5 ....
[03:30] <Mlittle> ok, and I hit a hot key or something?
[03:30] <Jester45> then might give a press esc for menu in 3 ... 2... 1.. then boots
[03:30] <Jester45> esc
[03:31] <Mlittle> cool cool, i'll let you know if it works
[03:31] <Jester45> you should beable to just hold it down
[03:31] <Jester45> might make the internal speaker beep alot
[03:31] <Mlittle> haha we'll see, thanks
[03:32] <Eldre2> Excuse me, I'm attempting to install Enemy Territory 2.60, but I can't find a path which I have permission to use as my Symbolic Link thing.
[03:32] <Jester45> what do you need in your path
[03:33] <Eldre2> I need to put my "symbolic links" there.  Is that what you mean?
[03:33] <Eldre2> Actually, not "put" them there, "create" them there.
[03:34] <cheeseboy> how do i hide all the stuff on my desktop?
[03:34] <Jester45> but what you are trying to point to. you have permission in ~/
[03:34] <Jester45> aka /home/usename/
[03:34] <Eldre2> Checking...
[03:35] <Jester45> cheeseboy, please be a bit more specific about this "stuff"
[03:35] <Eldre2> I'm trying to put them in ~/bin
[03:35] <Jester45> ok
[03:35] <cheeseboy> Jester45: hide all the icons so my desktop looks empty
[03:36] <Eldre2> Because the default was /usr/local/bin, but that wouldn't give me permission either.
[03:36] <Jester45> cheeseboy, you could remove the stuff and turn off the device icons via desktop settings
[03:37] <Jester45> Eldre2, your user by defualt only can write stuff to ~/ anything outside of that it cant
[03:37] <cheeseboy> thnx
[03:38] <Jester45> Eldre2, so... couldnt you just move the stuff on your desktop to ~/bin
[03:38] <Eldre2> Thanks Jester45.  I just sent it to ~!
[03:41] <Jester45> i know symbolic links are cool and fun but they arent the anser to everything
[03:41] <Jester45> brb
[03:56] <Mlittle> it worked!
[03:57] <Jester45> welcome
[03:59] <Mlittle> but i'm still having trouble gettin my widescreen recognized on this ancient computer
[04:03] <Jester45> try running /usr/bin/xvidtune
[04:03] <Jester45> and mess a bit with the wider option
[04:03] <tonyyarusso> sudo apt-get new-computer :P
[04:04] <Mlittle> new computer on wednesday i hope
[04:04] <Jester45> seg fault
[04:04] <Mlittle> kk, reboot
[04:04] <Jester45> :)
[04:04] <Jester45> sudo faster processor
[04:09] <Kr4t05> Is there anyone here?
[04:10] <Jester45> !anyone
[04:10] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:21] <Kr4t05> I'm having issues with eth0.
[04:22] <Kr4t05> I'm using a Dell Latitude LS laptop with Xubuntu Feisty, and eth0 worked fine at first, but it's stopped working for no readily apparant reason.
[04:23] <Kr4t05> I haven't changed and network settings, haven't installed any updates, nothing.
[04:23] <Jester45> have you tried disabling then enableing it
[04:23] <Kr4t05> Jester45: No... One second.
[04:23] <Jester45> what about the network cable
[04:23] <Kr4t05> Jester45: I only have one network cable available... But, one second.
[04:24] <Jester45> does it have a connected light ?
[04:31] <cheeseboy> why cant i change my password ?
[04:31] <cheeseboy> (current) UNIX password:
[04:31] <cheeseboy> You must wait longer to change your password
[04:31] <cheeseboy> passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
[04:31] <cheeseboy> passwd: password unchanged
[04:34] <SuprUsr> Jester45: Sorry about that, I was stealing^H^H^H^H^H borrowing the ethernet cable from my parent's PC.
[04:35] <Kr4t05> Jester45: Disabled... Enabled... Testing.
[04:36] <Kr4t05> No dice.
[04:37] <Jester45> cheeseboy, what are you running
[04:38] <cheeseboy> passwd
[04:39] <Jester45> huumm
[04:39] <Jester45> did you just make the user
[04:39] <cheeseboy> no
[04:39] <Kr4t05> Eh...
[04:39] <cheeseboy> my sister got my pass so i want to chnge it
[04:41] <Kr4t05> Jester45: Any ideas?
[04:42] <Jester45> got a live cd?
[04:42] <Kr4t05> Jester45: Yeah, it worked fine in DSL.
[04:42] <Kr4t05> And Windows. :/
[04:42] <Kr4t05> That rules out hardware failiure.
[04:44] <Kr4t05> Ah!
[04:44] <Kr4t05> I just went into tty1, and I saw a huge debug message.
[04:44] <Kr4t05> Something about "eth0: transmit timed out, tx_status 00 status e000.
[04:45] <Kr4t05> Followed  by a transmit list.
[04:49] <Kr4t05> Also, boot times are abnormally slow.
[04:53] <cheeseboy> whats the problem ?
[04:56] <Kr4t05> the wired ethernet on my laptop doesn't work properly. :/
[04:57] <Kr4t05> It's a 3Com 3c905C-TX/TX-M
[04:58] <cheeseboy> what kernel ?
[04:58] <Kr4t05> 2.6.20-15-generic
[04:59] <rici> could it be a problem with whatever you're plugging the cable into at the other end?
[04:59] <Kr4t05> Shouldn't be.
[04:59] <Kr4t05> This setup worked fine before.
[04:59] <cheeseboy> Kr4t05 update that
[04:59] <Kr4t05> cheeseboy: Update the laptop?
[05:00] <cheeseboy> Kr4t05 the kernel
[05:00] <Kr4t05> Em... Impossible without net access? Or is there some magic voodoo that I'm unaware of.
[05:00] <cheeseboy> Kr4t05 you have a pendrive ?
[05:01] <Kr4t05> Yep. 512MB should be enough?
[05:01] <cheeseboy> ya
[05:01] <cheeseboy> download the debs
[05:02] <Jester45> packages.ubuntu.com
[05:03] <Jester45> then
[05:03] <Jester45> gdebi package1.deb package2.deb
[05:03] <Jester45> etc
[05:04] <Kr4t05> Right.
[05:05] <Kr4t05> What package should i get?
[05:05] <Kr4t05> linux-image-2.6.20...
[05:05] <Kr4t05> Right?
[05:06] <Kr4t05> -16-generic, of course.
[05:06] <cheeseboy> http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/base/linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic
[05:06] <cheeseboy> and all the dependencies
[05:07] <Jester45> i think you need 2 others
[05:07] <Kr4t05> > You have searched for the contents of linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic in feisty, architecture i386. Can't find that package, at least not in that distribution and on that architecture.
[05:07] <cheeseboy> and http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[05:08] <Kr4t05> This is.... Frustrating...
[05:08] <Kr4t05> Oh.. Wrong link...
[05:09] <Balaams_Miracle> Yes, wrong links can be very frustrating :-))
[05:10] <Kr4t05> coreutils, right?
[05:10] <Kr4t05> Nevermind... I have current version.
[05:15] <rici> sounds like possibly this bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/109629
[05:15] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 109629 in linux-source-2.6.20 "3com NIC stops working after some time" [Undecided,Confirmed] 
[05:16] <rici> Kr4t05: the message towards the bottom from john_coach sounds like it might be a hint.
[05:16] <Kr4t05> rici: Thanks, I add my 2 cents, then.
[05:17] <rici> that's suggesting that the problem is failed autonegotiation
[05:18] <Kr4t05> Yeah...
[05:20] <rici> you can check that with ifconfig, see if the setting is plausible
[05:20] <Kr4t05> Where do I look?
[05:21] <Kr4t05> RX bytes:360 TX bytes:60
[05:22] <Kr4t05> Is that it?
[05:22] <rici> no, that's a count which should be a lot higher
[05:22] <rici> up a couple of lines, there are RX and TX packets with error counts
[05:22] <rici> the error counts should be 0
[05:22] <Kr4t05> TX packets:1 errors:177
[05:22] <Kr4t05> That make sense.
[05:22] <rici> right, that's bad. but we already knew that :)
[05:22] <rici> hang on a sec
[05:23] <Kr4t05> Thanks.
[05:23] <Kr4t05> Should I go ahead and update the kernel while I'm at it? Or should I wait?
[05:24] <rici> you can update the kernel, sure :)
[05:25] <rici> ah, here it is
[05:25] <rici> sudo ethtool eth0
[05:26] <rici> shows speed and duplex
[05:26] <Kr4t05> Yar
[05:26] <Kr4t05> Speed: 100Mb/s
[05:26] <Kr4t05> Duplex: Full
[05:26] <rici> what's it plugged into=
[05:26] <rici> on the other end, i mean.
[05:26] <rici> does it say "Link detected: yes" ?
[05:27] <rici> (last line)
[05:27] <Kr4t05> A XyZEL Prestige 643 4-port DSL modem.
[05:28] <Kr4t05> And, Link Detected: yes.
[05:29] <rici> gee, i think that's the same as mine
[05:29] <rici> :)
[05:29] <Kr4t05> How about that?
[05:30] <Kr4t05> Hrm... My flash drive isn't being detected... Strange...
[05:35] <Kr4t05> rici: Any more ideas?
[05:36] <rici> sorry, i was mucking about with my zyxel, trying to find where you set autoneg
[05:36] <rici> but 100/full should be right
[05:36] <rici> did you try plugging it into a different zyxel port?
[05:36] <Kr4t05> Yep.
[05:36] <rici> did you try turning the zyxel on and off?
[05:37] <Kr4t05> My desktop is on port 4, which is the same cable I've been using with this laptop before.
[05:37] <Kr4t05> Now, I'm on port 1.
[05:37] <Kr4t05> Hrm... No I haven't.
[05:37] <rici> i used to have this problem with mine where it would stop working after large downloads
[05:37] <Kr4t05> Let me try that... One second.
[05:37] <rici> turning it on and off fixed it. eventually i did a flash upgrade
[05:40] <Kr4t05> rici: No fix.
[05:40] <rici> oh, well. sorry, that's the extent of my experiences
[05:40] <Kr4t05> Meh...
[05:41] <Kr4t05> And, I can't update the kernel because my flash drive isn't detected properly.
[05:41] <Kr4t05> The USB port on the laptop is a USB 1.x poer.
[05:41] <Kr4t05> port*
[05:42] <Kr4t05> But, the drive is rated for 2.0.
[05:43] <Kr4t05> When the device is plugged in, lsusb sits there and does nothing.
[05:43] <Kr4t05> When it's not, it lits the port.
[05:43] <Kr4t05> Great...
[05:43] <Kr4t05> But I don't wanna use Windows on this thing! ><
[05:46] <rici> hmm, i guess the command is:  eth driver status <chan-name>
[05:46] <rici> zyxel's are kinda mysterious
[05:47] <Kr4t05> Huh?
[05:47] <rici> the command-line language
[05:48] <Kr4t05> Oh...
[05:49] <Kr4t05> Well, I'm clinging to this kernel as a last hope.
[05:49] <rici> it would be good to know what the zyxel thinks the line is negotiated as
[05:49] <Kr4t05> Burning a CD, as my flash drive does not like this...
[06:21] <Kr4t05> I think I know where the hang is in my boot times.
[06:22] <rici> yeah?
[06:22] <Kr4t05> I changed the boot in my menu.lst to verbose.
[06:22] <rici> and what does it verbosely tell you?
[06:22] <Kr4t05> And, it keeps going on about hda: DMA timeout errors and cache flushes not supported.
[06:23] <rici> ah
[06:23] <rici> this is an old laptop?
[06:23] <Kr4t05> A bit.
[06:23] <Kr4t05> Intel Pentium 3.
[06:24] <Kr4t05> Use hdparm to disable DMA on hda?
[06:24] <rici> sounds like a plan
[06:24] <Kr4t05> Good... One down...
[06:24] <rici> does it give you an eth0 error on boot?
[06:24] <Kr4t05> Not that I can see.
[06:24] <Kr4t05> I'll check the syslog when I'm booted up
[06:25] <rici> then setting irqpoll probably won't help
[06:25] <rici> but you never know
[06:25] <Kr4t05> I might change the module, also.
[06:25] <Kr4t05> It also hangs on Preparing restricted drivers.
[06:25] <Kr4t05> Not sure why.
[06:25] <rici> nvidia?
[06:25] <rici> what restricted driver do you have?
[06:26] <Kr4t05> None.
[06:26] <Kr4t05> My graphics chipset is an old generic thing.
[06:26] <Kr4t05> NeoMagic.
[06:26] <Kr4t05> Which has a xserver driver.
[06:26] <rici> maybe that's the restricted driver. i've never heard of it
[06:26] <rici> which means nothing.
[06:27] <rici> i get annoyed with ubuntu complaining about the nvidia driver.
[06:27] <rici> but what the heck. it works.
[06:34] <Kr4t05> Woah...
[06:35] <Kr4t05> Dunno what I did, but bootup was much quicker.
[06:35] <Kr4t05> Didn't disable DMA or anything... So... I dunno.
[06:40] <Kr4t05> OMG IT WORKS!!!
[06:40] <Kr4t05> I dunno what I did!
[06:40] <Kr4t05> Maybe the irqpoll did fix it.
[06:42] <rici> did you add that?
[06:42] <Kr4t05> Yep/
[06:44] <rici> maybe. hope so. good luck.
[06:48] <Kr4t05> Thanks.
[06:51] <Kr4t05> Okay... This may sound like blasphamy, but I want to remove xfce and it's dependancies and replace it with fluxbox. I did't want to install Fluxbuntu because of some of the stuff they include is more than I need.
[06:52] <Kr4t05> Hrm... Nevermind.
[07:09] <aboyousif> does this channel log anywhere online ?
[07:10] <mikubuntu> aboyousif: you can log a view yourself with chatzilla, i don't know about gaim or xchat
[07:11] <aboyousif> mikubuntu, yes i do that but i ask if there is a public log
[07:12] <mikubuntu> aboyousif: have to ask an op i guess
[07:12] <mikubuntu> Kr4t05: like what kind of stuff that flux includes?
[07:13] <Kr4t05> Hrm... Not sure off the top of my head, but I've heard many people complain that Fluxbuntu has too many auxillary packages.
[07:14] <mikubuntu> Kr4t05: oh, i thought the whole idea with flux was to run lite; i want to learn more about it
[08:34] <xjkx> i want the latest xfce :<
[08:34] <s|k> use ratpoison
[08:34] <s|k> :/
[08:34] <xjkx> ;o
[08:35] <xjkx> i have problems with this version, when firefox freezes it takes my start menu away and i have to add again, you think if i install the latest from xfce.org on the binary package for debian it will work? :>
[08:36] <s|k> I don't think that's xfce's fault
[08:36] <s|k> and no xfce gets more bloated with each additional version
[08:36] <s|k> I say regress!
[08:37] <Kr4t05> How do I install new themes and icon sets into XFCE?
[08:37] <xjkx> aw then they are adding new stuff :p yea i know, the simplest is better anyway
[08:39] <Kr4t05> Anyone?
[08:39] <xjkx> Kr4t05: my xfce isnt in english, but you may see some setting/configuration menu in "menu xfce"
[08:40] <xjkx> then user's interface
[08:40] <Kr4t05> Right...
[08:40] <Kr4t05> But, I don't see any way to install new stuff from XFCE-Look.org
[08:41] <xjkx> they teach how to in their themes
[08:41] <xjkx> the place i said is to set it
[08:46] <Kr4t05> What if I get a theme that doesn't tell me how to install it?
[10:16] <Chriswaterguy_aw> Does anybody know how to install Sunbird in Linux?
[10:17] <Chriswaterguy_aw> the release notes say:
[10:18] <Chriswaterguy_aw>     Extract the tarball in the directory where you want to install Sunbird:
[10:18] <Chriswaterguy_aw>           tar -xjvf sunbird-0.5.en-US.linux-i686.tar.gz
[10:18] <Chriswaterguy_aw>     This will create a sunbird subdirectory of that directory.
[10:18] <Chriswaterguy_aw> The problem is... which directory should I put it in, and how do I specify it? (Sorry, the answers might be obvious but I'm only semi-geeky)
[10:22] <aboyousif> Chriswaterguy, i think there is a deb for sunbird
[10:22] <aboyousif> or you can use this source to compile it
[10:22] <aboyousif> just extract it to any place you have write permission and then compile and install
[10:27] <Chriswaterguy> compile? This is not meant for newbies I take it.
[10:28] <Chriswaterguy> I don't know how to get the deb... still finding my feet in Linux. Can use Synaptics and the Add/Remove facility - they're fairly straightforward.

[10:30] <warbler> Chriswaterguy: The directory  most apps that are not kernel related go to /opt - that would be the best one - then cd /opt/ - will change the directory you are in with the terminal - then - tar -xjvf...etc

[12:30] <google1010> hey guys
[12:32] <google1010> anyone here lol
[12:34] <predaeus> !ask | google1010
[12:34] <ubotu> google1010: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:35] <google1010> it is offtopic though
[12:35] <predaeus> !offtopic
[12:35] <ubotu> #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:35] <google1010> but no1 is talking in there lo
[12:35] <google1010> :0
[12:35] <predaeus> there is also #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:35] <predaeus> i wonder why there is even a xubuntu-offtopic...
[12:36] <google1010> have you heard of Death Cab for Cutie?
[12:36] <predaeus> I think that is a band.
[12:36] <google1010> yeah
[12:36] <google1010> do you like them?
[12:36] <predaeus> I don't remember listening to them, so I don't know.
[12:37] <google1010> ok :)
[12:43] <google1010> has anybody here heard of OiNK?
[12:44] <pleia2> google1010: you were already asked once, please stay on topic in here
[12:44] <google1010> ok
[12:44] <google1010> will Oink work with ubuntu
[12:45] <google1010> :)
[12:45] <google1010> xubuntu
[12:45] <pleia2> oink is just a website, torrents work in ubuntu
[12:45] <google1010> what is a good torrent program?
[12:45] <pleia2> I just use bittorrent-curses
[12:45] <google1010> ok
[12:46] <google1010> are you a member of oink?
[12:54] <mikubuntu> elkubuntu has a puny mind and should be banished from the sphere.
[12:55] <TheSheep> !offtopic | mikubuntu
[12:55] <ubotu> mikubuntu: #xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:58] <mikubuntu> TheSheep: ok, i've already been accused of being disruptive, so i won't press the point.
[01:31] <aboyousif> seen alnokta
[01:44] <Pirate_Hunter> hmm what an empty channel, ubuntu is more live than this and look at the idle ppl
[01:49] <Win`a`2> hi
[01:49] <Win`a`2> Wanted to verify the downloaded iso of xubuntu, but I cannot find md5sums?!
[01:50] <Win`a`2> ok, found it :)
[02:22] <phpusmo> I need help getting the correct video drivers for my pc
[02:23] <predaeus> phpusmo, what brand?
[02:23] <predaeus> nvidia, ati, intel, ... ?
[02:24] <phpusmo> Not sure, how can I check?
[02:24] <phpusmo> lspci?
[02:24] <predaeus> yea probably
[02:25] <phpusmo> VIA Technologies
[02:25] <aboyousif> phpusmo, well i think feisty has an application tells you if you need a properiatry driver or not
[02:26] <phpusmo> i'm on xcfe 4
[02:26] <phpusmo> xfce 4*
[02:31] <phpusmo> hello?
[02:35] <predaeus> phpusmo, can you paste the output of lspic here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and the link in this channel plz.
[02:35] <predaeus> sorry lspci
[02:36] <phpusmo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36311/
[02:39] <phpusmo> any luck on that?
[02:40] <predaeus> hm I don't know about the via s3, looks like there is xorg packages for the s3 and for s3virge and for via in the repos. But I don't know which one you need. Try asking in #ubuntu too as drivers are the same as xubuntu's.
[02:40] <predaeus> and there is usually more people there.
[02:41] <phpusmo> okay thanks
[02:44] <jono> hi all - could someone update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Teams with the Xubuntu entry
[02:49] <warbler> *maybe
[05:08] <Chriswaterguy> my upper panel suddenly isn't auto-hiding. I've turned auto-hide off and on, and still doesn't hide. Is this a bug? And is it fixable short of a restart?
[05:52] <Chriswaterguy> any suggestions for a program to bulk resize images?
[05:53] <Chriswaterguy> Or a script (I found one using Nautilus script... can I easily make that work on Xubuntu?)
[05:59] <Arkh> Chriswaterguy, check out imagemagick suite's mogrify
[06:00] <mike6546> I can't get my Creative Audigy 2 ZS working :(
[06:01] <mike6546> none of the help topics have helped either
[06:06] <Chriswaterguy> Arkh: Thanks. I've installed imagemagick, but how do I run it?
[06:44] <Arkh> Chriswaterguy, http://www.imagemagick.org/script/mogrify.php
[07:00] <Chriswaterguy> Arkh: Thanks - looks good! I wonder if there's a way to right-click a folder and run the command in that folder (rather than having to use the terminal)
[07:01] <Arkh> I'm sure there is, I just don't remember it right now
[07:02] <Chriswaterguy> Arkh: Oh well, much to learn... I'm still a Linux newbie...
[10:02] <cellofellow> I think something is wrong. I just burned a Xubuntu ISO, and I put the disk back in the drive and it still appears on the desktop as a CDR instead of a CDROM.
[10:03] <The-Kernel> ?
[10:03] <The-Kernel> restart
[10:06] <kalikiana> Restart isn't supposed to make any difference.
[10:06] <The-Kernel> no
[10:06] <cellofellow> Nor does it.
[10:06] <The-Kernel> leave the cd in and restart...see if it boots.
[10:06] <cellofellow> I don't plan on installing on this box. It already has xubuntu on.
[10:07] <cellofellow> And it booted in VirtualBox OK.
[10:07] <kalikiana> If the cd boots in vistualBox it must be okay I suppose.
[10:08] <cellofellow> this is the second time I've burned this image and been afraid it didn't come out right.
[10:08] <cellofellow> The image is fine, I ran the md5sum on it.
[10:11] <The-Kernel> what speed do you burn it at?
[10:11] <cellofellow> first time 4x, this time 2x.
[10:12] <cellofellow> gnomebaker automatically selects a low speed for ISO's.
[10:19] <The-Kernel> bye all
[10:20] <KlrSpz> anyone have any solutions for mplayer giving an error on startup about the gnome_screensaver_control() (and how to make it actually stop the xscreensaver daemon from starting up)
[10:21] <cellofellow> I think you have to build it with an xscreensaver instead of gnomescreensaver option.
[10:21] <cellofellow> I could be wrong.
[10:22] <jbrouhard> Hey guys.. what's the default terminal that ships with xubuntu?
[10:22] <jbrouhard> the one off applicaitons -> Accessories ?
[10:22] <cellofellow> jbrouhard: xfce4-terminal.
[10:22] <jbrouhard> Thanks
[10:22] <jbrouhard> trying to make a desktop icon
[10:22] <cellofellow> jbrouhard: a good general-purpose term.
[10:23] <cellofellow> jbrouhard: the command I use with launchers is Terminal, which links to that.
[10:23] <Arkh> Terminal works as well
[10:24] <KlrSpz> cellofellow: I didn't build it, I got it from the ubuntu repo
[10:24] <cellofellow> KlrSpz: yeah, I figured. :)
[10:24] <KlrSpz> I'm missing gentoo for reasons like this :S
[10:24] <cellofellow> I didn't build it either. I just live with it.
[10:24] <cellofellow> KlrSpz: there IS apt-source
[10:24] <KlrSpz> does it actually turn off the screensaver?
[10:24] <cellofellow> ummm
[10:24] <KlrSpz> hmm.. haven't messed with that before,  I might look into that
[10:25] <davmor2> hello people.  I think I have located an error with today's iso.  try accessing the screensaver
[10:25] <cellofellow> I never checked recently.
[10:25] <cellofellow> davmor2: go to #xubuntu-devel for stuff about Gutsy.
[10:25] <davmor2> ta
[10:25] <cellofellow> or #xubuntu+1
[10:25] <cellofellow> !gutsy
[10:25] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[10:30] <ShackJack> Hi all - install xubuntu on a 64MB thinkpad (taking - forever)... It's sort of paused on xubuntu-desktop with little blips from the HD every now and then -- is that normal... just wrapping up the installation?
[10:30] <ShackJack> * Paused at "Select & INstall software" progress bar - xubuntu-desktop...
[10:32] <ward_> can xubuntu be run on a 150Mhz P2 ? (a friend asked this)
[10:33] <ward_> and 96MB ram
[10:33] <ward_> (just enough to install form the regular CD :-D)
[10:34] <cellofellow> very slowly
[10:34] <cellofellow> well, rather slowly
[10:34] <cellofellow> enough ram, not quite enough CPU.
[10:35] <ward_> cellofellow, any other distro that still runs good on such a machine? he wants to make a server of it
[10:35] <cellofellow> server? should be OK if you turn off X.
[10:35] <cellofellow> Just use Ubuntu Server.
[10:37] <ward_> cellofellow, omg yeah thanx, i didnt realise that x was not neccesary
[10:37] <cellofellow> :-)
[10:37] <cellofellow> X is not included in Ubuntu Server.
[10:37] <yesway> hey guys. have you already tried new superfast opera? :)
[10:38] <cellofellow> new superfast opera?
[10:38] <yesway> yup 9.5
[10:38] <cellofellow> nope
[10:38] <yesway> you have to ;)
[10:39] <ShackJack> Has anyone successfully installed xubuntu on a 64MB machine like the xubuntu page says? Mine is stuck @ 85%...
[10:39] <cellofellow> ShackJack: yeah, I've done it on a 64MB.
[10:40] <cellofellow> ShackJack: wait it out.
[10:40] <ShackJack> cellofellow: O.K. You happen to know if it's normal to pause there... It pasued on some other think which forum post said you could kill and installation continued on it's way...
[10:40] <ShackJack> (Some dictionary thing)
[10:41] <cellofellow> every machine is different. Not sure what's up honestly.
[10:42] <ShackJack> cellofellow: Ohh.. wait - it just says "cleaning up" -- guess it was thinking...
[10:42] <ShackJack> :)
[10:43] <ShackJack> yesway: I was thinking that myself for an Xubuntu system... Firefox seems to be a hog sometimes...
[10:45] <yesway> i just don't like Qt very much, but it's easy to get to new interface
[10:46] <yesway> *get used to
[11:34] <triptec> I don't want my hdd to show up in thunar or on my desktop, as I can't use them because they are raided and I need to mount them from /dev/mapper, anyone?
[11:34] <triptec> hdd's*
[12:10] <KlrSpz> is it safe to remove all files in: /var/cache/apt/archives
[12:12] <Arkh> KlrSpz, yes
[12:19] <KlrSpz> heh, thanks, just found out apt-get clean will do it as well
[12:19] <cheeseboy> triptec you still there?
[12:20] <Arkh> indeed KlrSpz :P
[12:22] <ShackJack> HI all - I mistakenly enable the Xfce compositing (not compiz/desktop effects) on a system not up for it... Anyone know where I can shut it off via the settings (I'm more of a GNOME guy :)
[12:23] <TheSheep> ShackJack: settings->window manager tweaks->compositor
[12:23] <maxamillion> TheSheep: @!!@@@
[12:23] <ShackJack> TheSheep: Thanks - but I can't get into that... the desktops come up, but I can't see any windows/apps come up clearly... Was wondering where in config file to turn off?
[12:24] <maxamillion> TheSheep: you haven't been on jabber lately ... i was starting to wonder
[12:25] <TheSheep> maxamillion: there is touristic fair soon and I work part time as a graphician for a touristic company -- no time
[12:26] <maxamillion> TheSheep: ahhh, cool cool :)
[12:26] <TheSheep> ShackJack: ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/wmtweaks.xml
[12:26] <ShackJack> Ah... got it - thanks...
[12:42] <triptec> cheeseboy now I am
[12:48] <cheeseboy> triptec still need help mounting?
[12:52] <triptec> well I know how to mount it, the thing is that thunar sees the individual disks and places shortcut to them
[12:57] <triptec> cheeseboy
