| ablomen | you could try making the panel files ro or something like that | 08:17 |
| CyberMad | ablomen how is that? from /home/username/.config/xfce/panel ? | 08:21 |
| ablomen | ~/.config/xfce4/panel/panels.xml << if you chmod that so they dont have write rights i guess they cant change the panels | 08:23 |
| ablomen | dunno if xfce shows up errors then, you should just try i guess | 08:23 |
| CyberMad | ok ablomen :) i will never know if not try it | 08:38 |

| CapsAdmin | Is there a way to instal xUbuntu without formating my xbox? | 12:29 |

| Asbanol | hello @all, I can't get my soundcard to run. I'm using Xubuntu 7.04 on an ASUS M2N-VM DH (nVidia nForce 430). The chip should be HD audio with an AD1988 codec | 16:24 |
| ere4si | !sound | 16:41 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 16:41 |

| kwhk | TheSheep: just did some searches about .bash, doesn't seem to be something simple to me. but will certainly try. thanks. | 17:10 |
| TheSheep | kwhk: just add a line to .bash_profile in your home directory | 17:12 |
| TheSheep | kwhk: somethin like 'alias foo="some long and twisted command"' | 17:13 |
| TheSheep | kwhk: then you can call it by typing 'foo' | 17:13 |

| loguser1 | but untested apps..........!!? | 17:22 |
| TheSheep | loguser1: they are going to be replaced after you update anyways | 17:22 |

| KillerMonkey[p] | hello? | 22:07 |
| TheSheep | hi KillerMonkey[p] | 22:09 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | yo | 22:11 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | i need help | 22:11 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | with xubuntu | 22:11 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | TheSheep u there? | 22:11 |
| TheSheep | !ask | KillerMonkey[p] | 22:14 |
| ubotu | KillerMonkey[p]: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 22:14 |
| evil_tech | so apparently 64 bit (k)(x)ubuntu dont like radeon x800 | 22:19 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | My cd that i installed (I tried both new versions) said that files on it were corrupt. | 22:24 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | Everything else before the install worked perfectly | 22:24 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | what should i do? | 22:24 |
| evil_tech | reburn or run the disc verification utility | 22:25 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | what will the disc verification utility do? | 22:26 |
| evil_tech | verify that the installer can access all the files necessary | 22:27 |
| TheSheep | KillerMonkey[p]: tell you that the files are corrupted | 22:27 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | and if it does tell me the files are corrupted then what should I do? | 22:27 |
| evil_tech | though that wouldnt really be necessary if it is telling you it has corrupt files | 22:27 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | ive burned the disk 3 times | 22:27 |
| evil_tech | meaning its an rewritable disc or you've burnt the same ISO 3 times? | 22:28 |
| TheSheep | KillerMonkey[p]: burn at the slowest speed possible | 22:28 |
| TheSheep | KillerMonkey[p]: and verify the image before burning | 22:28 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | um....ok....ill try over | 22:28 |
| TheSheep | !md5 | KillerMonkey[p] | 22:28 |
| ubotu | KillerMonkey[p]: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 22:28 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | i dont get it | 22:34 |
| evil_tech | don't get what | 22:36 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | wait should i have the i386? | 22:36 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | i have a previous 95 computer | 22:37 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | screw it im not doing the checksum | 22:39 |
| evil_tech | you need the 32 bit install and i'd recommend using the alternate install cd | 22:40 |
| Ashfire909 | ok, i'm on the live cd and am about to showing to a friend. the font is like,huge. xubuntu | 22:50 |
| Ashfire909 | (i can't see what i'm typing, sorry.) | 22:51 |
| Ashfire909 | how do i shrink the fonts? i tryied setting the relsution up and shrinking the font but it's still huge | 22:51 |
| Ashfire909 | all the fonts are big, 9 is like 66 size | 22:52 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | 32 bit install? | 23:19 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | is that i386? | 23:20 |
| evil_tech | yeah | 23:20 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | and i am using altertate | 23:20 |
| KillerMonkey[p] | it didnt pass the integrity check | 23:20 |
| inferno | does xubuntu come with a firewall | 23:55 |
