[00:03] Sorry to bother, but would anyone know how I should go about setting up a USB connected printer? I've done it using CUPS before, but never with the Xubuntu helper. [00:05] xubuntu uses cups [00:05] I know. [00:05] It's just the phrasing with the GUI configuration throws me off. [00:07] ahh well i never use printers so i have no clue [00:07] I'll try localhost:631 [00:49] how can I get the power manager icon to reappear? It has gone for some reason on my laptop [00:50] I can't tell how much battery power I have left :) [00:52] rclick the task bar and add it again [00:55] thanks [00:56] hmm... [00:56] except the power manager isn't listed is it? [00:56] I see batter monitor [00:56] but that isn't quite the same [00:57] I just want to change the preferences for how and when it sleeps [00:59] basically I just want the gnome-power-manager back [00:59] soldats, any ideas? [02:10] I'm looking to use xubuntu live to help recover my laptop. Know where I can find a ppc image? [02:10] * isforinsects would rather not have to roll his own tonight [02:45] isforinsects: cdimage.ubuntu.com should have it [02:46] Danke tonyyarusso. [02:46] Hrrm. Not finding ppc builds immediately. Continuing to poke 'round. [02:47] oh wait, nvm [02:47] a sec [02:47] I'm looking for the no-longer-officially-supported ppc architecture btw. I don't know if I made that clear. [02:48] It's somewhat hidden, but there ;) [02:48] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/7.10/release/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-powerpc.iso [02:49] It's the /ports/ part that I forgot to mention [02:49] excellent, thanks. [03:38] odd. I can boot, but I'm stuck in initramfs [03:38] Where is startx? [04:34] hey folks! I am looking for a guide to enable networking between Xubuntu and WinXp [04:35] does anyone know about one? [04:50] how is everyone? [04:51] groovestix: check out any of the many resources on Samba [04:51] Just a quick question. How do I see what errors happen at login? I get an error that states that I don't have permission to access the system configuration upon boot [04:51] isforinsects: I found a youtube video that apparent;y works, based on the comments and the views [04:51] I don't know what's trying to load, and this is a brand new install of Xubuntu [04:52] Groovestix: There are some tricky bits sometimes in windows networking. Go hang out in #samba if you can't figure it yout./ [04:52] they told me to google [04:52] very helpful [04:52] btw, is there a way to uninstall nano? [04:53] It's a fairly trivial program, why bother? [04:53] I would think that 'sudo apt-get remove nano' would do it [04:53] :) [04:54] with that being said, I wanna strip xubuntu down [04:54] so I can put BOINC, a GUI and enable networking [04:54] I wanna have this machine always on [04:54] (it's an old one) [04:58] how do I change passwords? [04:58] I hope I'll be able to do that [04:59] mygod, does xubuntu have any function? sudo doesnt' do anything in terminal [04:59] I give up [05:01] Again, as earlier today, thanks for helping me with my questions [05:01] why do you think nano will have anything to do with boinc? [05:03] also, why not start with a cli only install and add only what is needed, instead of trying to strip something down? [05:09] Guys, what is the default photo viewer in Xubuntu? [05:14] hey people, what is the equivalent to "places" (Ubuntu) in Xubuntu? [05:14] in other words, how do I access my network? [05:20] Groovestix: there is none... to access your network you can install smbfs and mount the volumes from a terminal [05:21] sudo apt-get smbfs ??? [05:21] yes [05:23] btw zoredache, I just saw what you said [05:23] I suck with terminals since I am new [05:24] that's why I wanna strip, rather than build [05:25] also, I received "E: invalid operation smbfs" [05:31] zoredache: any ideas? [05:40] Groovestix: Google ubuntu packages, they have a nice search engine. And I believe that it's 'samba', not smbfs to install. But there are a dozen tools. [05:40] I usualy install one or another that depends on the samba root materials. [05:40] I think the repositories aren't set [05:40] Keep? Some female name? Can't remember atm [05:40] Oh? [05:40] huh!?? [05:41] Groovestix: I was referring to the package I install. [05:42] It's gsambad. [05:42] http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=samba&searchon=names&subword=1&version=gutsy&release=all [05:42] those are the packages you can call by name. [05:42] Ifound this [05:42] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=304131 [05:42] is it any good!? [05:42] looks old [05:42] And you can do repositories by 'nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and uncommenting things. [05:42] Or vi if you prefer *shudder* [05:43] Groovestix: apt-get install smbfs [05:43] you need an action [05:44] it seems like I already have it [05:45] what's faster, ob or xfce? [05:46] fb? & ob tie, too hard to tell? [05:50] in xubuntu does gedit work well? [05:56] neur1: yes, gedit works fine [06:05] thank you [06:13] In both kde and gnome, the volume control on my keyboard works automatically... is there I can make it also work with xfce? It doesn't appear to by default [07:37] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] how do i add a my most usable programs to panel in xfce???? [07:39] newbieee, right-click on panel, add Launcher [07:39] newbieee, stop flooding the channel please. [07:40] people wake up.......sun is on your head [07:40] your question has been answered. If this is not a suitable answer then please rephrase your question. [07:40] there is no launcher [07:43] thanks a lot for your help...now i got it sorry for trouble...but without that i think i would have not got any answer from this channel. [07:46] newbieee, I answered your question 20mins ago in the #ubuntu channel [07:46] and I've answered it after the first time you've asked here. [07:46] no need for flooding at all. [07:49] predaeus: then its my fault...i thought no one is responding. i dint saw your reply... [07:51] newbieee, no problem. Just ask again then, but please don't flood, it is considered harsh and unfriendly to flood the channel. [07:51] and it's all volunteers here, so please be patient. [07:52] k [07:53] now i want to put opera in my panel so i selected network now how to select opera? [07:54] newbieee, hm that's just the Icon it seems. You would have to enter opera into the command field. [07:54] "command" [07:55] newbieee, http://www.xfce.org/documentation/4.2/manuals/xfce4-panel#launcher-item [08:07] predaeus:hey thanks nice link,.....can you tell me one more thing from which folder i can get the i cone for the programs [08:09] newbieee, hm I think the location of the icon file depends on the program. You could run "locate opera" in a terminal and see what it brings up and what might be the icon. [08:10] newbieee, there seem to be a lot of program icons in /usr/share/pixmaps check that [08:10] e.g. Firefox icon is in there. [08:14] hey got it thanks budy. [08:14] /usr/share/applications [08:15] /usr/share/icons [10:30] could someone please give me a hand [10:31] a pm is needed tho as this is quite a long problem [10:31] * hey-hey np: Alison Limerick - Where Love Lives [05:21m/256Kbps/48KHz] [11:30] i forgot how to do this. i downloaded Rainlendar, a calendar app, yesterday, and i want to pin to start menu, but i've forgotten how to find the file path for the command in the startup window... [11:30] file:///tmp/rainlendar2-lite_2.3.b54-1_i386.deb is how it appeared in the download window ... [11:31] in the console: "which rainlender" will show you the path to the binary [11:32] stone[no]: ok, lemme try [11:33] stone[no]: doesn't work for me .... no output from the terminal with that command or with 'whereis rainlendar' as someone else suggested; any other ideas? [11:34] Is the app installed? [11:36] stone[no]: ok, wait; i entered rainlendar2 and get this: /usr/bin/rainlendar2 /usr/share/rainlendar2 ...i don't understand if i should use the usr/bin portion, the usr/share portion, or the whole string? [11:37] Use "/usr/bin/rainlendar2" this is the binary. To make sure, you could type /usr/bin/rainlendar2 in the console and se the program start :) [11:38] stone[no]: ok, great; thanks so much ... i go try [11:43] anybody lose all thier panels? [11:43] it's looks like i'm running ob [11:48] stone[no]: thanks, all working satisfactorily now .. :) [11:50] hello [11:54] hi, i downloaded the 7.10-i386-desktop image, burned it, checked the hash, boot it wont boot :/ [11:55] np [11:56] okay, tried a different device, now it boots,.. [14:22] anyone use e17 [14:33] hm, in many configuration dialogs there is a close button but no apply button [14:33] how to save the settings then? [14:35] hello [14:43] kritzstapf: when there is no apply button, settings are saved as soon as you set them [14:45] okay [15:10] hi [15:20] Hi. Just wondering, what do I get if I install xubuntu-desktop that I don't get if I just install xfce4 on gutsy? [15:20] Is it just themes and stuff? [15:21] Joeboy: all the apps and settings [15:22] Hi, is there any possibility to chnage the font size of the xfce-menue? [15:22] TheSheep: so, if I just want a more lightweight environment for my basically functional ubuntu I should just go for xfce? [15:22] wubuntu: yes, settings->user interface settings [15:23] Joeboy: yeah, probably, and maybe some additional plugins for the panel or guis for settings, if you like them [15:24] TheSheep: thanks [15:25] TheSheep: Thanx, but I mean just for the menu - seems that settings-user interface changes the size for all apps and windows, or? [15:26] Hi [15:26] please somebody help me... [15:26] there is anybody connected? [15:27] Indigo: What do you need help with? [15:28] i'm using xubuntu 7.10 [15:28] no one an idea? [15:28] but my msn client is Kopete [15:29] sudently it cruch & the desktop now, after a reboot, is unconfugured, , it works when it pleases [15:30] even the Xfce4.terminal don't work some times [15:31] wubuntu: ah, just for menu, you would have to make or modify your gtk theme [15:31] only the commands runned by su (or sudo) work, except for the web browser [15:32] Indigo: ctrl+alt+F1 or F2. run dmesg or less /var/log/messages. Try to pin out the bug... [15:33] how? in .gtkrc.2-0? [15:34] or the whole gtk-theme? [15:34] dmesg or less /var/log/messages?? what is that? [15:34] wubuntu: any way you like it, they are merged on load [15:35] Indigo: check the rights and owner of your home directory [15:35] is there a way to add the nm applet to a shelf in e17? [15:36] TheSheep: don't know how to do? [15:36] i'm the root, the owner, blablabla... i'm the onlyone usingg the computer [15:36] salve, ho provato a mettere un plugin per xmms ma si bloccava a ./configure .. dice che non c'รจ glib e che devo installarlo.. quindi l'ho installato ma non funziona [15:36] wubuntu: look for some howto on gtk themes [15:36] ops [15:36] hi, i tired to install a plugin for xmms but when i do ./configure it gives me an error... configure: error: *** GLIB >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first *** so i installed glib but it doesn't work.. can you help me? (sorry for my english) [15:37] Indigo: install the -dev package for it [15:37] Indigo: sorry [15:37] InCaPaCe: that was for you :) [15:37] hahhaha [15:37] yes but.. which -dev package? :S [15:38] InCaPaCe: for the libglib, possibly version >= 1.2.2 [15:39] ah! i forgot tu tell you.. after every reboot or shutingdown , all the work done return to zero, i mean, all re "reconfiguration" i've done [15:39] i alredy have got it [15:41] .. [15:43] indigo: I've got no idea why it's behaving so. Look in your logs and try to find the bug. 'dmesg' will show you the latest. Most messages from the system will be logged to the file: /var/log/messages [15:45] it's a huge message [15:47] Indigo: the latest messages will be last. You can use 'tail -f /var/log/messages' it will continusly show the last message to be added to the messages. Use ctrl+c to stop it. [15:51] ' tail -f /var/log/messages ' does not send me any message [15:52] but dmegs send me [1079.366191] ide: failed opcode was : unknow [15:56] that's the last line of a huge message [15:56] Indigo: I'm about to leave, sorry I can't help you more... You could try to add a new user (remember do give it access to the 'admin' group, to use sudo). See what happens with the new user. [15:57] thank... === thruxton_ is now known as thruxton [18:11] can I run terminal applications via the Verve Command Line? [18:13] Dagaka: terminal -x command [18:13] Dagaka: maybe there is a better way [18:14] TheSheep: thanks thats good enough for me [18:14] works perfectly [18:14] Is there a way that I can make my keyboard's volume control work in XFCE? (like it does automatically in Gnome and KDE?) [18:14] sstchur: yes, there are several howtos on the forum [18:14] sstchur: basically you binf the keys to commands for changing the volume [18:15] TheSheep: ok thanks, where do I find that forum?

[20:17] 7.10 [20:18] i also had problems using the main version of the boot cd (not the text based) that one kept locking up midway through the install [20:18] can you <1>? [20:18] when the text install freezes? [20:19] the text intstall worked, the other one freezes [20:19] * vidd never uses the gui(live) install cuzz he could never get it to work right [20:20] right....but it freezes when you reboot.....right? [20:20] yep [20:20] can you hit ?

[20:24] let the installer do it [20:24] i told it to do the whole disk [20:25] can you reboot and hit as soon as the splash screen shows up? [20:25] hopefully we will see some error messages [20:26] heh....im half tempted to have you re-install to just a cli [20:27] and then add xubuntu-desktop (and everything that goes with it) after the system boots [20:27] ^^ is actually my prefered method of install on a new system [20:28] nothing that really stood out ill try it one more time i think i was 1 or 2 things [20:28] thanks for all your help this is my first linux experience haha [20:29] we all started somewhere [20:29] hardwere drivers failed to reset no boot flag [20:29] and then something about cpu frequency flashes fast [20:31] did it freeze again?> [20:31] yep [20:31] im fine with re-installing the whole thing if you think that would be best [20:31] feel up to a reinstall to just the cli?

[22:24] yup [22:25] according to the guild, it should be working [22:26] It works, I do have it work. I want to extend it to all desktops though, not just workspace 4 [22:27] what do you have in (set_workspace 4)? [22:27] right now it says (set_workspace 4) [22:27] I'm sorry, change the 4 to 1 [22:27] so set it to 4 [22:28] and if you set your pager to 6 desktops, set the number to 6 [22:29] (set_workspace x) = # of desktops to apply [22:29] ah, so it doesn't coorelate to 1 workspace, but the amount of workspaces [22:29] if i understand it correctly [22:31] well, let's see, one sec [22:34] hmmm...now it just loads in Workspace 4 [22:35] (set_workspace 1,2,3,4) [22:35] read my mind :) [22:37] I wonder if I make separte console profiles if it work work [22:41] (set_workspace not 500) is my next suggestion [22:42] will try that next, just added another (begin) statement [22:43] trying that now [22:47] not 500 puts it on workspace 1. That's fine I guess. I'll tinker with it more later. Thanks for you help vidd. [22:47] I'm gone, gotta get ready for Next Year ;) [22:48] does it put it on all? [22:48] it works on desktop 1, so it works. It just doesn't extend to all workspaces [22:50] vidd you here?
