[03:54] hola peeps [05:12] Getting sick of cdrecord. It's not really "auto" this thing. Now when all data have been burned to the cd, cdrecord fails exactly when it says 633 of 633 mb burned. It's like cdrecord is not detecting the end of the iso file. See log here: http://pastebin.com/d52d17716 [05:40] hey [05:40] hold on brb [06:00] okay [06:00] so im trying to get compizfusion to work [06:01] i have xubuntu 7.10 [06:01] i used restricted drivers manager to install drivers for my ati radeon x1300 [06:01] its running sluggishly and compiz wont start [06:02] can anyone help me? [06:03] should i try the driver from the ati website? [06:04] wow is there anyone talking? [06:07] nugz1212: xubuntu is not really adopted to run compiz. It's made for light usage. Yes, compiz will work with xubuntu but it will be easier to get it to work with ubuntu or kubuntu. Say, why do you want to run compiz with xubuntu? [06:20] when i tried to run xfce-terminal ,the xfce-desktop7.10 will restart itself to logo windows ,why ? [06:58] Anyone know if I format my external drive to ext3, is there any way to read AND write to the drive from a windows box? [07:02] NullName: AFAIK no way. But as you may know, there's NTFS-3G to read and write NTFS format volumes on Linux [07:13] grahamperrin: So should I just format the drive to NTFS? I'm in the middle of formating to EXT3 using gparted, and it's taking forever (500G drive)...I probably should wait for this to finish and then format to NTFS using gparted? [07:13] NullName: I never consciously used gparted [07:14] * grahamperrin is Mac-oriented [07:14] Is there a better way to format? How long does it take to format to ext3 if it's a 500gb external USB drive? [07:22] * grahamperrin was very pleasantly surprised to find that eeeXubuntu (overtly optimised for Eee PC) live CD recognised Apple Bluetooth Mighty Mouse (including right-click), Bluetooth keyboard, and on-board brightness and keyboard backlight keys on his MacBook Pro [07:22] * grahamperrin was even more surprised to discover support for HFS+ (Mac OS X Extended Format) volumes [07:24] what is eeexubuntu? [07:25] I use xubuntu 7.10 and love it...by far my favorite of ubuntu distros [07:27] I've been wanting to get a MAC really badly and install xubuntu [07:28] I would use two drives..one with the MAc OSX and one with xubuntu [07:28] I LOVE being able to run my shell scripts on a mac [07:28] BASH is my favorite language [07:34] NullName: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/ubuntu:eeexubuntu:home [07:42] thanks [08:05] does thunar support browsing samba directories? [08:10] linux_stu: no [08:12] k thanks zoredache [08:34] I'm having a strange problem, and I hope someone can help me with it [08:34] I just installed Xubuntu 7.10 on my PC [08:34] which previously had Gentoo on it, running fine [08:34] anyway, installed fine and came up as expected [08:35] I turned on the restricted Nvidia driver for my GeForce 7600 GT and rebooted [08:35] got the low resolution warning [08:35] it seems to be using the vesa driver instead of the nvidia driver. I tried configuring it and hitting "test" on the nvidia driver, and it locks the machine up [08:36] what can I try to figure out what's wrong here? [08:36] 640x480 isn't really what I had in mind :) [08:51] zoredache or anyone: I wondered whether Thunar could 'go to' fish or sftp. Discovered that it can't. [08:52] 1) If I'm to install an alternative or complementary file manager for eeeXubuntu on an Eee PC, which one would people recommend? Bearing in mind, space constraints. (I'm fairly new to Linux) [08:53] 2) I can use sshfs to achieve what I want. Does anyone know of a GUI that eases use of sshfs? (It's for a colleague, I don't really want to send them to the command line) [08:53] TIA [09:34] grahamperrin: their are ways, if you setup key authentication for ssh [09:34] using something like this... http://afuse.sourceforge.net/ [09:34] can i see a screenshot of somebodies xubuntu [09:35] why? [09:37] to see if you can make it look nice [09:38] eh? I basically have a stock desktop... I don't do anything fancy [09:38] zoredache: ok [09:39] if you wnat to know what the stock look is goto http://www.xubuntu.org/tour [09:40] there are some more diverse screenshots on the xfce site that should give you an idea of what is possible though [09:41] it looks nice [09:41] but it looks like gnome i thought xfce was a whole new thing [09:44] it is based on gtk the same as gnome... [09:45] zoredache: thanks, Afuse seems very appropriate [09:45] xfce it isn't what I would call a 'new' thing it has been around for over 10 years [09:54] zoredache: well i know not "new" but its pretty new to me but i thought it would be like something like gnome/kde/xfce [09:54] but gnome and xfce are pretty much in same category [09:59] http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s272/pronege/mydekstop2.png [13:07] I have a brand new server machine from Dell with a integrated screen/videocard. I have installed VLC but it wil not play. Oh, my screen is my 37" lcd flat tv. Anyone knows why it will not play my films? [13:17] Since an upgrade I'm getting nautilus instead of thunar. The desktop is gnome too. It's slow :( [14:09] Juerd_, i have a similar problem [14:09] go Application-> Settings -> Settings Manager, click on the top left box. tell it to use xfce to manage your desktop [14:21] damien_: Thanks [14:21] It's not top left here. [14:22] That's because it's alphabetically sorted, and my language is probably different. [14:22] ah coolio [14:22] Works perfectly though :) [14:22] i ran nautilus by mistake once and since then it resets after reboot [14:22] Oh, I might have done that too [14:22] I was blaming the upgrade [14:22] i says you have to edit xinitrc but i dunno how to [14:23] Gotta run, see ya [14:24] cya [14:24] anyone here know anything about getting it to use thunar with xfce instead of a weird gnome desktop mush up? [15:05] pardon me for speaking out of turn, but xubuntu seems to kick some motherfucking ass [15:07] i used to run regular ol' ubuntu... i don't see whats really missing [15:07] as far as functionality goes [16:35] Hi. Is there any way I can set a streaming movie as my desktop wallpaper? [16:43] Galliles: i think no === XwarlokX82 is now known as X|GW [17:45] I have a brand new server machine from Dell with a integrated screen/videocard.

[18:32] someone mind giving me a copy of their xorg.conf if they using "Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter (rev 04)" I'm having some issues with it [18:33] hmm maybe I should try it again after reconfiguring [18:35] somerville32, i think it has something to do with the new machine. I had an old 700mhz machine and it worked perfect. But not on this new one.. [18:35] RandyboY, Have you install the restricted codecs? [18:36] just did [18:36] I take it you're trying to play a DVD? [18:37] .avi xvid and divx [18:37] Did you install the codecs for those? [18:38] On the old machine, no i didnt. Just installed vlc player and it played all my film-files [18:39] And no, i havent installed anything other than the one you told me now on the new machine [18:49] hey [18:53] how do i make a command that and opens gnome-terminal and changes the current workspace to a other one ? [19:45] still no luck with this new comp :( [19:46] think the big forum post about it was deleted perhaps I should have bumped it when I read it before [19:46] got this sis integrated video card that isn't going so well [19:46] hi gerro :p [19:46] hi [19:54] XwarlokX82: omg I think I seen you before [19:54] hi [19:56] really? [19:58] hmm probably some online game or #fluxbuntu perhaps? [19:58] might be a game [19:58] i've never used fluxbuntu [19:59] you play trem? [19:59] trem? [19:59] guess not ^^ [19:59] you said trem, and the first thing i thought was tremulous (sp) [20:00] yeah [20:00] sp? [20:00] if i've played it, its been awhile...lol [20:00] (sp)=spelling [20:00] been playing guild wars a lot lately.... [20:00] I never really understood that game [20:00] had a friend whom liked it though [20:01] its pretty decent...i need to get the expansions for it. I'm still stuck in the original game. [20:01] same here [20:01] having some lag/graphic issues with cedega...but all in all it plays well. [20:02] its pretty smooth on wine [20:02] hmm...i'll have to keep that in mind. [20:02] now i'm trying to get regnum online to play....but i'm having some issues. [20:02] installer segfaults :( [20:02] hmm [20:02] almost tempted to download the winders version and just play it in wine. [20:02] nah I had a similar problem before [20:03] turns out you have to edit something... it hides the error pretty well [20:04] oh yeah! on 7.10 it links to something incorrectly I think [20:04] yeah...i tryed the MALLOC_CHECK_=0 fix...but nada, doesn't work for me. [20:04] you have to set it [20:04] hmm [20:04] don't think that was what I put before [20:04] i'll have to lok into it. [20:04] if you tell me how to check where that info would be [20:04] I can see if I have something about it [20:04] hold on, i'll link ya to the site. [20:05] because its all running fine here [20:05] well not at the moment.. got a new system and trying to fix the settings [20:06] http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/forum/showthread.php?t=16679 [20:06] thats the issue i'm having... [20:06] and i followed that bit of info, and another post in the forum further down...still doesn't work for me. [20:09] guildwars is paying ?
