| bad_cables | i was in the middle of a package update and the connection went down | 01:02 |
| bad_cables | i know that it is good because everyother computer in thehouse is on it... | 01:03 |
| bad_cables | whats the deal here? | 01:03 |
| bad_cables | it said "waiting for *MYSSID* key: | 01:03 |
| bad_cables | waiting for the network key for wireless network MYCRAP... | 01:04 |
| bad_cables | what is that? | 01:04 |
| bad_cables | the network settings panel has nothing in it... | 01:06 |
| bad_cables | no text no nothing | 01:06 |
| bad_cables | what the heck is this | 01:06 |
| bad_cables | ? | 01:06 |
| bad_cables | ok, i restarted and now it is on... | 01:10 |
| bad_cables | why did it go out? its only 7.5 feet away from the router! | 01:10 |
| bad_cables | that really sucks | 01:10 |
| bad_cables | does the APM cut the wireless? | 01:11 |
| bad_cables | is there a forum for Xubuntu? | 01:11 |
| neur1 | ever heard of shift linux? | 06:07 |
| Breakage | nope, just googled it website looks nice though. | 06:08 |
| neur1 | it's xubuntu with different apps | 06:11 |
| maxamillion | it is _not_ xubuntu with different apps | 06:11 |
| maxamillion | shift linux is a debian based distro offering many different desktop environments | 06:12 |
| Breakage | nope its not xubuntu with diff apps | 06:12 |
| neur1 | boot splash screen says xubuntu | 06:12 |
| maxamillion | shift doesn't even use the same init process as xubuntu | 06:12 |
| neur1 | i used the xfce version | 06:13 |
| maxamillion | meh | 06:13 |
| neur1 | xfce/fluxbox version actually | 06:15 |
| neur1 | wierd huh | 06:15 |
| neur1 | installed conky and it lists the ubuntu 2.6.22.14-generic | 06:17 |
| maxamillion | neur1: then you are running gutsy i presume? | 06:17 |
| neur1 | i guess | 06:18 |
| neur1 | but it's a shift linux | 06:18 |
| neur1 | iso | 06:18 |
| maxamillion | oh | 06:18 |
| maxamillion | uhmmm... i guess they transitioned from debian to ubuntu | 06:18 |
| neur1 | i'm live now | 06:18 |
| maxamillion | neur1: do '/exec -o uname -a' in your irc client | 06:19 |
| maxamillion | without the quotes | 06:19 |
| neur1 | what do you mean? | 06:19 |
| maxamillion | nothing ... nevermind | 06:20 |
| Himmelsmeister | hi, i have quite a bad problem, i tried to switch back from the new ati-driver to the one in the repos and now each time i try to boot i get a black screen (and no video-output at all) where the xserver should start. | 06:44 |

| ochosi | does anyone now whether it makes a big difference if i chgrp the files in my home folder from $user to root? | 09:08 |
| TheSheep | ochosi: why would you do that? | 09:09 |
| TheSheep | ochosi: it can break some applications, notably ssh and friends | 09:09 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: hihi, i really really expected that question :) it seems that my rsync-script prefers it that way (it syncs from ext3 to fat32 on usb) | 09:09 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: so you think it could really break ssh? i mean: in what way? | 09:11 |
| TheSheep | ochosi: ssh will refuse to use a configration directory that has improper user and group | 09:13 |
| TheSheep | ochosi: I'm sure there are some options for rsync to fix your problem | 09:14 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: brr. that sounds not so promising. so i guess i'll have to find a way to deal with that rsync problem | 09:14 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: yeah, i'll have a look at the man | 09:14 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: it's weird rsync even wants to change the group-setting... it always gives me these "rsync: chgrp "filename" failed: Operation not permitted" errors | 09:18 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: and using the -g (group preservation) option doesn't stop it from doing that | 09:19 |
| ochosi | TheSheep: sorry to bother you with that. i'll try to figure out myself... | 09:20 |
| LetsGo67 | There is a folder in the trash that i cannot delete, can someone help me please? | 11:38 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: what is the problem? | 11:40 |
| LetsGo67 | There is a folder, 80211g, with an "X" on it, TheSheep, and I cannot delete it. | 11:41 |
| LetsGo67 | "Permission non accordée". | 11:41 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: who is the owner of that directory? | 11:41 |
| LetsGo67 | !ops > LetsGo67 | 11:42 |
| LetsGo67 | TheSheep, I am not sure. | 11:42 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: can you check it in its properites? | 11:42 |
| LetsGo67 | You are an op, TheSheep? | 11:42 |
| TheSheep | properties | 11:42 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: why? | 11:42 |
| LetsGo67 | I checked with !ops > letsgo67 | 11:43 |
| LetsGo67 | It doesn't even display the folder size. | 11:43 |
| LetsGo67 | It's probably owned by root. | 11:43 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: then you must remove it as root | 11:43 |
| LetsGo67 | But how? It is in my trash. | 11:44 |
| TheSheep | LetsGo67: the trash is kept in .local/share/Trash in your home directory | 11:44 |
| LetsGo67 | Thanks man. | 11:45 |
| LetsGo67 | My time is wrong, is says 12:49, can someone help me change it please? it constantly changes on its own | 11:49 |

| bytor4232 | man, people won't let it go. | 22:49 |
| bytor4232 | Ubuntu XFCE Edition! | 22:49 |
| zoredache | ? | 22:49 |
| bytor4232 | http://www.linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2008-01-27-003-26-OP-DB-SW&tbovrmode=1#talkback_area | 22:50 |
| bytor4232 | Basically a bunch of newbs want Mark Shuttleworth to change the name of Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu to Ubuntu KDE Edition, Ubuntu XFCE Edition, etc. | 22:51 |
| zoredache | yeah, but does Shuttleworth even control the names really? | 22:52 |
| bytor4232 | Thats a good question. | 22:52 |
| bytor4232 | I thought Xubuntu was a community developed distro, as was Kubuntu. | 22:53 |
| bytor4232 | I wasn't aware they were "owned" by Ubuntu. | 22:53 |
| zoredache | ubuntu itself is mostly a community developed... | 22:55 |
| zoredache | isn't like 90-95% of what was in the repository come directly from the debian testing/unstable? | 22:56 |
| bytor4232 | So Ubuntu is really just another edition of Debian. | 22:56 |
| Dev1 | hello all | 23:35 |
| soldats | hello | 23:36 |
| === Dev1 is now known as dev1 | ||
| dev1 | i'm getting an i/o error when installing xubuntu from cd | 23:36 |
| dev1 | the disk verified, and the hd does not show any bad blocks or filesystem problems | 23:37 |
| soldats | gui install or text based | 23:39 |
| dev1 | unfortunatly it erased my system before i discovered this, i'm in the livecd now | 23:39 |
| soldats | 64bit ir 686 | 23:39 |
| dev1 | gui | 23:39 |
| dev1 | 686 | 23:39 |
| soldats | id suggest trying the text install because i believe the gui installer might still be buggy | 23:40 |
| dev1 | how do i enter that? | 23:40 |
| soldats | from the livecd | 23:40 |
| soldats | theres an icon on the livecd desktop | 23:40 |
| dev1 | that's for the text install? | 23:41 |
| soldats | theres a gui icon and a text install the text one looks like the icon for the terminal | 23:41 |
| dev1 | nothing like that | 23:41 |
| dev1 | just the gui installer | 23:42 |
| dev1 | can i run it from the terminal? | 23:42 |
| soldats | yea i cant remember the command | 23:42 |
| soldats | try typing install from a terminal | 23:42 |
| dev1 | it needs a source and destination | 23:43 |
| soldats | are you sure there isnt an icon underneath the gui install icon | 23:43 |
| dev1 | yes | 23:44 |
| soldats | strange sorry i had to make sure | 23:44 |
| dev1 | i downloaded the cd yesterday | 23:44 |
| soldats | ill try the bot real quick | 23:44 |
| soldats | !install | 23:44 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 23:44 |
| soldats | is it possible you can read some of these links real quick | 23:45 |
| dev1 | ok | 23:45 |
| soldats | how far did the install get before not working | 23:45 |
| dev1 | copying files | 23:49 |
| soldats | is that after the partitioning | 23:50 |
| dev1 | if i install ubuntu-server and then install xubuntu-desktop, will i miss out on any customizations or features? | 23:50 |
| dev1 | after partitioning | 23:50 |
| soldats | iff the ubuntu-server installs fine you shouldnt miss out on anything when installing the xubuntu desktop | 23:50 |
| dev1 | i'll give that a shot | 23:51 |
| soldats | have you run ubuntu before | 23:51 |
| dev1 | bbl | 23:51 |
| dev1 | yeah, for quite a while | 23:51 |
| dev1 | year or two | 23:51 |
| soldats | ok well let me know how it turns out | 23:51 |
