| Nick3 | is there a way to like reset all internet settings? | 10:09 |

| Epicenter | Hello! I am looking to reinstall Ubuntu but "Gutsy" has Xorg v1.3 which has serious issues with the siliconmotion card in my laptop. I want to get an older version that has 1.2. Which would you guys recommend? Thank you! | 10:34 |
| Epicenter | Why can't I download 7.04 anywhere? Just 6.06.1 and 7.10? I just want the next step down from 7.10 that has Xorg 1.2; Xorg 1.3 has major problems with my Silicon Motion-based video card. | 10:40 |
| age6racer | hi all I just reinstalled Xubuntu over the top of an existing installation. Everything is working pretty well but i can't seem to add/remove items from the autostarted applications tool. Where is the config file for this and why can I not write to it? | 11:49 |
| TheSheep | age6racer: there are two, local in your home in .config/autostart, and a global one in /etc/xdg/autostart | 11:52 |
| shadowkernel | you may check the permission of .config | 11:52 |
| age6racer | shadowkernel: My user owns .config and has read/write permissions | 11:54 |
| age6racer | TheSheep: Thanks for that info. Do you know what I need to do in order to change what starts? do i just delete the files relating to the ones I dont want? and do i create new ones for new apps? why does the autostarted apps tool not work? | 11:56 |
| TheSheep | age6racer: you edit these files and add 'disable=true' or something like that, not sure, there is a freedesktop.org spec for that | 12:01 |
| Epicenter | Hello! I am looking for a VERY, VERY fast file manager for X. I used to have XFE but now I am running feisty, and it seesm to be in Gutsy only. Can anyone make a recommendation? Thanks! :) | 13:04 |
| TheSheep | mc | 13:05 |
| Epicenter | mc? | 13:06 |
| Epicenter | I do need a gui :) | 13:07 |
| Epicenter | TheSheep: know a good fast X11 one? | 13:11 |
| TheSheep | thunar | 13:14 |
| Epicenter | Thanks. :) think I'll go with XFE, found a working .deb on the author's site | 13:18 |
| Epicenter | but will keep thunar around in case it gives me trouble | 13:18 |
| Da_Putzler | hi folks, does xUbuntu detect usb digital cameras and let you download photos like ubuntu does ? | 13:32 |
| TheSheep | Da_Putzler: I think it supports fewer cameras, but youcan install gthumb and have it the same as in gnome | 13:34 |
| Da_Putzler | so it's basically gthumb that deals with the photo side of things ? | 13:34 |

| schokoforum | hello | 17:42 |
| ere4si | !hi | 17:42 |
| ubotu | Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! | 17:42 |
| schokoforum | well, i'm installing Xubuntu and i have a problem | 17:43 |
| schokoforum | :P | 17:43 |
| zoredache | perhaps you should elaborate. I don't think any of us will try and interrogate you | 17:44 |
| schokoforum | after some time there is an error and the box says me, that there is a problem with the DVD-drive or the harddisk | 17:44 |
| schokoforum | is it possible to take the Disk out of the drive to clean it? | 17:45 |
| zoredache | did you run an checksum scan on the disk? | 17:45 |
| zoredache | did you check the md5 sums on the iso you downloaded? | 17:46 |
| schokoforum | you mean the option when i start the system? | 17:46 |
| schokoforum | eeehm, no | 17:46 |
| zoredache | yes there is an option at bootup to check the disk | 17:46 |
| zoredache | well I would start by trying that. If it tells you your cd is bad, then either means you have a bad optical drive, or a bad burn of the ubuntu disk | 17:47 |
| schokoforum | well so i have to restart my computer.... | 17:47 |
| schokoforum | mmmh, i hope, i have a bad burn... | 17:47 |
| schokoforum | but the optical drive isn't the newest | 17:48 |
| schokoforum | thank you i will now be away from the chat and if i don't come back, i had success, if i come back, there are two possibilities: 1st i want to meet you and 2nd i still have the problem... | 17:50 |
| zoredache | :) | 17:51 |

| rww | Hmm. I have an Ubuntu 7.10 live CD. My CD burner is currently broken. Is there a relatively easy way of installing Xubuntu from an Ubuntu live CD, without ending up with tonnes of unnecessary packages being left over from Ubuntu? | 22:23 |
| deeps | rww: are you on a linux based system already? | 22:26 |
| TheSheep | rww: look at the instructions for installing from knoppix, for example: | 22:27 |
| TheSheep | !install | rww | 22:27 |
| ubotu | rww: ntation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - Also /msg ubotu automate | 22:27 |
| isul | xubuntu doesn't come with a vnc server, how can I get one? | 22:45 |
| zoredache | try apt-get install x11vnc | 22:57 |
| zoredache | or search for 'vnc' in the package manager and choose your favorite | 22:58 |
| isul | it says package not found, and there are no results for that search in "Add/Remove..." | 23:00 |
| zoredache | do you have the 'universe' respositories enabled? | 23:01 |
| isul | no clue. it's a fresh install | 23:03 |
| zoredache | !repos | 23:04 |
| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 23:05 |
| isul | thanks | 23:10 |
