infbliss | is there a way to install kde in a xubuntu system | 05:33 |
jmichaelx | i have xubuntu installed on an old AMD K6-2 256MB, but it seems fairly sluggish. in your opinion, would slackware possibly run better on this machine, or should i stick with xubuntu? | 06:31 |
maxamillion | jmichaelx: technically slackware would be a bit faster, but you will lose a large amount of features (the main one would be a package manager) | 06:46 |
maxamillion | jmichaelx: you could check out fluxbuntu, its a full featured desktop targeted at being as efficient as possible | 06:47 |
maxamillion | jmichaelx: its normally recommended for low end hardware (though not limited to low end hardware) | 06:47 |
jmichaelx | maxamillion: ty, i appreciate the suggestion while i am weighing options | 06:48 |
maxamillion | jmichaelx: hop over to #fluxbuntu for more info | 06:48 |
maxamillion | jmichaelx: i hang out there too ... and the core developer is in the channel at the moment, prime time for questions if you have any :) | 06:49 |
jmichaelx | maxamillion: ty i am there | 06:49 |
mindframe_ | is there a plugin that will monitor load for both cores of a dual core cpu? | 10:11 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: load of core? | 10:17 |
mindframe_ | like a gui for top | 10:18 |
mindframe_ | CPU load | 10:18 |
mindframe_ | percentage meter | 10:18 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: the system monitor shows you the cpu load | 10:18 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: system monitor plugin | 10:18 |
mindframe_ | not for both cores :) | 10:18 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: for both -- summed | 10:19 |
mindframe_ | ah i was looking for individual stats | 10:19 |
mindframe_ | im using the cpu graph plugin now | 10:19 |
mindframe_ | guess it'll have to do | 10:19 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: there are the veraious cpuinfo, governor, etc. plugins | 10:25 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: but none looks usable | 10:25 |
mindframe_ | do you know where the boot splash image is defined? i tried out kubuntu but uninstalled it and now the kubuntu splash image is still showing up during boot | 10:29 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: it's recorded in your initrd | 10:50 |
TheSheep | mindframe_: to change it, run update-alternatives to select the splash you want, and then rebuild the initrd with 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-$(uname -r)' | 10:52 |
sugardrunk | is it 2012 already? | 12:36 |

sprauekraut | Hello, I am having a problem with burning audio cds with mp3s using brasero. Would anyone like to help? | 14:30 |
TheSheep | !anyone | sprauekraut | 14:45 |
ubotu | sprauekraut: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 14:45 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: can you be a little more specific? | 14:46 |
sprauekraut | yeah | 14:50 |
sprauekraut | sorry | 14:50 |
sprauekraut | okay here we go | 14:50 |
sprauekraut | so when i add an mp3 file to an audio cd project in brasero, i get an error that says that gstreamer can't read the mp3 file....it says i should ensure that the proper codecs are installed | 14:51 |
sprauekraut | i have installed the gstreamer ugly plugins | 14:52 |
sprauekraut | and I have insalled the w32codecs from the mediabuntu repo | 14:52 |
sprauekraut | i am able to play the same mp3 file in xmms, so I know mp3 playback is supported | 14:52 |
sprauekraut | <error>"01 - Llama - Phish.mp3" can't be handled by gstreamer: Make sure the appropriate codec is installed.</error> | 14:54 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: well, do what it says | 14:54 |
sprauekraut | wow incredibly helpful | 14:55 |
sprauekraut | i would have never though | 14:55 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: make sure you have the fluendo-mp3 or ffmpeg codecs installed | 14:55 |
sprauekraut | k | 14:55 |
TheSheep | !attitude | 14:55 |
ubotu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 14:55 |
sprauekraut | !attitude | 14:56 |
sprauekraut | Here's the thing TheSheep, i wouldn't give you attitude if i wasn't given it | 14:56 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: do you have the packages installed? | 14:57 |
sprauekraut | gettin there | 14:57 |
sprauekraut | installed both you suggested and still no dice | 14:58 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: so you didn't have them installed? | 14:59 |
sprauekraut | correct | 14:59 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: do you have the -mad plugin? | 15:01 |
TheSheep | sprauekraut: check if you have the file /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstmad.so | 15:01 |
sprauekraut | yes i have that lib | 15:02 |
* TheSheep scratches his head | 15:03 | |
sprauekraut | xubuntu 7.10 if that helps | 15:05 |
sprauekraut | anyways, gotta get running. Thanks for your help so far, even with my attitude. We can pick this up later. See ya :) | 15:08 |

Freewith | Hi. My system makes a system bell sound 5 or 6 times everytime I get to the logon screen or issue a shutdown. Anyone know what's wrong? | 15:53 |
mindoverflow | hello | 15:53 |
mindoverflow | i got a little problem with xubuntu gutsy | 15:54 |
mindoverflow | same with ubuntu | 15:54 |
mindoverflow | well, i have to hard disks | 15:54 |
mindoverflow | when i try to run xubuntu from the live cd | 15:54 |
mindoverflow | it stops at the busybox | 15:55 |
mindoverflow | with the modprobe abnormal end | 15:55 |
mindoverflow | what i did is i unplugged my first hardisk | 15:55 |
mindoverflow | then it booted correctly | 15:56 |
mindoverflow | i even installed it | 15:56 |
mindoverflow | but once i replug the second drive, and boot from the installed partition | 15:56 |
mindoverflow | the problem reappears again | 15:56 |
mindoverflow | anyone got an idea please ? | 15:56 |
mindoverflow | i'm running it on a p3 700mhz 256m of ram | 15:57 |
mindoverflow | 2 ide disks the first of 20g partitionned to 6 partiotions | 15:59 |
mindoverflow | and an other ides of 80 g | 15:59 |

nikin | hy | 16:23 |
nikin | is this the right forum to discuss eeeXubuntu? | 16:25 |
TheSheep | nikolam: not really, but large number of questions may be relevant | 17:01 |
TheSheep | nikolam: sorry | 17:01 |
TheSheep | bah, he left | 17:01 |
nikolam | :) | 17:01 |
nikolam | i`m here | 17:02 |
TheSheep | but nikin left | 17:04 |
nikolam | ah, | 17:04 |
nikolam | when we are here.. | 17:04 |
nikolam | My X locks itself every time I logout and restart X. Processes stays (music plays etc) but keyboard is locked.. | 17:05 |
nikolam | I use 690g ati integrated graphics, latest ati owned drivers and xubuntu 64-bit | 17:05 |
nikolam | maybe i should revert to older ati drivers? (hibernation does not work with them | 17:06 |
TheSheep | nikolam: I found something that could help you find out what is going on, in 'man xorg', look for the definition of Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Multiply | 17:07 |
nikolam | mmm keyboard froze itself.. neither numlock works.. | 17:08 |
TheSheep | nikolam: have you looked at the bug reports? maybe there is a workaround... | 17:09 |
TheSheep | nikolam: I had something similar with nvidia, disabling agp helped then | 17:10 |
nikolam | Yes, I think that the best workaround is NOT to use ATI products at all.. | 17:10 |
mindoverflow | hi, could anybody help me with my boot problem ?? | 17:11 |
nikolam | Its binary driver after all.. | 17:11 |
nikolam | mindframe, shoot | 17:11 |
TheSheep | hehe | 17:11 |
TheSheep | missed | 17:11 |
nikolam | :) | 17:12 |
mindoverflow | the system wount boot up even with the live cd it stops at the busybox with an abnormal modprobe exit | 17:12 |
mindoverflow | it's due to hard disks, cuz i have 2 and as i unplug one of'em everything goes fine | 17:13 |
mindoverflow | then, any clue ??? | 17:13 |
nikolam | maybe you need to adjust boot order of disks in your computer BIOS | 17:13 |
mindoverflow | i forgot, it's a p3 with 2 ide drives | 17:13 |
mindoverflow | nah | 17:13 |
mindoverflow | the grub loads | 17:14 |
mindoverflow | but the problem is when initiating the drivers | 17:14 |
nikolam | Also, if you dont`want/cant adjust it in bios, you can install grub boot manager on other HDD and boot to current linux on another | 17:14 |
mindoverflow | but there is nothing related to boot order | 17:14 |
nikolam | drivers? You were just saying you cannot boot when you add second hdd | 17:15 |
mindoverflow | cuz i could switch to whatever i want | 17:15 |
mindoverflow | and i think i know how to deal with those stuff | 17:15 |
mindoverflow | yes, i mean the boat loader loads | 17:15 |
mindoverflow | then here, we're already done with the boot order | 17:15 |
mindoverflow | as the xubunto logo appears | 17:16 |
mindoverflow | a few moments later | 17:16 |
mindoverflow | it says that there was an abnormal exit of modprobe | 17:16 |
nikolam | look at the /boot/grub/manu.lst and /boot/grub/device.map | 17:16 |
mindoverflow | and i get the the initramfs shell | 17:16 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: can you remove the 'quiet' option from the kernel boot options (you can do it when in grub by pressing 'e') and see what it says? | 17:17 |
mindoverflow | not that too | 17:17 |
mindoverflow | i tell you that some of the drivers loads | 17:17 |
mindoverflow | then nothing related to grub settings | 17:17 |
mindoverflow | i didn't try to remove the quiet option | 17:17 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: if you remove the 'quiet' option, you will be able to see what exactly fails | 17:17 |
mindoverflow | ok, ill be traying it | 17:18 |
mindoverflow | and i'l be back in a while | 17:18 |
mindoverflow | thank you | 17:18 |
nikolam | I have 2 hdd`s on sata. I boot from first but i have 2 /boot partitions on both drives (since i use raid1 on second partitions) I installeed grub on second drive with grub-install and copied all data from first /boot to second. All is fine. | 17:18 |
=== nikolam is now known as nikolam-away | ||
mindoverflow | well, i'm back | 17:35 |
mindoverflow | employing the noisy option | 17:36 |
mindoverflow | it stops at | 17:36 |
mindoverflow | alert! /dev/disk/...ef60.... doesn't exist dropping to shell | 17:37 |
mindoverflow | well, maybe this cuz i installed xubuntu plugging only one drive and know i'm booting with 2 disks | 17:38 |
mindoverflow | but before there is the udev-event[2086] modprobe abnormal exit | 17:39 |
mindoverflow | the same as i get when loading the live cd | 17:39 |
Yashy | Is anyone aware of an issue on gutsy amd64 where the usb keyboard and/or mouse lock up after some uptime? | 17:41 |
Yashy | Also, it seems around every 3rd boot I have a fan (HDD? GPU?) running 100% (noisy). Right now it's quiet though. | 17:42 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: edit your /etc/fstab and use somethng like /dev/sda1 instead of UUID | 17:43 |
mindoverflow | ok, i'll try | 17:43 |
mindoverflow | but what about the udev event 2086 | 17:44 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: and same with the root= option for the kernel in your /boot/grub/menu.lst | 17:44 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: no idea, you might want to google for it | 17:44 |
mindoverflow | cuz it's this one that i'm getting when loading from the live cd | 17:44 |
mindoverflow | that's what i'm doing :) | 17:44 |
mindoverflow | cuz the disk not found is an error that happens only from my installed system | 17:45 |
mindoverflow | but prior to this i was getting the modprobe problem | 17:45 |
mindoverflow | the thing that i'm still getting but it's being ignored and stops at the final alert | 17:45 |
philphoto | having problems with usb, any help? | 17:48 |
mindoverflow | TheSheep: how would the fstab become ? | 17:49 |
mindoverflow | actually it's | 17:49 |
mindoverflow | UUID=ef608042-9080-43ef-96ea-47a980d5671a / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 17:49 |
mindoverflow | that way probabely | 17:53 |
mindoverflow | /dev/hdb2 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 | 17:53 |
mindoverflow | ok, gona replug the other disk, and retry | 17:57 |
mindoverflow | i'll be back | 17:57 |
mindoverflow | back | 18:09 |
mindoverflow | TheSheep: not yet | 18:09 |
mindoverflow | an other problem i forgot to tell you about wich is | 18:09 |
mindoverflow | check root=bootarg car /proc/cmdline | 18:10 |
mindoverflow | i'm gona try to fix it | 18:10 |
mindoverflow | and missing modules, device cat /proc/modules | 18:10 |
mindoverflow | is there any module i got to look for it or include it ?? | 18:11 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: is there anything in /proc at all? | 18:18 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: if not, do: mount /proc | 18:18 |
crewe | hey does anyone here have a SAA7130 TV tuner card? | 18:19 |

ubotu | crewe: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 18:19 |
crewe | I guess you're right, well I'm just trying to get it to work | 18:20 |
crewe | it's detected, I just cant get it to work with any tv tuner program | 18:21 |
TheSheep | crewe: any error message? | 18:21 |
crewe | nope | 18:21 |
mindoverflow | TheSheep: yes, /proc/cmdline contain the uuid | 18:21 |
TheSheep | crewe: try running these programs from a terminal | 18:21 |
crewe | right now I'm trying tvtime | 18:21 |
mindoverflow | and /modules have some drivers there | 18:21 |
mindoverflow | but how could i edit cmdline | 18:22 |
mindoverflow | i tryed gedit but it seems to be empty | 18:22 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: /boot/grub/menu.lst | 18:22 |
mindoverflow | but with cat it displays that line | 18:22 |
mindoverflow | ok | 18:22 |
TheSheep | cmdline is read-only | 18:22 |
TheSheep | it's not a real file | 18:22 |
crewe | no error from command line | 18:22 |
TheSheep | crewe: how about dmesg? | 18:23 |
crewe | what is that, I've been told to use that before but I don't know what to look for | 18:24 |
TheSheep | crewe: just type 'dmesg' in terminal | 18:24 |
crewe | I did | 18:24 |
TheSheep | crewe: preferably dmesg | less | 18:24 |
TheSheep | so that you can scroll it | 18:24 |
crewe | yeah, but I still dont' know what I'm looking for | 18:25 |
TheSheep | the most recent messages are at the bottom | 18:25 |
TheSheep | these are various system messages, mostly from kernel and kernel modules | 18:25 |
TheSheep | you can see if you device was detected, and whether the corresponding kernel modules gave any errors about it | 18:25 |
crewe | I'm seeing a lot of Ethernet stuff | 18:25 |
TheSheep | like? | 18:26 |
crewe | dropped somethier or the other on eth1 | 18:27 |
mindoverflow | TheSheep: would this be correct ?? | 18:28 |
mindoverflow | kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=/dev/hdb2 ro quiet splash | 18:28 |
TheSheep | mindoverflow: yes, maybe remove that quiet too | 18:28 |
mindoverflow | ok | 18:28 |
mindoverflow | gona try again | 18:29 |

TheSheep | crewe: those are logs from your firewall | 18:30 |
TheSheep | crewe: it's blocking some packets | 18:31 |
crewe | okay, figured, but other than that, nothing in particular | 18:31 |
TheSheep | crewe: I guess you already searched the forums? | 18:31 |
crewe | nothing comes up, well nothing relavant | 18:32 |
TheSheep | crewe: you can also ask at #ubuntu, this is a general enough thing and it has much more people | 18:32 |

artur_ | About the Xubuntu CD,what is the difference between the Live CD Desktop and Live CD Alternate. Why the first needs a computer with more RAM, while the second needs less RAM? | 20:28 |
TheSheep | artur_: alternate is not a live cd | 20:28 |
artur_ | so, just to install | 20:28 |
TheSheep | artur_: it only has the installer, not a complete working system | 20:28 |
TheSheep | artur_: but it's fater and needs less ram | 20:28 |
TheSheep | faster | 20:29 |
TheSheep | both install exactly the same thing | 20:29 |
artur_ | TheSheep: Nice. Could i install in a about 500Mhz computer ? | 20:29 |
artur_ | I'd install with the alternate... | 20:30 |
TheSheep | artur_: there is no requirement about the cpu speed, but it gets completely unusuable around pentium 200 | 20:32 |
TheSheep | artur_: I guess 500Mhz is pretty good | 20:32 |
TheSheep | (not unusable as in "doesn't work", unusable as in "it's so slow I think I'll break it into pieces!") | 20:33 |
