[00:06] <Mannequin> hi, I've written a little shell script that starts-up my wi-fi connection
[00:06] <Mannequin> it must be run as sudo
[00:07] <Mannequin> I would like to know where can I put it so it runs on start-up, both for my gf user and my user
[00:07] <zoredache> Mannequin: does it run after the gui is started?
[00:08] <zoredache> or does it matter?
[00:08] <Mannequin> mmmmm, I think it doesn't matter. All commands are CLI commands
[00:08] <Mannequin> like iwconfig and iwpriv
[00:09] <zoredache> is the interface built-in to the computer?
[00:09] <zoredache> you could update your /etc/network/interfaces file to call the script directly
[00:09] <zoredache> anyway since it is network related I would put it in /etc/network
[00:10] <zoredache> then either start it with an 'up' cause in the interfaces file or call set it up as an autostart either per user or in at the system level
[00:17] <Mannequin> zoredache: yes, the interface is built-in
[00:17] <Mannequin> how do I run an script from the interfaces file?
[00:17] <TheSheep> custom local scripts should go to /etc/rc.local
[00:22] <ron_o> I sort of asked this question before but I still don't know for sure the effect of what I'd like to do. I'm trying to get mplayer rc2 installed. But the repos only have rc1 installed.
[00:22] <ron_o> if I install mplayer from a .deb file, can I have two instances of mplayer on my system?
[00:22] <ron_o> right now if I remove my one mplayer then other apps I have will be removed as well.
[00:23] <ron_o> I'm kind of confused as to how to go about this.
[00:23] <j1mc> hm, ron_o ... sorry, i don't know the answer to that one.
[00:23] <zoredache> ron_o: there are ways, but is is tricky... there is an option to have a .deb extracted to an alternate directory
[00:23] <ron_o> zoredache, yah, that's what I'm after.
[00:24] <ron_o> I'll look into that option.
[00:24] <ron_o> mplayer was just updated too, but to another version of rc1.. damn.
[00:24] <ron_o> so I figure it's going to be a long time for it to get to rc2..
[00:26] <zoredache> ron_o: another option might be to get the source for the package and manually build it so that it will run from the /usr/local directory
[00:26] <ron_o> I can do that too. thanks.. :)
[00:27] <Lobster> how can I get the settings-manager for compiz in xubuntu?
[00:27] <Lobster> oh... nevermind
[00:28] <j1mc> Lobster: :)
[00:37] <ron_o> hmm, it says here that mplayer rc2 is in multivers: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mplayer
[00:37] <ron_o> I have multiverse..
[00:38] <j1mc> ron_o: are you running the development release of hardy?
[00:39] <ron_o> no.
[00:40] <j1mc> ron_o: so it looks like rc2 is in hardy (which will be released officially in about a month), but you aren't running that version yet.
[00:40] <ron_o> I see. I thought I was. sorry.
[00:40] <j1mc> :)  np
[00:40] <ron_o> a month. I can wait that long. :)
[00:41] <j1mc> :)  cool.  hardy is shaping up pretty nicely, so it should be a good release.  at least i think so.  :)
[00:44] <Stroganoff> where does Thunar store the favorite folder pane?
[00:44] <Stroganoff> the folder shortcuts
[00:47] <TheSheep> Stroganoff: in ~/.gtk-bookmarks
[00:47] <Stroganoff> thx
[00:48] <ron_o> the only reason why I wanted mplayer upgraded was because rc2 will fast forward flash and rc1 will not. But vlc does it just fine. I can stand another  month here. :)
[02:18] <kommer> Can anyone help me with screen resolution in xubuntu please?
[02:18] <HACKhalo2> is it for the login?
[02:19] <kommer> the login?
[02:19] <HACKhalo2> when you login, sorry
[02:19] <kommer> I can't change my res past 800x600, I'm trying to get 1152x864.
[02:20] <HACKhalo2> what setting is it on, driver wise?
[02:20] <kommer> Screens and graphics settings you mean?
[02:20] <HACKhalo2> yea
[02:21] <kommer> I've tried changing that as I get "Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode" every time I start up yet to no avail, the changes don't get saved
[02:22] <kommer> driver is set to vesa
[02:22] <HACKhalo2> oh, sorry, i don't know how to fix that problem
[02:22] <HACKhalo2> heh
[02:22] <HACKhalo2> did you just install ubuntu?
[02:22] <kommer> yesterday
[02:22] <HACKhalo2> is there anything on it thats important?
[02:23] <kommer> not really
[02:23] <HACKhalo2> reinstall
[02:23] <kommer> there must be a way to fix without reinstalling
[02:23] <kommer> it's just the resolution which is annoying :(
[02:25] <HACKhalo2> well, try it
[02:25] <HACKhalo2> i had to reinstall twicee because it screwed up
[02:26] <kommer> I'll think about it, thanks for the suggestion
[02:46] <burntcheese> hey anyone here running xbuntu on an eeepc?
[02:47] <burntcheese> or tried to install xubuntu to an SD card?
[06:38] <ArmyMan007> hello? anybody home?
[06:43] <zoredache> perhaps
[06:43] <zoredache> !anyone
[06:43] <ubotu> 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?
[06:54] <ArmyMan007> ubotu -> because usually people don't answer...
[07:05] <zoredache> if you don't ask your question they will never have a chance

[09:10] <Lokian> hi all
[09:10] <KojiroAK> hi
[09:10] <ere4si> !hi
[09:10] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu!
[09:39] <gabkdlly> if I forward email to localhost using smtp, where does it go?
[09:40] <Lokian> the some place that lost socks go
[09:40] <gabkdlly> really? big black hole style?
[09:45] <Lokian> No idea
[09:45] <Lokian> I'm completly new to xubuntu and linux in general, sorry
[09:45] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to complete my update cycle... last week after an update failed to complete i am left with a prompt on the update icon that says 'This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies'
[09:45] <Lokian> Hell, I can't even get VNC server to work
[09:51] <Lokian> Man, is it so hard to find a mobo with a built in dual nics
[09:52] <Lokian> that doesn't cost a small fourtune
[09:52] <Lokian> or is that fortune..
[09:55] <ere4si> Lokian: have you installed the server on the box you want to connect to?
[09:57] <ere4si> and edited the /etc/hosts files to add the ips' of the comps?
[10:12] <Lokian> ere4si: Yes
[10:12] <Lokian> ere4si: waaaiitt.. etc/hosts file?
[10:12] <ere4si> Lokian: yep
[10:13] <Lokian> I've never read that in any of the guids I have seen
[10:13] <Lokian> guides*
[10:15] <ere4si> Lokian: on both comps - your /etc/hosts file should list the ips' and hostname of the other comps
[10:15] <ere4si> s/on/all
[10:15] <Lokian> But I only run linux on one box. total. period.
[10:16] <ere4si> Lokian: ahh - windows connecting to linux?
[10:16] <ere4si> or the other way?
[10:16] <Lokian> ere4si: Yup
[10:16] <ere4si> one min
[10:17] <Lokian> ere4si: I'm trying to make a firewall/proxy whatever that just runs moblock so I don't have to run peergaurdian on each machine
[10:19] <ere4si> Lokian: don't do anything like that - haven't run windows since 2002 - was going to read a guide for the vnc part and walk you through it
[10:20] <ere4si> Lokian: how are you trying to connect? -what are you typing/using pls?
[10:21] <Lokian> ere4si: What's a good wireless Mini PCI or Cardbus card for linux?
[10:21] <ere4si> I don't do wireless either hehe
[10:21] <ere4si> sorry
[10:24] <Lokian> oh poop
[10:25] <Lokian> ere4si I'm trying to connect on my LAN?
[10:26] <ere4si> Lokian: vnc will display your linux desktop on another comp - you need a windows prog to do that
[10:26] <ord> can anyone help me with a wierd problem?
[10:27] <Lokian> ok?
[10:28] <ord> I can't wake the computer up after hour or so
[10:28] <ord> I checked the power management and configured the screen and HDD to NEVER sleep
[10:28] <ord> but still, after hour or so, I can't wake him up
[10:28] <ord> any ideas?
[10:32] <ere4si> ord: it is probably a bios setting
[10:33] <ere4si> Lokian: look at putty as a windows app
[10:33] <ord> ere4si: so i need to check the bios for power manager?
[10:34] <ere4si> ord: there will be an option - they come under diff names for diff bios's
[10:46] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to complete my update cycle... last week after an update failed to complete i am left with a prompt on the update icon that says 'This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies'
[10:48] <ord> ere4si: thank you
[10:49] <ere4si> ord: found the option?
[10:49] <ere4si> :)
[10:50] <ord> ere4si: i found power managment
[10:50] <ord> most of the things looked fine
[10:50] <ord> only changed the video... to off
[10:50] <ord> hope that will do the trick
[10:51] <ere4si> good luck :)
[10:51] <ord> thanx
[10:53] <mikubuntu> can anyone tell me how to complete my update cycle... last week after an update failed to complete i am left with a prompt on the update icon that says 'This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies'
[11:05] <Lokian> Does anyone know if Remote Admin works with linux?
[11:22] <killown> hi, I cannot add item XFCE main menu to xfce4-panel because it disappear can anyone help me?
[11:24] <ere4si> killown: if you right click the panel and select "add new item" is it not there?
[11:25] <killown> ere4si does it not
[11:25] <killown> ere4si, I don't know how I can add it again
[11:26] <killown> xfdesktop-menu shom me this menu
[11:26] <killown> show*
[11:30] <notinuse2> just a question guys, i have a sun ultrasparc 2 450mhz cpu with around 256 maybe 512mb ram with xubuntu run on it fine?
[11:31] <ere4si> killown: do you have a file in your home folder   .config/xfce4/desktop/menu.xml   ?
[11:32] <ere4si> notinuse2: should be ok :)
[11:32] <killown> ere4si, nop
[11:32] <notinuse2> Also, it didn't come with a video card for some reason, can i just bung any old pci card in there?
[11:32] <ere4si> killown: that is the file the menu is made from - one min
[11:33] <killown> ere4si, where I can found it?
[11:33] <killown> menu.xml
[11:33] <ere4si> killown: I'll paste mine - then you can copy
[11:33] <ere4si> !paste
[11:33] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[11:34] <killown> ok ty
[11:34] <notinuse2> also, im guessing xubuntu is a lighter weight version of ubuntu?
[11:35] <Lokian> heh, I use xubuntu..
[11:36] <ere4si> killown: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61450/ - make sure you put it in the right file name - the ctrl + alt + bksp to restart and login then right click the pane and add new item
[11:37] <notinuse2> its amazing if it runs well on this, its bloody ten years old
[11:37] <ere4si> notinuse2: it uses xfce which is lighter then gnome that ubuntu uses
[11:37] <killown> ere4si, thanks a lot dude
[11:37] <ere4si> np :)
[11:37] <killown> brb
[11:38] <notinuse2> i presume i will most likely want a lightweight browser, any recommendations?
[11:38] <ere4si> notinuse2: I use it on a 450mhz amd k6 with 256 - it's not fast but more than usable
[11:39] <ere4si> epiphany is supposed to be light - I use firefox still
[11:39] <notinuse2> i might have a look at fluxbuntu
[11:39] <notinuse2> might you, i will most likely be buying 3 more cpu's :P they go for $12 on ebay
[11:40] <notinuse2> mind*
[11:41] <ere4si> fluxbuntu still has issues - I use the server install with fluxbox on my main comp - 40mb mem used at boot :)
[11:41] <notinuse2> what kind of issues D:
[11:42] <ere4si> from what I've read there is some issues with some h/ware
[11:42] <notinuse2> i will download both :D
[11:42] <Lokian> I use xubuntu on a PII 300 with 192MB's of RAM
[11:42] <ere4si> have fun :)
[11:43] <notinuse2> i will
[11:49] <notinuse2> it would seem fluxubuntu doesnt even have a sparc image :/ yay
[11:50] <ere4si> hehe
[11:50] <ere4si> it is still young :)
[11:51] <notinuse2> huh, i dont see one under xubuntu  either
[11:53] <notinuse2> found one, but it was under alternative installation cd is that a problem?
[11:54] <ere4si> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ports/releases/7.10/release/
[11:54] <ere4si> The alternate is just a text installation - no live cd
[11:54] <ere4si> same os at the end
[11:55] <notinuse2> huh, i might grab it for my ps3 aswell :D
[11:55] <ere4si> grab the right ones
[11:55] <notinuse2> xubuntu-7.10-alternate-sparc.iso << is the correct one yeah
[11:56] <ere4si> yep - looks right
[11:56] <ere4si> but not for the pent :)
[11:56] <ere4si> hehe
[11:57] <notinuse2> Playstation 3 , not p3 :P
[11:57] <ere4si> oops
[11:58] <ere4si> aren't they pentiums?
[11:58] <notinuse2> Nope, which is why they run a completey different ISO, its a properity CPU designed by Toshiba Sony and IBM
[11:59] <ere4si> there you go - the older ones were weren't they?
[11:59] <notinuse2> XBOX1 ran a Pentium 3, XBOX360 runs a 3 Core PPC CPU and the PS1 and PS2 both ran properity stuff
[12:00] <ere4si> kk
[12:03] <TheSheep> I think ps3 is 64 core... :)
[12:04] <notinuse2> I would go into detail but it would bore you guys (:

[14:55] <j1mc> Lobster: do you havea launchpad account?

[14:56] <Lobster> actuallly its a wrong localization and not really a bug
[14:57] <j1mc> Lobster: ok.  what's the problem exactly?
[14:58] <Lobster> the options dialog od quicklauncher-pannel-applet is french
[14:58] <j1mc> what language should it be?
[14:58] <Lobster> englich, I installed without any localization
[14:59] <Lobster> *english
[14:59] <j1mc> huh... it's the same way for me!
[15:00] <j1mc> it shouldn't be that way
[15:02] <j1mc> i'll see what package that belongs to.
[15:03] <j1mc> Lobster: would you like me to walk you through reporting the bug?
[15:05] <Lobster> hm okay
[15:06] <Lobster> Ill get a launchpad account

[15:06] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 179917 in xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin "Quicklauncher settings display French text in English environment" [Low,Fix released]
[15:06] <j1mc> look at that bug
[15:06] <Lobster> okay
[15:08] <j1mc> Lobster: do you see how it says, "this bug was fixed with version 1.9.4-1ubuntu2?
[15:09] <j1mc> you can tell the version of your installed program by typing "dpkg -l [name of package]"
[15:09] <j1mc> in this case, dpkg -l xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin
[15:10] <j1mc> it says that the problem is fixed, but it's not.
[15:10] <j1mc> not in this version.
[15:11] <Lobster> yes

[15:11] <j1mc> make sure to include the version number, and steps to reproduce the problem.
[15:16] <Lobster> hmm...
[15:19] <j1mc> Lobster: i thought of something.  it may be that you don't have the full english language pack installed.
[15:20] <j1mc> when you enter text into a text box in firefox, does it show all words as misspelled?  (underlining them?)
[15:20] <j1mc> i'm testing by installing the english language packs, and will report back momentarily
[15:21] <j1mc> brb
[15:25] <j1mc> Lobster: yeah, i think it's still a bug.
[15:26] <Lobster> hm Im not usin firefox, but I think I don't have any spellchecking at all...
[15:26] <j1mc> sorry abou that... different issue.
[15:26] <j1mc> do you want to report the bug?

[17:16] <birgi> is it related to xfce or my graphics card driver maybe?

[17:21] <birgi> right now i am using that fglrx driver, but for example fglrxinfo does not show up the correct card
[17:46] <the_alamo> could anyone suggest an app that would be good for making a stop-motion video from pictures?
[18:43] <gerro> the_alamo: some use short imagemagick scripts to thread together snapshots of desktop to make videos I'm sure you could do the same

[19:29] <TheSheep> c-ron: and they switch the terminal mode
[19:29] <TheSheep> c-ron: it's not a bug
[19:29] <TheSheep> c-ron: you can use less instead of cat, it will eascpae those characters
[19:33] <c-ron> nice
[19:34] <c-ron> thanks TheSheep
[20:13] <Stroganoff> xfprint is unable to find my printing backend
[20:13] <Stroganoff> hence i cant print with mousepad and such
[20:13] <Stroganoff> printing from abiword or gimp works fine
[20:15] <Stroganoff> i got xfprint, cupsys and cupsys-client
[20:15] <Stroganoff> what am i missing?
[20:28] <Stroganoff> ok i fixed it with the control panel ^^
[20:38] <martin_zgr> hello, i cannot find any place to talk about cinepaint HDR plugin,anyone knows about any irc channel?
[20:41] <phfnet> i'm waking up a P3 128 MB computer using mini.iso in "cli" mode
[20:42] <phfnet> i'd like to run a minimal but pretty wm on top of that
[20:42] <phfnet> will "aptitude install xubuntu-desktop" do the trick, or will it install too much?
[20:42] <phfnet> are there lighter options that still look good?
[20:42] <siggjen> i believe it will be sluggish
[20:43] <siggjen> fluxbox is oki if you got the time to configure
[20:43] <phfnet> fluxbox didn't come with network boot disk afaik
[20:43] <phfnet> so how do i configure it from mini.iso cli result?
[20:44] <phfnet> or apt-get it
[20:44] <phfnet> (i've got time :)
[20:44] <siggjen> apt-get install fluxbox might get you some way, or better google it
[20:44] <siggjen> i've never used fluxbox on ubuntu
[20:46] <phfnet> ok, thanks, found something that's close enough
[20:47] <siggjen> !fluxbox
[20:47] <ubotu> fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox
[20:47] <siggjen> there might be thre right place
[20:48] <phfnet> thanks
[21:19] <BunnyRevolution> what is the equivalent to yakuake in xubuntu?
[21:21] <BunnyRevolution> xubunt lamp server is /var/www ?
[21:21] <BunnyRevolution> er, apache under LAMP
[21:35] <BunnyRevolution> anybody home?
[21:36] <siggjen> nope
[21:37] <BunnyRevolution> i understand that xubuntu is going through a transition?
[21:37] <siggjen> i have no idea
[21:39] <Stroganoff> BunnyRevolution: xterm
[21:40] <Stroganoff> BunnyRevolution: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[21:43] <BunnyRevolution> does xterm drop down like yakuake?
[21:43] <BunnyRevolution> with key stroke?
[21:43] <Stroganoff> nope
[21:45] <Stroganoff> BunnyRevolution: tilda and yeahconsole are what ur looking for
[21:46] <Stroganoff> both ones are in the repos
[21:49] <BunnyRevolution> yep, that is what i was looking for.  the gui is not as polished, but at least i won't have to search for it with a mouse
[21:53] <BunnyRevolution> beta won't get past the partitioner
[22:00] <BunnyRevolution> is there a way to move the "applications" menu to the bottom?
[22:00] <BunnyRevolution> and replace it with a button?
[22:04] <Stroganoff> yes
[22:12] <FFEMTcJ> im setting up a computer with ubuntu.. im going to use this computer to learn and play with, so im expecting to "break it" often just  because of a lack of knowledge.. ive heard that you can put different things such as /etc and /usr on different partitions to lessen the
[22:12] <FFEMTcJ>  "impact" if you have to reinstal so that you dont loose everything.. Can someone tell me if this is a good idea, and if so, whaht all  should I put on different partitions?
[22:12] <FFEMTcJ> s/ubuntu/xubuntu
[22:12] <oem> hi guys whats up
[22:13] <suebuntu> my first time here just checking it out
[22:16] <HACKhalo2> well, welcome to Xubuntu!
[22:36] <Whyvas> is there a command line xorg config?
[22:36] <Whyvas> like XF86config
[22:37] <Whyvas> ?
[22:37] <Whyvas> I had to install it using a diffrent laptop that it's going to be used in because the cdrom drive of the other laptop is dead
[22:37] <Whyvas> now the xorg is screwed
[22:37] <Whyvas> can I make it re auto detect somehow?
[22:41] <BunnyRevolution> reboot to rescue mode and then fix it
[22:41] <BunnyRevolution> FFEMTcJ: /home is all you really need, but you can also put a /storage partition for files and folders you want to keep
[22:42] <BunnyRevolution> i normally do, /, /home, and /storage
[22:42] <BunnyRevolution> where storage is a partition where i store only data
[22:42] <Whyvas> BunnyRevolution how do I fix it?
[22:42] <Whyvas> I can get to the command lne
[22:43] <TheSheep> Whyvas: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[22:44] <FFEMTcJ> BunnyRevolution: ty
[22:44] <TheSheep> FFEMTcJ: normally you'd put the sotrage in /mnt or /media :)
[22:44] <TheSheep> FFEMTcJ: like /mnt/storage
[22:45] <TheSheep> but you can mount it in your home as well
[22:45] <BunnyRevolution> FFEMTcJ: yes, normally
[22:45] <FFEMTcJ> what is mnt?
[22:45] <BunnyRevolution> i always seperate my data from my home.  as i rm -rf *.* from my home dir from time to time
[22:46] <FFEMTcJ> what do you put in your home dir?
[22:46] <TheSheep> FFEMTcJ: just a directory where you normally mount things
[22:46] <FFEMTcJ> ic
[22:47] <BunnyRevolution> FFEMTcJ: your home directory contains things like .rc files, etc.
[22:47] <FFEMTcJ> k
[22:47] <BunnyRevolution> basically your user configuration
[22:48] <BunnyRevolution> you wont see most of the files unless you "ls -ax"
[22:48] <BunnyRevolution> most of them are .hidden files
[22:48] <TheSheep> BunnyRevolution: why -x?
[22:48] <TheSheep> BunnyRevolution: you don't like columns?
[22:49] <BunnyRevolution> i hate columns
