[01:08] Q2: the primary partition should go at the beginning, right? [01:29] I'm logging off, but if someone could answer, I'll be checking the logs. [01:30] Thanks! [03:59] Hello [03:59] I keep getting SQUASHFS errors when trying to install using the live CD [03:59] "SQUASHFS error: Unable to read fragment cache block" [04:00] "loop0: read i/o error" [04:00] Cannot open /dev/tty0 [04:00] and Input/Output error [04:00] Could this be a problem with the memory [04:00] ?

[11:07] has anyone after upgraded xubuntu 8.04 from 7.10 got randomly crash? [11:08] I am suffer on this problem. [11:10] rainleong: fraid not [11:10] rainleong: any other details you can give? [11:11] I got three problems after upgrade hardy. [11:11] first, when I use vlc play .divx file. [11:11] os will crash after few seconds. [11:12] rainleong: and it is only .divx and only vlc? [11:12] yes, seems gstreamer bug. [11:13] .divx work fine on mplayer [11:13] rainleong:did you install vlc from packages? [11:13] yes, i did [11:13] I install vlc by apt-get [11:14] second problem, I can't create desktop launcher. [11:15] did you install before or after the update? [11:16] no [11:17] rainleong: not really a yes no question... [11:18] I don't try reinstall after I upgrade 8.04 [11:18] rainleong: well I would suggest doing an 'apt-get --purge remove vlc' [11:19] then reinstall it [11:19] ok, I try this. [11:19] then, [11:19] second problem is I can't create desktop launcher. [11:19] every time I key in something in the textfile call "Name" [11:19] rainleong: I use the command line almost exclusively [11:20] rainleong: I don't even know what a launcher is [11:20] the frame will close automatically. [11:21] now I have to edit a .desktop file manually [11:21] to create desktop launcher. [11:22] this problem seem happened in xubunu 6.10. [11:22] rainleong: sorry I really don't know about this [11:22] I was expirence on this case when I use xubuntu 6.10 [11:23] after I upgrade 7.04, then until 7.10. the problem not happen again. [11:23] but I upgraded 8.04 from 7.10. [11:24] the problem return. [11:24] rainleong: I use practically only the command line, so I can't help [11:25] oh, then the last problem is [11:25] I got random crash after upgrade 8.04. [11:25] my os crash [11:26] rainleong: and this happens how often? [11:26] maybe one day. maybe one day twice. [11:27] rainleong: I haven't had any random crashes, so I would google it [11:27] the crash seem depend on the cpu loading is higher. [11:27] can someone please tell me how to make it so that when I open my file manager, thunar, it starts in a fully maximised way [11:28] homebrewcider: don't really use the GUI, sorry [11:28] I did. [11:56] if i'm creating a swap partition on an xubuntu install should it be primary or logical [12:15] stothepizzle: either one is fine. [13:04] i need some help with ssh keys: i get this error; http://paste.ubuntu.com/13287/ [13:11] voodoo: change the 'ssh-agent' line to 'eval `ssh-agent`' and it will work. [13:12] the ssh-agent command starts an agent, and prints out the variables you need to access that agent out in shell-script form... [13:12] you can either set them by hand, then, or use 'eval' on the output to set them for you. [13:13] oh... till know i was using only ssh-agent (without eval) [13:29] Does the download of xubuntu have a live cd ... try before you decide to install option? [13:39] can someone help me get thunar to start maximised every time please. [13:40] homebrewcider: hi [13:40] you could just stretch it big and then it should start to those dimensions every time you start it [13:40] hi [13:42] but it doesn't [13:42] it starts smaller every time [13:42] small every time [13:43] hi how can i install the new qt version? [14:08] homebrewcider: don't maximize with the button inthe upper right-hand corner, rather stretch the window by clicking on the edge and dragging [14:09] ah, that worked [14:09] cheers [14:09] :) [14:09] i was double-clicking the title bar as i always do [14:09] ah [14:11] the maximise icon did the same as double clicking, that is, the setting wasn't "sticking" [14:11] but the stretch thing "sticks" [14:11] thanx [14:11] ok, I'm outta here, have a good one [14:46] Hi! [14:59] I have interest in Linux cluster solutions. I want to talk to ppl with similar interest or experience in that matter. [14:59] anyone here? [15:03] Hi [15:04] i have a small problem with ssh-keys... since i've updated openssh i cannot log in usign keys... i tried regenerating the keys [15:04] no luck [15:06] vodoo, im redoing my pxeroot for that reason right now [15:07] got frustrated [15:07] do you know what's the problem? [15:07] Hm. Mine was that i couldnt launch the ssh server anymore [15:07] how did yours happen? [15:07] for me ssh-server works... it asks for password instead of launching bash [15:08] (on remote machine) [15:08] got a password? [15:08] yes [15:08] or just want to use your keys instead of logging in manually? [15:08] but and it works with password... i need the keys... i'm running some commands on remote machine [15:09] and i want them done automatically without logging on the machine [15:09] how about replacing them instead of regenerating? [15:09] if you know the password it should be easy to make new ones and send them over [15:09] i deleted all my keys first [15:10] and then created new ones [15:10] (both on remote and local machine) [15:11] and whats the issue then? [15:11] i don't know.... that's i'm trying to find out... why I cannot loggin on the remote machine using the RSA keys [15:12] path / users are correct? [15:12] checked the config? [15:13] everything used to work before updating open-ssh... i didn't check the config... le' me see [15:16] lemme know if u find something. I have to do that stuff later too [15:17] gestahlt, everything seems to be fine [15:18] the keys are in the proper directories referenced to the config? [15:19] uh in the config [15:19] yes [15:20] restarted the ssh server? [15:20] i connected to remote machine, checked the config, restarted the server, tried logging on that machine using keys and ssh localhost (worked), [15:21] hmmm [15:21] but establishing a remote ssh connection using keys doesn't work [15:21] hosts.allow hosts.deny in order? [15:21] nah [15:21] doesnt make sense [15:21] since u can connect [15:21] hrm [15:22] ah [15:22] in the config [15:22] disable password [15:22] lemme check the line [15:24] comment out passwordAuthentication [15:24] in sshd.conf [15:24] its commented already [15:24] *it's [15:24] how can you access with password then? [15:25] i don't know... maybe it should be no [15:25] (it's the default option) [15:25] I hope you have physical acess to your remote [15:26] so that you will have acess [15:26] yes... i have... [15:26] So you givin it a try? [15:27] permission denied [15:27] :) [15:27] i tried to connect [15:27] got permission denied (public key) [15:29] okay [15:29] now we a bit closer [15:39] what you doing right now vodoo? === gabkdlly is now known as gpannwitz [17:44] anyone having random freezes with Thunderbird? while browsing newsgroups [17:59] I installed xscreensaver, and it's started at login instead of gnome-screensaver.

[20:29] ok thanks [20:30] no problem. [21:30] hi [21:31] !xubuntu [21:31] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME.

[21:41] TheSheep, I'm already in Prague :) [21:42] cody-somerville: oh wow [21:42] cody-somerville: I didn't make it [21:42] No?! :( [21:42] There is still till the end of the week! [21:42] cody-somerville: sorry, I had two other conferences recently and my budget got tight [21:42] You won't be able to make it? [21:42] * cody-somerville nods. [21:42] No problem. [21:42] You can still participate remotely via voip and IRC. :) [21:55] hi all, i'm running hardy, i did an apt-get install xfce and in Settings Manager i selected the Human theme yet Thunar shows most files with blank icons, any idea? [21:56] there was something like that in the thunar faq... [21:57] i read the one at http://thunar.xfce.org/pwiki/documentation/faq but echo $XSETTINGS returns empty [21:57] even though xfce-mcs-manager is running [21:58] is xfce4-session running too? [21:58] hi all [21:59] TheSheep: yeap [21:59] violinappren: the icons look like those on that screenshot in faq? [22:00] is there a way to have an unmount option in the desktop icons in Hardy for storage devices? For some reason this release has only an eject option. [22:00] TheSheep: yes except for a djvu file and an audacity project file [22:00] pdfs, mp3s, archives all blank [22:01] hey, I [22:01] I'm using cheese with my build in webcam [22:01] violinappren: do you have the gnome-icon-theme installed? [22:02] it usually works fine, but as of today when cheese tries to access the cam (cam's light goes on, so I know it has hardware access), cheese then hard locks the system (not just X11, but system wide lock) [22:02] any idea? [22:02] if i switch to the rodent theme, the icons show up [22:02] running xubuntu on an eeepc [22:02] let me check [22:03] violinappren: I think the human theme only has a few icons and falls back to gnome for the rest [22:03] TheSheep: well i'm installing it [22:03] wickers: no idea, but you could ask on #ubuntu or look at the forums, as this is a more general issue, common to all ubuntus [22:04] wickers: at least so it seems [22:04] fair [22:04] figured I'd start here, in case this was a recent update or something that affects people using xfce [22:04] I think there was a channel for eee users spicifically too, someone might know something there [22:16] works now, thanks guys [22:40] Salut [23:24] sup all :) [23:25] i was wondering about custom icon themes and howto install them, is there a tutorial in the wiki i am missing? [23:28] just unpack them to ~/.icons [23:28] cool, thanks :)
