| ddro | Hello everyone. I'm trying to get my WPC54g card working on Xbuntu 7.10 by following this guide. http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Networking/NdisWrapper_The_Ultimate_Guide/ | 00:48 |
| ddro | I've made it to the point where I need to blacklist the driver that comes with xbuntu, and I can't get it to work | 00:48 |
| ddro | gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist does nothing when entered into the terminal | 00:49 |
| ddro | and when I go to blacklist and open it in the gui, I can't save my changes | 00:49 |
| ddro | there is a write error while I try to save. Any suggestions? | 00:50 |
| ddro | alright, by instructing to terminal to open in the folder containing the file I wanted to work on, and by replacing gedit with mousepad, I was able to complete the walkthrough. However, wireless is still not working, and the bcm43xx driver is still showing up in restricted drivers (although it isn't enabled). Can anyone help me please? | 01:12 |

| kibibyte | hi | 09:01 |
| Boxxxer | hello | 09:06 |
| Boxxxer | aanderse, are you here? | 09:06 |
| Boxxxer | i don't think you're here... i wanted to tell you something | 09:09 |
| Boxxxer | please test that Xubuntu you have on one computer which is out-of-the-box and report the bugs we were discussing about | 09:11 |
| Boxxxer | the locking screen mechanism is not working... if you right-click on the panel and then choose + Add New Item and you select 'Action Buttons' and set the 'Select action type' to 'Lock screen' that puts an icon on the panel which doesn't work (doesn't lock the screen) if you click on it | 09:14 |
| Boxxxer | maybe i'll report it myself, i just don't know where can i report a bug for xubuntu | 09:17 |
| Boxxxer | ahhh, got it: Xubuntu uses the Malone bug tracking system | 09:18 |
| arualavi | Boxxxer: take a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200665 | 09:46 |
| ubottu | arualavi: Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out | 09:46 |
| arualavi | ubottu: fine, increase timer counter yourself :-) | 09:47 |
| ubottu | arualavi: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:47 |
| arualavi | for sure :P | 09:48 |
| Boxxxer | lol | 09:50 |
| Boxxxer | arualavi, i am writing a bug report | 09:50 |
| Boxxxer | can you please tell me which package should i choose it has the bug if the lock screen mechanism is not working? | 09:52 |
| Boxxxer | is it gdm? | 09:52 |
| ablomen | xscreensaver? | 09:53 |
| Boxxxer | is xscreensaver responsible to lock the screen? | 09:53 |
| * ablomen is not sure, but it seems logical | 09:53 | |
| Boxxxer | is xscreensaver the default screen saving thing in Xubuntu? | 09:54 |
| ablomen | yep | 09:54 |
| Boxxxer | okay | 09:54 |
| Boxxxer | then this is the one i recon | 09:54 |
| ablomen | or xflock4, thats the command thats run me thinks | 09:55 |
| Boxxxer | oh | 09:55 |
| ablomen | cause whats the problem exactly? | 09:56 |
| Boxxxer | well... | 09:56 |
| Boxxxer | The lock screen mechanism doesn't work in Xubuntu at all. If you right-click on the panel and then choose + Add New Item and you select 'Action Buttons' and set the 'Select action type' to 'Lock screen' that puts an icon on the panel which doesn't work (doesn't lock the screen) if you click on it. This is a major bug. | 09:56 |
| ablomen | ah ok yeah i just found that myself | 09:57 |
| ablomen | you have to isntall xlockmore manually :) | 09:57 |
| Boxxxer | xlockmore? | 09:57 |
| ablomen | that fixes it | 09:57 |
| ablomen | yeah | 09:57 |
| Boxxxer | manually | 09:57 |
| Boxxxer | hmm | 09:57 |
| ablomen | sudo apt-get install xlockmore | 09:57 |
| ablomen | run that | 09:57 |
| Boxxxer | okay | 09:57 |
| ablomen | and then try the locking button again | 09:57 |
| ablomen | it should work\ | 09:57 |
| ablomen | after that, post a bug that xlockmore is not a dependancy of xfce/xscreensaver/xflock4 whatever, but it should be | 09:58 |
| Boxxxer | yeah | 09:58 |
| Boxxxer | you're right | 09:58 |
| ablomen | yay \o/ | 09:59 |
| ablomen | ;) | 09:59 |
| Boxxxer | ;) | 09:59 |
| Boxxxer | lol | 09:59 |
| Boxxxer | okay now it works | 09:59 |
| ablomen | cool :) | 10:00 |
| Boxxxer | i'll just tell them that xlockmore should be installed by default | 10:00 |
| ablomen | yeah :) | 10:01 |

| Boxxxer | okay i need to ask some more | 10:03 |
| Boxxxer | i wanna set my WWW button on my multimedia keyboard to open Firefox | 10:03 |
| Boxxxer | how can i do that? | 10:04 |
| ablomen | http://linuxhacks.org/tutorials/jakes_xfce4_multimedia_keyboard_setup.php | 10:04 |
| ablomen | dunno if it still works with xorg | 10:04 |
| ablomen | but this is the first thing i found | 10:04 |
| Boxxxer | this is an overkill for me | 10:06 |
| Boxxxer | ubuntu has this app labeled Keyboard Preferences | 10:06 |
| ablomen | yeah there is one in xfce too, but it doesnt seem to support my extra buttons | 10:07 |
| Boxxxer | it is? | 10:07 |
| ablomen | you can look at xbindkeys and xbindkeys-config | 10:07 |
| Boxxxer | thanks | 10:07 |
| ablomen | those are pretty easy to set-up | 10:07 |
| ablomen | and always worked pretty good for me | 10:07 |
| Boxxxer | darn | 10:09 |
| Boxxxer | i have installed both but it doesn't work | 10:09 |
| Boxxxer | i think i'll switch to Ubuntu :/ | 10:10 |
| DaveKong | I was looking on the web for a solution to a problem with connecting to a network on my laptop and found some posts which suggest my kernal needs to be configured differently to support my card | 10:10 |
| DaveKong | I got these instructions about it: The 2.6 kernel includes this driver as a module called b44. It is accessible in the kernel configuration under Device Drivers/Networking support/Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit)/. Select "EISA, VLB, PCI and on board controllers", and "Broadcom 4400". You may compile it as a module named b44. | 10:10 |
| DaveKong | can anyone tell me how to config to that? | 10:10 |
| Boxxxer | please read this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/234934 | 10:12 |
| ubottu | Boxxxer: Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out | 10:12 |

| Boxxxer | do you happen to know what's the package name of Orage (calendar)? | 10:23 |
| Boxxxer | is it orage? | 10:23 |
| Boxxxer | it is right? | 10:23 |

| kripz | can anyone recommend a good text editor with syntax highlighting, intellisense/autocompletion? | 12:57 |
| TheSheep | kripz: eclipse | 12:58 |
| TheSheep | kripz: or vim, if you are manly enough | 12:58 |
| kripz | TheSheep, Eclipse is well known for its Java IDE. However, there are Eclipse base language IDEs for most of the popular languages. Some are popular Eclipse open source project, such as CDT, and others are popular open source projects and commercial solutions. | 13:01 |
| kripz | TheSheep, does that mean theres a different program for each language? | 13:01 |
| kripz | On the download page there is different ones for cpp, php etc | 13:02 |
| TheSheep | kripz: there are plugins | 13:02 |
| TheSheep | kripz: also, it's in the repos | 13:02 |
| TheSheep | note that since it's java, it's slow as hell and always memory-hungry | 13:02 |
| kripz | hmm | 13:03 |
| TheSheep | but it has the best autocompletion around, except for commercial products | 13:03 |
| TheSheep | there are plugins for gtksourceview widget that add autocompletion to practically any gtk editor | 13:04 |
| TheSheep | http://gtksourcecomple.sourceforge.net/ | 13:04 |
| TheSheep | not sure how it works though | 13:04 |

| chewed-on | Man there are so many Xubuntu files, which one is the Xubuntu operating system ? | 17:01 |
| chewed-on | this maybe xubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso ? | 17:01 |
| chewed-on | hfsdo: do you use Xubuntu ? | 17:02 |
| hfsdo | sometimes | 17:02 |
| chewed-on | hfsdo: sometimes ? | 17:03 |

| hfsdo | windows cause of my wireless | 17:03 |
| chewed-on | oh ok. | 17:03 |
| chewed-on | hfsdo: is Xubuntu any good ? | 17:03 |
| hfsdo | it is lightweight | 17:04 |
| hfsdo | but i rather us gnome than xfce | 17:04 |
| chewed-on | Meaning. . .it' will have trouble running softwares because it didn't install all the important files ? :P | 17:04 |
| hfsdo | i didnt have problems with that | 17:05 |
| chewed-on | hfsdo: Gnome is user friendly :) I use it as well. | 17:05 |
| hfsdo | i know i can configure gnome easier than xfce | 17:06 |
| chewed-on | :) | 17:06 |
| y4ndexx | xfce is good. | 17:09 |
| y4ndexx | I'm struggling between using Gnome and xfce. | 17:09 |
| y4ndexx | I'm wondering, is OOo not included with Xubuntu because OOo uses Gnome/KDE? | 17:10 |
| hfsdo | you can install OOo on xfce too | 17:10 |
| y4ndexx | But what is the reason? For lightweightness? | 17:11 |
| hfsdo | ligther desktop environment | 17:11 |
| Rabbitbunny | I just did a dist-upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04, gdm show two sessions with xfce, but neither will give me xfce. gnome and kde both work. xfce gets past the hamster and stalls. hints? | 17:14 |
