[12:29] <suRs> how do i download  it?
[12:30] <TheSheep> suRs: with synaptic
[12:30] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, can you test xubuntu-docs in hardy-proposed?
[12:31] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: I'm no good with docbook
[12:31] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: I tried to get into it several times, but it's too complicated for me
[12:31] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, you just need to make sure the package installs and translations are present :)
[12:32] <cody-somerville> bug #162403
[12:33] <suRs> i installed it now
[12:33] <Myrtti> bug 162403

[12:33] <suRs> hi myrrti
[12:33] <Myrtti> hi suRs
[12:34] <suRs> so odd after install what do i do next?
[12:34] <TheSheep> No results for search #162403
[12:34] <cody-somerville> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-docs/+bug/162403
[12:35] <Odd-rationale> suRs: you google "how to configure conky" ;)
[12:35] <suRs> alright
[12:36] <cody-somerville> Odd-rationale, :P
[12:36] <cody-somerville> suRs, http://conky.sourceforge.net/documentation.html
[12:36] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: I still don't understand what am I supposed to do?
[12:37] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, I have uploaded a new version of xubuntu-docs to hardy-proposed
[12:37] <cody-somerville> It needs to be tested before it can be moved to hardy-updates
[12:37] <cody-somerville> To test it, you simply need to install the version from hardy-proposed
[12:39] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: and then?
[12:39] <suRs> i need to get a script?
[12:39] <suRs> do i need to make a map named .conky? in /home/suey?
[12:39] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, If you could check to see if translations are installed correctly, that would be great.
[12:40] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: how?
[12:41] <TheSheep> there are only changelog.gz  copyright
[12:41] <Odd-rationale> suRs: yes, you need a config file in ~/.conky
[12:41] <TheSheep> in /usr/share/docs/xubuntu-docs
[12:42] <Odd-rationale> anyways, i'm going to see if i can catch a few more moments of sleep...
[12:42] <TheSheep> cody-somerville: the files in /usr/share/xubuntu-docs/pl are English
[12:43] <suRs> yeah i found it
[12:43] <suRs> shall i make a map named .conky?
[12:43] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, thats probably because no one translated it into pl
[12:44] <TheSheep> lazy bums :P
[12:44] <suRs> how do i create te folder?
[12:44] <suRs> i cant just right klick and create one do i have do make by terminal?
[12:45] <TheSheep> suRs: you right-click and select the very first option that says 'Create folder...'
[12:45] <suRs> mm i cant..
[12:45] <TheSheep> suRs: what stops you?
[12:45] <suRs> nothing its just black i can klick it
[12:46] <TheSheep> suRs: you're not talking about thunar?
[12:46] <suRs> im talking about conky
[12:46] <TheSheep> maybe you should use thunar to create folders
[12:46] <suRs> in usr/share/doc/xubuntudoc/ <-- i can create a map
[12:47] <suRs> cant*
[12:47] <suRs> it wont let me  create a map or i cant even copy one in there
[12:47] <suRs> folder
[12:47] <TheSheep> that's because you are a normal user and that directory is a system one, you don't have write permissions there
[12:48] <TheSheep> suRs: you can start thunar as root, but careful with that: gksu thunar
[12:48] <Odd-rationale> suRs: what are you trying to do? create a .conky file in your home directory?
[12:49] <suRs> well you told me to create a .conky in usr/share/doc/xubuntudoc/  right?
[12:49] <Odd-rationale> no...
[12:49] <suRs> were i should put the config file later?
[12:49] <TheSheep> suRs: no, I was talking to cody-somerville
[12:50] <suRs> hmm im confused :S
[12:50] <suRs> were should i crete the .conky?
[12:50] <Odd-rationale> suRs: probably in ~/
[12:50] <TheSheep> suRs: ignore everything I said then, it wasn't to you :)
[12:50] <suRs> odd were is that?
[12:50] <suRs> home?
[12:51] <cody-somerville> suRs, http://conky.sourceforge.net/docs.html
[12:51] <Odd-rationale> suRs: /home/<username>

[12:53] <cody-somerville> suRs, Did you not look at the link I gave you? :)
[12:53] <cody-somerville> suRs, It gives you very clear instructions.
[12:53] <Odd-rationale> i never cared much for conky myself...
[12:53] <suRs> well i didnt have time xD
[12:53] <suRs> im doing it now
[12:54] <poopuser> hi. moved home on separate partition and now xface is whining about .dmrc need to have 644 permission (or something) and it says that home should be owned only by user and only user can have privilages.so what do i need to do with .dmrc and what 'options' i need to set in fstab for home partition?
[12:54] <TheSheep> chmod 644 .dmrc
[12:54] <poopuser> thx and about fstab?
[12:55] <cody-somerville> TheSheep, can you report your success on that bug?
[12:55] <Odd-rationale> suRs: did you do the command yet?
[12:55] <suRs> gzip: /usr/share/doc/conky/examples/conkyrc.sample.gz: No such file or directory
[12:55] <suRs> yah i got this
[12:57] <Odd-rationale> :( too bad. looks like you'll have to make your own from scratch...
[12:57] <Odd-rationale> read the docs...
[12:57] <Odd-rationale> there are endless ways to configure conky...
[13:04] <suRs> hay odd
[13:04] <suRs> if i dont have section "module" can i make one ?
[13:07] <suRs> like this
[13:07] <suRs> couse i  didnt find the section module i did this

[13:07] <suRs>          Load            "dbe"
[13:07] <suRs> EndSection
[13:07] <suRs> i created my own is that possible?
[13:07] <suRs> in sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[13:08] <TheSheep> suRs: yes
[13:09] <suRs> kubuntu and xubuntu are amost the samme=
[13:09] <suRs> ?
[13:09] <suRs> right?
[13:10] <cody-somerville> suRs, no.
[13:10] <cody-somerville> Kubuntu uses the KDE desktop environment.
[13:11] <suRs> alright
[13:11] <cody-somerville> :)
[13:17] <suRs> thay whant me to make an autostart app for conky
[13:17] <suRs> to write chmod a+x .conky_start.sh
[13:17] <suRs> but were should i put that in description or in name or in termal?
[13:18] <TheSheep> terminal

[13:34] <cody-somerville> suRs, I'm sure you can. Just read the documentation I sent you :)

[13:35] <poopuser> ; |
[13:35] <poopuser> thx anyway
[13:36] <cody-somerville> Then it sounds like a bug.
[13:36] <cody-somerville> I've heard other people report similar difficulties.
[13:37] <siggjen> if you got a keyboard with different sets of funktion key sets it might be you have to activate the usual funktion keys
[13:39] <poopuser> siggjen:i am not sure but my keyset seems defoult
[13:39] <siggjen> you can try with and without funktion keyset
[13:40] <poopuser> ok so...how do i do it(yes newb)?
[13:41] <siggjen> i usually hit the F or function key on my keyboard, not all keybards has these extra keysets tho

[13:58] <XwarlokX82> hey ya'll i've got an issue at hand with 8.04. When i try to install it, the installer will always freeze at 5% when trying to write the partitions to my drive, i've checked both cds i've burned (alternate and live cd) ran md5sum on both isos i downloaded, etc...am i looking at some time of drive issue here?
[13:58] <saaa> it's odd that you need help?
[13:58] <cody-somerville> suRs, Please just ask your question.
[13:58] <suRs> alright
[13:58] <cody-somerville> XwarlokX82, weird :/
[13:58] <XwarlokX82> cody-somerville, very...and ive been puzzling over it for two weeks now.
[13:59] <cody-somerville> XwarlokX82, This is with the alternative or desktop cd?
[13:59] <suRs> http://conky.sourceforge.net/docs.html
[13:59] <XwarlokX82> cody-somerville, the alternate cd and the live cd
[13:59] <suRs> look here and thay ask somting about ./configure
[13:59] <suRs> but i dont have it
[14:00] <saaa> you don't have ./configure? its a script
[14:00] <saaa> coming with the source
[14:00] <cody-somerville> suRs, Correct.
[14:00] <cody-somerville> suRs, Please don't just run commands you see.
[14:00] <suRs> hm
[14:01] <suRs> ur all mean :/
[14:01] <cody-somerville> suRs, There is no need for you to run ./configure as conky is already compiled and installed for you.
[14:01] <cody-somerville> suRs, mean?! :(
[14:01] <saaa> :D
[14:01] <saaa> ur cute :p
[14:01] <suRs> yeah but i whant to change stuff like
[14:01] <suRs> colour and posiotion
[14:01] <saaa> suRs ur a girl? :p
[14:02] <suRs> yes
[14:02] <suRs> so stop whining about me beeing a bit slow!
[14:02] <cody-somerville> suRs, Those are changed in the config file.
[14:02] <cody-somerville> Look at the "Configuration Settings" section.
[14:02] <suRs> aaaaa
[14:03] <suRs> how do i load it?
[14:03] <Odd-rationale> sorry, suRs, i fell back asleep.. i would love to help you, but i got to be heading out soon. Good luck!
[14:03] <suRs> bye odd :D
[14:03] <suRs> thanks for ur help :D
[14:03] <Odd-rationale> cody-somerville is good at these stuff himself...
[14:04] <suRs> cody im in my .conkyrc file were i can see all texts
[14:04] <suRs> is it there you mean or ?
[14:05] <cody-somerville> suRs, As the document states: An easy way to force Conky to reload your ~/.conkyrc: "killall -SIGUSR1 conky". Saves you the trouble of having to kill and then restart. You can now also do the same with SIGHUP.

[16:09] <TheSheep> Tipper: the first icon from the left
[16:09]  * vidd installs via command line =]
[16:10] <Tipper> reload? or mark all upgrades?
[16:10] <TheSheep> Tipper: sorry, third
[16:10] <suRs> so
[16:10] <TheSheep> Tipper: they should be all labeled in your native language, btw
[16:10] <Tipper> I can't click it
[16:10] <suRs> anyone know were local weather is?
[16:11] <Tipper> is it because I am downloading pacages from add/remove applications?
[16:11] <TheSheep> suRs: google should find you quite a lot of various weather sites with maps and all
[16:11] <Tipper> packages*
[16:11] <TheSheep> Tipper: right-click o 'wine' and select 'mark for installation' first

[16:13] <TheSheep> yes
[16:13] <Tipper> where will the app be located?
[16:14] <TheSheep> Tipper: it consists of many files located in various directories
[16:14] <Tipper> how do I run it?
[16:14] <TheSheep> Tipper: you can right click it in synaptic, select properties and see the list of all those files
[16:15] <TheSheep> Tipper: you start some .exe file
[16:15] <vidd> Tipper, once wine is installed, you just double-click on the .exe and it should launch
[16:16] <Tipper> It says it isn't installed uner properties
[16:16] <Tipper> under*

[16:18] <Tipper> Got installation
[16:21] <Tipper> TheSheep, vidd: got it thanks
[16:21] <Tipper> how do I install themes/
[16:21] <loading> hello
[16:21] <vidd> Tipper, i cant help with themes
[16:21] <vidd> never use them
[16:21] <Tipper> TheSheep: can you help?
[16:22] <loading> i'm search a dvd iso of xubuntu
[16:25] <thinkmassiv1> my wireless network icon has disappeared and it's not available in "Add Items to the Panel" so I'd like to know if anyone has a suggestion for getting it back
[16:26] <thinkmassiv1> I can still configure the connection using iwconfig and dhclient, but it would be nice to have a gui
[16:26] <thinkmassiv1> the real mystery is why it disappears in the first place
[16:28] <thinkmassiv1> I've tried rebooting and restarting X... sometimes the icon will appear and then, as soon as I select an access point, the icon "locks up" and disappears a few seconds later
[16:28] <Tipper> Wireless isn't in add items to panel
[16:28] <Tipper> go to settings manager
[16:29] <Tipper> then go to autostart applications
[16:29] <Tipper> then make sure network manager is checked
[16:31] <Tipper> and if the option isn't there click add
[16:32] <Tipper> then add network manager
[16:32] <thinkmassiv1> it is there and checked
[16:32] <Tipper> thinkmassiv1^^
[16:32] <thinkmassiv1> thanks Tipper
[16:32] <Tipper> your welcome :D
[16:32] <thinkmassiv1> that doesn't fix it though
[16:33] <Tipper> oh :P
[16:33] <Tipper> I tried
[16:33] <thinkmassiv1> so I guess the network manager app is dying
[16:33] <Tipper> I installed xubuntu yesterday so I can't be much of a help.
[16:33] <thinkmassiv1> your info helps--I didn't know where to find the app
[16:33] <Tipper> thinkmassiv1: was it unchecked?
[16:34] <thinkmassiv1> nope, the weird thing is that it starts with X but then it dies when I try to connect to a wireless network
[16:35] <thinkmassiv1> hmm even when I start network-manager the icon doesn't re-appear
[16:36] <Tipper> thinkmassiv1: if it was then restart and it should be there.
[16:37] <thinkmassiv1> I suppose I can try that again but it didn't work the last few times
[16:37] <loading> hello i'm search a dvd iso of xubuntu
[16:38] <thinkmassiv1> another peculiarity is that firefox is in offline mode until I deselect that option, which it usually does automatically when I connect to a network
[16:40] <Myrtti> hopping in in the middle of the convo
[16:40] <thinkmassiv1> oh nm-applet makes it appear
[16:40] <thinkmassiv1> hi Myrtti
[16:40] <Myrtti> thinkmassiv1: if you'd try more applications, they'd make the same, since they detect the online/offline from dbus or hal or what not
[16:41] <Myrtti> I've noticed the same when using gprs connection (basically dialup) since that doesn't show up in avahi
[16:41] <Myrtti> oh, yeah, and it's avahi that doesn't detect gprs
[16:41] <Myrtti> not dbus, hal
[16:42] <thinkmassiv1> ok, well that explains that issue
[16:42] <Myrtti> the same happens with pidgin, claws-mail, epiphany...
[16:42] <thinkmassiv1> now the applet is showing the "waiting for network key" icon
[16:42] <thinkmassiv1> but obviously I'm still connected
[16:42] <thinkmassiv1> ...unless you're all a figment of my computer's elaborate imagination
[16:43] <Myrtti> when I login, I have to tick the networking off for a while, and put it back on
[16:43] <thinkmassiv1> why is that?
[16:43] <peterajamesh> looking for help mounting a slave drive in xunbuntu, any one can help me with this
[16:43] <Myrtti> otherwise I'm doomed to go in (or actually, nm-applet) circles in waiting for a network key
[16:43] <Myrtti> on the second try it connects
[16:43] <Myrtti> peterajamesh: what kind of troubles are you having then?
[16:44] <Tipper> Myrtti: you know how to add themeas?
[16:44] <thinkmassiv1> ok, I'm going to try reinstalling the applet
[16:44] <Tipper> themes*
[16:44] <thinkmassiv1> thanks Myrtti
[16:45] <thinkmassiv1> btw, how do you disable the network connection using the applet?
[16:45] <peterajamesh> I can't get my 250 GB slave to mount, I tried sudo mount -t /dev/sdb1 /media/second
[16:45] <thinkmassiv1> nevermind I found it
[16:45] <peterajamesh> ﻿/dev/sdb1 is my slave, is where i wana mount it
[16:45] <Myrtti> Tipper: what kind of themes?
[16:46] <Tipper> xfce
[16:46] <Myrtti> I untar the packages to /usr/share/themes/, but ~/.themes/ is equally good place
[16:47] <Tipper> Myrtti:  /usr/share/themes/ is protected
[16:47] <Tipper> I can't add it there
[16:47] <Myrtti> Tipper: sudo magic
[16:47] <Tipper> what do I type?
[16:47] <Myrtti> untar to home dir, move to /usr/share/themes with sudo
[16:48] <Tipper> so just sudo usr/share/themes?
[16:49] <Myrtti> nope
[16:49] <Tipper> sudo cp /pathtodownloadedtheme/yourtheme.tar.gz /usr/share/themes
[16:49] <Myrtti> that first
[16:49] <Myrtti> then untar with sudo tar xvzf
[16:51] <Tipper> Myrtti: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16201/
[16:51] <Tipper> is that right?
[16:51] <Tipper> I've already unzipped
[16:53] <Myrtti> Tipper: let me walk thru it, which theme are you installing?
[16:54] <Tipper> test
[16:55] <Tipper> http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntu+8.04%2BHardy+Heron+GTK?content=80141
[16:56] <Tipper> I renamed it test though because I can't extract it when it thinks it is a .04 file
[16:56] <Tipper> Myrtti^^
[16:57] <Myrtti> ok, so here we go
[16:57] <Myrtti> I've downloaded it to desktop
[16:57] <Tipper> ok

[17:01] <Tipper> wait so hat did you rename it?
[17:01] <Tipper> what*
[17:01] <Myrtti> I didn't
[17:02] <Tipper> it was just the orginal file?
[17:02] <Myrtti> jup
[17:02] <Tipper> btw I was installing the middle one
[17:02] <Tipper> emerald
[17:02] <Myrtti> I don't have emerald so I don't install it :-)
[17:03] <Tipper> Emerald?
[17:03] <Myrtti> you have to actively install emerald to have it
[17:03] <Myrtti> in xubuntu and in ubuntu too iirc
[17:04] <Tipper> oh I downloaded the wrong versoin :p
[17:11] <Tipper> Myrtti: the download won't start in firefox
[17:11] <Myrtti> :-o

[17:18] <Myrtti> yeah
[17:22] <Tipper> Myrtti: Whats the last command?
[17:22] <Tipper> paste it here, pastebin messes it up

[19:00] <TheSheep> Tipper: what about it?
[19:00] <Tipper> How do I adjust it
[19:00] <TheSheep> Tipper: there should be controls on your monitor screen
[19:00] <Tipper> I'm using a laptop
[19:00] <Tipper> and when I do it, it doesn't work
[19:00] <TheSheep> Tipper: then it should have keys for that
[19:01] <TheSheep> Tipper: usually fn+f8 and fn+f9, or separate keys
[19:01] <TheSheep> Tipper: you can also adjust software gamma correction in display settings
[19:02] <Tipper> ok
[19:05] <thinkmassiv1> is us.archive.ubuntu.com down?
[19:08] <thinkmassiv1> doh nevermind, too many network issues today :\

[21:22] <Myrtti> hi slow-motion
[21:32] <peterajamesh> I got a xubuntu running on a 120 GB HD and I am traing to install a secondary HD, just as slave, I formated the Slave on EXT3 and mounted it with Gpart, but cant get xubuntu to automount the slave drive, usb drives automount just fine, I fount out one has to "sudo mkdir /media/first" and  "sudo mount -t <filesystem>  <partition>  /media/first" I was able to make a /media/second directory but when I type  "s﻿udo mount -t <slavepa
[21:33] <peterajamesh> basically I want my slave drive to auto mount at boot...
[21:36] <Myrtti> you were cut off at "s﻿udo mount -t <slavepa
[21:36] <Myrtti> anyway, the answer to your question is fstab.
[21:38] <peterajamesh> ok thanks looking into ﻿fstab
[22:42] <vehystrix> can anyone help me upgrading to 8.04, it keeps telling me I have unofficial packages...
[22:43] <TheSheep> vehystrix: just uninstall them and install later back
[22:43] <vehystrix> how do I know what to uninstall?
[22:44] <TheSheep> vehystrix: if you display by status in the left pane in synaptic, you have 'external or obsolete' category, or something like that
[22:47] <vehystrix> I don't see no such tab
[22:49] <TheSheep> when you click on 'status' at the lower left corner, you see 'All', 'Installed', 'Uninstalled', etc., there is no 'Installed (local or obsolete)'?
[22:49] <vehystrix> All, Installed, Installed (auto removable) and Not Installed
[22:49] <TheSheep> :/
[22:50] <TheSheep> what if you disable the unofficial repositories and update?
[22:51] <vehystrix> disable anything but the main(first one on the first tab) ?
[22:52] <TheSheep> no, just disable any non-ubuntu ones
[22:54] <vehystrix> I disabeled the third-party server, and the community-maintained
[22:55] <vehystrix> anything else?
[22:57] <handjob> tl;dr how do i change screen resolution in fail safe terminal for my xface session?
[22:59] <handjob> hello anybody here>>>?
[23:00] <Odd-rationale> no
[23:05] <slow-motion> n8
[23:07] <Odd-rationale> handjob: screen resolution can be chaned by editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[23:09] <handjob> yes i herad about it but i am kind a newb and i dont knew what line do i need 2 hange
[23:10] <Odd-rationale> handjob: pastebin your xorg.conf file and i'll take a look...
[23:12] <handjob> well it's kind problematic for me running failsafe terminal
[23:13] <handjob> ; -|
[23:13] <handjob> i feel so noob
[23:13] <Odd-rationale> handjob: is that computer connected to the net?
[23:13] <handjob> yes!
[23:13] <Odd-rationale> handjob: well install pastebinit "sudo apt-get install pastebinit"
[23:14] <Odd-rationale> handjob: then "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit"
[23:14] <handjob> yes....
[23:14] <Odd-rationale> then give me the link it gives you...
[23:14] <handjob> kk thx brb
[23:14] <vehystrix_> apparently by uninstalling all unofficial packages I removed the driver for my network card...
[23:15] <Odd-rationale> vehystrix_: well, you will have to wire up and reinstall it...
[23:15] <vehystrix_> I did...
[23:15] <vehystrix_> but that means my hardy update will complain about unofficial packages again...
[23:15] <Odd-rationale> vehystrix_: so are you ok now?
[23:15] <Odd-rationale> vehystrix_: cant you tell the updater to update anyways?
[23:16] <vehystrix_> not that I know of
[23:17] <Odd-rationale> vehystrix_: what options did it give you?
[23:17] <vehystrix_> to file a bug report...
[23:17] <vehystrix_> and that's about it...
[23:18]  * Odd-rationale seldom does upgrades. likes reinstalls...
[23:18] <Odd-rationale> i don't even remember what were the update options...
[23:18] <handjob> paste.stgraber.org/5107
[23:18] <Odd-rationale> but i think there has a way to press next...
[23:19] <vehystrix_> I don't want to lose everything, especially since I finally got it to work right...
[23:19] <vehystrix_> I'm trying again now
[23:19] <Odd-rationale> handjob: what resolution do you have now?
[23:20] <handjob> not quite sure its something like 1680 x 250
[23:20] <handjob> *1250
[23:21] <Odd-rationale> handjob: what resolution do you want?
[23:22] <handjob> anything that won't give me 'signal not supported' message l )
[23:23] <Odd-rationale> handjob: so all you can see in that machine is a terminal>
[23:23] <Odd-rationale> ?
[23:23] <vehystrix_> New error report here...
[23:23] <vehystrix_> Can't install 'xubuntu-desktop'
[23:23] <vehystrix_> It was impossible to install a required package. Please report this as a bug.
[23:24] <vehystrix_> Could not calculate the upgrade
[23:24] <vehystrix_> A unresolvable problem occurred while calculating the upgrade.
[23:24] <vehystrix_>  This can be caused by:
[23:24] <vehystrix_>  * Upgrading to a pre-release version of Ubuntu
[23:24] <vehystrix_>  * Running the current pre-release version of Ubuntu
[23:24] <vehystrix_>  * Unofficial software packages not provided by Ubuntu
[23:24] <vehystrix_> If none of this applies, then please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport.
[23:24] <Odd-rationale> vehystrix_: i would just backup and reinstall....
[23:24] <handjob> in normal session i don't see anything since setting unsupported resolution,now i am wrighting from failsafe terminal
[23:25] <Odd-rationale> handjob: are you familiar with editing text file in a terminal? nano? vi?
