| anom01y | omg | 05:08 |
| anom01y | the installer cd's for xubuntu and kubuntu suck | 05:08 |
| anom01y | neither of them work | 05:08 |
| anom01y | I've tried 3 different versions | 05:08 |
| anom01y | ubuntu 7.04 | 05:09 |
| anom01y | xubuntu 8.04 | 05:09 |
| anom01y | kubuntu 8.04 | 05:09 |
| anom01y | all of them fail me when I try to install | 05:09 |
| anom01y | ubuntu fails on kernal installation | 05:09 |
| anom01y | xubuntu fails me because the laptop its going on only has 64mb ram | 05:09 |
| anom01y | kubuntu (going on a more powerful computer) fails as when I reboot after installation the computer sits there with a message "mbr fa:" | 05:10 |
| anom01y | whatever the heck that is | 05:10 |
| nvc | set the scene here, what're the specs of the machines you're installing to? | 05:12 |
| nvc | i.e. what RAM & CPU's are in them | 05:12 |
| anom01y | well the laptop is an old p2 with 64mb ram | 05:12 |
| anom01y | had win98 on it | 05:12 |
| anom01y | and the new computer is a core 2 duo 2gb ram | 05:12 |
| anom01y | Im truing to install kubuntu on the new computer and xubuntu on the slower computer | 05:13 |
| anom01y | someone told me to get old ubuntu 7.04 and then upgrade to the hardy heron after | 05:13 |

| u007 | hi, i forgotten what i did with the panel configuration, my panel is all gone.. :( | 09:31 |
| u007 | even restart doesn't work :( | 09:32 |
| xbj9000 | hi | 09:38 |
| MementoMori | hi | 09:39 |
| xbj9000 | anyone know why totem /tmp/Flash* works from terminal, but not from a taskbar shortcut? (says no such file) | 09:39 |
| MementoMori | is there any applet to connect/disconnect pppoe link? | 09:40 |
| xbj9000 | sorry I don't know | 09:40 |
| MementoMori | xbj9000: maybe the * isnt correctly expanded by the taskbar | 09:41 |
| MementoMori | xbj9000: I dont have xubuntu right now so I cant test | 09:41 |
| xbj9000 | expanded? | 09:44 |
| u007 | hi, may i know what is the command for running the panel in xfce? | 09:46 |
| xbj9000 | I think it's xfce4-panel | 09:47 |
| u007 | hi xbj9000 thank you :) | 09:48 |
| u007 | it works :) | 09:48 |
| MementoMori | xbj9000: when you run totem /tmp/Flash* in a shell the shell will expand the Flash* in order to get all the files you want | 09:55 |
| xbj9000 | well I also tried the 'run in terminal' option on the shortcut | 09:56 |
| MementoMori | so if you have /tmp/Flash01 /tmp/Flash02 the command totem /tmp/Flash* will be "converted" in "totem /tmp/Flash01 /tmp/Flash02" | 09:57 |
| xbj9000 | right | 09:57 |
| MementoMori | xbj9000: man glob if you want to learn more | 09:58 |
| jarnos | I can not quit firefox 3 after update even if I am asked to. | 10:02 |
| xbj9000 | MementoMori, could xfce panel be converting the * into something like a %20 ? | 10:03 |
| jarnos | I tried File > Quit and it disappeared from task list after about a minute. System monitor tells it is sleeping. | 10:04 |
| xbj9000 | nevermind I guess not, with vlc it actually gives a message "Unable to open '/tmp/Flash*'" | 10:05 |
| jarnos | I guess I'll have to end the process. | 10:05 |
| xbj9000 | not sure jarnos | 10:05 |
| jarnos | Well, I already did. | 10:06 |
| jarnos | xbj9000 | 10:06 |
| ath_gr | hi all. i have already installed xubuntu 6.06 in an older celeron@600 with 64 mb ram. the system is running pretty good. now i want to install some games. which is the procedure i have to do? i know links like http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/games/ or http://www.getdeb.net/. what do i have to do to install these games on my system? | 10:10 |
| AlexCONRAD | Hi, during a unattended install (pressed) is it a bad idea to chroot /taget/, patch, make, make modules, make install, mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd... ? I have compiled a network driver during auto-install process, and it crashes on reboot. I have made the same manipultations *after* an installation and the driver works fine. Any pointers ? | 10:10 |
| homebrewcider | aanybody else have problems printing in Xubuntu? I have a canon mp510 that prints all wrong. The stuff on the page is spread out left to right, and goes off te page, and the colours don't line up | 10:38 |
| ath_gr | any help plz? | 10:39 |
| Myrtti | homebrewcider: have you asked in #ubuntu? | 10:40 |
| homebrewcider | no | 10:40 |
| Myrtti | homebrewcider: printing system in xubuntu and ubuntu are common, so that problem would be the same even in ubuntu | 10:40 |
| homebrewcider | asking there too | 10:41 |
| Myrtti | ath_gr: there's lots of games available in add/remove... | 10:41 |
| Myrtti | add/remove == packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/games | 10:41 |
| MementoMori | is it possible to install xubuntu on a old pentium3 with 64MB of RAM? | 10:54 |
| ablomen | MementoMori, yep its possible | 10:55 |
| ablomen | you might wanna add some ram though | 10:55 |
| ablomen | but anywho, if you use the alternate installation cd it should be no problem | 10:55 |
| MementoMori | ablomen: can I use the graphical installation cd? | 10:55 |
| ablomen | no that needs at leas 196mb of ram (or something like that) | 10:55 |
| ablomen | but the alternate install cd is just as easy, and faster | 10:56 |
| MementoMori | I need the graphical one because I have to know first if my friend like it | 10:57 |
| ablomen | then you need to add at least 128mb of ram extra | 10:57 |
| ablomen | or go for something like puppy linux | 10:57 |
| MementoMori | does puppy use deb? | 10:58 |
| ablomen | nope | 10:58 |
| MementoMori | what does it use? | 10:59 |
| ablomen | they have theyr own package manager | 10:59 |
| MementoMori | so another different from deb and rpm.... wow :( | 11:01 |
| u007 | hi, is it possible to set keyboard shortcut command in xfce? | 11:01 |
| MementoMori | anyway i'm reading it's faq. I think it's ot puppy here ;) | 11:01 |
| ablomen | u007, settings->settings manager->keyboard->shortcuts | 11:01 |
| u007 | ablomen, thank you :D | 11:02 |
| ablomen | it is a pretty good system.. for old computers and basic computing | 11:02 |
| ablomen | u007, np :) | 11:02 |
| u007 | ablomen, yeah, i just switched from the fancy ubuntu | 11:03 |
| ablomen | *second to last line was about puppy btw, just to be clear ;) | 11:03 |
| ablomen | u007, how your liking it? | 11:04 |
| u007 | its great! :D so much faster | 11:04 |
| u007 | although no more fancy compiz cube :) | 11:04 |
| u007 | everything just fast :) | 11:05 |
| ablomen | you can use compiz with xfce :) | 11:05 |
| u007 | really? | 11:05 |
| ablomen | yep no problem | 11:05 |
| u007 | okay.. so far, i wasn't able to do so.. | 11:05 |
| ablomen | though xfce has real transparancy build in already, at least for me thats enough eyecandy :) | 11:06 |
| u007 | aa.. okay :D | 11:06 |
| ablomen | (in settings manager, look for window manager tweaks -> compositor) | 11:06 |
| u007 | okay :D thank you :) | 11:07 |
| ablomen | :) | 11:07 |
| u007 | ablomen: i can't find the tweak :) | 11:09 |
| ablomen | no? its the second to last icon in the xfce settings manager | 11:10 |
| ablomen | and then the last tab | 11:10 |
| u007 | okay :D | 11:10 |
| u007 | ohhh. i saw it | 11:10 |
| u007 | thanks :) | 11:10 |
| ablomen | hehe np :) | 11:11 |
| u007 | ablomen, do you know how to get ride of orage and use evolution calendar instead? | 11:13 |
| u007 | rid i meant | 11:13 |
| ablomen | ehm you can stop orange from autostarting in the autostarted applications window (also in xfce settings manager) | 11:14 |
| ablomen | oh wait no you cant | 11:14 |
| ablomen | in the orange preferences (in settings manager) in the second tab you can let it start hidden | 11:15 |
| u007 | okay | 11:15 |
| u007 | thank you :) | 11:15 |
| ablomen | how to use the evolution calender i dunno | 11:15 |
| u007 | its okay, i will try :) | 11:15 |
| u007 | i changed my session from ubuntu, and installed xubuntu-desktop :) | 11:16 |
| Myrtti | install the xfce4-xfapplet-plugin | 11:18 |
| Myrtti | then you can use gnome applets, like the gnome clock applet with the calendar | 11:18 |
| u007 | ohh.. cool :) | 11:19 |
| u007 | Myrtti, thanks :) | 11:19 |
| u007 | haha.. i got my Wanda back :D | 11:21 |
| AlexCONRAD | Hi, during a unattended install (pressed auto-install) I have compiled a network driver. Is it a bad idea to chroot /taget/, patch, make, make modules, make install, mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd... ? The driver crashes on reboot. I have made the same manipultations *after* an installation and the driver works fine. Any pointers ? | 11:22 |
| u007 | and Eyes :d | 11:24 |
| ablomen | AlexCONRAD, heh it doesnt get any easyer for ya huh | 11:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | ablomen: nop ... | 11:25 |
| AlexCONRAD | I'm stuck with that driver I compiled | 11:25 |
| ablomen | im sertainly no expert, but cant you compile it as a module so you can just create a deb package? (like the nvidia driver for example) | 11:26 |
| AlexCONRAD | I'd like to know if it makes any difference of compiling a driver during the intall process or after the install is done and the installed system is booted | 11:26 |
| u007 | xfce seems to remember well the window sizes and position :D its better than the ubuntu version... | 11:39 |
| MrNaz | is there any reason not to use xubuntu as a server OS ? | 12:06 |
| ablomen | MrNaz, yes, a server doesnt need a gui :) | 12:25 |
| MrNaz | ablomen aside from that heh | 12:34 |
| ablomen | ubuntu server has a specialised kernel | 12:34 |
| MrNaz | but yea you're right... i should be using debian for servers | 12:34 |
| MrNaz | ablomen it does? | 12:34 |
| ablomen | yeah | 12:34 |
| MrNaz | what's so special about it? | 12:34 |
| ablomen | dunno what the big difference is | 12:34 |
| ablomen | but it does have one :P | 12:34 |
| MrNaz | haha | 12:34 |
| ablomen | http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition :) | 12:34 |
| ablomen | oh and http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/features/kernel << the diferences between desktop kernel and server kernel | 12:35 |
| ablomen | anyway, the server edition always was stable for me, no real difference from using debian (i use both) | 12:37 |
| ablomen | the software is just a bit more updated | 12:37 |
| ablomen | oh and the server editions are released once every 1,5 years if im correct, and the debian editions are released once every... century? | 12:38 |
| ablomen | *debian releases | 12:40 |

| kripz | is there a lamp package that requires no installation and can runs off usb? | 13:22 |
| ablomen | kripz, for xubuntu? not readely available | 13:31 |
| kripz | ablomen, what do you mean readily available | 13:32 |
| ablomen | well you can compile webservers etc to have all files in a directory that you could put on a usb stick | 13:32 |

| Myrtti | ummm | 13:39 |
| Myrtti | yes | 13:39 |
| Myrtti | sorry | 13:39 |
| Myrtti | got distracted | 13:39 |
| persi | can anyone recommend me a music player for xubuntu or is it offtopic here? | 13:40 |
| ablomen | rhythmbox is good | 13:40 |
| Myrtti | exaile, audacious, mpd | 13:41 |
| ablomen | and the 1200 others that are good too | 13:41 |
| ablomen | it depends on your system and what kind of music player you want | 13:41 |
| Myrtti | yup | 13:42 |
| ablomen | winamp like, itunes like, just enough features, more features youll ever need | 13:42 |
| persi | =) yeah seems so, just want somewhere to start, I`m on pentIII 1ghz laptop with I think 256mb of ram | 13:42 |
| persi | winamp like would be fine | 13:42 |
| persi | with just enough features | 13:42 |
| persi | not even library | 13:42 |
| Myrtti | audacious then | 13:43 |
| ablomen | well xmms is old but a lot of people use it, i think audacious is the predecesor of that | 13:43 |
| ablomen | *sucsessor | 13:43 |
| persi | xmms isnt available to me for some reason, so i installed xmms2 and tried some clients for it, but they wouldnt work fine | 13:43 |
| Myrtti | audacious is cool | 13:44 |
| persi | thank you for your advice, since your so patient, how about terminal replacement with minimum features? anything cooler than mrxvt? | 13:44 |
| persi | I`m currently being converted from winXP so I`m kind of newbie here | 13:45 |
| ablomen | terminator is quite nice (you can have multiple terminals in one screen with that) | 13:46 |
| Myrtti | xubuntu comes with xfce4-terminal by default | 13:46 |
| Myrtti | it's ok and has the basic features | 13:46 |
| Myrtti | I use the bleeding-edge version of terminator, though. | 13:46 |
| persi | I have a problem with the default one, its symbols are distorted, it started when I fixed the usual resolution problem | 13:48 |
| persi | so we come to the next question, fonts look blurry to me, is it usual for xubuntu? because they look sharp on login screen | 13:49 |
| persi | I have a dell c600 laptop with 1400x1050, might there be a problem with that? | 13:50 |
| ablomen | persi, settings manager -> userinterface | 13:50 |
| ablomen | and then look at font-rendereing | 13:50 |
| persi | wow subpixel rendering looks very neat! thanks a lot! | 13:52 |
| ablomen | np :) | 13:53 |
| persi | jeez spent two days trying to beat advice of some local linuxoid friend and you are so helpful, how great it is | 13:53 |
| ablomen | Myrtti, has the current version a lot more functionallity then the one in the repo's? | 13:54 |
| ablomen | persi, yeah we people rock :P (j/k) | 13:54 |
| Myrtti | I don't even remember using the one in the repos :-P | 13:55 |
| ablomen | lol ok :P | 13:55 |
| ablomen | hmm might try it then | 13:55 |
| AlexCONRAD | after an automatic (preseed) install, going in Applications > System > Network shows that my eth0 is not enabled by default. How can I change this? Really my question is: when i'll check the "enable this conection" checkbox, which setting/config file is it modifing on disk so I can reproduce this setup on my automated installation disk (customized alternate CD) | 14:20 |
| johanjof | hello | 14:22 |
| johanjof | I just wondered how do you guys search into a ps file because gv doesnt do that | 14:22 |
| johanjof | any idea please ? | 14:22 |
| johanjof | note that you can say yes or no :) | 14:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | no | 14:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | :) | 14:24 |
| johanjof | you use gv then ? | 14:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | no :) | 14:24 |
| johanjof | evince ??!! | 14:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | no | 14:24 |
| AlexCONRAD | Until now, I didn't have to search in a ps file. :) | 14:25 |
| AlexCONRAD | and what's a ps file ? | 14:25 |
| AlexCONRAD | postscript? | 14:25 |
| johanjof | lol | 14:25 |
| johanjof | yes | 14:25 |
| AlexCONRAD | printing related ? | 14:25 |

| AlexCONRAD | heh | 14:27 |
| johanjof | yes its you we saw you ! :D | 14:27 |
| * AlexCONRAD hides | 14:28 | |
| ablomen | AlexCONRAD, /etc/network/interfaces? | 14:32 |
| AlexCONRAD | ablomen: aaah, a hint! | 14:32 |
| AlexCONRAD | ablomen: i'm asking the same questions on #ubuntu, but there are so many conversations going on, your question just get's flooded | 14:33 |
| ablomen | hehe yeah #ubuntu is impossible | 14:33 |
| ablomen | auto eth0 <enter> iface eth0 inet dhcp << is what i have | 14:33 |
| AlexCONRAD | your my saver, there a man page man 5 interfaces | 14:33 |
| AlexCONRAD | thanks ablomen, it pretty different from redhat's mechanisms | 14:34 |
| AlexCONRAD | which i'm used to | 14:34 |
| ablomen | AlexCONRAD, get LPI in a nutshell from oreilly, they have all that stuff in there for both redhat and debian :) | 14:35 |
| ablomen | really great book | 14:35 |
| ablomen | not that i mind you asking btw :P | 14:35 |
| AlexCONRAD | i'll buy the book ablomen | 14:42 |
| AlexCONRAD | thanks for the recommandation | 14:42 |
| ablomen | np :) | 14:42 |
| persi | ok people, rock on, here are another 2: how to see the list of (recently) installed programs that didnt appear in Applications menu | 14:58 |
| ablomen | persi, aptitude gives you a full list | 14:59 |
| persi | and how to type in alternative languages | 14:59 |
| ablomen | second one im not sure, i know there is a keyboard layout switcher applet (right click on panel -> add new item ->keyboard layout switcher) | 15:00 |
| ablomen | dunno if thats all you have to do | 15:01 |
| persi | круто | 15:04 |
| persi | ЖВ | 15:04 |
| persi | :D | 15:04 |
| persi | well that was the proof, thank you :) | 15:04 |
| persi | actually had to play with keyboard properties, where to set up hotkeys for layout switcher btw? is it themes in keyboard properties? | 15:05 |
| persi | and how to get WIN buttun to function? | 15:06 |
| persi | and is there a way to remove redundant dependencies along with package? | 15:08 |
| persi | and how to get mouse wheel to scroll faster? as a side note, where to get drivers, for example, for my microsoft (sorry) intellipoint? | 15:11 |
| testride | hi there | 15:13 |
| testride | can i run xubuntu with copy to ram ? and how much ramwould i need ( if its possible ) | 15:14 |
| testride | !copy to ram | 15:14 |
| ubottu | Factoid copy to ram not found | 15:15 |
| testride | hmm | 15:15 |
| testride | i guess not\ | 15:22 |
| xTOGx | anybody home? | 15:23 |
| ablomen | <persi> and is there a way to remove redundant dependencies along with package? << sudo apt-get auto-remove | 15:34 |
| persi | what`s the difference between apt-get and aptitude? | 15:35 |
| ablomen | well people say aptitude is more reliable, dunno if thats true, i always use apt-get out of habbit | 15:35 |
| persi | E: Invalid operation auto-remove | 15:36 |
| ablomen | oh and aptitude has a srry without the dash | 15:36 |
| ablomen | ok again | 15:36 |
| ablomen | *sorry without the dash | 15:36 |
| ablomen | *aptitude also has a ncurses front-end | 15:36 |
| ablomen | which apt doesnt have | 15:37 |
| persi | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded | 15:37 |
| persi | so what it does? | 15:37 |
| ablomen | ok then there are no dependancies that arnt used | 15:38 |
| persi | I had in mind to remove konsole with all the garbage it brought with itself | 15:38 |
| persi | so I should 1st remove konsole itself | 15:38 |
| persi | then run it again? | 15:38 |
| ablomen | yeah you can try that | 15:38 |
| ablomen | dunno what the (reverse) dependencies of the kde-libs are | 15:38 |
| persi | hope Kopete doesnt use them | 15:39 |
| ablomen | yeah it does use kde libs | 15:39 |
| ablomen | kde apps == kde libs | 15:39 |
| persi | -_- | 15:41 |
| ablomen | thats one more reason why i avoid everything with a K at the beginning | 15:41 |
| persi | well autoremove doesnt smell em | 15:41 |
| persi | so there are no exceptions regarding k? | 15:41 |
| persi | im fine with pidgin but it doesnt hold the connection for some reason, and kopete does | 15:42 |
| === maxamillion is now known as notMax | ||
| ablomen | lol yeah there are some apps starting with K that arnt kde/qt apps ;) | 15:42 |
| Riotta | sudo apt-get autoremove | 15:42 |
| Riotta | not auo-remove | 15:43 |

| persi | hmm some guy writes that xfce is slow, what do you think is a spec past which it is better to use gnome/KDE? | 16:04 |
| persi | I`m on 1ghz, 256mb RAM btw | 16:04 |
| Riotta | xfce will be way faster than gnome or kde | 16:10 |
| Riotta | if you want something more faster and less usable you should concern Fluxbox, blackbox, openbox | 16:10 |
| Riotta | persi: xfce has really small memory footprint and cpu usage even has apps like music player which is designed to be low profile | 16:11 |
| Riotta | xfmedia it's called | 16:11 |
| persi | thanks, less usable would be too much :) | 16:14 |
| persi | xfmedia isnt installed yet | 16:14 |
| persi | gettin it | 16:14 |
| persi | wow looks cool | 16:15 |
| persi | just losing track of all those packages | 16:15 |
| AlexCONRAD | how would you recommend setting up an .sh script that requires root privilege and should be launched during PC start up? | 16:30 |
| AlexCONRAD | /etc/rc.local? | 16:30 |
| Riotta | AlexCONRAD: yes | 16:36 |
| Riotta | rc.local would be good | 16:37 |
| AlexCONRAD | Riotta: thanks. If I remember well, this is only executed on each boot. If a user logs out and logs in again, it won't be execute, right ? | 16:38 |
| Riotta | yes | 16:38 |
| AlexCONRAD | great | 16:38 |
| Riotta | make sure that both this script and rc.local has executable flag (chmod +x file) | 16:38 |
| AlexCONRAD | Riotta: is has | 16:39 |
| AlexCONRAD | both do | 16:39 |

| persi | ok now, wanna bother with mouse, I fixed the speed of scrolling problem for firefox, but would like a more general solution, are there any? | 17:25 |
| persi | I mean, for flexible set up of extra buttons and wheel | 17:25 |
| persi | hopefully witout editing of confs | 17:26 |
| Riotta | persi: logitech ? | 17:42 |

| Riotta | unfortunetly not gui configuration cause you can't configure it by gui but it's a howto | 17:45 |
| persi | ah thanks, shame on me | 17:45 |
| Riotta | linux isn't like click and run sometimes it's alot easier to edit some config than click it | 17:46 |
| persi | yeah, I was used to it in dos times - before like 96th, but now it is hard to catch up | 17:46 |
| persi | btw noob question, what does the ring that is at the header of each window does | 17:47 |
| persi | button | 17:47 |
| persi | one at the left | 17:47 |
| persi | theres picture in the corner and that button with circle to the right from it | 17:48 |
| Riotta | in xfce ? | 17:49 |
| Riotta | I think it pins windows on all virtual desktops | 17:49 |
| Riotta | I'm not using this cause my window border theme haven't got it atall | 17:50 |

| assassain101 | I need some help with my alt disk. | 19:31 |
| assassain101 | Apparently, the live CD for Xubuntu won't run on my machine, (I can only get the desktop to boot if I use safe graphics mode and it is SLOOOOOOW) | 19:32 |
| assassain101 | So, I downloaded the iso for the alt install, and after burning it, it wasn't even detected by my machine. So I guess what I'm asking is...can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong with burning it? | 19:33 |
| assassain101 | I don't have admin rights on this machine so my usual ISO burner can't be installed, and I accidently removed windows on the computer I want to install it on. | 19:34 |
| assassain101 | So, I found this one data disc burner already installed on here. It has some crazy options though I've never seen before... | 19:34 |
| y4ndexx | InfraRecorder doesn't need installation, IIRC. | 19:38 |
| assassain101 | It would appear so. | 19:41 |
| assassain101 | Thank you. | 19:41 |
| assassain101 | It says "No recorders available". | 19:58 |
| assassain101 | After I selected the iso to burn. | 19:58 |

| keri | hi | 20:48 |
| Odd-rationale | !hi | keri | 20:48 |
| ubottu | keri: Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! | 20:48 |
| keri | i got a kodak easy share camera and i pluged it in but nothing showed up, not even a drive... any help is appreciated. | 20:48 |
| Odd-rationale | hmm. try unplugging it. plugging it back. then pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l" | 20:51 |
| Odd-rationale | keri: ^ | 20:53 |
| keri | i know | 20:53 |
| keri | im working on it.. bout to paste now | 20:53 |
| Odd-rationale | ok. sorry. | 20:53 |
| keri | http://paste.ubuntu.com/19125/ | 20:55 |
| keri | hey, should i have the camera on when i unplugged it then plugged it back in? | 20:56 |
| Odd-rationale | i think you should turn it off, unplug, plug, turn on | 20:56 |
| keri | no change anyway... would a hub make it not be detected.. 1 usb to 4? | 20:57 |
| keri | im using a hub | 20:57 |
| Odd-rationale | keri: well, it would be best if you plugged dirrectly | 20:58 |
| Odd-rationale | just to take further complications out of the equation... | 20:58 |
| Odd-rationale | keri: so your camer simply has a vfat filesystem? | 20:59 |
| keri | not sure | 20:59 |
| keri | ya no change from being off of the hub or not.. the camera says its connected to the media | 21:00 |
| Odd-rationale | keri: is it an older camera? most newer ones supprt usb mass storage... | 21:00 |
| keri | so i dont know why its not picking it up... where do i go to check on connected usb devices? xubuntu is stripped out so i usually use hardware manager | 21:00 |
| keri | 2years old | 21:01 |
| Volkodav | sudo lsusb | 21:01 |
| Volkodav | does it show there? | 21:01 |
| Odd-rationale | older camera uses the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP). you would need something like gthmbs for that... | 21:01 |
| Odd-rationale | gthumb | 21:02 |
| Volkodav | gphoto2 works too | 21:02 |
| keri | yes lsusb shows Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 21:02 |
| Volkodav | It did not recognize it as Kodak? | 21:03 |
| keri | hold on that was off mode.. on mode is going to have to be another pastebin thing brb | 21:03 |
| keri | yes it does | 21:03 |
| keri | it says kodak co. now | 21:03 |
| keri | Bus 001 Device 009: ID 040a:05aa Kodak Co. | 21:03 |
| keri | Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 21:03 |
| Volkodav | what's the model ? | 21:04 |

| Volkodav | http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=8874&release_id=528571 | 21:09 |

| Myrtti | /me shudders | 21:22 |
| Myrtti | gksudo is the graphical frontend to sudo which is used in xubuntu and ubuntu | 21:22 |
| Volkodav | yeah - I want to have my root in console | 21:22 |
| Volkodav | when I need it | 21:22 |
| Myrtti | what's wrong with sudo -i | 21:23 |
| Volkodav | I am old school | 21:23 |
| Volkodav | I do sudo passwd | 21:23 |
| Myrtti | !noroot | 21:23 |
| ubottu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 21:23 |
| Volkodav | and I have my root | 21:23 |
| Volkodav | nah | 21:23 |
| Volkodav | let them play with sudos | 21:24 |
