Lzr | Hey Brokunn, you sounded like me yesterday with that problem! | 00:29 |
---|---|---|
Lzr | Brokunn: Are you using the Xubuntu alternate version? | 00:29 |
Brokunn | Aye | 00:29 |
Brokunn | I couldnt get the standard one to load properly since I dont have enough RAM, so I'm using the alt ;) | 00:29 |
Lzr | Mine kept freezing at the same percentage each time, although I did get farther in the install by disabling ACPI in the install options. I grabbed Xubuntu 6.06 LTS instead and upgraded to 8.04 last night | 00:30 |
Brokunn | Oh, is 6.06 LTS an older version? | 00:30 |
Brokunn | And where are the install options? ;) | 00:30 |
cody-somerville | 8.04 > 6.06 | 00:31 |
Lzr | My laptop has 224MB RAM and I still couldn't get the alternate version to work, which claims to install on machines with 64MB RAM. | 00:31 |
Lzr | Yeah, 6.06 is an older version that lets you upgrade directly to 8.04. You can grab it off the Xubuntu site, then follow the directions on there on how to upgrade | 00:31 |
Brokunn | My install is specifically hanging up at the "Select and Install Software" step... usually at 6% | 00:31 |
Lzr | Same here! | 00:32 |
Lzr | I couldn't find any solutions, but upgrading from 6.06 to 8.04 is better than having nothing installed | 00:33 |
Lzr | Sorry, 6.04 | 00:33 |
Lzr | Haha, 6.06. | 00:33 |
Lzr | All these version numbers are making my head spin | 00:33 |
Brokunn | Heh, well thanks for the tip! I'm going to go get the install right now and give it a try. Is the 6.04 version an alternate, or just the regular install? | 00:34 |
Lzr | You can get either, I grabbed the alternate just in case | 00:35 |
Lzr | http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs-Xubuntu/6.06.1/release.1/ | 00:35 |
Lzr | The US mirrors, for example | 00:35 |
Lzr | And no problem, I spent the past 2 days trying to figure out how to get a non-freezing install. | 00:36 |
Brokunn | Rgr that. Thanks Lzr =) | 00:36 |

JannoTT | How to disable pc speaker. Xubuntu peeps when i start the system(login screen). When i close the system(little before splashscreen). | 14:32 |
vinnl | JannoTT, you mean the beep? | 14:33 |
vinnl | JannoTT, http://www.google.com/search?client=googlet&btnI=Im+Feeling+Lucky&q=disable+system+beep+xubuntu | 14:33 |
JannoTT | beep yes | 14:33 |
vinnl | Then see that google search, I think there are some good solutions there :) | 14:33 |
JannoTT | Blacklisted pc speaker. But this solution feels kinda strange. Why aren't there just a checkbox some where what would make xubuntu not use pc speaker. | 14:37 |
vinnl | I guess it's because the speaker isn't there for nothing...? | 14:38 |
vinnl | ...and because there are many more urgent issues :) | 14:38 |
JannoTT | What is pcm under volume control? :D | 14:39 |
vinnl | Eh? xD | 14:40 |
JannoTT | open volume control | 14:40 |
vinnl | Ehm, where do I find that? :P | 14:40 |
vinnl | Ah, you mean the panel plugin? | 14:41 |
JannoTT | that should work too | 14:41 |
vinnl | Ah, I see, xfce4-mixer | 14:41 |
vinnl | OK, it's open | 14:41 |
JannoTT | wich on controls your sound volume? | 14:42 |

jokoon | hello back Odd-rationale | 15:22 |
jokoon | I tried as you told me yesterday | 15:22 |
jokoon | and On the login prompt in graphical mode | 15:23 |
jokoon | I did ctrl alt F2 | 15:23 |
jokoon | still black screen | 15:23 |
jokoon | and the failsafe mode worked | 15:23 |
vinnl | jokoon, completely black? | 15:23 |
jokoon | yes | 15:23 |
jokoon | no text | 15:23 |
vinnl | Odd... | 15:24 |
jokoon | vinnl | 15:25 |
jokoon | yay basically the problem is that when I start a xfce session | 15:25 |
jokoon | there is the default bright blue background | 15:26 |
jokoon | with a mouse pointer | 15:26 |
jokoon | and nothing else happens, I can move the pointer | 15:26 |
jokoon | I waited long | 15:26 |
jokoon | basically I have a ubuntu installed | 15:26 |
jokoon | on a apple ibook G4 | 15:27 |
vinnl | jokoon, have you tried pressing Alt+F2 then running "xfce4-panel"? | 15:27 |
jokoon | so its a powerpc | 15:27 |
TheSheep | jokoon: can you swithc to console with alt+ctrl+f1, log in and run 'top' to see what processes are running? | 15:27 |
jokoon | no I cant switch to a console | 15:27 |
jokoon | oh | 15:27 |
jokoon | Yes I'll try alt Fé | 15:27 |
jokoon | f2 and xfce panel | 15:28 |
jokoon | but I installed xubuntu-desktop | 15:28 |
jokoon | should it be installed already ? | 15:28 |
vinnl | jokoon, yes, but perhaps it isn't started | 15:28 |
jokoon | shouldn't it start automatically ? | 15:29 |
vinnl | jokoon, it's supposed to, yes :) | 15:29 |
vinnl | jokoon, but you wouldn't be the first where it doesn't happen :) | 15:29 |
jokoon | why so ? | 15:29 |
vinnl | jokoon, I don't know exactly, I believe it was a problem on the livecd for people who didn't have enough memory | 15:30 |
jokoon | ok | 15:30 |
jokoon | the xubuntu livecd ? | 15:30 |
vinnl | jokoon, yeah | 15:30 |
jokoon | xfce is supposed to be lightweight | 15:30 |
jokoon | I have 1gb ram | 15:31 |
TheSheep | 1GB is more than enough | 15:31 |
vinnl | Yeah that isn't the problem, that's way more than enough :) | 15:31 |
jokoon | yes | 15:31 |
jokoon | any way I curse power pc on linux | 15:32 |
jokoon | so slow sometimes | 15:32 |
jokoon | when I open a dir it charges so much cpu | 15:32 |
jokoon | well thanks I'll try that | 15:32 |
JannoTT | Dang. i like xubuntu. So simple and fast. | 15:39 |

peter77 | how do I set a critical power percentage in xfce? | 15:46 |
peter77 | I know in gnome its done in gconf | 15:46 |
peter77 | anyone? | 15:47 |
vinnl | Sorry | 15:47 |
TheSheep | with gnome-power-preferences, if you have gnome-power-manager installed | 15:47 |
peter77 | TheSheep: gnome-power-manager is installed by default | 15:55 |
peter77 | but that does not let me set the percentage | 15:56 |
TheSheep | peter77: it's the same program as in gnome, so it uses teh same settings | 16:00 |
peter77 | TheSheep, k I'll just install gconf-editor then :-) | 16:04 |

neonkevo | hello, linux n00b here. was hoping maybe someone can give me a hand with my xubuntu install and my nic | 19:55 |
shane_ | hello can i install nimbus in xubuntu | 19:56 |
TheSheep | what's nimbus? | 19:56 |
shane_ | a theme | 19:56 |
TheSheep | what kind of theme? | 19:57 |
neonkevo | shane: i installed it yesterday, it works | 19:57 |
neonkevo | search around for the debian packages | 19:57 |
neonkevo | the only problem with it is that it does not replace the xfce mouse icon on the task pane | 19:57 |
shane_ | but it gets the sweet graphics look | 19:58 |
neonkevo | at least, it didn't replace it for me | 19:58 |
shane_ | how is it spelled i tryed searching it the way i spelled and its wrong | 19:58 |
TheSheep | neonkevo: you can replace that icon manually | 19:58 |
shane_ | TheSheep: search it its an awsome looking desktop theme | 19:59 |
TheSheep | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Nimbus+(Ubuntu+and+Debian)?content=54755 | 19:59 |
TheSheep | this one? | 19:59 |
neonkevo | TheSheep: i haven't messed with it that much but i think i did see the icon somewhere | 19:59 |
neonkevo | yes, thats the theme | 19:59 |
* TheSheep isn ot impressed | 20:00 | |
neonkevo | IMO, the theme isnt that great. it just looks a bit cleaner | 20:00 |
TheSheep | xubuntu's default, Murrina Storm, is pretty clean | 20:01 |
TheSheep | I like jmak's themes though | 20:01 |
neonkevo | colors were a little too dreary for me. i found something a little brighter | 20:01 |
shane_ | http://www.xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Nimbus+theme?content=79571&PHPSESSID=932b029 | 20:01 |
shane_ | theres the the link | 20:01 |
TheSheep | not jimc, jimmac's :) | 20:02 |
neonkevo | give it a shot shane, you might like it | 20:02 |
* TheSheep is using murrina gilouche duo now | 20:02 | |
neonkevo | anyone around that can help me with a nic issue? | 20:03 |
neonkevo | I'll have to try that theme TheSheep. looks like it would look good with the default tango theme | 20:03 |
shane_ | the only thing i got for jimmac is a mouse | 20:04 |
TheSheep | neonkevo: it looks good with the old tangerine | 20:04 |
neonkevo | I'll check it out as soon as i can jump on the net with this xubuntu box | 20:04 |

SuPeRhOmEm | someone knows if for a pc with k6-II 500mhz processor, the 386 compiled kernel runs better? | 20:06 |
Riotta | SuPeRhOmEm: yes | 20:10 |
Riotta | if you will compile yourself it will run a lot better than default one | 20:10 |
Riotta | on that spec | 20:11 |
SuPeRhOmEm | Riotta, I was thinking about install the "linux-386" metapackage, I'm not good with kernel compilations | 20:11 |
SuPeRhOmEm | but if the 386 is better than the generic version, i'm on it :) | 20:12 |
Riotta | you are talking about older version of *ubuntu ? than 8.04 | 20:12 |
Riotta | cause in 8.04 there isn't such thing | 20:13 |
SuPeRhOmEm | oh really? i'm using gutsy, upgraded from feisty | 20:14 |
Riotta | like 386 compiled kernel | 20:14 |
Riotta | in gutsy should be | 20:14 |
Riotta | but hardy haven't got | 20:14 |
SuPeRhOmEm | oh my... | 20:15 |
SuPeRhOmEm | can't believe it | 20:15 |
Riotta | compiling kernel isn't so hard | 20:15 |
Riotta | and you have it optimised good for your machine | 20:16 |
SuPeRhOmEm | well... but the drivers are a bit hard to compile | 20:16 |
SuPeRhOmEm | my computer is really old.. all onboard with a pc-chips motherboard | 20:16 |
SuPeRhOmEm | it was a miracle to set xubuntu running on it | 20:17 |
Riotta | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 20:17 |
Riotta | how much ram it got ? | 20:17 |
SuPeRhOmEm | 512mb | 20:17 |
Riotta | well it's more than minimum for xubuntu | 20:17 |
Riotta | :D | 20:18 |
Riotta | which target is 192mb | 20:18 |
SuPeRhOmEm | but the cpu load is almost all the time 100% | 20:18 |
Riotta | I think it's kernel fault If you would compile it you can pick from configuration list exact processor type | 20:19 |
Riotta | AMD K6 2 | 20:19 |
SuPeRhOmEm | yep! | 20:19 |
SuPeRhOmEm | I heard about a program that helps you to compile a new kernel, omni- something, do u know that? | 20:20 |
Riotta | I would encourage you to compile kernel by yourself and disable drivers which you don't need | 20:20 |
Riotta | cause default ubuntu kernel has many modules compiled to be VERY compatible | 20:20 |
Riotta | :P | 20:20 |
Riotta | didn't heard about it | 20:20 |
SuPeRhOmEm | well, i'll try to recompile it.. i really need a performance improvement :) | 20:22 |
Riotta | also I can recommend you disabling unwanted/uneeded daemons | 20:22 |
Riotta | in /etc/init.d you have plenty of files which executable right | 20:23 |
Riotta | if you will took that right that daemon whouldn't be loaded at next boot | 20:23 |
Riotta | it will save you some memory/cpu cycles | 20:23 |
SuPeRhOmEm | I have already did it, but it wasn't enough | 20:24 |
Riotta | kk | 20:24 |
SuPeRhOmEm | do u think it's better to upgrade to hardy before compiling a new kernel? | 20:24 |
Riotta | well it depends on you | 20:25 |
jokoon | Odd-rationale TheSheep I still have a problem with xfce : it doesnt start, I tried alt f2, doesn't display anything, no terminal either... | 20:25 |
jokoon | please help | 20:25 |
Riotta | newer distribution = newer versions of packages. fixes, new features | 20:25 |
jokoon | my power can't stand gnome | 20:25 |
jokoon | I really need xfce | 20:25 |
Riotta | jokoon: did you installed xubuntu by apt-get or you install it from scratch from cd? | 20:26 |
jokoon | from apt-get | 20:26 |
Riotta | did you installed xfc or xubuntu-desktop metapackage ? | 20:27 |
jokoon | the xubuntu metapackage | 20:27 |
Riotta | ok | 20:27 |
Riotta | I would recommend you uninstall ubuntu base and install xubuntu-desktop again (if you don't need gnome) | 20:28 |
Riotta | I will give you a command :D | 20:28 |
Riotta | for cleaning this mess | 20:28 |
Riotta | probably somepackage corupted or something | 20:29 |
jokoon | will it keep my gnome settings ? | 20:29 |
shane_ | nimbus doesnt feature the full efects in xubuntu? | 20:30 |
Riotta | yes | 20:30 |
Riotta | settings will be fine | 20:30 |
shane_ | its diff then the site previews | 20:30 |
Riotta | jokoon: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/19643/ | 20:31 |
Riotta | it's one big command | 20:31 |
Riotta | jokoon: but wait | 20:32 |
Riotta | your can also | 20:32 |
Riotta | try to see if you have set correct shortcut keys | 20:32 |
jokoon | yes ? | 20:32 |
jokoon | hum | 20:32 |
Riotta | Applications -> Settings -> keyboard | 20:32 |
jokoon | why ? | 20:32 |
Riotta | then shortcuts | 20:33 |
jokoon | when I do alt f2 ? | 20:33 |
Riotta | and check | 20:33 |
Riotta | if you have alt+f2 set correctly | 20:33 |
jokoon | or when I do ctrl alt F2 to hae a term ? | 20:33 |
jokoon | my problem is that when I start a xfce session, I have a bright blue background | 20:33 |
jokoon | with the cursor | 20:33 |
jokoon | but nothing else | 20:33 |
Riotta | ah | 20:34 |
Riotta | so I woud recommend you the first step | 20:34 |
jokoon | nothing lighter ? | 20:34 |
Riotta | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/19643/ | 20:34 |
Riotta | probably some package | 20:34 |
jokoon | yesyes I have it | 20:34 |
Riotta | have been coruppted while you were downloading it | 20:34 |
Riotta | and this is the cause | 20:34 |
Riotta | don't be afraid on your settings | 20:35 |
Riotta | all your settings are stored in your home dir | 20:35 |
Riotta | and it will be not touched | 20:35 |
jokoon | corrupted ? why isn't there some hash setting with apt get | 20:35 |
jokoon | hash check | 20:35 |
jokoon | I mean | 20:35 |
jokoon | it is going some long wait | 20:36 |
Riotta | well it could be a memory fault | 20:36 |
Riotta | it happens | 20:36 |
jokoon | I also experience a lot crashes with firefox | 20:36 |
jokoon | b5 or rc | 20:36 |
jokoon | when I have gmail open | 20:36 |
Riotta | i remember one guy yesterday that had similar problem to you | 20:36 |
jokoon | when I close the gmail tab | 20:36 |
Riotta | with xfce | 20:37 |
jokoon | and did he find a solution ? | 20:37 |
Riotta | and he just didn't installed it cleanly somehow | 20:37 |
jokoon | ok | 20:37 |
Riotta | so when he installed it properly it worked | 20:37 |
jokoon | but I'm removing all gnome package ? | 20:38 |
Riotta | yeah all except those not used by xfce | 20:39 |
Riotta | and without settings ofc | 20:39 |
jokoon | so xfce will work | 20:39 |

shane_ | TheSheep: in aplications im trying to get konversation to go in pannel so when i close it it will stay open | 21:44 |
TheSheep | shane_: I don't knwo about kde apps, but it should be somewhere in the program's settings | 21:45 |
jokoon | Riotta Is there a setting somewhere so I can choose the position of button on the drag bar ?ike the menu button, minimize, close, maximize buttons ? | 21:46 |
Riotta | djouallah: sudo gdmsetup | 21:46 |

Riotta | jokoon: I don't think so | 21:46 |
djouallah | Riotta, thanks | 21:46 |
jokoon | : ( | 21:46 |
Riotta | you mean the title bar ? | 21:47 |
djouallah | btw, i was expecting it to be in the menu | 21:47 |
Riotta | themes ? | 21:47 |
TheSheep | shane_: xchat or pidgin, I think, but I like irssi best | 21:47 |
Riotta | or you mean... | 21:47 |
TheSheep | shane_: but irssi is a text-mode application | 21:47 |
Riotta | jokoon: what exactly you wanna to achive ?:) | 21:47 |
shane_ | TheSheep: ok also is there a msn chat nockoff in xfce | 21:47 |
TheSheep | djouallah: it is, in settings->login window | 21:47 |
TheSheep | shane_: pidgin should handle msn | 21:48 |
djouallah | TheSheep, me silly | 21:48 |
shane_ | TheSheep: yah i dont like pidgin at all i have kmess now | 21:48 |
TheSheep | shane_: you could search in synaptic for msn | 21:48 |
jokoon | Riotta in gnome you can can set the buttons positions with some string in gconf-editor metacity stuff, you just change to close,minimize;maximize,menu | 21:49 |
TheSheep | shane_: I'm sure you will find several ones | 21:49 |
shane_ | TheSheep: ok | 21:49 |
jokoon | for example I want the close button at the left, not at the right, mac os "style" | 21:49 |
TheSheep | jokoon: you can set it in wm settings, just drag the buttons | 21:50 |
Riotta | ah I don't think so you can change theme of the window borders only | 21:50 |
jokoon | TheSheep not these buttons the one at each top of the window, the drag bar | 22:01 |
TheSheep | jokoon: go to settings, setting manager, window manager | 22:02 |
TheSheep | jokoon: on the right you can see two frames with buttons | 22:02 |
TheSheep | jokoon: drag them around | 22:02 |
jokoon | oh yes | 22:03 |
jokoon | I thought that was menu buttons like generic save etc | 22:03 |
TheSheep | the icons are not very intuitive | 22:04 |
TheSheep | I guess they should take them from the theme | 22:04 |
