| jwishnie_ | hello all. Having a problem with keyboard layout settings. When I set them from the mcs-settings panel, they revert to old settings when I logout, and log back in | 04:00 |
| jwishnie_ | googling brings up reference to an app called 'xfkc' which is _not_ in Xubuntu (but available in Debian Lenny) that must be called with 'xfkc --apply' at the beginning of a session. Is there an equivalent when using the Keyboard panel via MCS?? | 04:01 |

| Jammet | Hello there.... | 09:30 |
| Jammet | I've been using xubuntu for a while now, but I was wondering... is there a way to actually update to more recent versions of specific programs? Without compiling them? I would prefer to keep using the package system for that. | 09:31 |
| TheSheep | Jammet: check getdeb.net | 09:31 |
| TheSheep | Jammet: some programs will also offer a .deb fle for download form the project's page | 09:31 |
| Jammet | Thanks! | 09:34 |
| Jammet | Is there a way to perhaps add this as a source in the package manager? | 09:36 |
| TheSheep | Jammet: I don't think so | 09:44 |
| wols | !backports | 11:32 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 11:32 |
| wols | if a single file on the desktop CD is bad, can I still use it? maybe do a minimal install of sorts and get the rest via online repos? | 12:20 |
| TheSheep | if a single file is bad, probably more of them are currupted too | 12:23 |
| wols | the cd check only said a single file | 13:04 |
| wols | but I downloaded the minimal cd and I'm much happier now. and I'm alrady installin xubuntu-desktop :) | 13:04 |

| sharazjek | evening all | 23:32 |
| sharazjek | running xubuntu 8.04 on a dell inspiron 2200 | 23:33 |
| sharazjek | wireless can be enabled/disabled with (Fn+F2) | 23:34 |
| sharazjek | but theres no way to tell if its on or not (as network manager wont work with bloody broadcom drivers) | 23:35 |
| sharazjek | sooooo, is there an option I can set to ensure that this Fn+F2 switch is on at boot? Its inconsistent, sometimes on at boot, sometimes off | 23:36 |
| sharazjek | and iwconfig or wifi-radar give me an easy way to know | 23:36 |
