[11:47] I thing its bether. isn't it ? [11:49] Hello there, I need help installing xubuntu. [11:50] JinKazama: I don't know, it might be, but usually, you shouldn't update just "because it might be better" [11:50] Carouselbeast: do you want someone to hold your hand, or do you have specific problems? [11:52] I have a CD with xubuntu 8.04, and I have successfully installed it on systems in the past. However, now I am trying to install it on a system (1700 mHz P4, 640 mb RAM), and it gets stuck after the loading screen. I get the menu where I get to choose "Live CD" "Install Xubuntu" "Check CD" and so on. I choose "Install Xubuntu", and it starts to load. However, after it finishes loading, nothing more happens. [11:54] which graphics card does that computer have? [11:54] ATI Radeon 9600 I think [11:55] It's not my computer, I'm doing it for a friend [11:57] I want to see If the new version have this option : if there a torrent with many files , I want to choose just few of them. in my version its not posible to do this before to start downloading. [11:57] I should mention, that computer had an installation of WinXP, but one day it just wouldn't boot up, not even in failsafe mode, it would finish the XP loading screen, but then reboot. After a couple of tries, it would get stuck on the motherboard screen. I suspect that the XP installation is totally lost. From what I have been told, it seems like the harddrive or possibly the PSU isn't working as it should. [11:58] So I'm trying to install Xubuntu now. [12:03] The system has also been upgraded with extra RAM, should I strip down the system to the bare minimums and try ?

[20:12] it's mornin here... but ppl sleep weird hours lol [20:12] xD [20:12] Mr_Fixit, you mean packages.ubuntu.com? [20:12] (Because that works for me) [20:12] i keep starting to download at about 400kbps then it slows to a crawl and then stops within seconds.. [20:13] Mr_Fixit, is that in Synaptic or from that website? [20:13] is that the site? [20:13] Mr_Fixit, what do you mean by "the site"? [20:13] i dunno.. the default xubuntu 6.04 package manager [20:13] Ah, OK [20:14] 6.06 you mean, I guess [20:14] lol yea maybe lol.. [20:14] yea 6.06 [20:14] Mr_Fixit, what you could do is download the package from packages.ubuntu.com until the server for your country is back up, or you could choose another server [20:15] choose another server ok... that's in the file menu? [20:15] I'm looking it up :) [20:15] Mr_Fixit, check Applications->System->Software Sources [20:15] Mr_Fixit, there's an entry labeled "Download from:" [20:16] If you select "Other" you can "Select Best Server" [20:16] in software properties?? [20:17] Mr_Fixit, where's that? [20:17] the same place that the software sources should be [20:17] but the sources isn't in there [20:18] Mr_Fixit, ah, might be because you're using 6.06, I wouldn't know by heart how it's called [20:18] Mr_Fixit, are you in Synaptic right now? [20:18] yea [20:18] i'm on 2 different boxes btw [20:18] Mr_Fixit, selecting Settings->Repositories will also get you there [20:18] OK [20:18] yea ok same thing then.. [20:18] OK [20:18] i have a tab called channels? [20:19] Mr_Fixit, not sure what it's called for you, but it's the first tab on the left [20:19] There's supposed to be a Download from: label [20:20] where i can choose sites of either binary or source? [20:21] Sorry? [20:21] i dunno lol... i'll play around and ask after.. [20:22] Mr_Fixit, perhaps you could send me a screenshot of the screen? [20:22] yea i could do that.. [20:22] umm msn? [20:22] Mr_Fixit, you can upload it at imageshack.us and post the link [20:22] ok then one min [20:24] hmm.. i dunno if my laptop kb is set up right cuz it won't let me screenshot.. [20:25] Mr_Fixit, that's probably Xubuntu 6.06's problem, but you can take a screenshot with the Gimp [20:26] In File->Acquire->Screenshot [20:26] ahh ok i'll go check then.. [20:26] ok [20:27] hi [20:27] can i switch keyboard layout vi Shortcut like Alt+shift? [20:28] S-i-A, I believe you can't atm, but there is a panel plugin that allows you to do it with the click of a button [20:29] vinnl, thanx , i know that [20:29] but under kubuntu or ubuntu can i switching via shortcut [20:29] S-i-A, I know [20:30] http://img166.imageshack.us/my.php?image=packrh3.gif [20:31] there vinnl [20:31] Aha [20:31] Mr_Fixit, could you also send a screenshot of the "Internet Updates" tab? [20:31] sure [20:33] http://img366.imageshack.us/my.php?image=secpackna2.gif [20:34] Aha... [20:34] heck.. if i ran all my ip's at once i could have like 6 clones lol [20:34] :P [20:35] I'm afraid you'd have to edit each binary channel separately [20:35] so go into each and select a server? [20:35] I think you'd actually have to manually change the URL [20:35] (Xubuntu's made progress since then :)) [20:35] yea ack i just seen lol.. [20:35] Which packages do you want anyway? :) [20:36] the updates.. [20:36] about 100 [20:36] Ah, well, I'd recommend to wait another day or so and hope the servers will be back online then [20:36] yea lol well thanks for lookin into it anyways lol [20:36] np :) [20:37] i haven't checked out my sound yet but if it's not supported i'm comin back lol [20:37] ? [20:38] the 2 things i've had problems with on the last 8 or so distros i've tried where alsa and wifi.. [20:38] the wifi works now lol [20:38] \0/ [20:38] haven't tried the alsa yet cuz i wanted to update [20:39] do ya happen to know where i could find a sound file off the top of your head?? [20:39] *in the comp lol [20:40] found some.. [20:41] /usr/share/example-content I believe :) [20:41] yea i went /usr/share/sounds [20:42] it doesn't work lol [20:42] went into alsamixer and it's all unmuted [20:42] !sound [20:42] If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [20:43] where's the volume control lmao [20:43] Hehe, I suppose that's written for Ubuntu [20:44] hehe [20:44] But those websites might help [20:44] yea i'll check em out thanks [20:46] Anyway, I'm off, bye and good luck [20:54] n8 [20:58] can i switch keyboard layout vi Shortcut like Alt+shift? [20:59] that was my question :) [21:00] the solution is so " edit /etc/X11/xorg.con and edit the Xkboption so [21:00] Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle" [21:00] that is for Alt+shift to change keyboard layout [21:01] i will justy let you know for next user :) [21:01] thank you to and #xorg [21:14] Hi again [21:14] can I acess bios through xububto? [21:14] ya might have to do it on boot up.. [21:14] Cause in the startup I can't because xubuntu boots to fast [21:15] i'm not totally sure but most os' ya do [21:15] never had this problem before [21:15] haha an os boots too fast lol [21:15] gonna explain:P [21:15] w8 [21:15] usually that's not a problem lol... try using a bootable disc? [21:15] Tibbelit: if you're not sure what key to press to enter the bios on bootup try a few - common one are f2, f10, f12, del [21:16] your machine will alawys take the same amount of time to start up before loading an OS [21:16] have to hit it *right* when the machine comes up though, before the bootloader comes up (whether it's a linux or a windwos bootloader) [21:16] I want to boot from cd/ get into bios... I press F12 (Select boot device, strange you access bios here too)... Ok I get to the menu... BUT before I have a chance to chose what option I want, linux starts to boot:S [21:17] Yes, bbootable CD [21:17] I'm sure wich key to press [21:17] linux boots while you are configuring your bios? [21:17] no [21:17] yea that's weird lol [21:18] while he tries to get into it.. [21:18] When I press D (to get to bios) linux has allready started to boot, so I can't access:( [21:18] really strange [21:18] never had this problem before:P [21:18] hit the key sooner, as soon as the manufacturer screen comes up on your monitor [21:19] even b4 the monitor reacts to the boot... should work.. [21:19] ok, have tested it, but it won't hurt to try again [21:20] won't work [21:21] are you sure f12 is the right key? === tuna-fish is now known as tuna [21:21] yes [21:22] it says it on the screen [21:22] did you do any updates/flashing of your bios or anything lately? [21:22] no [21:23] The only thing I did, before installing xubunto was to set the screen to "streech" while startup:P [21:23] so no important change at all [21:23] to what? [21:24] "full screen" instead of "smal" [21:24] :P [22:22] so any ideas why my eth0 and wlan0 would burst transmit for a few seconds then shut off???? [22:57] Hi [22:57] Is anyone using samba? [22:57] how do I make linked folders visible under Samba-shared dirctories?
