Izemanshould i use my ip addresses?00:00
zoredacheOdd-rationale: erm, why the last dhclient?00:00
Odd-rationaleIzeman: yes.00:00
zoredacheIzeman: of course :)00:00
Odd-rationalezoredache: umm. not needed? ok...00:00
Odd-rationaleIzeman: then: gksudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf00:00
zoredacheOdd-rationale: it starts the dhcp client... which you don't want if you are setting a static00:01
Odd-rationaleIzeman: then add the: nameserver ip.of.dns.server00:01
Odd-rationalee.g. nameserver 208.67.220.22000:01
Odd-rationalezoredache: i thought you still needed it after giving the settings in ifconfig.... but you may be right...00:02
Odd-rationalefor reference: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=68449500:04
Odd-rationalei gtg eat ... bbl....00:04
zoredacheIzeman: the steps he gave you will set a static address but it will be temporary and will go away after a reboot00:07
Izemanahhhh...kay00:07
zoredacheThe way to set it up permanently is to adjust your /etc/network/interfaces00:07
zoredacheso it looks about like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/45980/00:07
diggletis compiz avaible to use with xubuntu?00:08
Izemanits mysterious that there is no network adapter in the network setting window...00:08
zoredachethe resolvconf must be installed or the dns settings in the interfaces file to be used  ( sudo apt-get install resolvconf )00:08
zoredachedigglet: yes, but don't ask me how to use it or set it up00:09
diggletzoredache: how can i use it or set it up? :D00:09
zoredachepfft... eyecandie is for young people... I just need my computer to work.  :p00:09

Odd-rationaleubuntu_: yes you can access ntfs drives on a live cd...02:42
Odd-rationaleubuntu_: but instead of trying to email the files.. can you just copy them to a usb drive?02:43

b3ny0-hi, trying to find proprietary nvidia-drivers for geforce4 go 42004:36
ubuntuguys, don't know what the prob is, but even tho i had hardy live working an hour ago, it will not now completely load.  gets to a black screen with cursor in the middle and will not go on to desktop from there.  pulled an old  6.06 out of my bag of trix, but i don't know if or how to access ntfs files with it.  will 6.06 do this?04:36
Chickengeorge2:)..... still sitting and drinking :)04:36
Chickengeorge2hmmm i am sharing SMB to XP with hardy 804 with smb-package04:37
favroubuntu: you can install ntfs-3g on the live cd for that04:37
Chickengeorge2b3ny0-:   try to find nvidia in your package manager.. then you will be happy... i found it there and my fx5200 128 runns very well04:38
favrob3ny0-: shouldn't that use the normal nvidia driver?04:38
ubuntufavro, on lts 6.06?  couldn't find it in the community docs, can you tell me how?04:38
b3ny0-I don04:38
b3ny0-t know what the normal one is called04:38
b3ny0-:)04:38
favroubuntu: you install it over the net - the live cd does this but the things you install aren't saved04:39

ubuntunot finding ntfs-3g on synaptic, anybody know how to install with command line?04:44
Chickengeorge2thats all i can say04:44

ubuntuChickengeorge2: ok, how do i get Krusader?04:46

wolfwalker(Sorry for what is probably a really newbie question)06:24
Catoptromancythunar06:24
wolfwalkerWhat is Thunar, and is that an answer to me or the continuation of a convo that started before I came in?06:25
Catoptromancy!thunar06:25
ubottuThunar is a file manager for !Xfce. It is a lightweight alternative to !Nautilus and is quite similar. More info at: http://thunar.xfce.org/index.html - Want to Replace Nautilus with Thunar? See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease06:25
wolfwalker!thunar06:25
wolfwalkerBeat me to it :)06:25
Catoptromancyhehe06:25
wolfwalkerDoes that psychocats instruction work in Xubuntu?06:26
Chickengeorge2try Gnome-commander06:26
Chickengeorge2or similar 2 side -fileanager06:27
wolfwalkerI know there are some differences.......... for example, ubuntu-restricted-extras is different than xubuntu-restricted-extras.06:27
wolfwalkerSo when I change from Nautilus to Thunar, where do I go to get a standard My Computer screen where I can see all my hard drives, optical drives, etc?06:30
Chickengeorge2use gnome-kommander or konquerror or how its called06:30
wolfwalkero.O06:31
wolfwalker!gnome-commander06:31
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about gnome-commander06:31
Chickengeorge2then its easy06:31

matmomorning all. I'm new to (x)ubuntu and wondering if I can install xubuntu 8.04.1 to a 1G usb stick for live boot *with* option to do a HD install? I have UNetbootin and the image and I am ready to write but are there any caveats I should know about?10:43
favrowww.pendrivelinux.com knows all about that10:45
matmofavro: doesn't seem to cover usb boot creation from windows. I read a lot of web stuff yesterday and UNetbootin looked like it does the job. I am mainly wondering if after creating and booting from USB if then xubuntu has the option to do a HD install or if only ubuntu-live cd has that option?10:52
favroafaik only the live cd has that option but it wouldn't suprise me if I was wrong about that :)10:54
matmook, thanks. Already kicked off xubuntu-2-usb so I will know soon enough :-)10:55
favrocome back and let me know please :)10:55
matmook11:00
matmofavro: unetbootin installs a boot menu that includes an option to install to hd (do not know yet if it has dual boot option) and xubuntu has the install option right there on the desktop. Looking good :-)11:44
favromatmo: that's what the live cd has - have you installed it yet? - on the usb?11:46
matmoyep, used unetbootin to install xubuntu to usb stick then booted from usb. Not ready to install to HD yet though (def not today)11:51
favrogreat - I only use linux so windows issues are foreign to me11:53
matmoHaven't had a dedicated linux box for years but got an Akoya Mini this week. ATM using wubi on it while I iron out any issues before doing a hd install. Ubuntu running great on it and my first experience of compwiz-fusion. Now planning on dual booting two other notebooks, so impressed am I :-)11:58
matmo(hence the usb boot to check things before any perm install)12:00
favroI think that is a top way to check hardware out first :)12:01
matmoagree. I'm now wondering if I can get a multi-distro boot option on a 4G usb stick!12:05

hvgotcodeshey what is the best way to get flash player going on a fresh xubuntu install?15:05
hvgotcodescan anyone help me enable my audio keys for xfce?15:24

Odd-rationalesudo apt-get install xubuntu-restricted-extras15:37
Odd-rationalehvgotcodes: for multimedia keys15:39
Odd-rationale!keys | hvgotcodes15:40
ubottuhvgotcodes: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts15:40
hvgotcodesOdd-rationale: thanx15:41
hvgotcodesOdd-rationale: i enabled XAA for compiz performance and now my suspend to ram wont work (suspends all right, but doesn't come back).  do you know how to fix this?15:42

hvgotcodesOdd-rationale: it works without XAA enabled15:44

hvgotcodesfor xubuntu is there a keyboard shortcuts program?20:31
DFlamenot sure. Have you tried having a look around Synaptic Package Manager for one?20:35
hvgotcodesDFlame: i would think there would be  a default one, like in gnome -- i need to get my multimedia keys goiiong.  someone suggested keytouch but my keyboard is not recognized20:41
DFlamethere is a keytouch-editor package which might help you with keytouch. It supposedly allows you to manually configure the keys20:43
DFlamethere's also a different package called hotkeys20:43
hvgotcodeshow come with gnome the multimedia keys work with no tweaking?20:43
hvgotcodesall my keys work except the volume related ones20:44
DFlameXfce must not have the functionality built in yet. Keep in mind that Xubuntu is for low-med spec computers so a lot of the bells and whistles are removed20:45
hvgotcodeshmm should i just install gnome?20:46
DFlametry the editor package first20:46
hvgotcodesi chose xfce because i didn't want gnome-bloat -- i only use the wm, none of the gnome apps20:46
DFlameif that doesnt work to your liking, try the hotkeys instead20:46
hvgotcodesdo you know how to use the editor?20:47
DFlamethough i wouldn't justify changing desktop environment just for a few keys20:47
DFlameabsolutely no idea at all. try running them from the terminal, and looking up documentation on the net20:47
Odd-rationaleyes xfce has keyboard shorcuts20:54
