=== jesse_ is now known as Guest88347 [02:41] Anyone know how to get a LAMP server installed on xubuntu? how to get the components? [02:43] The components are the same for all systems. You can use synaptic Package Manager to install [02:43] Apache, MySql, and Php [02:43] okay... [02:44] all right.. [02:44] thanks [02:44] np [03:00] sup [03:16] can someone help me configure dual displays on a laptop? [03:46] \join #new2irc [03:46] oops [03:48] cystic850, whats the problem at all? your xubuntu isnt detecting both displays? [04:27] !app menu [04:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about app menu [04:27] !applications [04:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about applications [04:27] !menu [04:27] Sorry, I don't know anything about menu [04:27] how do i edit the apps dropdown menu? [04:28] nvm [05:44] R1cochet: are you still there? [06:34] http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.7621 <-- great logo for a battery [08:02] !fluxsmb [08:02] Sorry, I don't know anything about fluxsmb [08:03] What's the program called that does the network thingie? [08:03] Apparently not "fluxsmb" [08:03] !fusesmb [08:03] fusesmb is a tool that allows easy access to shared folders (smb) on a network. Links with more info: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FuseSmb [08:03] nvm [10:59] Hullo. I'm on a PC right now but I've got a laptop running Xubuntu (Hardy Heron) elsewhere, which I'm about to go visit. I've got a new usb wireless network adaptor for it (ZD1211B) and just want to be prepared in case it's not entirely straight forward... [11:00] Can anyone think of anything I particuarly need to keep in mind? [11:01] Gandhi, you could search google; it seems that a few people have had problems with it [11:01] knome : *nod* I am doing :) [11:01] I've never had any hiccups with it [11:02] I've got a-link usb thingie with zd1211 and it has been a true lifesaver [11:02] hmh [11:02] Myrtti : Glad to hear it. [11:04] So it should just plug n' play? I don't need to download anything extra, or fiddle with any terminal commands? [11:09] should be pretty much p'n'p [11:10] pay and pray? [11:20] ponce n' pants? [11:23] * Gandhi ponders the plethora of possible 'P's [13:25] i d/l xbunto to my pc and do i have to make somthing to like a boot disk to install on a new pc [13:26] If you downloads a file that ends in .iso, you have to burn the image to a cd [13:27] don't copy the file, make sure you select burn image or write image [13:27] ok [13:28] Then reboot with the cd in your drive and install Xubuntu from the cd [13:29] ok [13:57] charlie- disk image option right when i am buring the cd [13:57] Yes, that is right. [13:58] one other question is....ubunto as long as it has picked up the network card...North american cable internet should work fine [13:59] That's right. 8.04 works pretty good on that. If you have problems, ask here or on the mailing list [13:59] xubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com [14:01] thanks a lot and have a great day...charlie [14:02] * charlie-tca nods :) [14:40] hi there [14:40] hello here [14:42] can anyone help me i have two Linux computers and only 1 printer, how can i share that printer from: Xubuntu to: Ubuntu? [14:43] robert22_, xubuntu is basically the same than ubuntu [14:44] robert22_, have you looked at the printer settings? [14:46] knome, Im very new with Xubuntu and Ubuntu is there a sharing option under printer settings? [14:47] robert22_, i suppose there is. i have no real experience on sharing printers in a unix network, and can't really even help as i don't have printer [14:47] robert22_, you could search ubuntuforums.org, if you're stuck, or visit #ubuntu [14:47] robert22_, there's usually more people online and available to help [14:48] knome, ok thx [14:48] yw [14:56] robert22_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers [15:09] odd-rationale. thanks I will get mutch use of that, ty very mutch [16:21] hi, i'm moving from windows to linux now. i used to use linux some time ago, and now i want to use it again [16:22] i work with programming and webdesign, used softwares as fireworks and dreamweaver [16:22] are there equivalents on linux xubuntu? [16:22] I don't get how my Norcent monitor is working on my old xorg.conf configurations. [16:23] I guess I should just accept it, no? [16:45] karlhx, http://tips.webdesign10.com/using-linux-for-web-design-and-development-ubuntu might help you [16:48] the post is from 2 years ago, but i'll read it anyway, hope all the softwares listed there are still being udpdated [16:48] thank you knome [16:48] most of them are, i think [16:49] knome: new gimp (dv version) is sweet [16:49] dev version [16:49] TheSheep, haven't tried and possibly will not [16:49] knome: moving away from linux? [16:49] TheSheep, no, but i have a PS license [16:49] I'm new to Ubuntu Linux and I am trying to play yahoo game pool online but when I log in it says... This game cannot be played using your current settings. Please, try the following: Check to make sure that java is enabled in your browser. (learn more) If you do not have java installed you may download it here. To learn more about java support for browsers, visit our help pages. I have tried to install java support b [16:49] knome: I didn't know there was PS for linux [16:50] TheSheep, there isn't [16:50] !java | pc_dude [16:50] pc_dude: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [16:50] TheSheep, there is PS for VMWare Player for unix ;) [16:50] knome: but you still get the clumsy windows interface [16:50] well... [16:51] no can do always [16:51] imho, PS is superior to gimp [16:51] also PS works quite well with wine [16:51] I've tried to do this but am not sure I got it done or got it done correctly! [16:51] but wacom tablets need some more development before i can start using PS w/ wine [16:51] *wacom tablet drivers [16:52] knome: works well with gimp :) there is even hotplug now [16:52] TheSheep, the problem is not that they wouldn't *work at all* [16:52] TheSheep, but really, PS can handle all the features way better. [16:53] TheSheep, or to be more exact, windows drivers can handle ... better than linux drivers [16:54] knome: since they implemented smoothing, Im happy with the linux drivers [16:54] knome: maybe the problem is between linux and wine? [16:54] TheSheep, when was that? [16:54] knome: some year ago, I think [16:54] hmm.. [16:55] i might try it [16:55] anyway i'm happy with vmware mostly [16:57] I'm really allergic to windows user interface [16:57] ouchhh [16:57] those interface fonts hurt me [16:58] ok, much better now [17:00] installed my new monitor, and now thunar is so large I can't do anything with it. [17:01] I can't minimize it or anything. [17:01] alt+drag [17:02] worked like a charm. :) [17:02] TheSheep, doesn't seem to work so well [17:46] where is the config file for auto-mounting? [17:46] CppIsWeird, you probably mean /etc/fstab [17:47] no, thats not it, like when you plug in a memory card and it automatically sets that up [17:47] Can you restrict registered middle-clicks speed? [17:48] I mean for mouse event detection. [17:49] And maybe better talk about registered middle-click frequency. [18:27] hey [18:27] how can i see which partition is my ext2fs partition [18:27] hello everyones [18:27] im on live cd, and have xubuntu installed, but the live cd didnt load that [18:28] I choosed 'e' on linux entry into grup menu; the first voice appeared as root (hd0,3) but I saw that the ext2fs partition was into 2!!! [18:28] So I changed it into root(hd0,2) with 'e' option. [18:28] this guy doesnt explain where he saw [18:28] i'm italian so sorry for my english [18:28] I got a problem with xubuntu [18:29] I can't ping my gateway [18:29] xubuntu stay in a mixed lan [18:29] i also tried this grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 but get Error 15: File not found [18:30] when I ping 192.1968.0.1 it give me estination Host Unreachable [18:30] some tips?

[18:47] sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [18:47] and if that throws errors, reboot [18:48] nnull: you won't be able to use the livecd installer on 128. The livecd requires 192... You can use the alternate installer. You can trim things down to get it to run [18:48] !lowmwm | nnull [18:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about lowmwm [18:48] !lowmem | nnull [18:48] nnull: For installing on low memory systems, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements. [18:49] thankyou, i did use the alternate cd, but the same as all ubuntu installs ive done, it doesnt let me select any software it just installs ? [18:50] yes, it just installs. Once you are done installing you can use synaptic,, apt-get, aptitude or whatever to add or remove anything else... Of course you can also choose the 'expert' mode on the installer and then you get a lot of control [18:51] of course in the expert mode you probably will be asked far more questions then you really want to answer [18:52] vidd: ok done [18:52] zoredacheƺ ah [18:53] from the link u provided, it seems i should be running fluxbox instead of xfce, as its lighter? [18:53] it seems to be working fine in the therminal [18:53] hello [18:53] is anyone here? [18:53] vidd: [18:53] I have a question [18:54] nnull: I am not familar with flux.

[18:55] the ones that default to the top and bottom of the screen [18:55] nnull: sure. Of course xubuntu without gui is identical to ubuntu without a gui...
