| Twili | I guess they don't | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| Twili | too bad | 00:01 |
| Twili | They really really should release a UMPC image like they did with Ubuntu. | 00:01 |
| nikolam | hi i have trouble trying to remove linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-21-generic | 01:00 |
| nikolam | after automatic update to linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-22 the other day | 01:00 |
| crimsun | what sort of trouble? | 01:00 |
| nikolam | the trouble was didnt have enough space on /boot | 01:01 |
| nikolam | and removing -21 stopped | 01:01 |
| nikolam | package is marked broken | 01:01 |
| crimsun | right, you can hack around that by removing older kernels | 01:01 |
| nikolam | but can1 be uninstalled | 01:02 |
| nikolam | but it is not actually there | 01:02 |
| crimsun | what is not actually where? | 01:02 |
| nikolam | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/82234/ | 01:03 |
| crimsun | nikolam: touch it | 01:04 |
| crimsun | i.e., sudo touch /boot/System.map-2.6.24-21-generic | 01:04 |
| crimsun | then allow l-u-m-2.6.24-21-generic to be removed | 01:04 |
| nikolam | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/82236/ | 01:04 |
| nikolam | ok | 01:04 |
| nikolam | i did touch | 01:06 |
| nikolam | but i cant remove package | 01:07 |
| crimsun | what's the error? | 01:08 |
| nikolam | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/82237/ | 01:09 |
| crimsun | so create that directory | 01:10 |
| crimsun | sudo mkdir -p /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic | 01:11 |
| nikolam | Ok, It worked :) | 01:14 |
| nikolam | thanks crimsun | 01:14 |
| crimsun | np | 01:14 |
| nikolam | Next time, I should take closer look to message with error | 01:14 |
| nikolam | also i should1nt make /boot so small | 01:15 |
| nikolam | it is on eeepc, i was wrongly thinking of saving space and it resulted in problems | 01:15 |
| crimsun | mine /boot is fairly restricted in size | 01:15 |
| crimsun | s/mine/my/ | 01:15 |
| nikolam | Yes but 50 megs is too small for update, as i see | 01:16 |
| crimsun | yeah, you have to be very deliberate in dist-upgrading, then | 01:17 |
| nikolam | i see that 100 should be min. and 250 will be right for most people | 01:17 |
| nikolam | i have happily 200 on desktop pc | 01:18 |
| crimsun | often it means removing l-r-m and l-u-m manually before applying further l-i upgrades that contain abi bumps | 01:18 |
| nikolam | 10x crimsun :) | 01:27 |

| jon_high9000 | ok. i thought so. had to ask. thanks. | 05:26 |
| Myrtti | I hope he's actually using metacity | 05:28 |
| Myrtti | :-D | 05:28 |
| knome | Myrtti, that's his problem... ;) | 05:28 |
| knome | ....or her | 05:28 |
| * Myrtti is feeling hilarious after 2 hours of sleep | 05:28 | |

| dnyy | Hrm, I installed murinne for a theme, and now my window title bars are gone. :( | 08:28 |
| ULRICH` | hello | 10:54 |
| ULRICH` | I wanna ask somebody if there is any version of COREL that works on UNBUTU 8.10 ? | 10:55 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, what corel product? word perfect, psp? | 10:57 |
| ULRICH` | draw | 10:57 |
| ULRICH` | graphics suite | 10:57 |
| ULRICH` | x3 if is possible | 10:58 |
| ablomen | well i dont see any native versions | 10:59 |
| ablomen | so you might want to check the wine app-db | 10:59 |
| ULRICH` | yes I want | 11:00 |
| ablomen | http://appdb.winehq.org/search_results.php?cx=013271970634691685804%3Abc-56dvxydi&cof=FORID%3A11&q=corel&sa=Search#906 | 11:00 |
| ULRICH` | do you if I need a special driver for the NVIDIA 7300 GT PRO ? | 11:01 |
| ablomen | my guess is that its the normal nvidia driver (it should install that automaticly from the restricted hardware manager app), but its just a guess | 11:02 |
| ablomen | try google :) | 11:02 |
| ULRICH` | sorry...I found a good driver on official NVIDIA site | 11:03 |
| ablomen | oh you dont have/want to install the driver from the site | 11:03 |
| ULRICH` | why ? | 11:04 |
| R1cochet | hhow do i get a gui for xmms2? | 11:04 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, because ubuntu has provided a driver for you | 11:04 |
| ULRICH` | a | 11:04 |
| ULRICH` | ok | 11:04 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, see Menu=>System=>Hardware Drivers | 11:05 |
| ULRICH` | now I`m at work and I want to install unbutu when I`ll go home | 11:05 |
| ULRICH` | ubuntu* | 11:05 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, you might want to look at gxmms2 | 11:06 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, it should be in the repositories | 11:06 |
| R1cochet | will that allow me to change skins as well | 11:06 |
| ULRICH` | ablomen do I neer some codecs to see videos ? | 11:06 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, i have no idea to be honest, dont use it myself :) | 11:06 |
| R1cochet | ok | 11:06 |
| R1cochet | may i ask what you do youse? | 11:07 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, you might, but most of them get installed when you need them (if you use totem) and otherwise there are tonns of good (official) guides | 11:07 |
| ULRICH` | ok | 11:07 |
| ULRICH` | thanx | 11:07 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, for music Rhythmbox and for video VLC/MPlayer/sometimes totem | 11:07 |
| ablomen | mostly mplayer | 11:08 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, np :) | 11:08 |
| R1cochet | ULRICH`: you will want to install xubuntu-restricted-extras, that grabs all the extra pluagins needed for audio/video | 11:09 |
| R1cochet | can you skin rhythmbox? | 11:09 |
| ULRICH` | I have downloaded the dexktop version X64 | 11:09 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, its a gtk client, so it uses the same skin as other gtk apps | 11:09 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, you might want to stick to 32 bit version | 11:10 |
| ablomen | ULRICH`, better support for flash, windows media formats, wine etc | 11:10 |
| ULRICH` | why ? that 64 bit version is nod good ? | 11:10 |
| ULRICH` | ok | 11:10 |
| ablomen | well on a desktop pc youll never know the speed difference, and it can be a pain in the buttox sometimes | 11:10 |
| ULRICH` | thanx again | 11:11 |
| R1cochet | ablomen: do you mean youser interface themes | 11:11 |
| ablomen | R1cochet, yep | 11:11 |
| R1cochet | user* | 11:11 |
| R1cochet | ok | 11:11 |
| ablomen | so it will always look "right" | 11:11 |
| R1cochet | £ãugh¡ñg Òut £öuÐ | 11:11 |
| ablomen | anyway, time for food, im out of here | 11:12 |
| R1cochet | byout i want to change the whole skin like you can in ayoudacioyous or winamp | 11:12 |
| R1cochet | £aters thank you | 11:12 |

| ball | What instruction set is Xubuntu compiled for usually? | 16:36 |
| ball | s/usually// | 16:36 |
| ball | (i.e. will it run on a Pentium?) | 16:42 |
| Odd-rationale | ball: yeah, it will run on most pentiums. | 16:42 |
| ball | Does it require MMX? | 16:43 |
| Odd-rationale | ball: might want to see the supported architect page... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SupportedArchitectures | 16:45 |
| Odd-rationale | see if that helps any... | 16:45 |
| ball | Hmm... makes it sound as though it's compiled with just 80386 instructions, but I doubt that. | 16:49 |
| ball | Perhaps I'll use this box for Oberon. | 16:52 |
| Marky | Would anyone happen to have any sugestions for replacing the wireless network manager in Ubuntu 8.10? It needs to be something I can download and then transfer using a USB key | 17:36 |
| dnyy | My window's title bars have gone missin' after installing a theme that installed murrine. And it won't let me go to the window manager settings, I get an error saying my window manager is unknown. Does xfce not support murrine or what? :/ | 18:46 |

| Twile | But you know what I'd really like, a UMPC (LiveUSB) Distro of Xubuntu like they have for Ubuntu (as of 8.10). One without the need for specail installations like the ones on pendrivelinux | 23:15 |
| Twile | Not that pendrive linux is bad | 23:15 |
| Twile | anyways gotta go | 23:15 |
| Twile | Is there a UMPC image for Xubuntu like there is for Ubuntu (as of 8.10)? It's like a live CD, except persistent and on a USB drive. Not sure if you still have to change the BIOS settings or not though. | 23:31 |
