[00:01] <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.
[01:00] <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?
[01:01] <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
[01:02] <nikolam> but can1 be uninstalled
[01:02] <nikolam> but it is not actually there
[01:02] <crimsun> what is not actually where?
[01:03] <nikolam> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/82234/
[01:04] <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
[01:06] <nikolam> i did touch
[01:07] <nikolam> but i cant remove package
[01:08] <crimsun> what's the error?
[01:09] <nikolam> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/82237/
[01:10] <crimsun> so create that directory
[01:11] <crimsun> sudo mkdir -p /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic
[01:14] <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
[01:15] <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/
[01:16] <nikolam> Yes but 50 megs is too small for update, as i see
[01:17] <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
[01:18] <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
[01:27] <nikolam> 10x crimsun :)
[01:47] <forces> o7
[01:48] <forces> anybody with life?
[01:59] <misreckoning> hi everybody, I just wanted to say that I've installed Xubuntu for the first time (I'm linux user for 5 years or more) and I can't say that I've ever seen my computer running this fast :) thanks! :)
[02:00] <forces> :P
[02:00] <misreckoning> I guess this is because of Xfce :)

[04:38] <likemindead> Yar ...
[05:25] <jon_high9000> hi there. i am new to Xubuntu. my question is regarding metacity themes. i am running intrepid 8.10 do i put downloaded folder into the /usr/share/themes folder to install?
[05:25] <knome> jon_high9000, sure.
[05:26] <jon_high9000> ok. i thought so. had to ask. thanks.
[05:28] <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

[08:28] <dnyy> Hrm, I installed murinne for a theme, and now my window title bars are gone. :(
[10:54] <ULRICH`> hello
[10:55] <ULRICH`> I wanna ask somebody if there is any version of COREL that works on UNBUTU 8.10 ?
[10:57] <ablomen> ULRICH`, what corel product? word perfect, psp?
[10:57] <ULRICH`> draw
[10:57] <ULRICH`> graphics suite
[10:58] <ULRICH`> x3 if is possible
[10:59] <ablomen> well i dont see any native versions
[10:59] <ablomen> so you might want to check the wine app-db
[11:00] <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
[11:01] <ULRICH`> do you if I need a special driver for the NVIDIA 7300 GT PRO ?
[11:02] <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 :)
[11:03] <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
[11:04] <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
[11:05] <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*
[11:06] <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
[11:07] <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
[11:08] <ablomen> mostly mplayer
[11:08] <ablomen> ULRICH`, np :)
[11:09] <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
[11:10] <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
[11:11] <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
[11:12] <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
[12:11] <generalsnus> Is there any way of viewing a LTSP session?  like remote desktop into a thinclient session..
[12:16] <kudi1> how do you keep your current theme but change the bar at that top
[13:55] <generalsnus> 	I have managed to get "student-control-panel" to work, i can see users desktop with the x11vnc.. but how can i control the desktops?
[16:36] <ball> What instruction set is Xubuntu compiled for usually?
[16:36] <ball> s/usually//
[16:42] <ball> (i.e. will it run on a Pentium?)
[16:42] <Odd-rationale> ball: yeah, it will run on most pentiums.
[16:43] <ball> Does it require MMX?
[16:45] <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...
[16:49] <ball> Hmm... makes it sound as though it's compiled with just 80386 instructions, but I doubt that.
[16:52] <ball> Perhaps I'll use this box for Oberon.
[17:36] <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
[18:46] <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? :/

[23:09] <Twile> Hello
[23:11] <Twile> HI
[23:11] <TheSheep> Twile: don't shout :)
[23:12] <Twile> sorry I had caps on by accident
[23:13] <naenae87> ok im running xubuntu 8.04 i think. but only problem is my desktop is at like a 30% Zooom . so everything looks like jumbo size.. does anyone know how to get my desktop to looking normal again>??????????
[23:13] <Twile> Try right clicking on the desktop and go into settings
[23:13] <Twile> It may be displaying at a retarded resolution
[23:13] <TheSheep> naenae87: maybe change your display resolution in setting manager?
[23:13] <naenae87> ok ill try that
[23:14] <Twile> 1240x768 (or something like that)  would be best
[23:14] <naenae87> ok
[23:14] <Twile> ^^
[23:14] <Twile> I gotta go eat noe
[23:14] <Twile> now*
[23:15] <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
[23:31] <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.
