| source | how can I get xfce 4.4.3 in xubuntu 8.04_ | 03:54 |
| source | ? | 03:54 |
| ball | source: what version of Xfce came with it? | 03:55 |
| source | xfce 4.4.2 | 03:57 |
| ball | what does "sudo apt-get update" get you? | 03:59 |
| source | that's no update to xfce 4.4.3 | 04:04 |
| source | do you have xubuntu? | 04:04 |
| ball | Yes | 04:11 |
| ball | What does .3 have that .2 doesn't? | 04:11 |
| source | ball, http://www.xfce.org/documentation/changelogs/4.4.3 | 04:17 |
| ball | I don't know then. Presumably Xubuntu has a maintainer | 04:19 |
| ball | You could ask him or her. | 04:19 |
| vidd | i changed my cdrom out for a dvd burner...how do i make linux see it? | 05:02 |
| ball | vidd: isn't it automatic? | 05:02 |
| vidd | it would appear not | 05:03 |
| vidd | =\ | 05:03 |
| ball | vidd: can the drive do DVD-RAM? | 05:03 |
| vidd | the new one can....the old could not | 05:04 |
| vidd | the old was cust cdrom | 05:04 |
| * ball nods | 05:04 | |
| vidd | *just | 05:04 |
| ball | Di you have a DVD-RAM disc? | 05:04 |
| vidd | i have a dvd | 05:04 |
| ball | Ah, you want to play it? | 05:05 |
| vidd | but even old cd's that pl,ayed in the old drive wont mount in this one | 05:05 |
| ball | vidd: does it have power? | 05:06 |
| vidd | yes....it will load and run an install disk...but i dont want to re-install | 05:07 |
| ball | vidd: that's a good sign. | 05:07 |
| vidd | i assume i need to change fstab | 05:08 |
| ball | vidd: I doubt it | 05:08 |
| vidd | but i dont know alot about it.... | 05:08 |
| ball | vidd: what kind of disc are you trying to use? | 05:08 |
| vidd | this is the line from fstab: | 05:08 |
| ball | DVD-Video? | 05:08 |
| vidd | /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0 | 05:08 |
| vidd | any disk...none will load from inside linux | 05:09 |
| ball | vidd: what mount command are you using? | 05:09 |
| vidd | b4 i changed the hardware, i didnt need to run any mount commands | 05:10 |
| vidd | the disk would be auto-detected by my file manager | 05:10 |
| ball | vidd: what kind of discs? | 05:11 |
| vidd | cd, cdrw would auto load on old hardware....nothing loads on new hardware | 05:11 |
| ball | you've tried DVD-ROMs? | 05:12 |
| vidd | right now i put the install disk that i know the drive can read because it booted | 05:12 |
| ball | Perhaps Linux just hates it. | 05:13 |
| vidd | the old hardware could not read dvd's | 05:13 |
| ball | Yes, you said that already | 05:13 |
| vidd | so i need to know how to tell linux "the hardware has changed" | 05:13 |
| ball | vidd: I doubt that | 05:13 |
| ball | Linux probably doesn't care. | 05:14 |
| ball | ...especially with something as standard as an optical drive | 05:14 |
| vidd | it obviously DOES care, otherwise the disk would have loaded | 05:14 |
| ball | vidd: okay, if that's what you want to believe. | 05:15 |
| * ball shrugs | 05:15 | |
| vidd | i put the old drive back in and it worked | 05:17 |

| _Aldur | Is nvidia drviver and xubuntu 8.10 still a problem? | 15:06 |
| vinnl | _Aldur, I believe if you use an old video card then the driver isn't available | 15:12 |
| vinnl | _Aldur, I suppose you could try popping in an 8.10 CD and see whether the driver is available through the Hardware Drivers application | 15:12 |
| vinnl | _Aldur, oh, btw, that's Nvidia's official drivers, open source drivers *are* available but they don't support e.g. compositing, so you won't be able to run Compiz with that | 15:13 |
| _Aldur | thanks vinnl! | 15:15 |

| grandmaneedshelp | Hi! I am in the proces of setting up xubuntu for my eighty year old grandmother... I need to simplify the system as much as possible, a long with locking it down settings wise | 23:09 |
| grandmaneedshelp | I am used to gnome, not xfce4, is there a way to lock the panels? | 23:10 |

| Odd-rationale | grandmaneedshelp: take a look at sabayon ^ | 23:19 |
| Odd-rationale | it is for gnome.. | 23:19 |
| grandmaneedshelp | why? sabayon is like gentoo minus the constant compiling afaik? | 23:20 |
| grandmaneedshelp | oh it's an application? | 23:20 |
| Odd-rationale | no... not sabayon the distro... sabayon the gnome User profiles maintainance | 23:20 |
