pc-illiteratehello everyone12:59
pc-illiterateok, hello anyone13:00
pc-illiteratelol13:00
Myrttipc-illiterate: did you have a question or...?13:06
hatake_kakashiI've got an issue with the screensaver. I tried the leave message button, well I left a test message but now I unlock the screensaver. I am now left with a black screen with a small window showing time the message was left and the message. The x button is greyed out and I can't close it, I eventually got the mouse cursor back but it only stays on the message box window13:06
pc-illiteratei dont think so. im checking the faq13:06
hatake_kakashilol nm I think its working agian13:08
hatake_kakashiagain*13:08
hatake_kakashianyone noticing a massive memory usage? I think its a memory leak or something like that.. the machine has been running for a day and 5 hours with xfce desktop along with a few apps (one ftpd) and it seems like it has gone from around 300MB to now 770MB14:30
charlie-tcahatake_kakashi: what panel applets do you have installed?14:31
hatake_kakashicharlie-tca, standard ones, I haven't touched any panel applets to be honest14:31
charlie-tcaCould be something else then. It has been reported with xfce4-mixer with non-default applets14:32
charlie-tcaThere are a couple of other cases.14:32
hatake_kakashirunning htop as super user and sorted the list by mem% it shows gvfsd using up 412M resident memory14:33
hatake_kakashiheh google shows some interesting info about gvfsd using up alot14:34
charlie-tcagvfsd covers too much territory.14:35
charlie-tcaIf it is reproducible, you can report a bug about it. Was this a Xubuntu install or did you add xubuntu to Ubuntu?14:36
hatake_kakashixubuntu install and it seems like to be gvfsd itself14:37
hatake_kakashiwonder if I could just simply kill this daemon instead14:37
charlie-tcaYou should report the bug on it. I'll try to reproduce it myself.14:37
charlie-tcaI donĀ“t know what killing it will do.14:38
hatake_kakashiI have 3 terminals running, pureadmin (pureftpd frontend), filemanager and system monitor running, those are pretty much it14:39
hatake_kakashiI checked the package manager and I can see the version installed seems older than this site I was just reading from whereby someone reported a bug with gvfsd-http14:41
hatake_kakashihttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/22561514:41
charlie-tcafixed in jaunty. I also see one where audio files cause it.14:47
charlie-tcahttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/31609314:47
hatake_kakashiok I've enabled extra repositories and grabbed the latest available version without having to add another source.. its now running *ubuntu3 instead of *ubuntu2, htop reports ~360MB mem usage with gvfsd no longer ranking as the top one.. I'll run it for a few days and see how I go14:47
charlie-tcathanks for letting us know14:48
hatake_kakashinw14:48
hatake_kakashibtw I have also connected a portable usb hard drive (imation 320gb apollo 2.5"), the fs is ntfs and its mounted via fuseblk (with rw mode automagically set) dunno if that contributes to the issue but I suppose time will tell soon enough :)14:49
hatake_kakashiit was connected roughly 15 hours ago14:49
hatake_kakashimaybe more14:50
charlie-tcaI don't know, but not in the reports I see.14:50
hatake_kakashiyeah I was browsing inside the directory where gvfsd is placed and there seems to be heaps of files or should I say binaries :)14:50
charlie-tcathat's normal though14:51
hatake_kakashi*nods* was thinking maybe one of those bins may have a handle one the portable usb (of course I could verify with lsof) but heck :)14:52

mcpasdgarrettHi all, I am having to type xset mouse 1 1 into a teminal after I login each time to make my remote sessions work the way I need them to.  Is there any way to automate this?15:17
ablomenmcpasdgarrett, check out autostarted apps in the settings manager15:18
mcpasdgarrettalbomen: I tried in there, but it didn't seem to work.  Do I need to create a bash script or can I just type "xset mouse 1 1" in as the command?15:19
ablomenafaik that should work15:22
mcpasdgarrettNope, neither way does it seem to work.  Any other ideas?15:23
mcpasdgarrettI'm not really sure what the xset mouse command does, I just was told from our IP-KVM support that it is needed for the mouse to properly sync.  Is it something that can be put in my xorg.conf file?15:25
ablomenhttp://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/How_to_set_mouse_speed_in_X << last item might help15:28

Winnipeg_GuyHi.. I'm looking for a lightweight music player / manager that fits in well with xfce. So far, my top choice is exhaile, but I'm wondering if there is something a little lighter out there that would do what I need. All I need is support for playlists and ipod syncing. Any ideas?16:47
=== Vivantalingvo is now known as rocko
charlie-tcaListen Music Player is the default in Jaunty16:50
Winnipeg_Guycharlie-tca: Hadn't heard of that one. I'll check it out.16:51
charlie-tcaI don't know if it can do the ipod sync, but it does play16:51
Winnipeg_Guylisten pulls in a lot of gnome-centric stuff.16:55
lear123456running xubunutu 8.10  It is trying to update libc6 but can't find it on the repositories.  Any suggestions?  I need to show that my computer is clean and up to date and this is preventing that.17:58
charlie-tcapart of glibc source package17:59
lear123456yes, it is listing three updates for it.  libc6, libc6-dev, libc6-i686.  When I click "update" it responds :"W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6-dev_2.8~20080505-0ubuntu8_i386.deb18:02
lear123456  404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.31 80]18:02
lear123456W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.8~20080505-0ubuntu8_i386.deb18:02
lear123456  404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.31 80]18:02
lear123456"18:02
lear123456The other 28 updates worked fine.18:02
charlie-tcaI don't know what to say. looking at http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/ it is correct. they do not exist18:06
charlie-tcaPerhaps restart and try another update from command line18:07
lear123456I'll try that.  Is there anyway to reset update manager so it quits looking for them or is this something beyond my control here?18:08
charlie-tcaI don't really know. I normally use "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" to run the updates instead of update manager.18:09
charlie-tcaIt seems to work better for me.18:09
charlie-tcaUpdate Manager refuses to update too many times18:09
lear123456Thank you for your help.  Have a good day!18:09
charlie-tcaYou are welcome18:09
basajaunhi all18:11
zoredache!hi18:14
ubottuHi! Welcome to #xubuntu!18:14
bedmunds_hi basajaun18:29
bedmunds_I love Windows Updates + Grub :) ............Windows Automatically updated the other night, reboots.........and I have xubuntu as my default OS, so in a way..........windows forced me to use linux.18:31
* charlie-tca thinks windows is trying to tell you something18:32
bedmunds_yeah.........I'm actually three applications away from dropping windows for good.18:32
n2diyI think the 8.04 intel iso has a bug? I can't burn a good iso, and neither can my neighbor. I don't have any trouble burning the alt cd.18:37
charlie-tcaWhat is the specific url and name?18:38
n2diyso you want to know the server too?18:39
charlie-tcaIt could be the mirror you are downloading from18:39
n2diyok, hang on a sec.18:39
charlie-tcaI want to know what the actual name of the image is18:39
basajauncharlie-tca: I have solved the compositing problem18:44
charlie-tcaWhat was the answer?18:44
basajaunkillall xfwm4; sleep 1; xfwm4 --compositor=on --replace &18:45
n2diycharle-tca, Ok, when I first did the DL, I was asked to select a mirror, and I used the one at MIT, now, the mirror is selected for me, http://mirror.anl.gov. But I'm sure my original DL came from the MIT mirror.18:45
charlie-tcaThanks, basajaun18:45
charlie-tcan2diy: what was the file name?18:45
charlie-tca8.04 intel leaves me too many to pick from18:45
basajaunwelcome charlie-tca  and many thanks for assisting me18:46
n2diyxubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso18:46
charlie-tcaOkay, I will download it from MIT and try it.18:46
n2diyRR18:46
MyrttiI thought setting the compositor on can be done in mcs18:47
charlie-tcaNot after you lose the tab in window manager tweaks18:47
basajauncorrect18:50
basajaunI have spoken to people on the compiz channel and they were surprised the test command are not suppose to be permanebt but the command --replace might not be implemented in xubnutu18:52
basajaunxubuntu sorry18:52
charlie-tcaThat could well be18:52
basajaunanyway all is well18:53
charlie-tcabut if it is up to the distribution to implement, they should not have it in there in the first place18:53
charlie-tcain my humble opinion18:54
basajaunyes I do agree18:54
basajaunbye charlie-tca19:11
basajaunbye Myrtti19:11
basajaunthanks19:11
basajaunbye all19:11
