| User746 | hello | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| tkooger | I have a xubuntu problem | 00:22 |
| tkooger | lol :P | 00:22 |
| tkooger | I have installed it on my old clam mac laptop | 00:23 |
| tkooger | and when I try to launch any programs they pop up then close | 00:23 |
| tkooger | anyone have any experiance with xubuntu on mac? | 00:24 |
| mprice | try opening up the application in the terminal it is probably segfaulting | 00:24 |
| tkooger | can't even get the termin l up it closes right after it is finished loading | 00:25 |
| mprice | which version of xubuntu? | 00:25 |
| tkooger | would be the most recent ppc version | 00:25 |
| tkooger | so 8.10 | 00:26 |
| tkooger | also the icons on my desktop keep dissapearing | 00:29 |
| mprice | hmmm...... that is very messed up | 00:29 |
| tkooger | seems like the only window that I can get to work is the setings manager so that I can keep telling xfce to manage my desktop then my icons come back | 00:30 |
| mprice | here is a bug filed about it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/297842 | 00:31 |
| mprice | fixes here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=982270 and here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=977120 | 00:32 |
| mprice | and here: http://www.ppclinux.co.uk/wiki/maclin/Xubuntu_Thunar_file_manager_just_exits | 00:33 |

| tkooger | has that fix been posted in the offical ubuntu intrepid-updates? | 00:59 |
| SML1226 | Hi what's the best way to save my stuff from windows? Dad and sister are using a pc loaded with viruses and I need to back some stuff up before the restore. What should I do? | 01:02 |
| mprice | tkooger, that I don't know but I assume its fixed in Jaunty | 01:03 |
| tkooger | Jaunty? | 01:04 |
| mprice | 9.04 | 01:04 |
| tkooger | sorry I am a linux vergin | 01:04 |
| tkooger | Ah | 01:04 |
| mprice | next version of Ubuntu coming out | 01:04 |
| tkooger | whens the release? | 01:04 |
| SML1226 | I mean should I just move files or make a total backup and copy over the ones I want? I don't want to lose ones I need by forgetting the backup and then restoring it. | 01:05 |
| tkooger | nvm I will look it up | 01:05 |
| mprice | April 23 | 01:05 |
| tkooger | Thanks. | 01:05 |
| mprice | Well SML1226 I would just backup the important stuff but I would also make sure that anything you backup gets scanned for virus's before you reload it after restoring | 01:07 |
| mprice | that way you don't reinfect the computer | 01:09 |
| SML1226 | Yeah that was the plan but I am not sure how to go about backing it up. I know that in windows you can create a vhd image and restore parts of that. I don't want to accidentally forget certain files. | 01:09 |
| SML1226 | I also don't know how I'm going to do my drm'd music files after this | 01:10 |
| SML1226 | It would take a lot to burn all of them to have them for good | 01:10 |
| SML1226 | w/o a drm that is | 01:10 |
| mprice | do you have an external harddrive or a spare harddrive? | 01:11 |
| SML1226 | I do but they are really small in comparison | 01:11 |
| SML1226 | they are like half the size | 01:12 |
| SML1226 | nm I remembered that I have a free 70ish GB partition free on a 200GB that would bork | 01:13 |
| SML1226 | work* | 01:13 |
| gorgut | hey guys, i'm having trouble getting networking up in VirtualBox. i get "Failed to initialize Host Interface Networking" Any tips? | 01:13 |
| gorgut | I'm virtualizing XP on Intrepid | 01:13 |
| SML1226 | Weak PSU doesn't always power 2 hdd's though | 01:14 |
| SML1226 | Oh forget it I have an idea. It is going to take forever though! | 01:14 |
| mprice | fresh install of virtualbox, gorgut? | 01:15 |
| gorgut | mprice, pretty recent. | 01:15 |
| mprice | have you dist-upgraded since you installed virtualbox | 01:15 |
| gorgut | mprice, yes. I also have guest additions installed | 01:15 |
| gorgut | mprice, wait.. not dist-upgrade | 01:16 |
| gorgut | mprice, just upgrade. Sorry. | 01:16 |
| SML1226 | I need to burn some CDs, back it all up, restore the entire drive, update windows 50 times, restore the important files, install 10 anti-virus programs and then run them all at once :P | 01:17 |
| mprice | check this out gorgut: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=346185 | 01:18 |
| mprice | or switch to u(k)(x)buntu :) | 01:19 |
| SML1226 | so slow! and anybody use or used to use xp? best anti-virus? On my pc I use AVG but if there is something better tell me | 01:19 |
| bytor4232 | I have to say, I LOVE XFCE 4.6. | 01:19 |
| gorgut | mprice, i'm using 2.0.4 OSE btw... if that helps | 01:20 |
| mprice | did the networking ever work before, gorgut? | 01:21 |
| gorgut | mprice, no | 01:21 |
| mprice | try those steps in that link than gorgut | 01:21 |
| SML1226 | and please don't hate me for coming here to talk windows, sorta. I just know linux is an easy (easier) way to back this stuff up. | 01:22 |
| mprice | no big deal SML1226 | 01:22 |
| gorgut | mprice, ok. i apparently don't have 'brctl' installed and package search shows nothing like that. any ideas? | 01:30 |
| mprice | install the bridge-utils package, gorgut | 01:33 |
| gorgut | mprice, now, is this just to bridge to ethernet interfaces, because Im using a wireless interface? | 01:33 |
| mprice | I don't honestly know, gorgut | 01:37 |
| gorgut | mprice, ok.. just plugging wlan0 in instead of eth0 | 01:37 |
| mprice | that should work | 01:37 |
| gorgut | mprice, appears to work so far, i'm just not sure about this IP address in this foum | 01:38 |
| gorgut | obviously, the one I use won't be the same, but I just wonder if that's any random, unused IP on the LAN or what? | 01:38 |
| mprice | I believe so | 01:39 |

| the_engineer | can anyone help me clean the 'session autostart' in XFCE on Xubuntu? | 03:44 |
| Mood | it's what happens when you combine a computer + irc+ emo :-s | 03:44 |
| the_engineer | I've been troubleshooting an autostart problem for a bit and I think this is my problem | 03:44 |
| Mood | computer + irc + emo = sarcasm | 03:44 |
| the_engineer | I found this tidbit here http://paste.ubuntu.com/145242/ but I can't find anything in Desktop/autostart | 03:45 |
| the_engineer | or can anyone tell me wheter there are any system-critical applications that might be listed in autostart that I definitely should NOT uncheck? | 03:50 |
| the_engineer | and by that I mean in "Autostarted apps" or "xfce4-autostart-editor | 03:51 |
| Drew3 | Hi all, I did not leave well enough alone, ooops. What packages are needed to make a net connection auto-connect, I was working very well and I screwed it up. | 05:29 |
| Drew3 | I intend to uninstall and re-install the packages involved, can anyone name a few or a group. | 05:31 |
| J_Litewski | ok, i got a weird question | 06:00 |
| J_Litewski | i need to make a acpi event shell script | 06:00 |
| J_Litewski | since there is no Dell acpi event for the volume buttons | 06:02 |
| TheSheep | volume is not handled by acpi | 06:23 |
| TheSheep | just set your keyboard layout properly, the media buttons are bound to apropriate commands already | 06:24 |
| J_Litewski | on the Dell Inspiron 1000 it is | 06:26 |
| J_Litewski | it's an Fn+F* combo | 06:27 |
| J_Litewski | the brightness buttons work now after i downloaded the driver for it, but the volume button refuse to work | 06:29 |
| J_Litewski | i also tested the brightness commands found in /etc/acpi/ and they dim and brighten my screen | 06:31 |

| nikolam | can I mount ext4 partition with Hardy? | 09:35 |
| TheSheep | no | 09:35 |
| TheSheep | I mean, you can, if it doesn't use extends | 09:35 |
| TheSheep | it's backward-compatible with ext3 | 09:36 |
| nikolam | I use hardy. It seem that ext4 is not recognized | 09:38 |
| nikolam | i tried to mount it as if it is ext3 or ext2 . | 09:38 |
| nikolam | I have testing jaunty on ext4 | 09:39 |
| nikolam | maybe I should ask on ubuntu+1, since ext4 is for testing, anyway | 09:39 |
| chewit | Hardy doesn't support ext4, it uses an older kernel | 09:52 |
| Slonkie | Anybody knows how to start the calculator from terminal? | 09:54 |
| Slonkie | (not xcalc) | 09:54 |
| Roonux | Slonkie: gcalctool | 09:58 |
| TheSheep | Slonkie: bc | 09:58 |
| Roonux | dpkg -l | grep calculator ;p | 09:59 |
| Slonkie | thanks Roonux ! | 10:00 |
| Slonkie | one more.. I've got a dead icon in my multimedia cat. i tried sudo apt-get autoremove exaile | 10:02 |
| Slonkie | but the icon is still there.. then i tried /usr/share/applications but there's no exaile icon in there either | 10:03 |
| chewit | Slonkie, i noticed exaile. i think it installed itself after i did some updates on satuday | 10:07 |
| chewit | but the icon disappeared for me when i removed it. | 10:08 |
| Slonkie | :-/ | 10:08 |
| chewit | could log in and log back out | 10:08 |
| chewit | to refresh the menu | 10:08 |
| Slonkie | This one diden't add itself. i installed it a lil' back. but now it wont go away :P | 10:08 |
| Slonkie | i even tried reinstalling exaile and removing. diden't work either. | 10:09 |
| Slonkie | WHat application do you guys use to transfer music to your ipod? | 10:32 |
| ablomen | Slonkie, rhythmbox | 10:33 |
| ablomen | it can do basic stuff like transfering music to/from your ipod | 10:34 |
| Slonkie | Cool | 10:34 |
| Slonkie | stupid apple! making it sooo difficult | 10:35 |
| ablomen | for more extensive stuff you might want to try gtkpod, its a lousy interface but pretty advanced | 10:35 |
| Slonkie | No i only need to transfer music so i guess rhythmbox will do just fine | 10:35 |
| ablomen | ok :) | 10:35 |
| Slonkie | Thanks | 10:35 |
| ablomen | yw | 10:35 |
| gabkdlly | Slonkie: you might try Rockbox , it is an alternative operating system for your mp3 player | 10:41 |
| gabkdlly | Slonkie: I can't promise that it will run on your model, though. You will have to check their homepage | 10:41 |
| gabkdlly | Slonkie: http://www.rockbox.org/ | 10:42 |
| Slonkie | I don't know if i dare trying such :P | 10:43 |
| Roonux | q! | 11:03 |
| Roonux | hum :p | 11:03 |
| Slonkie | What application would you recommend to compile .tex documents to .pdf? | 12:18 |
| chewit | OO.org | 12:19 |
| chewit | it does a good job at converting text files to pdf | 12:19 |
| G-Bleezy | Is Xubuntu installed on Ext3 by default? | 12:25 |
| G-Bleezy | or can you make it install on Ext3? | 12:25 |
| === keffie_jayx is now known as effie_jayx | ||
| CloseYetFar | you can select the file system on install | 12:45 |
| CloseYetFar | yea you can use ext3 its what I would recommend | 12:45 |
| Pres-Gas | Hey, all. | 13:25 |
| gabkdlly | Slonkie: if you install texlive-base-bin you will have a command line tool called pdflatex that does what you wish (compile .tex files to PDF) | 13:26 |
| vinnl | Hey | 13:26 |
| gabkdlly | Pres-Gas: hi | 13:26 |
| Slonkie | Thanks, gabkdlly ! | 13:27 |
| Pres-Gas | I am trying to figure out if 9.04 will offer the encrypted home in the regular installer this time or do we still need to burn the alternative install iso? | 13:28 |
| Pres-Gas | Not immediately finding it in a search | 13:28 |
| vinnl | I'm *thinking* you'll need Alternate, not sure though | 13:28 |
| Pres-Gas | I will still look and report back here | 13:28 |
| vinnl | Pres-Gas, http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2009/02/jaunty-encrypted-home-directories.html | 13:30 |
| Pres-Gas | Alright, dustin's page was my next target 'cause he was talking about this the most | 13:31 |
| vinnl | Heh, it turned up in a Google search for me :P | 13:31 |
| * Pres-Gas drinks more coffee to get his google-foo on | 13:33 | |
| Pres-Gas | vinnl, what were your search terms? | 13:33 |
| vinnl | Pres-Gas, ubuntu jaunty encrypted home directory | 13:33 |
| vinnl | My Google-fu rocks :P | 13:33 |
| Pres-Gas | I think my beef is the whole code names...I tend to just use version numbers | 13:34 |
| vinnl | Ah | 13:34 |
| Pres-Gas | I guess I will have to suck it up and use em | 13:35 |
| vinnl | Yeah well, in helping people I tend to use version numbers since they're less scary or something (or at least reflect a chronological order at first sight), when I'm looking for something related to developers I use codenames since they do :) | 13:36 |
| Pres-Gas | When I was an Apple tech, I refused to use their codenames too... | 13:37 |
| vinnl | Yeah well, with Apple you can afford it considering their target audience | 13:38 |
| Pres-Gas | You also had sub version numbers and security updates, whereas linux just patches as things pop up and I do like that better. | 13:39 |
| vinnl | Yeah well, we do have "8.04.1 LTS" :P | 13:39 |
| Pres-Gas | true, true | 13:40 |
| knome | and we have mysql-server5.1.30really5.0.75-0ubuntu10 | 13:40 |
| vinnl | ^.^ | 13:41 |
| Ruadh | Hi | 14:53 |
| Pres-Gas | Hellom Ruadh | 15:03 |

| Ruadh | Nooo then | 15:09 |
| Ruadh | Got some updates to deal with. later | 15:10 |
| Slonkie | anybody know how to use pdflatex? | 15:40 |
| bytor4232 | Slonkie, I've never heard of it. | 15:47 |
| bytor4232 | Can I ask questions about Jaunty in here? | 15:51 |
| bytor4232 | I'm having two issues with Xubuntu Jaunty Beta. For one, the mixer applet races at times. I have to kill it and add it to the panel again. The second thing, I'm getting a segfault when I try to load xfmedia. | 15:53 |
| Slonkie | bytor4232 u know any other application to make .tex -> pdf ? | 16:01 |
| bytor4232 | Slonkie, Not sure. Its been a while since I played with TEX | 16:03 |
| Slor | slonkie - can't you go .tex -> .ps, and then use ps2pdf from there? | 16:08 |
| Myrtti | Slonkie: what part are you having troubles with? | 16:09 |
| Slonkie | Making .tex to .pdf | 16:09 |
| Slonkie | Slor i know it's possible to make .tex -> pdf i don't wanna make it harder for myself | 16:09 |
| Slor | so what issue exactly are you having with pdflatex? | 16:11 |
| Slonkie | I don't know how to use it | 16:12 |
| Slonkie | And the guy who recommended it left | 16:15 |
| Slor | heh. I assume you already have it installed? | 16:15 |
| Slonkie | yep | 16:15 |
| Slor | and you tried the simple "pdflatex whatever.tex"? | 16:16 |
| Slonkie | seems like my .tex is messed up | 16:21 |
| Slonkie | but pdflatex did something. not sure what tho :D | 16:21 |
| Myrtti | the .out -log should tell you what's wrong | 16:21 |
| Slor | been FOREVER since I used latex. :) | 16:22 |
| Myrtti | texmaker is a nice app for editing and fiddling with tex if you need some debugging etc | 16:22 |
| Slonkie | \relax it says | 16:22 |
| * Myrtti uses her pink emacs with auctex | 16:22 | |
| * knome pukes | 16:22 | |
| * Slor still doesn't touch emacs | 16:23 | |
| Myrtti | gedit has usable latex plugins if you don't mind installing it | 16:23 |
| TheSheep | and then also installing the plugins | 16:23 |
| Myrtti | but in general, the .out-log should be a good starting point | 16:23 |
| TheSheep | and a sane non-fruit-salad color theme | 16:23 |
| Slonkie | I just tried exporting a math assignment of mine from maple to .tex. but it's messed up | 16:23 |
| Slonkie | i wonder if it possible to make .mw -> .pdf ? | 16:23 |
| Myrtti | anihoo, time for shower --> | 16:25 |
| bytor4232 | Hm. I haven't been able to get the xfce4-mixer to race on the CPU again. Wierd. | 16:35 |
| bytor4232 | Still can't get xfmedia to open. | 16:35 |
| Myrtti | and yeah, my opinion is a bit biased towards emacs after fiddling with LaTeX more or less for a year | 16:45 |
| disassembler | how can i clear my session cache? i forget the command. | 17:24 |

| Slonkie | Shouldn't gigolo be build in, in 9.04? | 17:45 |
| cody-somerville | Slonkie, whats your question? | 17:49 |
| Slonkie | if it's build in or not | 17:50 |
| Slonkie | nvm | 17:51 |
| Slonkie | i found it.. stupid me | 17:51 |
| rocko | why does xfce leave blocks of white when moving images around in gimp? | 17:52 |
| rocko | it doesn't happen in gnome | 17:53 |
| rocko | why does xfce have this problem? | 17:53 |
| rocko | I have left xfce for this reason | 17:53 |
| rocko | it is really annoying | 17:53 |
| rocko | should I reinstall the update manager ? | 17:56 |
| rocko | it does not work any more :( | 17:56 |
| rocko | I have to use apt to update | 17:56 |
| rocko | but it still tells me when I need to update | 17:56 |
| rocko | so I have to use apt once it says there is an update :( | 17:56 |
| mweichert | hello. Can someone tell me how I can enable compiz effects on Xfce? | 18:03 |
| mweichert | I've enabled the Xfvm4 compositor extention... it's nice, but I'd like to enable effects like cube and task switcher | 18:04 |
| charlie-tca | !compiz | 18:07 |

| J_Litewski | when will a script in cron.daily run? | 18:14 |
| zoredache | about 6:45am | 18:15 |
| zoredache | check your /etc/crontab, they are called from there | 18:16 |
| J_Litewski | zoredache, i don't have a working crontab | 18:22 |
| J_Litewski | atm anyway | 18:22 |
| zoredache | if /etc/crontab isn't working then nothing in /etc/cron.d will get run | 18:22 |
| J_Litewski | so if i want to run something in /etc/cron.daily/, it has to be in the crontab? | 18:24 |
| zoredache | no | 18:25 |
| J_Litewski | ok | 18:26 |
| zoredache | http://pastebin.com/f24e869d2 | 18:26 |
| zoredache | that is a standard /etc/crontab. The 25 6 * * * line does the command 'run-parts /etc/cron.dailly' | 18:27 |
| J_Litewski | ok | 18:27 |
| zoredache | so what happened to your crontab? Why isn't it working? | 18:27 |
| J_Litewski | i made a tiny self-updating shell script yesterday and placed it in cron.daily | 18:28 |
| J_Litewski | and now i don't know when or how it'll run | 18:29 |
| J_Litewski | basically, the script is #! /bin/bash/ with sudo apt-get update/upgrade/autoremove/autoclean with the -y option | 18:31 |
| Slonkie | Is it possible to make an script that automaticly logs into a server trough ssh? | 18:31 |
| zoredache | that probably isn't really a good idea, but if you really wanted to do that, there are already things that do that | 18:31 |
| zoredache | see apticron | 18:31 |
| zoredache | Slonkie: usually if you want automatic ssh logins, then you setup ssh keys | 18:32 |
| zoredache | Slonkie: do a search for 'ssh key based authentication' you'll see lots of useful tutorials | 18:32 |
| gorgut | Slonkie, I use ssh-installkeys for stuff like that | 18:34 |
| Slonkie | I'm not sure if that works when i'm using ssh as proxy? | 18:34 |
| zoredache | what do you mean ssh as a proxy? Are you talking about port forwarding? Key-based authentication should work almost everywhere | 18:40 |
| Slonkie | an ssh tunnel as proxy zoredache | 18:46 |
| Slonkie | ssh tunnel works as socks 5 proxy :) | 18:46 |
| zoredache | how are you creating your tunnel? Are you running a script each time you login? You might also want to look at installing gstm and thing autostarting gstm | 18:47 |
| zoredache | !info gstm | 18:48 |

| Slonkie | i just log into my server like this: ssh -D <port> -C user@ip | 18:48 |
| J_Litewski | how do you rebuild the crontab? | 18:53 |
| zoredache | what do you mean rebuild it? | 18:53 |
| J_Litewski | restore the orignal | 18:53 |
| bytor4232 | J_Litewski, I believe the original is empty. I could be wrong. | 18:54 |
| zoredache | I posted mine earlier... you could update yours so it is the same as that. I haven't changed mine from the default | 18:54 |
| zoredache | http://pastebin.com/f24e869d2 | 18:55 |
| J_Litewski | ty zoredache | 18:56 |
| bytor4232 | woot! The Jaunty netboot installer works today. Thats always a good sign ;) | 18:56 |
| J_Litewski | bytor4232, could you test something for me? | 18:59 |
| J_Litewski | could you open a terminal, type xfce4-mixer, then close the mixer using the X, not the close button? | 19:00 |
| bytor4232 | J_Litewski, what do you mean? | 19:01 |
| bytor4232 | I'm on 8.10 right this second. | 19:02 |
| J_Litewski | i want to see if someone other than me is getting a gtk-CRITICAL error in the terminal when you close the mixer using the close button, not the quit button | 19:02 |
| fortunev | Mood: can you search for a pkg for me? | 19:10 |
| Mood | what's up? | 19:10 |
| Mood | fortunev: you're not on linux right now? | 19:10 |
| fortunev | I am via freeshells, Not my own xubuntu box | 19:11 |
| Mood | ah | 19:11 |
| Mood | what pkg? | 19:11 |
| fortunev | the pkg is tovid | 19:11 |
| vinnl | fortunev, packages.ubuntu.com :) | 19:11 |
| fortunev | that will show me all ubuntu pkgs? | 19:12 |
| Mood | fortunev: yeah ^ :-) but here you go: tovid - tools for creating video DVDs, VCDs, and SVCD | 19:12 |
| vinnl | You can search for packages in the repo there :) | 19:12 |
| vinnl | !info tovid | 19:12 |

| tim__ | hii | 19:13 |
| vinnl | !hi | 19:13 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! | 19:13 |
| tim__ | yay! | 19:13 |
| tim__ | i need some help if its not a bother | 19:13 |
| vinnl | !ask | 19:13 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 19:13 |
| vinnl | :) | 19:13 |
| J_Litewski | whats a CIDSupplement? | 19:14 |
| tim__ | I'm having issues with blender and wings3d, the entire gui is turned blue! i think it might be a driver issue. I'm trying to install the proprietary driver in hopes that it will fix it. I downloaded linux-restricted-modules but it won't launch. What should I do? | 19:15 |
| tim__ | I have an ibook g4 with a ati radeon mobility 9200 | 19:16 |
| vinnl | That is odd... Do you see any output on the terminal? | 19:16 |
| tim__ | sorry but i'm not too experienced, how would i check that? | 19:17 |
| J_Litewski | brb, system restart | 19:17 |
| vinnl | tim__, open a terminal window (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), then type "blender" | 19:17 |
| vinnl | (Also, you can't "launch" linux-restricted-modules... You install restricted drivers through Applications->System->Hardware Drivers) | 19:18 |
| tim__ | Compiled with Python version 2.6.1+.Checking for installed Python... got it! | 19:18 |
| vinnl | No errors whatsoever? | 19:18 |
| tim__ | no | 19:19 |
| vinnl | :S | 19:19 |
| tim__ | same in wings3d | 19:19 |
| tim__ | it all works great, its just all blue. | 19:19 |
| fortunev | tim is blender the only appt thats all blue? | 19:20 |
| vinnl | Wings3D as well, apparently | 19:20 |
| vinnl | I don't know what they have in commong | 19:20 |
| tim__ | yeah i tried wings in search of an alternative, but only to find the same problem | 19:21 |
| tim__ | i'm using 9.04 btw | 19:22 |
| fortunev | my unprofessional advice is to install another appt that uses the 3d portion of your vid card like warzone. If that is also all blue I would guess something is up with your vid card | 19:22 |
| vinnl | Also, since it *is* an unstable release, it might be a bug, in which case you should report it | 19:23 |
| vinnl | !bugs | 19:23 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 19:23 |
| tim__ | ok | 19:23 |
| J_Litewski | how would i reinstall the xfce4-panel via the terminal? | 19:23 |
| tim__ | i will do that | 19:23 |
| charlie-tca | !panel | 19:23 |
| ubottu | Did you panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/ | 19:23 |
| charlie-tca | same command in a terminal | 19:23 |
| vinnl | charlie-tca, ah, there's an ubottu entry, great :) | 19:23 |
| vinnl | There was something I'd have liked to see in there this afternoon... | 19:24 |
| J_Litewski | my panels work, it's just i need to restart them to get the Applications button | 19:24 |
| charlie-tca | knome knows how to get them in, maybe zoredache too | 19:24 |
| vinnl | Only I can't find what it was... | 19:24 |
| knome | ? | 19:25 |
| tim__ | anyone using an intuos4 yet? | 19:26 |
| vinnl | J_Litewski, I suppose killall xfce4-panel && xfce4-panel | 19:26 |
| J_Litewski | vinnl, thats what i've been doing | 19:26 |
| J_Litewski | no luck | 19:26 |
| vinnl | Strange... | 19:26 |
| J_Litewski | should i bite the bullet and remove my config file | 19:27 |
| * vinnl off to play Hedgwars | 19:27 | |
| vinnl | J_Litewski, you can press Ctrl+Alt+Esc and click on the panel | 19:27 |
| charlie-tca | J_Litewski: just add the XFCE Menu through 'add to panel' | 19:27 |
| charlie-tca | Then change the name in Properties to Applications | 19:28 |
| J_Litewski | well, i think i fixed it | 19:30 |
| J_Litewski | hopefully | 19:30 |
| J_Litewski | i just need to configure everything back to what it was | 19:31 |
| fortunev | q | 19:58 |
| Slonkie | lol | 19:59 |
| J_Litewski | is a DeprecationWarning bug worthy? | 20:00 |
| charlie-tca | J_Litewski: did you update and restart the system? | 20:01 |
