| carlis | yes, I have installed xubuntu completely and don`t have connection to the wifi | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| vidd | did you install from the alt cd or mini iso instead of the live cd like i told you would fix all this? | 00:01 |
| Balrog_ | vidd: nothing prints even with e2ps | 00:01 |
| vidd | Balrog_, you need to restart cups | 00:02 |
| carlis | I have installed it fro usb stick | 00:02 |
| vidd | carlis, the installer would have had you set up your keyboard during the install | 00:03 |
| carlis | I already fixed the keyboard | 00:04 |
| carlis | and now I want to fix the connection to internet | 00:04 |
| vidd | are you near the desktop? | 00:05 |
| carlis | The 2 pcs show me a white x | 00:05 |
| carlis | yes | 00:05 |
| carlis | I am near the desktop | 00:05 |
| vidd | right-click and choose :edit connection" | 00:06 |
| carlis | ok | 00:06 |
| carlis | and then ? | 00:06 |
| vidd | click the wifi tab | 00:06 |
| carlis | ok | 00:06 |
| Balrog_ | vidd: restarted cups and nothing happend after trying to print | 00:07 |
| vidd | what is there? | 00:07 |
| carlis | nothing | 00:07 |
| vidd | Balrog_, then im out of ideas | 00:07 |
| carlis | it`s empty | 00:07 |
| vidd | carlis, hit "add" | 00:07 |
| carlis | ok | 00:07 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: evince sucks for printing. Honnestly | 00:07 |
| SiDi | last time i tried to print from evince, the images on my pdf were going all black | 00:08 |
| Balrog_ | SiDi: should I use xpdf? All I want to do is print PDF files | 00:08 |
| SiDi | you can try it, yeh | 00:08 |
| carlis | vidd ?? | 00:09 |
| carlis | and then n? | 00:09 |
| carlis | vidd and then ? | 00:09 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: also a reason why it wouldnt _try_ to print is that its specifically designed for gnome | 00:10 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: it might want to contact some gnome daemon in order to launch the print, and that'd explain why it doesn't answer | 00:10 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: do you have libgnomecups1.0-1 installed ? | 00:11 |
| Balrog_ | SiDi: yes. | 00:12 |
| SiDi | Run system-config-printer, do you see your printer ? | 00:12 |
| Balrog_ | I can print from Firefox | 00:13 |
| Balrog_ | yes, it's there | 00:13 |
| anzo | hey all, dealing with a ubuntu issue concerning video display on a dell x200 laptop. Wondering if some one would be willing to help? | 00:13 |
| * vidd lost power | 00:13 | |
| anzo | sorry xubuntu* | 00:13 |
| vidd | carlis, you good now with wifi? | 00:14 |
| Balrog_ | SiDi: any ideas? | 00:14 |
| satansaunt | where's the best place for me to find icons? | 00:15 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: no :/ probably a missing gnome daemon required by evince | 00:16 |
| carlis | u said me to hit in the add button and now what do i do ?? | 00:16 |
| Balrog_ | any logs to look at? | 00:16 |
| SiDi | anzo: what graphic card does ithave ? | 00:16 |
| anzo | its an 830MG | 00:16 |
| anzo | intel card... | 00:16 |
| vidd | carlis, enter your wifi info =\ | 00:17 |
| SiDi | and also, is it a network, or a regular laptop ? | 00:17 |
| * vidd would think that was rather obvious | 00:17 | |
| SiDi | anzo: what xubuntu version, then ? Xubuntu 9.04 has a recent version of Xorg, and there are no intel drivers for all cards yet. | 00:17 |
| SiDi | anzo: i meant a netbook * not a network :P | 00:17 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: aybe .xsession-errors | 00:17 |
| anzo | i had black screens with 9.04 so i went back to 8.10 | 00:17 |
| carlis | I have to enter ssid. how do i get it vidd ?? | 00:18 |
| anzo | its not a net book its to old its an pentium III at 800mhz | 00:18 |
| vidd | carlis, are you really this way????? | 00:18 |
| SiDi | anzo the problem is newest distros probably dont ship the driver on the CD anymore | 00:18 |
| vidd | you cantr remember something i told you less the 4 hours ago? | 00:19 |
| SiDi | anzo: i can't help you on this, though, i really dont know much about intel cards :/ | 00:19 |
| anzo | ok how do i go about getting driver | 00:19 |
| carlis | This is difficult | 00:19 |
| carlis | I have to enter the ssid and I don`t know it | 00:19 |
| vidd | right-click on you wifi connection in windows, choose "network list" and LOOK AT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 00:19 |
| anzo | cause i have configed xorg to keep cursor but i keep getting artifacting and weird charter blocks | 00:20 |
| vidd | you had to do all this to get wifi to work in windows | 00:20 |
| R1cochet | i just got done w/ upgrade and now wine sub menu has disappeared | 00:20 |
| carlis | ok | 00:21 |
| vidd | R1cochet, you need to re-install wine maybe? | 00:21 |
| R1cochet | well im running utorrent right now | 00:21 |
| vidd | R1cochet, i dont use wine so im kinda reaching in the blind here =] | 00:22 |
| R1cochet | all good | 00:22 |
| R1cochet | thank you | 00:22 |
| SiDi | anzo: you'll have to play with xorg.conf apparently :/ | 00:22 |
| vidd | carlis, you find out what your ssid is yet? | 00:23 |
| R1cochet | does 9.04 have a menu editor? o cant find it | 00:23 |
| SiDi | R1cochet: it doesnt | 00:23 |
| vidd | R1cochet, i cnt find it either | 00:23 |
| carlis | yes, I have found it | 00:23 |
| vidd | SiDi, YET ANOTHER BASIC FUNCTION DOWN THE DRAIN!!!! | 00:23 |
| R1cochet | is there one out there? | 00:24 |
| vidd | carlis, so ya good now? | 00:24 |
| SiDi | anzo: google translate this page : http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=309238 | 00:24 |
| SiDi | anzo: this is a post from the french forums with people who tried different xorg options for their intel cards. | 00:24 |
| carlis | no, I have to write bssid now. what do i have to write there ? | 00:25 |
| SiDi | vidd: the menu has been completely rewritten, they didnt have the time for the editor | 00:25 |
| SiDi | carlis: bssid is optional, pass on | 00:25 |
| J_Litewski | what is the best license to publish a programwith? | 00:25 |
| R1cochet | is there a way to get "switch user" back in the log out screen? | 00:25 |
| vidd | SiDi, fortunantly, the old hacked menu warks just fine | 00:26 |
| SiDi | J_Litewski: depends :) i publish under GPL3, unless i really dont care then public domain | 00:26 |
| vidd | R1cochet, you just want EVERYTHING! | 00:26 |
| R1cochet | well yea | 00:26 |
| zerothis | J_Litewski: Any FSF approved license | 00:26 |
| R1cochet | Laughing Out Loud | 00:26 |
| J_Litewski | ah | 00:26 |
| R1cochet | then is there a way to switch user through terminal | 00:26 |
| vidd | J_Litewski, that is not necssesarily tru.... | 00:26 |
| SiDi | J_Litewski: if you really want freedom you may prefer BSD to LGPL, but thats technical sides :P Also, CECILL is compatible with GPL but better for some specific countries' legislation | 00:27 |
| vidd | it all depends on what rights you want to pass along to the "next guy" | 00:27 |
| zerothis | actually, public domain lets people do evil things with your code. its a small risk | 00:27 |
| carlis | vidd ? | 00:27 |
| carlis | what do i do now ?? | 00:27 |
| vidd | you fill in the info, and save | 00:27 |
| vidd | thats it | 00:27 |
| vidd | oh...and enjoy using the internet | 00:28 |
| carlis | I know but what do i have write in bssid ???? | 00:28 |
| Balrog_ | print preview doesn't work either | 00:28 |
| vidd | i distinctly recall you having been told to leave it blank | 00:28 |
| carlis | ok | 00:29 |
| SiDi | Balrog_: throw evince in a trash ben ;P | 00:29 |

| vidd | did you set this up in a language other then your native language? | 00:36 |
| Balrog_ | xpdf won't print either | 00:37 |
| carlis | vidd the ok button is not enable | 00:37 |
| vidd | carlis, you good now? | 00:37 |
| J_Litewski | carlis, is it WPA2-PSK? | 00:38 |

| J_Litewski | vidd, np | 00:40 |
| vidd | carlis, how difficult can it be to answer the man's question? | 00:40 |
| vidd | is it Personal share key or not? | 00:40 |
| carlis | I donpt understand | 00:40 |
| vidd | J_Litewski, my lappy lost power so i have to ssh into my server to run xchat...and the text is god-aweful to read! | 00:41 |
| J_Litewski | is it WPA2 (with a STUN server) or WPA2-PSK (with a password) | 00:41 |
| carlis | it´s WPA & WPA2 Personal | 00:41 |
| vidd | carlis, your wpa personal ....is it shared key or is it password or is it passphrase? | 00:41 |
| vidd | what is your native language....ill google translate everything! | 00:42 |
| carlis | It´s has password. I already wrote it | 00:42 |
| J_Litewski | so it's WPA2-PSK | 00:42 |
| vidd | J_Litewski, i use wap with mac filtering....is there something i dont know about with wpa? | 00:43 |
| vidd | *wep | 00:43 |
| vidd | carlis, on the wireless tab.....which mode did you choose? | 00:44 |
| carlis | ok | 00:44 |
| carlis | what do i do now ?? | 00:44 |
| carlis | Infrastructure | 00:45 |
| vidd | so ssid is entered,, and mode = infrastructure.... | 00:45 |
| anzo | Sidi, sorry about the delay someone needed my comp. The link you set me seems to direct itself towards kubuntu and i am running xubuntu. Does this create config issues? Also they are trying to config much new cards.... | 00:45 |
| vidd | MTU = auto | 00:45 |
| carlis | yes | 00:46 |
| ochosi | anzo, SiDi is long gone | 00:46 |
| ochosi | anzo, well, ok, not *long*, but a while :) | 00:46 |

| carlis | wait please | 00:47 |
| vidd | your wifi security password of course | 00:47 |
| carlis | more thant 8 characters | 00:47 |
| vidd | put a check in the box for "show password" so you can make sure the password is correct | 00:47 |
| carlis | ok | 00:48 |
| carlis | it`s correct | 00:48 |
| vidd | is the password correct? | 00:48 |
| carlis | yes | 00:48 |

| carlis | the ok button is not enable | 00:51 |
| carlis | wait | 00:51 |
| vidd- | then something is missing | 00:51 |
| Mikel | hey guys. I think that I've found a problem. Don't know if it's Xubuntu related or not. | 00:51 |
| J_Litewski | it's Apply | 00:51 |
| Mikel | let's say that I access "vi lala" from the terminal | 00:51 |
| Mikel | I close it with :q , and then I do a stat lala | 00:52 |
| J_Litewski | you need the SSID and the password and thats it | 00:52 |
| Mikel | mi last access time isn't updated | 00:52 |
| Mikel | any ideas? | 00:52 |
| carlis | The ok button wasn``t enalbe because I had information in BSID. I delete the info in BSSID the ok button is enable | 00:53 |

| vidd | !spanish | carlis | 00:59 |
| ubottu | carlis: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 00:59 |
| carlis | I don`t get connection to internet | 00:59 |
| carlis | ok | 01:00 |
| zerothis | no #xubuntu-es? that sucks | 01:00 |
| carlis | I don`t still get connection vidd | 01:00 |
| carlis | what do i do now ? | 01:01 |
| vidd | zerothis, no #xubuntu-es, no free disks, no all kinds of other things | 01:01 |
| vidd | carlis, va #ubuntu-es por favor | 01:01 |
| carlis | I uderstand u vidd | 01:02 |
| carlis | I don`t get connection | 01:02 |
| vidd | can you understand that you are making me very agittated? | 01:02 |
| === awway is now known as lukinfore | ||
| carlis | I don`t understand why I don`t get connection if I did everything u said me and didn`t work why ?? | 01:04 |
| knome | carlis, please ask help in #ubuntu-es as we are unable to help you more. | 01:04 |
| carlis | I don`t get help in #xubuntu-es | 01:08 |
| carlis | vidd what else do i do ? | 01:09 |
| vidd | drop the 'x' | 01:09 |
| vidd | it is #ubuntu-es | 01:09 |
| knome | carlis, also if there is nobody available, you can try searchin the forums or wait to get help later. | 01:10 |
| Wunderbar | okay, is there a solution to to stop xubuntu from forgetting to activate my thinkpad volume buttons? | 01:13 |
| Wunderbar | what I found via google didn't rectify the problem | 01:13 |
| knome | Wunderbar, what do you have to do to get them activated then? | 01:13 |
| vidd | Wunderbar, xubuntu 9.04 killed auto-set volume control keys | 01:14 |
| carlis | vidd I have this message: Wireless network connection to u2k | 01:15 |
| Wunderbar | I have to go to 'sound' then select master | 01:15 |
| carlis | y2k | 01:15 |
| Wunderbar | and it works | 01:15 |
| Wunderbar | are you saying that there is no solution vidd? | 01:15 |
| vidd | Wunderbar, does that "fix"your keys? or just adjust the volume? | 01:15 |
| carlis | vidd the connectio is connected but don`t show me any page | 01:16 |
| Wunderbar | it allows me to adjust the volume | 01:16 |
| Wunderbar | using the keys | 01:16 |
| Wunderbar | until I have to restart, then I have to do the same thing all over again | 01:16 |
| Wunderbar | somewhat of a nuisance | 01:16 |
| vidd | you have more functionality then i do | 01:16 |
| Wunderbar | :( | 01:17 |
| carlis | vidd??? | 01:17 |
| vidd | we need to find the applet used in 8.10 and get it back | 01:17 |
| Wunderbar | what was the reason given for killing the auto set volume keys option? | 01:17 |
| vidd | carlis, i told you....im done trying to help you | 01:18 |
| vidd | Wunderbar, they want the volume app to be pretty | 01:18 |
| Wunderbar | and unusable | 01:18 |
| DarkTan | how do i change the back ground color on my menus? | 01:18 |
| carlis | vidd the white x is not there | 01:18 |
| carlis | what do i do now ? | 01:19 |
| vidd | carlis, you ask someone besides me | 01:19 |
| knome | DarkTan, you need to tweak your gtk theme | 01:19 |
| knome | carlis, which white X? | 01:19 |
| DarkTan | wher do i go for that? | 01:20 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, well, there are several workarounds. like using a script for that. or just setting the keys in the keyboard-shortcut-dialog | 01:20 |
| Wunderbar | I've tried the keyboard shortcut | 01:20 |
| Wunderbar | that definitely doesn't work for me | 01:20 |
| knome | DarkTan, i don't suggest doing it if you have little or no experience on it, it's not that trivial | 01:20 |
| knome | DarkTan, there is themes with dark menu backgrounds | 01:20 |
| DarkTan | I'm using the Xfce-dusk theme, everything is good except for the menus | 01:21 |
| DarkTan | light grey back ground with white fonts | 01:21 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, what do you mean? i mean: be a bit more specific than "didn't work for me" | 01:21 |
| knome | DarkTan, /usr/share/themes/ | 01:21 |
| Wunderbar | okay, it works for that session- but I have to do it all over again when I restart/reboot | 01:22 |
| knome | DarkTan, you should find the theme there | 01:22 |
| DarkTan | okay | 01:22 |
| carlis | when don`t u get connection u have a white x | 01:22 |
| carlis | if u have connection don`t u see a white x | 01:22 |
| carlis | the pc say me I am connected and don`t show me anypage | 01:22 |
| knome | DarkTan, but as i said, it is *not* about just chaging one value. i've been there and it's a relatively big thing. | 01:22 |
| carlis | what do i do now vidd ?? | 01:22 |
| carlis | ok | 01:22 |
| carlis | I have an idea | 01:23 |
| carlis | how do repair a connection in xubuntu ??? | 01:23 |
| DarkTan | knome: well, i don't know much about it, but I'm a fairly good reverse engineer | 01:23 |
| Wunderbar | does anyone know of an icon set that's "high contrast inverse" but smaller? | 01:23 |
| knome | DarkTan, okies. the gtk theming spec is partly also freaky, so expect things that doesn't work as expected :) | 01:23 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, you mean the keyboard shortcuts are getting lost? | 01:24 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, or the mixer-settings? | 01:24 |
| knome | carlis, there is no "repair" in (x)ubuntu | 01:24 |
| Wunderbar | the keyboard shortcuts for volume | 01:24 |
| * vidd is away | 01:25 | |
| Wunderbar | actually, that's not true- they are there- but they're ignored... | 01:25 |
| carlis | what else can i do knome ? | 01:25 |
| DarkTan | knome: it looks a litte like a themexp file, i'll see what i can figure out | 01:26 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, hm, i don't really get it. so you have to go to the shortcut-settings again on every reboot? i mean: are the shortcuts still in the list? | 01:26 |
| Wunderbar | yes, they're listed (correctly) but they're ignored | 01:26 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, or to put it differently: how do you re-activate the shortcuts? | 01:26 |
| knome | DarkTan, sure. good luck and have fun! :) | 01:26 |
| Wunderbar | I re-enter them | 01:27 |
| Wunderbar | and magically they work | 01:27 |
| DarkTan | thankfull it's not this computer, just in case | 01:27 |
| Wunderbar | either in 'sound' or 'keyboard shortcuts' | 01:27 |
| carlis | vidd can u continiue help me ? | 01:27 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, in "sound"? | 01:27 |
| Wunderbar | "enable sound and associate events" | 01:28 |
| Wunderbar | sound settings | 01:28 |
| carlis | u said me if I intall completely xubuntu i am going to get connection to internet and I didn`t get connection | 01:28 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, what version of xfce are you using? | 01:28 |
| Wunderbar | latest | 01:28 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, or xubuntu, if you like | 01:28 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, so 4.6? | 01:28 |
| carlis | vidd ??? | 01:28 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, i'm using that too, but i don't even have sound settings :| | 01:29 |
| vidd | carlis, check the forums for getting your wifi card to work in ubuntu | 01:29 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, how about other keyboard shortcuts? do they also stop working? | 01:29 |
| Wunderbar | nope, I'm using 4.4 | 01:29 |
| vidd | do a google seaerch fo ryour card | 01:29 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, so that's (by far) not the latest version | 01:29 |
| Wunderbar | I realise that | 01:29 |
| Wunderbar | I tried creating a shortcut for screenshots | 01:30 |
| Wunderbar | but that didn't work either | 01:30 |
| carlis | it´s difficukt | 01:30 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, but when i asked you what version you're using you replied "latest"... :) anyways. | 01:30 |
| Wunderbar | actually it is 4.6 | 01:30 |
| Wunderbar | just checked in 'about xfce' | 01:30 |
| Wunderbar | anyways, 4.4 was marginally better | 01:31 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, wait a second, i mean the screenshooter-shortcut is set by default | 01:31 |
| carlis | is there another person to help me ???? | 01:31 |
| Wunderbar | mine doesn't work | 01:31 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, so you did an upgrade recently? | 01:31 |
| carlis | is there an expert here ? | 01:32 |
| Wunderbar | a few days ago | 01:32 |
| vidd | carlis, what is your wifi card again? | 01:32 |
| DarkTan | hmm...odd...not every menu has the same background color | 01:32 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, just try to reset your shortcuts to default, reboot and re-enter them | 01:32 |
| knome | vidd, 22:33 carlis: Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8187B Wireless 802.11g | 01:32 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, or instead of reboot you could also restart your session | 01:32 |
| Wunderbar | Ive done both of those | 01:33 |
| Wunderbar | I tend not to reboot | 01:33 |
| Wunderbar | but sometimes I have to boot into windows | 01:33 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, well the shortcut-system has changed since 4.4 (which was part of the previous xubuntu-version) so it's not extremely unlikely that something was messed up during the upgrade | 01:35 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, even though i've never heard of a problem like yours | 01:35 |
| Wunderbar | someone else told me the other day that they had the same problem | 01:35 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, you can either: backup and do a clean install or: file a bug report | 01:35 |
| Wunderbar | clean install sounds like the way to go | 01:35 |
| Wunderbar | thanks for your help | 01:35 |
| carlis | did u find andything vidd ? | 01:37 |
| vidd | carlis, yeah....http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/usb-wireless-adapter-install-715516/ | 01:37 |
| ochosi | Wunderbar, np | 01:38 |
| vidd | dmesg|grep rtl8187 gives you what carlis (and thats RTL - just lower-case) | 01:39 |
| vidd | ochosi, my linux is a clean install...and my sound keys wont work at all | 01:42 |
| anzo | vidd, what distro? | 01:44 |
| vidd | xubuntu 9.04 | 01:44 |
| anzo | did you cofigure the audio | 01:44 |
| anzo | configure* | 01:44 |
| vidd | they auto-worked with the volume panel app since breezy | 01:44 |
| vidd | yeah | 01:44 |
| anzo | I only installed it briefly and then removed but i had to specify the device i wanted it to control | 01:45 |
| carlis | vidd how do i write vertical line ? | 01:46 |
| vidd | it looks like : only longer.... | 01:46 |
| carlis | I have to write this dmesg|tail | 01:47 |
| vidd | on en keyboards, it usually just above the return key | 01:47 |
| vidd | possibly on the same key as \ | 01:48 |
| vidd | you get it? | 01:49 |
| vidd | carlis, you good now? | 01:53 |
| genii | Alternately, copy and paste | 01:54 |
| vidd | genii, the computer he is working on has no internet atm | 01:54 |
| genii | Aah, OK | 01:55 |
| vidd | and now he's iggin me | 01:56 |
| vidd | maybe he's actually reading fosts | 01:56 |
| vidd | *posts | 01:57 |
| vidd | genii, were you the one that suggeted lfs? | 01:57 |
| genii | vidd: No | 01:57 |
| genii | Oh, wait. yes | 01:58 |
| genii | "LinuxFromScratch" | 01:58 |
| vidd | you are evil =] | 01:58 |
| vidd | i like it | 01:58 |
| genii | vidd: Hehe... I recommend it for people who want to know how linux works and what goes into making a simple distribution. If even only once for educational reasons | 01:59 |
| vidd | you know anything about rtl8187 wifi cards? | 01:59 |
| genii | Mine seems to work fine under 8.04 until it overheats | 02:00 |
| vidd | genii, you have to do anything special? | 02:00 |
| carlis | vidd I have to write this command dmesg|tail | 02:01 |
| carlis | wait | 02:01 |
| genii | vidd: Nope. Under 7.04 and 7.10 I had to do stuff like blacklist some drivers, but not with 8.04 | 02:02 |
| vidd | carlis, genii says that card should "just work" | 02:02 |
| genii | carlis: On keyboard... next key after: TYUIOP{} | 02:02 |
| vidd | genii, he has a non-english (es) keyboard layout | 02:03 |
| genii | Damn, no idea then | 02:03 |
| vidd | me either | 02:03 |
| vidd | carlis, the key says "- -" .... only one on top the other...not side by side | 02:04 |
| carlis | ok | 02:07 |
| vidd | carlis, you get the right key now? | 02:09 |
| sl | I am running 9.04. Using ntlmaps at work to get thru isa proxy, and it works great. But when I take my laptop home I cannot use apt-get. I stopped ntlmaps but still it does not work at home. Do I have to uninstall ntlmaps? | 02:12 |
| vidd | sl do you use different connection types at home and at work? | 02:15 |
| sl | Yes at work I go wired connection | 02:16 |
| sl | Yes at work I go wired connection at home I use wireless | 02:16 |
| vidd | then you ***should*** be able to configure wireless to bybass ntlmaps | 02:17 |
| sl | Is that easy to do? | 02:17 |
| vidd | dunno....googling now | 02:18 |
| vidd | well...that seems simple..... | 02:19 |
| vidd | you have a wired box @home? | 02:19 |
| sl | I have an XP wired box I can use | 02:20 |
| vidd | i was thinking more along the lines of a server box.... | 02:20 |
| sl | oh sorry, no I do not | 02:20 |
| vidd | cuzz you can configure that so you still proxy but to there, and it translates out to the world =] | 02:21 |
| sl | Maybe I could load one in a virtual box and use it that way? | 02:22 |
| sl | virutal box on another pc | 02:22 |
| vidd | pft...set up a proxybox on the lappy | 02:22 |
| vidd | ya dont neeed much | 02:23 |
| sl | I could do that | 02:23 |
| vidd | =] | 02:23 |
| vidd | it pays to think outside (or in this case,,,inside) the box | 02:24 |
| sl | I have only used xubuntu for a month. When you say server are you talking like a debian server or something else? | 02:24 |
| vidd | i mean kernel, and the proxy translation | 02:24 |
| vidd | that should be it | 02:24 |
| vidd | run it inside a qemu, and you (should be) golden | 02:25 |
| sl | Sweet I will start that tonite. Thank you very much for your time, it was very helpful | 02:25 |
| vidd | and with that, i bid all a good nite | 02:26 |
| sl | I'll let you know how it works out | 02:26 |
| sl | good nite | 02:27 |
| vidd | please do | 02:27 |
| carlis | vidd I am going to give u Connection information | 02:27 |
| carlis | Auto Y2K (default) | 02:27 |
| vidd | for what? | 02:28 |
| yuka_ | i got 'pairing failed' with my earphone. how do i troubleshoot this? | 02:28 |
| carlis | Interface: 802.11 Wifi (wlan0) | 02:29 |
| anzo | thats a bt issue | 02:29 |
| anzo | yuka, did you enter the right code to syc | 02:29 |
| yuka_ | anzo: and 'hcitool scan' shows nothing. | 02:29 |
| yuka_ | anzo: what is my code? | 02:29 |
| anzo | they are usually 0000 or 1234 | 02:29 |
| yuka_ | anzo: let me try | 02:29 |
| carlis | Driver: rtl8187 | 02:30 |
| anzo | try and re sync (set device in discovery mode) and then launch search | 02:30 |
| vidd | carlis, i dont understand | 02:30 |
| carlis | what don`t u understand ? | 02:30 |
| vidd | what are you telling me? | 02:30 |
| vidd | wlan0 is your wifi connection | 02:30 |
| carlis | may be if i give u that info u canknow why my pc doesn`t get connection to internet | 02:31 |
| vidd | go into your router..... | 02:31 |
| vidd | does your router see your linux box? | 02:32 |
| anzo | quick question cause i dont wanna look it up: what package should i download to get flash working in firefox? | 02:32 |
| yuka_ | anzo: i did 0000 and it found it, but failed again at the pairing. | 02:32 |
| carlis | ip address: 192.168.1.5 | 02:32 |
| vidd | anzo, flashplugin-nonfree | 02:32 |
| anzo | ok what are the headphones? | 02:32 |
| yuka_ | anzo: it also failes when i check the 'automatic pin selection' checkbox. | 02:32 |
| carlis | Broadcast Address: 192.168.1.255 | 02:33 |
| anzo | No you dont want that it need the verify to make sure the device is what u want to connect to | 02:33 |
| yuka_ | anzo: it's earphones for my mobile phone that i want to use for my laptop music. | 02:33 |
| anzo | thanks vidd | 02:33 |
| yuka_ | anzo: (instead of the phone) | 02:33 |
| carlis | subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 | 02:33 |
| carlis | Default route: 192.168.1.1 | 02:34 |
| carlis | Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1 | 02:34 |
| yuka_ | anzo: is there a log file i can read to try figure it out? | 02:34 |
| carlis | is useful that info vidd ? | 02:34 |
| vidd | can you ping 192.168.1.1? | 02:35 |
| anzo | I am not sure about that, I am sure there is. But a fail to pair means that it isnt the right code or you didnt accept it on the device | 02:35 |
| carlis | wait | 02:35 |
| yuka_ | anzo: i think it's ok now. | 02:35 |
| yuka_ | anzo: i kept clicking on the device's pair button for longer. | 02:36 |
| carlis | Destination Host Unreachable | 02:36 |
| anzo | yah, here is how it works.... you need to set the device in to pair mode by either holding or click the buttons on it | 02:37 |
| anzo | then you need to search for it and when found choose pair | 02:37 |
| vidd | carlis, what IP address does your windows box have? | 02:37 |
| anzo | when it asks for code to join its going to be 1234 or 0000 | 02:37 |
| anzo | i even had my jawbone require i answer the device like i had a call coming in before it would work | 02:37 |
| yuka_ | anzo: now all audio will be send to my earphone? | 02:37 |
| carlis | 192.168.14 | 02:38 |
| anzo | yes, however it might give you issues depending on the device when switching from use with computer to phone | 02:38 |
| vidd | can your windows box ping 192.168.1.1? | 02:39 |
| carlis | wait | 02:39 |
| anzo | understand yuka_ ? | 02:39 |
| carlis | yes, gets answer | 02:40 |
| vidd | can it ping 192.168.1.5? | 02:40 |
| carlis | in windows ? | 02:41 |
| vidd | yes...can windows ping your linux box | 02:41 |
| vidd | carlis, i have to leave to pick someone up from work | 02:44 |
| carlis | i receive answer | 02:44 |
| vidd | ok.... | 02:44 |
| yuka_ | anzo: yes. now i can't find the volume control on my panel...i just upgraded to 9.04 | 02:44 |
| vidd | let me pick my buddy up...ill be back | 02:44 |
| carlis | ok vidd | 02:45 |
| yuka_ | anzo: found it. i opened totem but i only hear the lapop speakers..nothing from the earphone. | 02:47 |
| anzo | tell it the devices you want it to use | 02:47 |
| yuka_ | anzo: totem? opk | 02:47 |
| yuka_ | anzo: ok | 02:48 |
| anzo | no, the os... | 02:48 |
| anzo | when you click the speaker it tells you what options you want it to control.... | 02:48 |
| yuka_ | i don't see the speaker icon on my panel so i added mixer add-in. | 02:49 |
| yuka_ | when i cick on it i see dropdown that let's me choose my sound card. | 02:50 |
| anzo | Dude, i messed with it for like 10 min, i do know when i did the drop down tho that it gave me tons of options to control from the sound card | 02:50 |
| carlis | vidd did u get back ? | 02:51 |
| anzo | yuka_ get anywhere? | 02:53 |
| carlis | vidd r u here ?? | 03:10 |
| yuka_ | anzo: came back from lunch | 03:11 |
| anzo | you did? or are you asking? | 03:12 |
| yuka_ | anzo: just ate. maybe i should find a way to bring back the original volume control on my panel? | 03:13 |
| anzo | I am not completely understanding what the problem is... its not pushing the audio through the bt cause your havent told xubuntu to use the bt as an audio device | 03:13 |
| yuka_ | anzo: (-: and how do i do that? | 03:14 |
| anzo | there should be an option on the audio controller | 03:15 |
| yuka_ | is it 'mixer' add-in or is it somewhere on the settings? | 03:15 |
| yuka_ | anzo: i just don't see anything on my bottom panel. | 03:17 |
| anzo | it might be under options in audio settings | 03:17 |
| yuka_ | anzo: maybe it's a bug with xubuntu, i don't know. | 03:17 |
| yuka_ | anzo: ok, looking into it. | 03:17 |
| anzo | i am still using 8.10 so i dont know how to step you through it | 03:17 |
| yuka_ | anzo: sure. this issue happend before i upgraded. | 03:18 |
| anzo | i dont understand | 03:18 |
| anzo | you upgraded because the bt wasnt working as audio out | 03:19 |
| carlis | How do i fix this: Destination Host Unreachable | 03:19 |
| carlis | who can help me ? | 03:19 |
| yuka_ | anzo: where is the audio settings? | 03:19 |
| anzo | hold on | 03:19 |
| carlis | ok | 03:19 |

| carlis | yes | 03:38 |
| vidd | ok...reboot linux | 03:39 |
| vidd | while linux is OFF try to ping it | 03:39 |
| vidd | if you can still ping, then the two machines are not connecting to the same router | 03:40 |
| carlis | how do i do linux off ? | 03:42 |
| vidd | are you serious? | 03:43 |
| carlis | I am new in linux | 03:43 |
| vidd | are you new to computers too? | 03:44 |
| vidd | applications->log out->turn off | 03:45 |
| carlis | ok | 03:45 |
| carlis | how do i do ping witth linux off ? | 03:46 |
| carlis | the pc shut down | 03:46 |
| carlis | do i turn on the pc again ? | 03:46 |
| vidd | the same way you pinged linux from windows while linux was on | 03:46 |
| carlis | ok | 03:47 |
| vidd | so with linux off can windows still ping 192.168.1.5? | 03:49 |
| carlis | I already understood | 03:50 |
| vidd | and? | 03:50 |
| carlis | ait | 03:50 |
| carlis | wait | 03:50 |
| carlis | It´s the same issue | 03:52 |
| carlis | Linux is off and i get the same issue | 03:52 |
| vidd | if linux is off....how do you know you still have the issue????? | 03:53 |
| vidd | can windows ping 192.168.1.5? | 03:53 |
| carlis | I ping 192.168.1.5 in windows and it´s the same issue | 03:54 |
| vidd | ok...so windows can no longer ping 192,168.1.5 | 03:54 |
| vidd | good....turn linux on | 03:55 |
| carlis | ok | 03:59 |
| carlis | and then vidd ? | 03:59 |
| Sinister | anyone know if you can remove all track numbers all at one time in banshee | 04:00 |

| carlis | ok | 04:00 |
| vidd | what is the ip address? | 04:01 |
| carlis | inet address ? | 04:01 |

| carlis | 192.168.1.5 | 04:02 |
| vidd | ok...can windows ping 192.168.1.5 now? | 04:02 |
| carlis | windows can`t | 04:03 |
| vidd | can linux ping 192.168.1.1? | 04:03 |
| carlis | no | 04:05 |
| vidd | then im at a loss | 04:05 |
| carlis | Destination Host Unreachable | 04:06 |
| vidd | it makes no sence that windows could ping b4 but cannot now | 04:06 |
| carlis | don`t u know how to fix this issue ? | 04:07 |
| carlis | the issue is with Destination Host Unreachable | 04:08 |
| vidd | not without laying hands on the equiptment | 04:08 |
| vidd | did you specify your ip address, or is it set for dhcp? | 04:09 |
| carlis | dhcp | 04:09 |
| vidd | if its set for dhcp, then you should not get an IP if you cannot reach the host | 04:09 |
| carlis | is there not more to do ? | 04:11 |
| vidd | not that i can do..... | 04:11 |
| carlis | vidd ? | 04:11 |

| vidd | has this wifi card worked on you windows machine? | 04:12 |
| carlis | yes, with windows works | 04:12 |
| vidd | my only suggestion is to look on forums and google for more help | 04:13 |
| vidd | that card is supposed to work right out of the box | 04:13 |
| carlis | ok | 04:13 |

| yuka_ | after upgrading i can't see wireless networks. iwconfig doesn't show ath0 interface anymore. any ideas? | 04:30 |
| anzo | yuka_ u still there? | 04:36 |
| yuka_ | anzo: yes. now i have issue with my network interface. | 04:42 |
| anzo | yah i read that | 04:42 |
| anzo | i am trying to remember what i had to do when i had issues with my wireless. What is your wireless card? | 04:43 |
| yuka_ | anzo: can i get this by running lspci? | 04:44 |
| anzo | Yah | 04:45 |
| yuka_ | anzo: i think it's realtek. it worked before... | 04:48 |
| anzo | realtek, that would be an odd wireless card... what type of computer is it? | 04:49 |
| yuka_ | iwconfig doesn't show ath0 interface anymore. any ideas? | 04:50 |
| yuka_ | sorry, wrong channel..didn't mean to ask again. | 04:51 |
| anzo | give me a sec yuka | 04:53 |
| anzo | YUKA whats your computer model | 04:57 |
| yuka_ | anzo: 1 minute.. | 04:59 |
| yuka_ | anzo: http://pastebin.com/m5810636e this is the output of lspci -nn | 05:04 |
| minazo | Anyone ever try disabling their Touchpad on their laptop. Looks like synclient and/or syndaemon will do it but haven't found the right resource yet. I just won't if off. I never use it...it's annoying IMO. | 05:05 |
| minazo | The right resource on how to disable it, that is. | 05:06 |
| anzo | ok Yuka your wireless is Atheros Communications | 05:07 |
| anzo | the realtek is your hardwire | 05:07 |
| yuka_ | anzo: ok. | 05:15 |
| yuka_ | anzo: so how do i enable ath0 again? | 05:15 |
| anzo | you probably need to purge and reinstall | 05:21 |
| anzo | unless you just disabled it | 05:23 |
| yuka_ | anzo: what do u mean by 'it'? | 05:23 |
| anzo | it is the wireless | 05:23 |
| anzo | wait, is your eithernet connection working or is your wireless working? | 05:24 |
| anzo | also what did you update? to 9.04? | 05:24 |
| yuka_ | anzo: wireless is not working. not sure about wired. 9.04 | 05:25 |
| anzo | how are you on the internt? most of the time wireless doesnt work out of the box but wired does | 05:25 |
| yuka_ | anzo: on another machine | 05:26 |
| anzo | ok let me find a link | 05:27 |
| anzo | Hey Yuka_ here is a link that should help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885847&highlight=AR2413+install | 05:33 |

| BSE | mornin' everyone :) | 08:40 |
| BSE | may I have a question? is anyone using "governor" icon in the task panel? | 08:40 |
| BSE | or is it bugged in 9.04 | 08:41 |
| BSE | I was using it in intrepid, but after upgrade it vanished and more important - it doesnt display :) | 08:41 |
| david_ | Hi, I'm running the unsupported 7.04 version of xubuntu, now I want to update to 9.04, can someone help with this as I can't use the update-manager? | 08:47 |
| david_ | I'm already running a clean version of 7.04 so I don't need to backup, the case is however I'm out of cd's so I want to do it without a bootable cd | 08:49 |
| david_ | is this possible? | 08:49 |
| BSE | david_: may I ask you why you dont have update-manager? | 08:55 |
| BSE | david_: this is not working? [you probably have to 7.04->7.10->8.04->8.10->9.04 | 08:56 |
| david_ | I do have but I can't update from this version anymore it appears, it gives a whole list with 404 not found | 08:56 |
| BSE | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=574796 | 08:56 |
| BSE | ah... well, I am noob, so probably someone more experienced will have to answer you with this | 08:57 |
| _Pete_ | I guess easiest would be to buy new CD updating that release chain most probably has some issues | 08:57 |
| david_ | it doesn't even says "a new distribution is available" | 08:57 |

| * SiDi throws thunders at david_ ! | 09:00 | |
| david_ | i'm not doing anything | 09:00 |
| SiDi | Alright, feisty isn't supported anymore afaik | 09:00 |
| SiDi | You should have upgraded to hardy (at least) already | 09:00 |
| david_ | would it be possible to boot from a flash drive? | 09:00 |
| SiDi | What's the issue actually ? | 09:01 |
| BSE | david_: http://www.jonlee.ca/installing-xubuntu-without-a-cd-drive-the-weekend-project-continued/ | 09:01 |
| BSE | SiDi: he has 7.04 installed and no CD and want to upgrade | 09:02 |
| SiDi | And he cant do a dist-upgrade ? | 09:02 |
| SiDi | sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 09:02 |
| david_ | thanks | 09:02 |
| SiDi | oh no, 7.10 is stopped too | 09:02 |
| SiDi | :/ | 09:02 |
| BSE | SiDi: that was probably the spam :D | 09:02 |
| SiDi | BSE: 7.10 is gutsy :p | 09:03 |
| CloseYetFar | he just needs to update his sources.list file and run apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:03 |
| SiDi | Nah, you'll either have to find the _old_ alternate CDs and then upgrade from them | 09:03 |
| SiDi | CloseYetFar: that'll completely break his distro | 09:03 |
| CloseYetFar | thats how you do it on Debian | 09:04 |
| BSE | SiDi: ah, I understand now - yea I know its gutsy, I just dont realised it dont look to feisty when dist updating :) | 09:04 |
| SiDi | CloseYetFar: we have migration scripts | 09:07 |
| SiDi | that would forget the 7.04->7.10 one | 09:08 |
| SiDi | i really wouldn't do this to one of my distros:p | 09:08 |
| CloseYetFar | well you have to go one step at a time | 09:08 |
| CloseYetFar | not from 7.04 to 9.04 lol | 09:08 |
| SiDi | the problem is the repos for 7.04 and 7.10 are closed | 09:09 |
| CloseYetFar | yea thats gonna be a issue | 09:09 |
| CloseYetFar | wait isnt 7.10 LTS | 09:09 |
| BSE | no 8.04 is | 09:10 |
| CloseYetFar | yea | 09:10 |
| SiDi | come on | 09:10 |
| SiDi | i tried 7.10 and it really failed here :) | 09:10 |
| SiDi | apart from pa, 8.04 was perfect | 09:10 |
| CloseYetFar | I alwasy go for the LTS so I dont have to update right away | 09:10 |
| BSE | guy is stuck on only version which cannot be upgraded :D | 09:10 |
| BSE | probably | 09:11 |
| CloseYetFar | Ubuntu moves so fast with version | 09:11 |
| BSE | as 6.10 [and now I talk without knowledge] should be LTS and have scripts to 8.04 :D | 09:11 |
| BSE | and 7.10 should have direct -> 8.04 as well :D | 09:12 |
| SiDi | BSE: it does :D | 09:13 |
| SiDi | but 6.06 just stopped | 09:13 |
| SiDi | afaik there are only 8.04/8.10/9.04 left now | 09:13 |
| SiDi | 6.06 is only for servers now | 09:13 |
| BSE | edgy is 6.06? | 09:14 |
| BSE | ah, ok, i just googled i | 09:16 |
| BSE | t | 09:16 |
| BSE | ah.. now I am little but confused.. will be karmic LTS? | 09:24 |
| BSE | *bit | 09:24 |
| SiDi | No | 09:26 |
| SiDi | 10.04 is the next planned LTS afaik | 09:26 |
| BSE | ah, I thought that LTS are once per 18 month | 09:27 |
| BSE | well, and another question, do any of you have experience with xubuntu on old computer? :) I am thinking about installing it on year old acer [1GHz, 256MB Ram, 20GB disk], .maybe the disk is biggest issue, isnt't it? | 09:29 |
| BSE | 7 year old Acer | 09:30 |
| BSE | my fingers are lazy today o.O | 09:30 |
| Slonkie | 20gb should be enough | 09:31 |
| martink | hi. I would have one question in order to make xubuntu just completely perfect for me: the volume-shortcuts dont work. (they did in (k)ubuntu though). Does anyone maybe have experience with it? | 09:31 |
| martink | in "keyboard"->"application shortcuts" I do "add" but it doesnt let me add a shortcut. only enter "aumix -v+10" | 09:35 |
| SiDi | martink: enter the text, then press ok | 09:35 |
| SiDi | then chose the shortcut | 09:35 |
| martink | yes!!!!!!! | 09:36 |
| martink | thank you very much. Dont know if I would have found that :) | 09:37 |
| Slonkie | haha lol | 09:37 |
| martink | haha | 09:37 |
| BSE | tbh, I miss option tu MUTE and then to UNMUTE :( | 09:40 |
| martink | yes I dont have "unmute" neither, but I'm more than happy with that now!!! | 09:40 |
| BSE | maybe it is somehow possible with aumix, but I didn't find it | 09:41 |
| Slonkie | you do have mute, right BSE ? | 09:43 |
| BSE | Slonkie: yea, I have mute, but it simply sets volume to zero | 09:45 |
| Slonkie | yes | 09:45 |
| Slonkie | you chould make unmute to volume 10 ;P | 09:45 |
| BSE | I was used to be able to return original volume after second "mute" :) | 09:45 |
| BSE | I am using different volumes often :) | 09:45 |
| Slonkie | yea i see | 09:46 |
| BSE | ok, see ya later | 09:48 |
| Slonkie | bye | 09:48 |

| BSE | or specialised IDE? | 14:11 |
| Slonkie | mousepad | 14:11 |
| BSE | may it be html, C++ or python.. | 14:11 |
| Slonkie | whatever i need coded | 14:12 |
| BSE | I would use it, but is has no syntax highlight... or has it? | 14:12 |
| Slonkie | Don't think so. i don't use the highlights | 14:12 |
| * ablomen uses gedit | 14:13 | |
| niabsirc | kate is nice | 14:14 |
| ablomen | it has syntax higlighting and tonns of plugins (like snipets, inline terminals etc) which make it pretty good | 14:14 |

| Besogon | In gnome it mounted fine | 17:28 |
| Besogon | ? | 17:28 |
| charlie-tca | What about sudo mount /dev/device? | 17:31 |
| Besogon | How can I know what is should device I need to use? | 17:33 |
| Besogon | How can I know what device should I use? | 17:34 |
| Besogon | ? | 17:34 |
| zoredache | disconnect the device, and then reconnect it. once it is reconnected drop to a terminal and run dmesg | 17:35 |
| Besogon | I will try | 17:35 |
| zoredache | the last few lines should give you an idea about if the device was detected and what device names it is using | 17:35 |
| Besogon | Bus 001 Device 010: ID 04a9:3126 Canon, Inc. | 17:38 |

| cougarten | how to disable/hide a desktopicon (floppy drive) or disable the floppy drive? | 17:43 |
| Besogon | What would YOU say to that? It seems that it cant find my device. Becouse last strings are like: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 10 | 17:43 |
| cougarten | and why is the desktop a bit glitchy sometimes? is that xubuntu or my old hardware? | 17:44 |
| Besogon | cougarten, No way. You can remove only all desktopicon to removable devaces. | 17:47 |
| Besogon | zoredache, ? | 17:47 |
| cougarten | and disableing that stupid floppy drive? | 17:47 |
| zoredache | zoredache: it may be that your camera needs some extra drive or software to actually connect. It doesn't appear like it is going to show up as a disk device | 17:48 |
| Besogon | cougarten, yes you are. And you will disable ALL usb devices when you stick it in | 17:49 |
| cougarten | okey | 17:49 |
| zoredache | personally, I use a memory card reader. I find that it is usually faster and works a lot better most of the time | 17:49 |
| cougarten | than I'll keep that icon | 17:49 |
| Besogon | zoredache, some times ago my camera connected fine. I will try to use it in GNOME again. I have old computer and havent USB2 )))) | 17:50 |

| charlie-tca | Adobe is looking for testers with 64-bit systems. Seems they are trying to get out some Linux only software for now. | 20:15 |

| dahaic | charlie-tca: I am afraid it will be like flash plugin :( still not really on par with windows | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | But windows is not even getting it yet! | 20:33 |
| charlie-tca | They also have 64-bit flash for Linux only! | 20:33 |
| dahaic | because 64bit windows are minority, with real margin, so they are using as as guinea pigs [which I dont mind] | 20:34 |
| charlie-tca | doesn't that kind of leave windows users out? | 20:34 |
| SiDi | cause windows sucks too much for 64b apps =) | 20:35 |
| dahaic | I really look forward to one day, that it will be really no difference between flash on win and linux, and I think it will come, but it is long way :) | 20:35 |
| SiDi | Wonderful | 20:37 |
| SiDi | today's update killed my sound | 20:37 |
| cody-somerville | Which update? | 20:40 |
| J_Litewski | I got a semi decent GUI going my Python program =) | 21:00 |
| dahaic | SiDi: which update killed the sound? | 21:22 |
| SiDi | dahaic: the latest one | 21:23 |
| SiDi | there were cups packages, udev, libwft (or something similar), and bluetooth | 21:23 |
| SiDi | maybe it was bluez-alsa | 21:23 |
| dahaic | SiDi: you are using developer updates? | 21:23 |
| SiDi | i rebooted and it was back | 21:23 |
| J_Litewski | what is the best GUI specification? | 22:19 |
| martink | hi. I have a general linux-question, i'm still rather new to it: how do you deinstall application that aren't part of packet-sources? | 22:45 |
| martink | in this example: maple or matlab | 22:45 |
| J_Litewski | markink, open a terminal and type sudo apt-get remove [application] | 22:46 |
| SiDi | martink: they're all parts of a package :) | 22:48 |
| martink | well. i dont want to deinstall it now, but my synaptic does not find my maple or matlab | 22:51 |
| martink | could this be, because I installed it into my home? | 22:52 |
| martink | deinstalling Matlab with sudo apt-get remove matlab doesn't work. | 23:12 |
| martink | I know I should have installed it properly, but I did install it into my home dir. | 23:13 |
| martink | any idea on how I could deinstall it? | 23:13 |
| zoredache | how did you install it? Usually you need to do the reverse of whatever you did to install | 23:13 |
| martink | I started an installer on the disc | 23:14 |
| zoredache | check on the disk and see if there is an unintall script | 23:15 |
| zoredache | or look in the matlab directory on your system perhaps under something like bin and see if there is a script or file named uninstall | 23:19 |
| martink | thanks. I would have been too lazy to check the disk. Fould a hint in a documentary there | 23:21 |
| martink | and it seems to be gone. good. | 23:22 |
| martink | rm -rf matlabroot | 23:22 |
| martink | while matlabroot is the path to the directory I installed it to. | 23:23 |
