| Sharkfin | Hiya! | 00:26 |
| Sharkfin | I've just installed Xubuntu and I have a couple of Qs | 00:26 |
| Sharkfin | Websites load slowly. | 00:27 |
| Sharkfin | Correction - website lookups are slow | 00:27 |
| Sharkfin | like the DNS is misconfigured or something | 00:27 |
| Sharkfin | intra-site links are like lightning | 00:27 |
| Sharkfin | Hi | 00:29 |
| Sharkfin | Nobody talks, huh? | 00:29 |
| ron_o | Sharkfin, I saw on Ubuntu.com forums that there's a solution to your problem. | 00:29 |
| TheSheep | you didn't ask a question | 00:29 |
| ron_o | hehe, TheSheep. :) | 00:30 |
| Sharkfin | ron_o: search terms on the forum? | 00:30 |
| ron_o | DNS lookup slow .... web slow DNS problems .... slow internet connection ... | 00:30 |
| Sharkfin | thnx. Searching | 00:31 |
| ron_o | I always just search google with either xubuntu or ubuntu and google can give you a better solution, usually, than just forum only searching. | 00:32 |
| ron_o | ymmv | 00:32 |
| ron_o | *xubuntu or ubuntu in the search phrase. | 00:33 |

| TheSheep | the python compiler and interpreter is installed in ubuntu by default | 05:12 |
| TheSheep | and in xubuntu | 05:12 |
| TheSheep | come to #python if you have questions | 05:12 |

| Ahmuck | hi. i need to transfer files and settings from one pc to another. is there a migration tool? | 07:17 |
| Vasklevox | w00t, only 35 minutes till I can plant 9.04 on thumbdrive... | 07:26 |
| R1cochet | y do u have to wait? | 07:42 |
| Vasklevox | Slow internet. | 07:43 |

| Kasm279 | i have a MAJOR bug | 09:25 |
| Kasm279 | the xfce4-mixer-plugin (for the panel) will randomly slam my CPU | 09:26 |
| Kasm279 | restarting it solves the problem, but im wondering if anyone else has this issue | 09:27 |
| SiDi_ | no :/ | 09:32 |
| SiDi_ | what do you mean by slam your CPU ? | 09:32 |
| Kasm279 | it uses up all of the CPU | 09:33 |
| Kasm279 | it makes my laptop heat up so much that the 'emergency' fan comes on, which i know is at around 150 degrees farenheit | 09:33 |
| SiDi_ | 150 farenheit ? That'd be more than 100 celsius, your PC would have gone down long time :/ | 09:34 |
| Kasm279 | as soon as i removed the mixer from the panel, the CPU usage went down to about 12% | 09:35 |
| Kasm279 | no | 09:35 |
| SiDi_ | can you please report a bug in bugzilla.xfce.org ? | 09:35 |
| Kasm279 | 212F is 100C | 09:35 |
| Kasm279 | k | 09:35 |
| SiDi_ | Please give them accurate hardware info, tell them what version of xubuntu you use | 09:36 |
| SiDi_ | are you on 9.04 or not ? if 9.04 your xfce version is 4.6.0, otherwise its 4.4 | 09:36 |
| Kasm279 | will it matter that its kubuntu with the xubuntu-desktop package installed? | 09:36 |
| Kasm279 | (it is 9.04) | 09:37 |
| SiDi_ | it should be the same | 09:37 |
| Kasm279 | k | 09:37 |
| SiDi_ | you're sure you got no KDE services running, though ? | 09:37 |
| Kasm279 | thats what i assumed, but i was just making sure | 09:37 |
| Kasm279 | im using konversation :\ | 09:37 |
| SiDi_ | hm :p | 09:37 |
| SiDi_ | tell them you got kde stuff running then, we never know | 09:38 |
| SiDi_ | you DONT use pulseaudio, right ? | 09:38 |
| Kasm279 | eh? | 09:38 |
| SiDi_ | type ps aux | grep pulse and give me the result please | 09:38 |
| Kasm279 | whats that? | 09:38 |
| SiDi_ | its a sound server used in ubuntu but not in xubuntu | 09:38 |
| SiDi_ | because not supported by xfce | 09:39 |
| Kasm279 | blargh | 09:39 |
| Kasm279 | now updater is slamming the CPU | 09:39 |
| Kasm279 | kasm279 23447 0.0 0.1 3336 804 pts/0 S+ 02:40 0:00 grep pulse | 09:40 |
| SiDi_ | alright, no pulseaudio | 09:41 |
| SiDi_ | what is your CPU ? | 09:41 |
| Kasm279 | k | 09:41 |
| Kasm279 | Sysinfo for 'kasm279-HP-laptop': Linux 2.6.28-11-generic running , CPU: Intel(R)Celeron(R)CPU2.80GHz at 2791 MHz (5583 bogomips), HD: 16/53GB, RAM: 418/433MB, 130 proc's, 2.9d up | 09:41 |
| Kasm279 | thats a handy script :D | 09:41 |
| SiDi_ | wow, not much ram :) | 09:43 |
| Kasm279 | updating xulrunner? i already ran updates today :\ *grumble* | 09:43 |
| Kasm279 | its really 512 | 09:43 |
| Kasm279 | i think the video card is skimming off of it | 09:43 |
| SiDi_ | ah yeh probably | 09:43 |
| Kasm279 | (it has 64MB to itself, but i think its set to use the ram if needed) | 09:44 |
| SiDi_ | i think it just takes ram, not only if needed :p | 09:44 |
| Kasm279 | XD | 09:45 |
| SiDi_ | there were many of these cards for some time. they claimed they had 128mb ram and in little letters it was written they actually had 32 and were stealing the rest from PC's ram | 09:45 |
| Kasm279 | o hey, theres a bug about this, but its when the person unplugs a USB headset | 09:45 |
| Kasm279 | its a laptop | 09:45 |
| SiDi_ | a bug about what ? | 09:46 |
| Kasm279 | the xfce4-mixer-plugin using 100% CPU | 09:46 |
| SiDi_ | hm | 09:47 |
| SiDi_ | say it in the bug report then :) | 09:47 |
| Kasm279 | im creating a new report as mine pops up randomly | 09:47 |
| Kasm279 | SiDi_: filed a report on it | 10:02 |
| SiDi_ | cheers | 10:02 |
| Kasm279 | XD | 10:02 |
| Kasm279 | ah, the sweet hum of 1 of the fans off and the other on low | 10:03 |
| Kasm279 | oh, one more question | 10:03 |
| Kasm279 | how can i get a temperature readout from a thermal zone in the panel? | 10:04 |
| SiDi_ | xfce4-sensors-plugin does that | 10:04 |
| Kasm279 | i downloaded it but i dont know how to compile it >.< | 10:05 |
| SiDi_ | :/ | 10:05 |
| Kasm279 | (im assuming you have to compile it) | 10:05 |
| SiDi_ | sudo apt-get xfce4-sensors-plugin | 10:05 |
| SiDi_ | oops | 10:05 |
| SiDi_ | sudo apt-get install xfce4-sensors-plugin | 10:05 |
| Kasm279 | XD | 10:05 |
| Kasm279 | k | 10:05 |
| SiDi_ | you can also use the synaptic package manager. | 10:06 |
| Kasm279 | i know that mush | 10:06 |
| Kasm279 | mutch* | 10:06 |
| SiDi_ | much ? | 10:06 |
| Kasm279 | >.< | 10:07 |
| Kasm279 | ty | 10:07 |
| SiDi_ | not that i have anything against mushes :p | 10:07 |
| Kasm279 | ive had to use the terminal to get the wlan card working :\ | 10:07 |
| SiDi_ | ndiswrapper ? | 10:07 |
| SiDi_ | there's a gui for that too :] | 10:07 |
| Kasm279 | apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 10:07 |
| Kasm279 | no | 10:07 |
| Kasm279 | that wouldnt work | 10:08 |
| SiDi_ | then you could have used the synaptic package manager to install the b43 driver | 10:08 |
| Kasm279 | and fwcutter is much more efficient | 10:08 |
| Kasm279 | i know that now | 10:08 |
| SiDi_ | apt-get is just another interface to dpkg, aswell as aptitude, gnome-app-install and synaptic | 10:08 |
| Kasm279 | but the terminal is so much... simpler | 10:09 |
| SiDi_ | yes :) | 10:09 |
| Kasm279 | ooooh | 10:09 |
| Kasm279 | i need to do autoremove >.< | 10:09 |
| Kasm279 | i have a huge list from getting rid of kmail, konquerer, quassel, xchat, firefox, thunderbird... and many more | 10:10 |
| Kasm279 | SiDi_: im assuming that the ACPI sensor that is at 0mWh has something to do with the battery? | 10:14 |
| SiDi_ | no idea | 10:16 |
| Kasm279 | i will find out when i get the new battery -.- | 10:16 |
| Kasm279 | OH | 10:18 |
| Kasm279 | BATT1 is the sensor label >.< | 10:18 |
| Kasm279 | SiDi_: how do i force a command that needs root access (in terminal) | 10:20 |
| SiDi_ | sudo :p | 10:20 |
| Kasm279 | wo-hoo! | 10:21 |
| Kasm279 | o gots HD temp now | 10:21 |
| Kasm279 | SiDi_: thanks very much | 10:38 |
| Kasm279 | have a good night (or moring or day or evening) | 10:39 |

| Hetor | Hello, I have a problem with Screen. When I first launched it, it worked fine, but I had to reboot, and now when I launch Screen, all I see is a bash shell. Can anybody help me? | 19:01 |
| Besogon | Hetor, you dont install graphic driver | 19:09 |
| Besogon | may be | 19:09 |
| Hetor | nvm, figured it out | 19:09 |
| Hetor | I had to mess with screen-profiles | 19:10 |
| Besogon | Does gdm work? | 19:11 |
| Hetor | :s | 19:11 |
| Hetor | Screen is a program | 19:11 |
| Hetor | I didn't have any problems with GDM or X | 19:11 |
| Besogon | When you try login to xfce X falls, does't it? | 19:12 |
| Hetor | no it doesn't | 19:15 |
| Hetor | why should it? | 19:15 |
| Hetor | "Screen" is a terminal multiplexor | 19:16 |
| Besogon | Hetor, gdm not work for you. | 19:16 |
| Hetor | gdm does work | 19:16 |

| SiDi | Besogon: read this please :) | 19:20 |
| SiDi | Hetor: the people at #ubuntu-server may be much more helpful than us for any screen related questions :) Especially since the upstream contact for screen-profiles should be there. | 19:21 |
