arkham618Hmm, haven't used IRC in ages. Anybody available to answer a question or two?04:26
maduseryeah04:29
maduserwhat?04:33
arkham618Cool. Thanks. I'll just launch into, then. I have Jaunty installed on a Jetbook (Intel Dual Core w/4GB RAM) and the HDD light is blinking exactly every second, even when the system is idle. It's like a clock. I can't figure out what's causing it. I've googled and found similar complaints from notebook users, but no real fixes.04:33
madusercould be a bug04:35
arkham618Any thoughts on what might cause it?04:36
maduserno04:36
arkham618Know anyone who might be able to help?04:37

SilentWarriorhey guys, i want to change my laptop (rly old) from Kubuntu (kde4) to xubuntu, so it becomes more responsive, anyone tryed this before? What did you notice in terms of performance? (its a 800mhz, 1gb, compac presario)16:26
SilentWarriorbtw, can i quickly change Kubuntu into Xubuntu?16:27
SilentWarriorif so, how?16:27
SilentWarriori have it installed already using Synaptic16:27
forcesSilentWarrior, xfce is quickly than KDE417:00
forcesthat's obvious17:01
xyloxSilentWarrior, i went from gnome to xfce in my old P3 and the increase in speed is remarkable17:04
mauihi guys, how do i add links to the top panel, i want to add apps that are not in the list, how do i do?17:07
ValsumHi maui. It's simple: add them as Launchers.17:08
mauisorry but its a brand new xubuntu install and im a total newbie17:08
mauireally dont know how to do that17:09
Valsumafter right click in the panel and 'add new element', the first option is add 'launcher'17:10
mauiand then look for the .bin file17:10
mauithanks man17:10
Valsumonce you click on 'add', you just select an icon, a name for the launcher, and put the application name you want17:10
Valsumaye17:10
Valsumnp17:10
SilentWarriorxylox hey, i installed xubuntu, as i stated, i am trying to change from kdm to gdm, but all stuff i find says that i should pick one when a dialog pops up, but, i never get a pop up or anythin17:13
SilentWarriorhow can i change from kdm to the xubuntu one (xfce), manually or something, i have xubuntu installed already on my kubuntu17:14
SilentWarriorforces, xylox17:16
xyloxSilentWarrior, in synaptic choose xubuntu-desktop and install it, after that you should get the option when starts your session17:18
forcesSilentWarrior, select in session the option xfce17:18
nicklas_öj17:21
SilentWarriorso, i should logout and select it?17:21
mauiValsum: the system is super slow, probably cuz its a dated laptop, but is there a way to reduce to the minimum the cpu usage? like shutting down apps and processes i dont use or i dunno?17:22
xyloxSilentWarrior, yes, you'll see the option on session start17:23
Valsummaui: Yes, mine is an old laptop and I deactivated bluetooth, in system\services and in settings\sessions\autostarted apps17:23
SilentWarriorxylox, btw, how can i make "synergyc 10.1.1.106" run at start (before session login, so i can input my password from the other pc)? i had it on a KDE startup folder17:26
mauihow do i save all the settings and stuff of the system in order to have some kind of back up like "system restore" in windows?17:37
xyloxSilentWarrior, when i need to run commands at startup i put them in /etc/init.d/rc.local, but never tried that synergy you say17:38
xyloxSilentWarrior, there's also an autostarted apps icon in xfce seetings manager you could try17:41
SilentWarriorxylox, my login screen is still KDE >< how can i make the other one default?18:22
littleAre there any Xubuntu developers in the channel right now?18:57
SiDilittle: yes19:06
SiDithere are several19:06
littleExcellent, thanks! Pasting something into pastebin real quick.19:07
littleI was thinking of switching to Ubuntu from Kubuntu since I don't want KDE4 and would like a long-term solution. I then found out that the Ubuntu default install comes with Mono (which I can remove). For reasons I'd rather not go into, I would rather not install a release that installs Mono by default. I installed Xubuntu in VirtualBox and did a locate for mono and got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209915/ and I'm wondering if that19:10
littlemeans Xubuntu also installs mono.19:10
littleIf not, then today I install Xubuntu. (:19:11
SiDilittle: we dont ship mono ;)19:11
SiDiits just some stuff that has similar names, but we dont have libmono* and mono* installed by default in Xubuntu19:11
SiDionly C / Python stuff19:11
littleSiDi: Do you know what those files are that locate found?19:12
littleAnd do you guys plan to keep Mono out of Xubuntu? I'd like to install a release I can count on keeping for a while. (:19:12
SiDiapp-install stuff probably comes from gnome-app-install19:12
SiDilittle: i dont have any decision power about that, i'm not actually a xubuntu dev19:13
SiDibut i dont think it should happen soon. mono takes a lot of room on a CD19:13
cemunalhi all19:13
littleSiDi: Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. (:19:14
SiDithe rest of these locate files seem to be related to a font, a driver, and some other stuff19:14
SiDicemunal: hiya19:14
cemunalhow can i disable update notifier?19:14
SiDicemunal: Apps -> Parameters -> Startup & session19:14
SiDithen, third tab, and uncheck it19:14
littleSiDi: Okay, thanks. I did compare them to what comes on Ubuntu, and the list on Ubuntu is much larger, so I wasn't sure. (:19:15
cemunalSiDi: xubuntu 8.04 lts19:15
SiDicemunal: oh19:17
SiDicemunal: i don't remember the path in 8.04, but it should be somewhere in the XFCE Parameters. if you're lazy, you can go to .config/autostart and edit the update-notifier file there ;)19:18
cemunalSiDi: i don't know what i did but i can't see notifier now :D19:19
cemunalSiDi: thanks19:20
ramrodS0210, i have solved my opera flash problem20:17

ramrodand then under tools > preferences21:03
ramrodadvanced > content21:03
ramrodand then at the plugin options21:03
ramrodchange path and add21:03
ramrodbut i tried it with the .so file on the desktop and it worked either you only have to put the right path in the plugin options21:04

ramrodok cool21:08
S0210ramrod: first of all thanks. but I do not understand because the plugin came with ubuntu-restricted-extras was also 10.0 r22...21:09
ramrodyes21:09
ramrodin the german ubuntu forums21:09
ramrodthey say that the flashplugin out of the repos is wrapped by an 32bit wrapper21:09

eu-eng1I use xubuntu, please help me with one error. Thats anough for to day. Thanks please.21:38
SiDieu-eng1: use pastebin's for big output, and you didnt tell us which error in particular. the nm-applet thing doesnt seem to be annoying (do you have problems with it?) The pureftpd error is self-explicit, it cant launch pureftpd. and your update-notifier seems to launch twice21:38
SiDi!paste21:38
ubottupastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic21:38
eu-eng1Oh sorrie that i did not use pastebin. Sorry for that.21:38
eu-eng1Oke, the rule is to use pastebin. So here is my link: http://paste.ubuntu.com/209983/    First i aks to find a solution for the problem that the update-notifier seems to launch twice. Please.21:51
eu-eng1Sorrie, but i tried to understand xubuntu. I am a beginner with this file xsession-errors. I do not know where to start finding the problem from the error log. To start asking, may be this question; Why is says the errorlog update-notifier already running?21:59
eu-eng1About the nm-applet have maybe a problem with the wifi enviroment. Becaus it is an old one without wpa. So Firt wil my built wifi in on my laptop ask for a network with wep. But that is not possible.22:03
eu-eng1After it, it wil connect by another usb wifi to my router. And than my laptop connect to the internet.22:05
eu-eng1Does it help if i say sorry to you. Please can you help me with a solution for these problems, to make me a user instead of a beginner.22:07
eu-eng1?22:07
SiDihttp://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=107942 new xfwm :]22:09
SiDieu-eng1: we're all volunteers and not always in front of our screens, so we dont answer immediately22:10
SiDiYour nm-applet errors, you shouldn't worry about them, in my opinion.22:10
SiDiPlease type the following command in a terminal : "ps aux | grep update-notifier" and show me the output in another paste, eu-eng122:10
eu-eng1Oke, thanks, no problem.22:11
SiDiit'll display the processes running with "update-notifier" in their name22:11
eu-eng1Oke i did command ps aux.....and this is my pastebin; http://paste.ubuntu.com/209990/22:16
SiDiok so it only runs once, eu-eng122:16
SiDimeans you shouldn't worry about this one either :)22:17
SiDican you manually kill and relaunch pureftpd and tell me if there are particular errors ? This way we'll know what goes wrong with it22:17
SiDiFailed to run gnome-keyring-daemon: Failed to execute child process "gnome-keyring-daemon" (Bestand of map bestaat niet)22:18
SiDiWhat does the dutch part mean in english ?22:18
eu-eng1First i wil command /etc/init.d/pureftpd restart oke?22:21
SiDiyeh, with sudo22:22
eu-eng1Bestand of map bestaat niet; it means - > file or directory is not to be / is not on your computer22:22
SiDitry sudo apt-get reinstall gnome-keyring libgnome-keyring022:24
eu-eng1I installed xubuntu from the cd, so maybe theres is not gnome-keyring-daemon installed maybe??22:24
SiDiit should be here22:24
SiDiDid you check the CD's integrity before installing ?22:25
eu-eng1In the program:"session and startup" I add pureftpd. But pureftpd wil not start with the command ; laptop:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/pureftpd start22:28
eu-eng1sudo: /etc/init.d/pureftpd: command not found22:28
eu-eng1Oh sorry, but may be, i did not check the intergrity before installing.22:32
SiDieu-eng1: remove it from autostart22:33
SiDiit should be in the "services" section, not in autostart22:34
eu-eng1oke, i remove pureftpd form autostart.22:34
SiDiits a daemon22:34
SiDi!daemon22:34
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about daemon22:34
SiDihttp://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(Unix)22:34
eu-eng1oke22:34
SiDiyou can use ps aux | grep pure if you wanna check if it runs22:35
eu-eng1Oke, and my pastebin of ps aux | grep pure; http://paste.ubuntu.com/210003/22:39
eu-eng1Thanks for saying about daemon remove from startup. I have another question for autostart. Is xfce4-panel in autostart the right place? Is that oke?22:40
eu-eng1Oke, i did reinstalle  gnome-keyring libgnome-keyring022:44
eu-eng1And about nm-applet, i shoud not worry anymore. thanks22:45
SiDieu-eng1: it already starts normally22:47
SiDieu-eng1: autostart is for the things you want to start with YOUR user session22:47
SiDifor the things that run on the whole system, you should use Apps -> System -> Services22:47
eu-eng1My computer cannot find the repository of the pureftpd packet. After sudo apt-get install pureftpd it says cannot read E:22:55
SiDiits pure-ftpd22:55
eu-eng1thanks22:56
eu-eng1Oke, that was the solution. Gpureadmin was installed. But not pure-ftpd. Thanks for help.22:58
eu-eng1The goal was one solution. So thanks for help. It is time to go sleep. Sleep well....23:01
SiDieu-eng1: thanks, you too23:03
