[00:29] <pteague_work> any ideas for getting rid of static?
[00:40] <lizarddude951> does anyone know how to make audio output through a ps3?
[01:07] <_999> Hello
[01:08] <_999> Which one do I get to have a Bootable CD? --> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/9.04/release/
[01:10] <_999> Nevermind
[01:28] <bob__> I need a working x.org file for nvidia legacy drivers to get at eat 1024x768 @ 60hz the guy helping me on #ubuntu managed to make things worse by having xubuntu want to load into low graphics mode
[01:35] <crazEgamer201> Hi, just got a new computer and am attempting to instal xubuntu to an external hdd. The life CD boots up fine, but once I've installed it on my usb hdd and try to boot up I get a GRUB error 2. Can someone please help me rectify this?
[01:36] <crazEgamer201> *live CD
[01:38] <forces> crazEgamer201, where did you install grub?
[01:39] <bob__> so anyone got a working xorg.conf for me?
[01:40] <crazEgamer201> Well, the external hdd is the only drive hooked up to my comp besides the dvd drive
[01:40] <crazEgamer201> So I'm assuming it was installed there
[01:46] <crazEgamer201> I'm installing the 32 bit version on a computer with a 64 bit CPU, could that be a factor?
[01:46] <nicklas_> hello, if you install wine in xubuntu, is ther anything you have to do besides going thrugh the setiings before installing games?
[05:11] <Jmns> so, does anybody knows why everytime I reboot my machie, xubuntu forgets my screen resolution?
[05:17] <n2diy> Jmns: no I don't but my test box boots up in a lower resolution, and stays there reboot after reboot. This box is fine, both are running Xu 8.04
[05:25] <[texas]> how do i change the transparent selection color thing

[05:30] <Jmns> lol tho
[05:30] <[texas]> is that your real password? that'd be annoying to type a lot
[05:31] <Jmns> nope, it's a confirmation code
[05:31] <Jmns> after you register your nick
[05:31] <[texas]> oh yeah, i remember that
[05:31] <[texas]> i hated registering this
[05:31] <Jmns> why?
[05:31] <Jmns> I don't even know why I registered this, I don't like it
[05:31] <[texas]> im lazy
[05:32] <[texas]> change it to something else then?
[05:32] <Jmns> I had the one I loved
[05:32] <Jmns> MY nick
[05:32] <Jmns> but then something happened
[05:33] <Jmns> the power went down
[05:33] <[texas]> what was it
[05:33] <Jmns> and nickserv hasn't kick out my nick
[05:33] <Jmns> so when I rejoined i was still there
[05:33] <[texas]> ohh

[05:36] <[texas]> i dont know how to fix it, if it's what you're implying
[05:38] <Jmns> the thing is I never registered
[05:38] <Jmns> otherwise I could ghost it
[05:39] <[texas]> why don't you change your nick to it, and then register?
[05:40] <Jmns> because there is already logged in, so it won't let me use it
[05:41] <[texas]> hmm..
[05:42] <[texas]> any way to change your IP?
[05:42] <[texas]> could probably kick that nick out

[05:52] <Jmns> my old nick is still conected, if I whois it, it says it's logged with my old IP
[05:53] <[texas]> head over to #ubuntu and ask, it's not xubuntu specific, there are a lot of people in there answerin questions
[05:54] <Jmns> i wasn't really asking
[05:54] <[texas]> i duno then

[08:31] <diecastarts> for pasting an error
[08:32] <psycho_oreos> if its more than 3 lines, best is to use pastebin :)
[08:32] <psycho_oreos> !pastebin
[08:33] <diecastarts> ok well i tring to run a program omvviewer-light with mono and gtk-sharp... and i get this error when i try

[08:40] <knome> !pastebin | diecastarts
[08:41] <knome> diecastarts, please.
[08:41] <psycho_oreos> do you not know how to use pastebin? lol
[08:41] <diecastarts> i tried
[08:41] <diecastarts> guess noit
[08:41] <psycho_oreos> you go into that link, paste the stuff, hit submit, and then when you get the url, either from address bar or otherwise specified, copy and paste that url instead lol
[08:42] <diecastarts> http://paste.ubuntu.com/224150/
[08:42] <diecastarts> it in there twice sorry
[08:43] <psycho_oreos> you'll need to set a variable and export it so that it becomes an environment variable
[08:43] <diecastarts> long time for me.. havn't use irc in yearrrsssss
[08:44]  * psycho_oreos still wouldn't think that would be a valid excuse :) dialup users will be annoyed seeing that :)
[08:44] <diecastarts> which means i need to read books then because i have no idea
[08:44] <psycho_oreos> probably BASH-HOWTO would be a good start
[08:45] <diecastarts> well the flooding meant in my day repeating text over and over to cause crashes
[08:45] <diecastarts> thank you. frist good answer i got all night
[08:46] <diecastarts> been at this for hours LOL
[08:46] <knome> exporting a variable: export VARIABLE_NAME=variable_value
[08:46] <psycho_oreos> you'll need to locate the file in its full path, e.g. /usr/src/linux-2.6.29.4/.config and then set it as var.. like KERN_CONF=/usr/src/linux-2.6.29.4/.config. Once set, you export it
[08:47] <psycho_oreos> well its either crashes or you cause dialup/narrow-band users to disconnect because of excessive data received on their clients
[08:49] <diecastarts> in my case gtk-sharp address?
[08:49] <diecastarts> actually Never mind i don't get it at all... finally hit a point i cannot just easy fix it
[08:50] <psycho_oreos> well if its one location I suppose so, yes and you suppliment the variable to whatever that is required (obviously)
[08:50] <diecastarts> yeah i get that much.. but how to do i just going to finally have to look at the free books i downloaded
[08:53] <psycho_oreos> you type those in terminal basically
[08:54] <diecastarts> yeah i get common line... and all that... but still new pretty new...
[08:55] <diecastarts> i'll go and read bash how-to
[08:55] <diecastarts> thanks for the help
[08:58] <psycho_oreos> nw
[08:59] <Leroytirebiter> could I trouble someone for a little help with an xubuntu 9.04 install issue?
[08:59] <diecastarts> stay think 8.10
[08:59] <diecastarts> stay with
[09:00] <diecastarts> sorry i found it buggy still...
[09:00] <diecastarts> but anyway later all
[09:00] <Leroytirebiter> well, I'd like to see if I can resolve this issue first....
[09:10] <Leroytirebiter> so, launching right in I guess... I'm trying to install xubuntu 9.04 on a Dell inspiron 4000 notebook. Everything has gone smoothly in the install so far (aside from a few painful noises from the disc drive) up until step five where it requires a username, password etc. The problem is I can't enter any text into the fields. any help or directions on where to seek help would be great (checked the forums, scoured the net for solutions)
[09:19] <psycho_oreos> the keyboard work before then?
[09:23] <Leroytirebiter> yes
[09:23] <Leroytirebiter> I had DSL installed before
[09:25] <psycho_oreos> have you tried pressing any of the * lock buttons? (i.e. num lock, caps lock, scroll lock) and see if the lights for them come on?
[09:25] <Leroytirebiter> yes
[09:26] <Leroytirebiter> they work just fine
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> during the setup I mean
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> and also did you try getting in one of the tty to see if the keyboard works?
[09:28] <Leroytirebiter> ah. no haven't tried that
[09:33] <Leroytirebiter> to be quite honest, though, I don't know how to do that.... all I know is that a) the keyboard is fine physically  b) I'm stuck (not frozen) on step 5 of the install, I am unable to get the cursor to appear in the entry fields
[09:34] <knome> Leroytirebiter, obvious question: have you tried to press tab? :P
[09:34] <Leroytirebiter> yes, nothing....
[09:35] <knome> Leroytirebiter, what happens if you press ctrl+alt+f1? if you can get to a tty, you can get back to the graphical installer with ctrl+alt+f[something] (7 if i am correct)
[09:36] <Leroytirebiter> IO APIC resources could not be allocated.
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> think the installer may have froze
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> if you can do such things whilst the computer is running the install, its probably that program only that's stuff
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> stuffed
[09:37] <Leroytirebiter> no, because I can go back a step.... and I don't think the ISO was corrupted (though it may have been)
[09:38] <Leroytirebiter> is there any other information about the install or the machine that would be usefull?
[09:49] <Leroytirebiter> well, another night I suppose. Thanks for trying, better luck next time eh?
[11:30] <confusious> helloooooo everybody !
[11:30] <confusious>  Hey there knome
[11:34] <confusious> okay...I'm really frazzled here...it's now 3:30 in the morn & I've been working on figuring out "how to turn off a "tool" in the gimp image manipulation program for about the last hour or so & I sure would like to go to bed now.And,my other half would like me to come to0 bed now too.She's getting very upsett aht I'm up this late again "srewing around with that comp again"
[11:36] <confusious> Can anyone PLEASE tell me how to simply "deselect" a tool that i have selected in the gimp program ? The first tool I need to know how to turn off is the "heal" tool can anyone PLEASE help me with this before I get into any more trouble with "the other half" ??
[11:42] <Hotcoral> I'm not sure what's the problem now, exept for you needing to go to bed?
[11:43] <Hotcoral> just give it up for the day
[11:44] <confusious> well,thanks hotrcoral that's some good advice & it looks like that's what I might have to do since no one seems to know the answer to my question,ay ?
[11:45] <Hotcoral> well don't u turn off a tool by choosing another one
[11:45] <Hotcoral> haven't really been using gimp that much, though
[11:46] <confusious> hmmmmmmmmm not real sure since I am kind o a newb as you might call it but see I donm't want another turned on ...actually I want them all turned off "deselected"
[11:47] <confusious> I can find lots of info on "selecting" one but not "deselecting" one
[11:48] <SiDi> confusious: if you have a tool X selected, then click on tool Y on the toolbox and tool X isnt selected anymore
[11:48] <SiDi> Don't you have your toolbox on the left side ?
[11:48] <Hotcoral> exactly :)
[11:49] <confusious> I just thought I might find someone on here that maybe was familiar with the program...wonder if I should maybe try another site ? Probably a good idea huh ? like maybe THE gimp site ? Hmmmmm don't know why I didn't think of that myself.Hmmmmmm.Thanks everybody heh heh
[11:49] <Hotcoral> uf u don't want to make changes to the photo choose zoom tool or so?
[11:49] <SiDi> confusious: i regularly use GIMP
[11:49] <Hotcoral> uf = if
[11:50] <SiDi> your question just DOESNT make sense
[11:50] <Hotcoral> I thought so, too x)
[11:50] <SiDi> You want to stop using a tool, well, select another one >.>
[11:50] <confusious> yeah sidi ?? hmm well,thanks.I'll try that but again I'm actually trying to turn off all tools since I think I have 2 turnmed on
[11:50] <SiDi> that would be a bug
[11:50] <confusious> regularly sidi ?? hm well again thank you
[11:51] <SiDi> you cant "disable" tools anyway
[11:51] <psycho_oreos> is there a way to make apt-get force install packages despite there are unmet dependencies (i.e. the files are getting overwritten and those files are part of another package)?
[11:51] <SiDi> You have the currently active tool, and the other tools, and that's all
[11:51] <confusious> ohh no thats not what I want to do
[11:51] <Hotcoral> unless of course u r selecting some colour with the picker and then choosing some tools which use colours...
[11:51] <psycho_oreos> or maybe I'll have to deal with dpkg
[11:51] <confusious> hmmmm
[11:51] <SiDi> psycho_oreos: i think you can force it with dpkg -f -i but i recommand you against breaking your packages
[11:51] <confusious> uh hhhh ohhhhhhhh dpkg ?? uhhh ohhh that sounds like trouble ha ha
[11:52] <SiDi> Hotcoral: then the picker is unselected since it's a tool :]
[11:52] <Hotcoral> well that's true, just thinking what could give the illusion of 2 tools at one go...
[11:52] <SiDi> psycho_oreos: take in consideration that apt-get and aptitude will whine afterwards and may even refuse to perform updates: )
[11:52] <psycho_oreos> SiDi, hmm thanks
[11:53] <confusious> ahhhhhhh nyes.That sounds like even more fun to edal with.Not that I don't have enough now   ha ha
[11:53] <psycho_oreos> yeah I was thinking how two packages share the same file, that would be a headache lol
[11:53] <SiDi> psycho_oreos: what is the problem exactly ?
[11:54] <confusious> okay folks....I think I gonna go shower & maybe hit the sack now & try this another way in a few more hours
[11:54] <Hotcoral> good night, though it's afternoon here :)
[11:54] <confusious> oh yeah time to go...the boss has arisen I'm in trouble now
[11:55] <psycho_oreos> SiDi, not xubuntu specific I'm afraid, just some files like /usr/lib/libGL.so and /opt/kde3/share/applications/external/snmpcheck.desktop are going to be overwritten by other packages
[11:55] <confusious> ya'll have a fantastic day...much peace & happiness to all of ou
[11:55] <confusious> you
[11:55] <SiDi> confusious: cheers
[11:55] <confusious> nighty-night
[11:55] <SiDi> psycho_oreos: but why a package would want to overwrite them ?
[11:56] <SiDi> it sounds to me like this package embeds libs it's not responsible of
[11:57] <psycho_oreos> SIDi I'm assuming both are meta packages.. these are two different video chipset drivers that I'm trying to get both installed so that they will work as livedvd image.. yes I'm literally making a livedvd image of some other distro with updated stuff
[11:58] <SiDi> oh
[11:59] <SiDi> well you shouldnt have them both installed on a live CD :/ I think you should have mesa installed and the other ones available to users when they install the distro :/
[11:59] <psycho_oreos> problem is I can't uninstall it lol, apt-get now complains about a video driver and the other is snmpcheck
[16:59] <Hetor`> Hi, does anybody know how to allow any user to run the X server?
[18:39] <gorgut> ok. Im about to pull my hair out with this. My laptop randomly can't detect eth0 anymore.
[18:40] <gorgut> some boots, it will work normally then eventually freeze, and the some boots it will not detect eth0 at all and i can never get it to find it again
[18:41] <gorgut> anyone have any ideas where to even start looking for a reason behind this?
[18:41] <jogging_jon> did you try ifconfig?
[18:42] <gorgut> jogging_jon, yeah, ifconfig -a doesnt even show it in the list on the times it decides not to detect it
[18:42] <gorgut> and im wondering if it's a hardware issue, because it's hit and miss like this even in a live CD/ live USB
[18:43] <jogging_jon> it could be possible.
[18:50] <gorgut__> ok
[18:50] <gorgut__> it dropped eth0
[18:50] <gorgut__> had to reboot (luckily it decided to detect the interface this time)
[18:51] <jogging_jon> what interface is it using now?
[18:51] <gorgut__> eth0
[18:51] <gorgut__> it's like the link dropped
[18:52] <gorgut__> the NetworkManager icon still showed it as connected, but I couldnt ping out or anything
[18:52] <gorgut__> so, i ifconfig'ed it down, and ifconfig'ed it back up
[18:52] <gorgut__> whenever i tried to bring it back up, it still showed it as disconnected and dmesg said "link not ready"
[18:55] <jogging_jon> I have no idea what is happening to you.
[18:56] <gorgut> damn
[18:56] <gorgut> whole computer froze that time
[18:56] <gorgut> i booted to a live USB.... maybe it'll be more stable. In the good news department, I'm 3 for 3 on getting eth0 back at boot.
[18:58] <gorgut> my install is xubuntu 9.04
[18:59] <jogging_jon> if you can use it with the live usb, its not a hardware problem.
[20:13] <chad_> does anyone know how to change the clock appelet to show 12 hour time instead of 24?
[20:15] <chad_> I know it can be done with LCD appearance but would like to customize Digital appearance to show 12 hour time
[20:23] <chad_> figured it out (%I:%M %p)
