[02:17] <arbir> hello
[02:17] <arbir> anybody has an excellent partition scheme in mind ? should i create /boot seperately ? or all in root ?
[02:18] <arbir> !partitions
[04:29] <MTec007> how do i set up permissions for my current user to allow full usb device access? it seems like im having permission issues
[04:30] <forces> add your user to usb group
[04:30] <MTec007> that simple? lol
[04:31] <MTec007> er i dont have a usb group
[04:32] <MTec007> i knew this wouldnt be a piece of cake.
[04:32] <forces> add to users
[04:32] <forces> add to all of them
[04:32] <forces> xD
[04:33] <forces> forces@source:~$ groups
[04:33] <forces> forces adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare
[04:34] <MTec007> i have the same groups as you + audio
[04:35] <MTec007> maybe i need to do something stupid like add myself to the root group?
[04:35] <MTec007> i need a quite a bit of usb access, its a usb PIC programmer controlled by piklab
[04:38] <forces> MTec007, in gnome you can add to group with a GUI tool
[04:38] <forces> you can select a usb support there
[04:38] <forces> xubuntu should have something similar
[04:39] <MTec007> ok
[04:40] <MTec007> well it doesnt give me anything to pick what access the group has, only lets me make a group
[04:49] <thor88> ok
[04:52] <thor88> ask question would be ok?
[04:56] <forces> yep
[04:57] <thor88> well, i'll ask and see.  Have working ubuntu sys,  added Xfce,  netbook works much better.  Leave sys alone,
[04:58] <thor88> or install for max performance.  am using burned disk right now.
[05:00] <forces> install what?
[05:01] <thor88> xubuntu without the gnome desktop.
[05:03] <thor88> even better speed without the nice but huge gnome on hard drive?
[05:03] <thor88> just a theory
[05:12] <forces> maybe
[05:12] <forces> you can try it in another partition
[05:15] <thor88> total hard space is 16 GB.  not 160, 16.  netbook speeds up with everything i've tried that limited used junk
[05:15] <thor88> unused junk, i meant
[05:26] <thor88> gotta go.  i am out of date.  this stuff used to be instant fast.  20 years ago.  command line days.
[07:20] <dennizjov> Hi guys i got a problem with xubuntu, my soundcard doesnt work with alsa but with pulseaudio it works.. And everytime i restart xubuntu i need to setup pulseaudio again, how do i set pulseaudio to default? And that it will save my changes so i doesnt mute all outgoing sounds
[07:26] <igsen> after upgrade to jaunty, i can't play games on yahoo. whereas on intrepid i can. what could be the problem?
[07:28] <igsen> !gcj
[11:09] <N-S> Good morning. I have a usbdisk using truecrypt with NTFS as filesystem. How do I force "chmod 777" or "chown myuser:users" on it so other users than myself can access/write to it? Right now it's set to 700 and myser:myuser and I can't change it.
[11:11] <N-S> Disk is automounted when enabled through Truecrypt. I haven't checked settings (sorry) in Truecrypt to see if I can loosen the security settings.
[11:12] <N-S> http://nopaste.php-q.net/250486 this is how a mount list looks.
[11:19] <bmanns> anyone know of a fast way to install xubuntu on a usb drive and run it?
[11:19] <bmanns> I've always wanted to try and appears it'd work
[11:23] <knome> !usb
[11:29] <bmanns> hmmm
[11:29] <bmanns> too sleepy lol
[11:34] <muxfr> Hi
[11:35] <muxfr> I just installed xubuntu and I have no sound at all
[11:35] <muxfr> and it's not muted and I have audio device usage priveliges.
[11:35] <muxfr> what can be wrong?
[11:41] <bmanns> is the chip supported?
[11:42] <muxfr> not sure
[11:42] <bmanns> should of checked
[11:42] <muxfr> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[11:42] <muxfr> 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc R700 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4000 Series]
[11:42] <bmanns> get all hardware written down and google it
[11:42] <bmanns> im guessin its a laptop?
[11:43] <bmanns> just search ich9 intel audio ubuntu and look alil bit for rev 03 or 82801I
[11:43] <muxfr> yes
[11:43] <muxfr> I did, but it's not helping
[11:43] <bmanns> The ati is probably a hdmi output
[11:43] <muxfr> I've been googline for over 20 hours
[11:43] <muxfr> ya
[11:44] <bmanns> raise the audio output?
[11:44] <bmanns> "mixer"
[11:44] <muxfr> it's not muted
[11:44] <muxfr> it's up
[11:44] <bmanns> i never used xubuntu i was gonna try a usb stick tonight  but i think all xfce uses it
[11:44] <bmanns> hmm
[11:44] <bmanns> iono
[12:06] <pratz> muxfr, check the PCM level in mixer
[15:15] <aladoin> can anyone give me a tip of a file manager for xubuntu which also have ftp capability
[15:39] <_Pete_> aladoin: any shell is good
[15:40] <Ragamufin> use the dash shell
[15:42] <_Pete_> aladoin: so is it that you want to use it most easily or otherway most effciently ?
[15:43] <aladoin> _Pete_: I just tried Konqueror, did the trick, wonderful little thing
[15:45] <_Pete_> good then
[15:45] <_Pete_> I usually do all from cmdline

[20:29] <mr_cha0s> Hey guys, anyone know how to set the menu on Jaunty?
[20:31] <mr_cha0s> of course, i tried editing it through the settings, doesn't work
[20:33] <TheSheep> the menu is built out of the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications
[20:33] <TheSheep> to modify any entry, just copy the file into your home to ~/.local/share/applications and edit it
[20:34] <TheSheep> it's a tekst file

[22:02] <mr_cha0s> TheSheep: you there?
[22:05] <mr_cha0s> i'm wondering how you know what to put in .desktop files, since for instance, files in "Accessories" say 'Categories=Application;Utility'
[22:06] <mr_cha0s> the main reason i want to edit my menus is to organize all the sound stuff from ubuntu studio, breaking it down into folders beneath just 'multimedia'
[22:06] <mr_cha0s> it's disturbing to have like 40 things in one menu
[22:07] <mr_cha0s> anyone know how to create new folders in the menu?
[22:08] <mr_cha0s> or just point towards docs that work? ;
[22:08] <mr_cha0s> ;)
