=== Guest58089 is now known as th0r [02:17] hello [02:17] anybody has an excellent partition scheme in mind ? should i create /boot seperately ? or all in root ? [02:18] !partitions [02:18] For help with partitioning a new install see: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/switching/installing-partitioning.html - For partitioning programs see !GParted, !QtParted (!Kubuntu 8.10 and lower) or !PartitionManager (!Kubuntu 9.04 and up) - Other partitioning topics include !fstab !home and !swap [04:29] 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] add your user to usb group [04:30] that simple? lol [04:31] er i dont have a usb group [04:32] i knew this wouldnt be a piece of cake. [04:32] add to users [04:32] add to all of them [04:32] xD [04:33] forces@source:~$ groups [04:33] forces adm dialout cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare [04:34] i have the same groups as you + audio [04:35] maybe i need to do something stupid like add myself to the root group? [04:35] i need a quite a bit of usb access, its a usb PIC programmer controlled by piklab [04:38] MTec007, in gnome you can add to group with a GUI tool [04:38] you can select a usb support there [04:38] xubuntu should have something similar [04:39] ok [04:40] well it doesnt give me anything to pick what access the group has, only lets me make a group [04:49] ok [04:52] ask question would be ok? [04:56] yep [04:57] well, i'll ask and see. Have working ubuntu sys, added Xfce, netbook works much better. Leave sys alone, [04:58] or install for max performance. am using burned disk right now. [05:00] install what? [05:01] xubuntu without the gnome desktop. [05:03] even better speed without the nice but huge gnome on hard drive? [05:03] just a theory [05:12] maybe [05:12] you can try it in another partition [05:15] total hard space is 16 GB. not 160, 16. netbook speeds up with everything i've tried that limited used junk [05:15] unused junk, i meant [05:26] gotta go. i am out of date. this stuff used to be instant fast. 20 years ago. command line days. [07:20] 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] after upgrade to jaunty, i can't play games on yahoo. whereas on intrepid i can. what could be the problem? [07:28] !gcj [07:28] Sorry, I don't know anything about gcj [11:09] 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] 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] http://nopaste.php-q.net/250486 this is how a mount list looks. [11:19] anyone know of a fast way to install xubuntu on a usb drive and run it? [11:19] I've always wanted to try and appears it'd work [11:23] !usb [11:23] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [11:29] hmmm [11:29] too sleepy lol [11:34] Hi [11:35] I just installed xubuntu and I have no sound at all [11:35] and it's not muted and I have audio device usage priveliges. [11:35] what can be wrong? [11:41] is the chip supported? [11:42] not sure [11:42] should of checked [11:42] 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) [11:42] 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc R700 Audio Device [Radeon HD 4000 Series] [11:42] get all hardware written down and google it [11:42] im guessin its a laptop? [11:43] just search ich9 intel audio ubuntu and look alil bit for rev 03 or 82801I [11:43] yes [11:43] I did, but it's not helping [11:43] The ati is probably a hdmi output [11:43] I've been googline for over 20 hours [11:43] ya [11:44] raise the audio output? [11:44] "mixer" [11:44] it's not muted [11:44] it's up [11:44] i never used xubuntu i was gonna try a usb stick tonight but i think all xfce uses it [11:44] hmm [11:44] iono [12:06] muxfr, check the PCM level in mixer [15:15] 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] 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] _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 [16:02] Hello, somone here knows anything about wvdail iam trying to get an Huawei E1550 to work [16:55] do somone know how to get a DVD TV-dongle to work with mplayer?

[20:31] of course, i tried editing it through the settings, doesn't work [20:33] the menu is built out of the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications [20:33] to modify any entry, just copy the file into your home to ~/.local/share/applications and edit it [20:34] it's a tekst file [20:34] text [20:57] SysInfo: uname: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 Distro: Unknown CPU: Genuine Intel(R) CPU T1350 @ 1.86GHz 800.000 MHz Bogomips: 3729.77 Mem: 233/495M [||||||||||] Diskspace: 54.98G Free: 48.87G Uptime: 5 hrs 35 mins 45 secs Load: 1.75 1.01 0.43 Procs: 85 Graphic: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) Screen: 1280x800 [20:57] (32 bpp) Netinfo: wlan0: In: 379.56M Out: 20.80M [20:57] sorry, wrong channel [21:47] os[Linux 2.6.30-02063002-generic i686] distro[Ubuntu "jaunty" 9.04] cpu[2 x Genuine Intel(R) CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz (GenuineIntel) @ 1000MHz] mem[Physical: 2.0GB, 74.2% free] disk[Total: 415.0GB, 44.7% free] video[Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller] sound[HDA-Intel - HDA Intel] [22:02] TheSheep: you there? [22:05] i'm wondering how you know what to put in .desktop files, since for instance, files in "Accessories" say 'Categories=Application;Utility' [22:06] 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] it's disturbing to have like 40 things in one menu [22:07] anyone know how to create new folders in the menu? [22:08] or just point towards docs that work? ; [22:08] ;) [22:56] I have a problem with an external hardrive.. when i power up my system the drive dosen't seem to power up alongside it - Is't gray in "Places". Just clicking on the drive on the drive solve this.. BUT since im using Xubuntu as a bace im my mediacenter and XBMC on top it's disturbing to have to quit XBMC every time i trart the computer to include my external hardrive.. AND my DiNovo external keyboard dosen't power u either, i have to remove the usb-don [22:56] any ideas?
