[03:40] <[Ese]> hello there! [04:00] would it be possible to run windows in some kind of virtual box program, if the windows i want to run is a partition? [04:07] i dont know much about virtual boxes but i would rather do this than boot into windows [04:46] is there a xubuntu for macs? [04:46] there's a mac laptop that i want to install xubuntu in [04:54] xsebsx, is it an intel mac? [05:02] MTec007: how do i find out? [05:02] why? i'm here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ports/releases/jaunty/release/ and i only see one option for macs [05:02] it's one of these white laptops [05:03] how would it make a difference? [05:05] i am downloading the alternate mac image just in case, is that ok? [05:06] it matters plenty [05:07] if theres an image for mac use it [05:07] but that's the only option i see? i only see that option and the mac alternate which is what i'm downloading [05:07] how do i check if it's an intel mac? [05:07] i have an amd laptop for example [05:08] but i also found this link which you may or may not need: http://lifehacker.com/256395/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-a-mac [05:08] and kubuntu works fine on it [05:08] i dont know, i dont like macs, i dont know anything about them, and i dont want to either :P [05:09] i'd say it will work if kubuntu does [05:09] but i mean what does it matter if it's intel or not? i have a non mac amd processor and it works fine [05:09] no no mine is not a mac it's an hp [05:09] but my point is: it's not intel [05:11] also, can i get effects as cool as the kde kubuntu 4 ones if i download xubuntu-desktop?

[09:42] nope, i installed gnome [09:43] as in [09:43] ubuntu [09:43] then i installed kubuntu [09:43] and then xubuntu [09:44] hm [12:51] Hmm. I've also noticed that youtube sound sometimes goes horribly wrong, and I also installed xubuntu via ubuntu and kubuntu. Think I've got too much gnome and KDE crap left around. [14:07] hello [17:25] Having xubuntu jaunty ppc problems -- installs but no sudo passwords are working, no one placed in sudoers list [17:27] I had to drop into a root shell on the hd from the rescue disk to get a working xorg.conf, might that have messed up the user situation? [18:22] Anyone else had sudoer problems? === awway is now known as lukinfore [18:52] hello chan [18:56] Is there any tools for creaing menu in xubuntu? [18:56] I'm trying to understand where NetworkManager saves the network connection settings to my wlan... but have no idea where to start, /etc/network/interfaces and similar seem to be empty :-/ [18:57] xub, Why don't you use wpa-supplicant??? [19:00] I tried weeks (literally weeks) to get my wifi card to work configuring the net via console, but nothing is working... now NetworkManager seems to be able to deal with it without problems, would be nice to know how ! [19:00] xub, iwlist scanning very useful for searcing configurations WiFi. I 'v used that for make wpa-supplicant work [19:02] xub, you can find out more information there http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 [19:04] thanks for the link, already tried that :-( [19:04] and how can iwlist help ? :-/ [19:05] and BTW, if networkmanager is able to reconnect after it's being stopped and started again, it means it has to store that info somewhere.... !! [19:05] xub, iwlist will tell you options for wpa-supplicant. [19:06] Besogon: thanks, but you're not really helping... lol [19:09] xub, what Wifi do you actually have? (WEP, WPA-PSK may be, I made one wpa-psk connection) To concern the iwlist: iwlist will get to you options: group, parwise, key_mgmt... [19:13] Besogon: wpa2-psk from an eeebox [19:13] Besogon: but I still don't understand how NetworkManager stores information... [19:16] I practically raped google for information this last weeks, but nothing, apart from the gui-configuration, seems to be working ! [19:19] xub, Are your Wifi working now? If it's true then make iwlist scanning. After that let me see at it [19:24] sent :) [19:46] hey [20:21] . [20:47] guys, my headset works with everything i can think of on my (sort of) new laptop, but it doesn't work with skype, any ideas for troubleshooting? [20:50] actually, not just the headset, if i disconnect the headset, i still don't get any skype sound from speakers either [21:17] !skype [21:17] To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [23:33] The_Sheep: i tried every setting i could find from the skype support page you gave me, but nothing works in the end... i had several times success testing the audio input outside of skype, but when i tested within skype it faild ... arrrrggghhhh... [23:33] cigarette break, go clear my head ... brb [23:52] don't know what the problem could be. i tried removing pulseaudio and installing esound, but then i got no sound in any configuration i tried, so i reinstalled pulseaudio ... [23:54] when I reboot my 9.04 system, the sound is always muted. is there a way to keep this from happening?
