[11:23] <Besogon> why my sound does turn off when I'v just boot computer? Does anybody face with it?
[11:24] <Besogon> why my sound does turn off when I'v just boot computer? Does anybody face with it?
[11:25] <Sysi> many have same problem
[11:25] <Carnophage> Besogon: sound isn't really off or the icon in the panel just doesn't say it's off?
[11:26] <Sysi> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/352732
[11:27] <Besogon> Carnophage, I can appear sound only with xfce4-mixer. (sound is really off)
[11:27] <Besogon> Sysi, I will see you have given
[11:28] <Carnophage> Besogon: hmm so I have a different problem then, my sound is ok but the icon in the panel, always after reboot or fresh start says that the sound is on
[11:32] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: Run "sudo alsactl init" in the terminal.
[11:34] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, OK. I'v just done that. What now?
[11:34] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: Sounds working?
[11:35] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, yes. But I have to reboot for check if it works after boot.
[11:36] <leaf-sheep> Boot away.
[11:40] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: How is it going?
[11:40] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, hmm.. "alsactl init" can swich on the sound, but after boot sound steel is off...
[11:41] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: You had to do the command again?
[11:41] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, yes
[11:42] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, It writes me this
[11:42] <Besogon> Unknown hardware: "VIA686A" "Realtek ALC200,200P rev 0" "AC97a:414c4710" "" ""
[11:42] <Besogon> Hardware is initialized using a guess method
[11:42] <leaf-sheep> That's normal.
[11:42] <leaf-sheep> I guess -- Do try --> sudo alsactl init ; sudo alsactl store
[11:42] <leaf-sheep> It'll store in a profile.
[11:43] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, At the time, gnome works fine
[11:43] <Besogon> ok. I will try
[11:43] <leaf-sheep> Also, do "alsamixer" and regulate all bars high.  See any "blue/gray M" -- Toggle 'm' to unmute to "green 00"
[11:43] <leaf-sheep> Then do the "sudo alsactl store" again to store.
[11:43] <leaf-sheep> ESC to save out.
[11:44] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: You want to try #ubuntu -- more traffic than KDE/X -- but some of them does use X.  I'm going to take my puppy out for a morning walk. Bye. :o  Let me know the results too. ;)
[11:45] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, ok
[12:04] <leaf-sheep> Besogon: Sup?
[12:07] <Besogon> leaf-sheep, not works. Im reading https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/352732
[13:06] <csioktel> Anyone know, which mirrior can download xubuntu 9.10beta near HongKong?
[15:07] <bodger> Hello, am trying to setup a wireless card. It's a Belkin PCMCIA, have installed the drivers correctly with ndiswrapper (wlan0 appears in `iwconfig`)
[15:08] <bodger> out router is detected in network applet but is greyed out
[15:08] <bodger> any ideas why?
[15:09] <bodger> `lwlist scan` also shows the essid of the router
[16:33] <likemindead> If I installed Xubuntu 9.10 when it was Alpha 6 and I run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" will I have, essentially, the 9.10 Beta release?
[16:33] <likemindead> Or is there a difference?
[16:33] <Sysi> no, you don't need dist upgrade
[16:34] <likemindead> Oh?
[16:34] <Sysi> just install updates normally
[16:34] <likemindead> Same as a fresh Beta install?
[16:34] <likemindead> When all is said and done?
[16:34] <Sysi> you end up with exatly same OS
[16:35] <likemindead> That's what I thought. Thanks!
[17:19] <Ido_> Guys, I tried installing Samba and I still can't understand the guide...I mean what the hell is mountname and all those...can someone help please?
[17:27] <SiDi> Ido_: hiya
[17:27] <SiDi> may you post the guide here so i can see what you are having trouble with ?
[17:36] <Ido_> Err... wait
[17:36] <Ido_> !samba
[17:36] <Ido_> I think the second one
[17:37] <Ido_> No, here's the one I used:
[17:37] <Ido_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[17:42] <z00q> NE1 here?
[17:45] <TheSheep> !u | z00q
[17:46] <z00q> Is anyone here?
[17:46] <Sysi> of course not, irc is dead
[17:46] <TheSheep> nobody is here
[17:48] <z00q> Heh heh. I have been away from irc for ten years. Just got out of prison. Please excuse any social lapses on my part.
[17:48] <TheSheep> if you need help with any problem, justask your question and if anybody knows the answer, they will respond
[17:49] <TheSheep> also, stick around, many people look at the channel from time to time and may answer you after an hour or something like that
[17:50] <z00q> Well, I have a Compaq Armada E500. 256 mg RAM, 700MHZ Processor. I am trying to install xubuntu from cd but keep getting a seg fault error and the machine freezzes. Am I wrong to assume that a seg fault error is related to a memory problem?
[17:52] <TheSheep> it may be
[17:52] <TheSheep> are you using the livecd?
[17:52] <z00q> Yes.
[17:52] <TheSheep> on low-ram systems it's better to use the alternate cd, it needs much less ram to work
[17:52] <TheSheep> it installs exactly the same system
[17:52] <TheSheep> just with a text-based installer
[17:53] <slow-motion> hi
[17:54] <z00q> Well, I don't currently have a cd burner. These are the disks from On-Disk.com.
[17:54] <slow-motion> how do i get my partly downloaded torrents back in transmission?
[17:55] <TheSheep> z00q: that's a laptop?
[17:55] <z00q> Is there a way to use unetbootin to do the install?
[17:55] <z00q> Yes. It is a laptop.
[17:55] <TheSheep> slow-motion: just open them in transmission, and tell it to save them in the same place
[17:55] <slow-motion> ok, thx
[17:55] <TheSheep> slow-motion: it will check the existing files for bad parts and download only those
[17:56] <slow-motion> i see
[17:56] <slow-motion> i solved my problem that i can't open xvid encoded videos that i had some days ago
[17:56] <slow-motion> i just installed vlc
[17:57] <TheSheep> z00q: hmm... you don't have to use a cd...
[17:57] <TheSheep> !install
[18:05] <z00q> I am using bandwidth @ a public library. IT won't let me access the tinyurl address.
[18:05] <z00q> That's ironic.....
[18:06] <slow-motion> TheSheep thank you. it worked
[18:06] <z00q> brb....
[18:06] <slow-motion> i'm still impressed how powerful a small tool like transmission is
[18:11] <SiDi> haha, it is indeed
[18:12] <SiDi> Ido_: still around ? Sorry i forgot you :x
[18:30] <webbb82> Is there a way to drag and drop apps into the panel in gnome you can is there a way in xfce
[18:30] <knome> webbb82, no, you can't do that in xfce.
[18:31] <webbb82> you have youj do the "add launcher deal
[18:31] <knome> yes, you have to use "add launcher"
[18:44] <z00q> Well, TheSheep, it appears that the seg fault is happening as the hardware drivers are being loaded. This is the last message before the seg fault: udevd_event [2518]: 'path_id/devices/i8042/serio4/input5/mouse2' abnormal exit
[18:46] <webbb82> i got a weird thing with my panel its shaded a dark grey untill i move the mouse over it then it will turn light grey untill i move the mouse off it then it goes back to dark grey
[18:50] <TheSheep> webbb82: right click, select 'customize panel' and uncheck the 'make active panel opaque' checkbox
[18:50] <TheSheep> webbb82: btw, you can drag into the list into the 'add launcher'
[19:38] <Serraphyn> Is there a way to install xubuntu off pen drive? I don't want to d/l a dvd and I'm out of CDRW disks
[19:39] <Sysi> are you on windows?
[19:39] <Serraphyn> kubuntu right now
[19:39] <Sysi> or linux or what
[19:40] <Sysi> you can switch it to xubuntu by installing "xubuntu-desktop"
[19:40] <Serraphyn> K, hope that fixes my sound problems
[19:41] <Serraphyn> only tried kubuntu cause some folks said it was nicer, but its just clunky to me compared to xfce
[19:42] <Serraphyn> And its sound is all borked
[19:42] <Sysi> i also prefet xfce over kde
[19:43] <Serraphyn> its just cleaner eh? People ask me why and I'm like it kinda like shotgun vs a rifle, both kill ones just cleaner
[19:44] <Sysi> there just isn't everything on kde
[19:44] <Serraphyn> yeah, my server uses xfce4 for a desktop
[19:44] <Sysi> like that scrolling on desktop changes workspace, you won't get xubuntu to stop in last one
[19:45] <Sysi> *kubuntu
[19:45] <Sysi> if i remember right, its also impossible with gnome
[19:47] <Serraphyn> umm the install is done on xubuntu-desktop do I just reboot?
[19:48] <Serraphyn> or do the /etc/init.d/kdm stop and restart with gdm?
[19:49] <Serraphyn> Sorry if I'm kinda half smart mostly retarded sounding, I probably know to much of not enough of linux even though I'ved used it for 12 years
[19:49] <Sysi> log out, and select "xfce" tosession type
[19:49] <Serraphyn> k brb
[19:57] <Serraphyn> GOD I LOVE XFCE
[19:57] <nikolam> :)
[19:57] <Serraphyn> the panels and everyting else are so easy to setup
[19:57] <nikolam> me thinking the same exactly
[19:58] <Sysi> that's why we are here :)
[19:58] <darkham> hi, how can browse the windows share (i set without password) ubuntu like?
[19:59] <Serraphyn> smbtree?
[19:59] <nikolam> nautilus?
[20:00] <Serraphyn> sorry I'm cli so much I forget the names of things like that
[20:00] <Serraphyn> now I'm trying to figure out why cedega refuses to see my video card correctly
[20:00] <darkham> i don't wanted install it
[20:00] <darkham> nautilus i mena
[20:00] <darkham> mean
[20:01] <Serraphyn> darkham, then try at CLI using >smbtree
[20:01] <darkham> yes, i typed it, i wathc my shares, but how can i browse?
[20:02] <Serraphyn> the files you mean?
[20:02] <Serraphyn> might look up SMBMOUNT
[20:02] <darkham> yes, the files
[20:02] <darkham> ok
[20:03] <Serraphyn> or how to setup the mount to use samba shares(windows shares)
[20:03] <Serraphyn> One sec I'll find you a good tut
[20:03] <Serraphyn> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[20:04] <darkham> Serraphyn, thanx, very friendly :)
[20:04] <Serraphyn> np, I love to help out when I can, god knows I ask enough for it ;)
[20:06] <Serraphyn> bbiab, spouse aggro
[20:18] <darkham> how can i watch the UNC name of the folder shares?
[20:29] <darkham> i installed nautilus for sharing samba shares
[20:29] <darkham> but it don't open it
[20:32] <likemindead> Sorry, darkham, I don't know Samba. :-\
[20:32] <likemindead> !Samba
[20:37] <likemindead> Either of those links help, darkham?
[20:38] <darkham> likemindead, yes, i solved, thanx !
[20:38] <likemindead> :-)
[22:18] <z00q> Well, I guess it is about time to take the install cds and put them in the micorwave and forget about gettnig this distro to install on my laptop. Or I could go for the post office option.........
[22:19] <likemindead> ...?
[22:20] <durt> z00q, what, you can't get it to burn right?
[22:21] <z00q> I can't burn anything....I have a very old laptop and I bought the cds from on-disk.
[22:21] <z00q> 9.04 does not like my laptop at all....
[22:21] <z00q> Can't even install it inside of windows...
[22:21] <durt> so it won't boot? it won't install, what happens?
[22:22] <z00q> Well, during the install, even with acpi=off it crashes when it starts loading the devices drivers
[22:22] <likemindead> I'm running Xubuntu on a 7-year-old PIII laptop. :-)
[22:23] <z00q> I tried unetbootin and get the same problem.
[22:23] <z00q> So I tried WUBI and I get a permission denied error and the install locks down
[22:23] <likemindead> What's the hardware on your laptop?
[22:23] <z00q> So I try the live cd...
[22:24] <z00q> Piii 600 256 RAM
[22:24] <z00q> Armada e500\
[22:24] <z00q> I am at my wits end. And very frustrated...
[22:24] <z00q> Fixing just to move on to another distro.
[22:25] <z00q> Have been messing with this for 3 weeks now...
[22:26] <likemindead> Hmm. Sorry to hear that, z00q.
[22:26] <likemindead> My Dell C610 loves Xubuntu (though I am running 9.10).
[22:26] <likemindead> It's 700MHz PIII but I did up the RAM to 1GB.
[22:27] <z00q> The requirements only mention 198 meg for the install....
[22:28] <z00q> I am overlooking something somewhere....
[22:28] <likemindead> True. But that's bare minimum, just scraping by.
[22:28] <likemindead> What's the chipset?
[22:28] <z00q> Well, I have more than that
[22:28] <likemindead> Right.
[22:31] <likemindead> Try booting Puppy Linux, Damn Small Linux, &/or Knoppix, z00q.
[22:32] <z00q> I can get Absolute Linux to install but It requires too much work aftr the install to get it configured like I want it.
[22:32] <z00q> Plus it is a Slackware derivative....
[22:32] <likemindead> Right.
[22:33] <likemindead> I've installed Xubuntu on several systems, old (PII) and new (dual-core), and never had any troubles.
[22:33] <likemindead> :-\
[22:35] <z00q> When I try to install from the cd after a reboot, I get this message whiles it is loading drivers and after about a 10 wait....
[22:35] <likemindead> Ever heard of antiX, z00q? It's solid.
[22:35] <likemindead> Small & fast. Debian-based.
[22:36] <z00q> udevd_even[2518]:'path_id/devices/i8042/serio4/input5/mouse2' abnormal exit then it seg faults.
[22:36] <likemindead> Weird...
[22:36] <likemindead> I'm really sorry, z00q. That sucks.
[22:42] <z00q> is antix nly a live cd version?
[23:04] <krucks> perdonen mi ignorancia pero como instalo xfce en ubuntu hardy
[23:16] <z00q> Well, I got it to install along side windows, but it just hangs while loading the drivers....
[23:18] <z00q> One problem down...
[23:19] <z00q> Several more to go.
[23:19] <Serraphyn> You guys recommend a gui Network browser for mounting samaba shares? My kids don't like CLI :(
[23:19] <cody-somerville> Serraphyn, what version of Xubuntu do you have?
[23:19] <Serraphyn> 9.04
[23:20] <cody-somerville> Applications > System > Remote Filesystems doesn't work for you?
[23:20] <Serraphyn> rofl, sorry never seen that before I'm used to use mount -t smbfs for stuff ;)
[23:22] <Serraphyn> cody-somerville, thanks
[23:22] <cody-somerville> There is also PyNeighborhood among other apps
[23:32] <z00q> Once I have installed xubuntu with windows, are there any additional steps I need to take?
[23:33] <SiDi> uninstall windows
[23:33] <SiDi> (if you installed windows first and xubuntu second, then no, everything should be ok)
[23:33] <z00q> Heh heh. That is the goal eventually, however I am experiencing a huge amount of trouble trying to get this distro installed.
[23:34] <z00q> I had to resort to installing it within windows.
[23:34] <Sysi> with wubi you get very surely problems
[23:35] <z00q> But I don't see a launcher. Although it does show up in the add/remove software....
[23:36] <z00q> Sysi, I have tried installing from the cd but it hangs when its loading drivers and then eventually seg faults.
[23:37] <longtime> hello!
[23:38] <z00q> HI
[23:38] <z00q> bbiab
[23:40] <longtime> I was wondering how I would check to see, with the xubuntu command line, how much RAM my system is acknowledging. I installed two sticks just now that I thought were 256mb a piece. But when I go into my system bios at startup, it only registers each stick at 64mb a piece.
[23:41] <longtime> Should I just trust my bios?
