fremHello. I'm trying to use two monitors to display my desktop, but I only see "Screen 1" in the XFCE display settings.19:04
Sysihave you logged out and back in?19:05
fremSeveral times.19:05
Sysiwhat video card?19:05
fremIntel X3100 GMA19:05
fremI set different desktop wallpaper on each screen (the wallpaper manager sees both of them), and if I log in with my external monitor unplugged, I get the wallpaper for my laptop's screen. If I log in with the external monitor plugged in, it defaults to using the max resolution and wallpaper of the external monitor on both screens.19:07
fremI don't have an xorg.conf file, either. X.org is apparently running on autopilot.19:08
frem(...and I should probably mention that I'm using 9.10 beta. But I had this issue with 9.04 as well.)19:09
BesogonWhat is the decision to resolve problem "Sound turn off with boot".  I have found that my autostart had string like Exec=pactl load-module module-x11-xsmp, but my ubunntu haven't that module. Command "alsactl init" helps, but I think If it right way?19:21
furyinsaneneed help: my system doesn't display "network" when i click "places". why?20:20

masterfuhow do i enable desktop effects with compiz23:35

masterfuand how do i upgrade to xubuntu 9.04 with 4gb of hard disk space?23:37
ochosimasterfu, reformulate your question. what exactly is the problem with 4gb of hdd space?23:38
masterfui have 8.10 now, upgraded from 8.04 before23:39
masterfubut now i want go to 9.0423:39
masterfubut it wont upgrade because the update manager says i have not enought space23:39
masterfu1.15gb space left and xubuntu needs 1.5 gb space i think23:40
ochosiright, so you have a total of 4gb but only 1.15 of it is free?23:40
masterfuyep23:40
masterfumy laptop total hard disk space is 40 gb23:41
masterfubut i give 32 gb to windows23:41
masterfuand i give xubuntu 4gb23:41
ochosiso is there no way you could release 500mb for the upgrade? (like: temporarily move stuff to external media)23:41
masterfutoday i upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04, and now i tried to go to 9.0423:41
masterfui dont know how i m new to this OS23:42
ochosiwell if you haven't made many changes to the system you could just as well do a fresh install of 9.0423:43
masterfuthat means i have to backup stuff in my windows partition right?23:43
masterfucause the best way to duel boot windows and xubuntu is reformat my whole harddisk23:44
ochosino, you can just do a fresh install of xubuntu 9.04 on that partition where 8.10 resides now. the rest wouldn't be touched23:44
ochosiwhy would you reformat your whole harddisk?23:44
masterfui tried to just install xubuntu on my ex3 partition23:45
masterfubut i want to keep all my data fom the old install23:45
masterfualso my harddisk seems to have problems when i clean out the ex3 paritition23:46
ochosisry, you have to be more specific ("problems" - what problems? etc)23:47
masterfuits a laptop i brought in 200623:47
masterfuand my hard disk seems to be corrupted for unknown reasons23:47
ochosiwell, you can always back up your data and reformat the whole drive23:48
ochosimaybe that helps with the corruption issues23:48
masterfuwhen i reformat the ex3 partition, it cleans the xubuntu installation and wont let me install a new system again23:48
ochosibut anyways i gotta go now, hopefully there's someone else here who can help you23:49
