=== ubott2 is now known as ubottu [19:04] Hello. I'm trying to use two monitors to display my desktop, but I only see "Screen 1" in the XFCE display settings. [19:05] have you logged out and back in? [19:05] Several times. [19:05] what video card? [19:05] Intel X3100 GMA [19:07] I 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. [19:08] I don't have an xorg.conf file, either. X.org is apparently running on autopilot. [19:09] (...and I should probably mention that I'm using 9.10 beta. But I had this issue with 9.04 as well.) [19:21] What 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? [20:20] need help: my system doesn't display "network" when i click "places". why? === [0 is now known as hello7 [21:32] Where can I get list of packages included in Xubuntu default installation? [22:32] The screen brightness control in "Power management" does not work. I'm using an ASUS Laptop (M70sa) [23:34] I'm new to ubuntu so I do not know what part of Xubuntu takes care of this. What controls the screen brightness? [23:35] how do i enable desktop effects with compiz [23:35] masterfu, install the compiz packages, go to the terminal and enter "compiz --replace" [23:37] and how do i upgrade to xubuntu 9.04 with 4gb of hard disk space? [23:38] masterfu, reformulate your question. what exactly is the problem with 4gb of hdd space? [23:39] i have 8.10 now, upgraded from 8.04 before [23:39] but now i want go to 9.04 [23:39] but it wont upgrade because the update manager says i have not enought space [23:40] 1.15gb space left and xubuntu needs 1.5 gb space i think [23:40] right, so you have a total of 4gb but only 1.15 of it is free? [23:40] yep [23:41] my laptop total hard disk space is 40 gb [23:41] but i give 32 gb to windows [23:41] and i give xubuntu 4gb [23:41] so is there no way you could release 500mb for the upgrade? (like: temporarily move stuff to external media) [23:41] today i upgraded to 8.10 from 8.04, and now i tried to go to 9.04 [23:42] i dont know how i m new to this OS [23:43] well if you haven't made many changes to the system you could just as well do a fresh install of 9.04 [23:43] that means i have to backup stuff in my windows partition right? [23:44] cause the best way to duel boot windows and xubuntu is reformat my whole harddisk [23:44] no, you can just do a fresh install of xubuntu 9.04 on that partition where 8.10 resides now. the rest wouldn't be touched [23:44] why would you reformat your whole harddisk? [23:45] i tried to just install xubuntu on my ex3 partition [23:45] but i want to keep all my data fom the old install [23:46] also my harddisk seems to have problems when i clean out the ex3 paritition [23:47] sry, you have to be more specific ("problems" - what problems? etc) [23:47] its a laptop i brought in 2006 [23:47] and my hard disk seems to be corrupted for unknown reasons [23:48] well, you can always back up your data and reformat the whole drive [23:48] maybe that helps with the corruption issues [23:48] when i reformat the ex3 partition, it cleans the xubuntu installation and wont let me install a new system again [23:49] but anyways i gotta go now, hopefully there's someone else here who can help you [23:49] ok thx [23:49] bye [23:49] bye
