| ubottu | Sertse: Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 00:40 |
| Sertse | anyone know how to create an open in root custom action ? | 00:40 |
| likemindead | In *buntu, you need to use sudo to gain root access, Sertse. | 00:42 |
| likemindead | !sudo | 00:42 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 00:42 |
| violet523 | been trying to get opengl working with my nvidia geforce fx 5200 and although /var/log/Xorg.0.log is showing no problems, gdm seems to lock up at a blank screen | 00:52 |
| Ochian | 02:11 | |
| ubottu | pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/okular/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source) | 02:11 |
| Ochian | Awesome, but how do I read it in Firefox? I'm tired of having to open the files separately. | 02:12 |
| Scutum | hello, what is the default keymap file that runs on xubuntu? | 05:13 |
| nic1 | Hi, wat is XPending? | 05:23 |
| Scutum | where can I find it?? | 05:26 |
| Scutum | how can I choose a keymap? | 05:29 |
| Sysi | in my menu → settings is keyboard layout, or something like that | 05:46 |
| Sysi | you propably could also modify xorg.conf | 05:47 |
| ruslan_ | could anyone help me set up the extra drive i have connected to my server running ubuntu | 05:54 |
| Sysi | ruslan_: have you tried #ubuntu-server ? | 05:58 |
| Balsaq | will a dimension 8250 with 2.4g 512 256 60hd be able to run xubuntu properly? | 05:58 |
| Sysi | that's pretty powerful for xubuntu :P | 05:59 |
| Balsaq | well i was worried about the ram..the rest looks good | 05:59 |
| Balsaq | 256 | 05:59 |
| Balsaq | is the 512 cache sort of like a lilextra ram? | 06:00 |
| Sysi | i had 256 with hardy and it was good | 06:00 |
| Sysi | but newer's may are bit less light | 06:01 |
| Balsaq | i can tbelieve this thing was ordered with a 2.4 proc and only 256 ram? well are you good at the install of xubu, i want to throw in this beast right now | 06:01 |
| Balsaq | the hd is empy was wiped clean | 06:02 |
| Sysi | 256mb was much "in the old days" :) | 06:02 |
| Balsaq | this one is out of a local business was ordered in 93' | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | inside it is clean no dust? | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | just got it | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | 2slots open for ram too | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | sysi are you good on the install of xubu | 06:04 |
| Sysi | it's easy | 06:04 |
| Sysi | and there are good instructions | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | yeah i did my 1st ubu a couple weeks ago but i was in here getting some help too | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | maybe it goes in exactly like ubu | 06:05 |
| Sysi | if you just want xubuntu there and nothing special there's nothing complicated | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | well just and internet runner for now...may worry about other stuff later | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | they gave me an xp disc but what in the heck can ya do with xp on 256ram | 06:07 |
| Balsaq | or maybe when ya dont have ram it just runs on the processor and the HD? | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | actually it doent have a moden | 06:09 |
| Sysi | i've used xp with 256 but it's nightmere nowdays | 06:09 |
| Balsaq | i think she;ll run better on xubu dont you | 06:09 |
| Sysi | veery much | 06:10 |
| Balsaq | have to get an ethernet cord to go online but could still instaLL IT RIGHT | 06:10 |
| Balsaq | wonder if these old timer can be wireless | 06:12 |
| Balsaq | i looked at the service tag info at dell.com and i dont see how it can even be connected to the internet? | 06:25 |
| Balsaq | no ehternet card or 10/100 thing on the specs at dell/ isnt that standard? | 06:26 |
| Balsaq | sysi are you good with hardware | 06:35 |
| _Pete_ | Balsaq: ever thinked coming good yourself? | 06:38 |
| _Pete_ | instead asking what others know why dont you learn yourself? | 06:38 |
| Balsaq | well Pete i just opened it up right here in front of me and there is nothinginher that i can see that would allow me to hook to the internet | 06:39 |
| Balsaq | if you prefer a silent room just let me know, not a problem, just making conversation while i try to figure this beast out | 06:42 |
| _Pete_ | :) | 06:47 |
| Balsaq | _Techie_ these puters turned out to be 2.4's | 07:18 |
| _Techie_ | not bad | 07:18 |
| Balsaq | doesnt say D on the sevrice tag thing at dell like yours though? | 07:19 |
| Balsaq | cant tell what they are doesnt say p4 either | 07:19 |
| _Techie_ | there should be a sticker on the back with the model number | 07:20 |
| Balsaq | if i give you the service tag will you look at the specs dell publishes...i am looking at it now | 07:20 |
| _Techie_ | that will tell you what to look for if you want to find the specs | 07:20 |
| _Techie_ | yep | 07:20 |
| Balsaq | 72mq821....5 are just like this one and one is different | 07:21 |
| Balsaq | i have been studying it for an hour | 07:21 |
| _Techie_ | umm, service tag is different from model number | 07:21 |
| Balsaq | i dont even see the internet connectors on it | 07:21 |
| Balsaq | oh its an 8250 | 07:22 |
| _Techie_ | k | 07:22 |
| Balsaq | but that tagat dell . com will get you it particular config | 07:22 |
| _Techie_ | dell dimenion 8250, or inspiron? | 07:22 |
| Balsaq | d d 8250 yes | 07:22 |
| Balsaq | that tag wil l give you this exact puters specs as the company ordered it | 07:22 |
| Balsaq | i wrote it all down | 07:23 |
| _Techie_ | are you able too ship one overseas | 07:24 |
| Balsaq | yeah but the shipping would be more than the value would cost ya a fortune i think | 07:25 |
| _Techie_ | bugger, coz i could upgrade one of those cheaply | 07:25 |
| Balsaq | well check the shipping somehow they weigh 28lbs | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | got 6 monitors too | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | but they are not the new flat ones | 07:26 |
| Balsaq | go to dell click support see where you put in the service tag and see what these are...fat ones | 07:27 |
| Balsaq | but no ram??//only 256 i think | 07:27 |
| _Techie_ | thats alright, ddr2 is cheap enough | 07:27 |
| Balsaq | you forgot it rdram | 07:28 |
| Balsaq | do you know how to look at the service code thing at dell? | 07:28 |
| Balsaq | these open up like a huge clam shell | 07:28 |
| _Techie_ | im gonna have to go now, gonna watch some movies with mates | 07:29 |
| _Techie_ | and im gonna run out of battery | 07:29 |

| MrKassner | I'm kinda new to IRC so I don't really know what I'm doing. Lol. But is anyone here? As far as I know I'm in the Xubuntu channel. | 10:14 |
| knome | MrKassner, yes. | 10:15 |
| MrKassner | Ah okay, been awhile since I was on IRC, and this program is diffrent then the last one I used so I'm having to learn allover again. Kinda quiet in here. I was hoping to find someone here to help me with a problem on Xubuntu. | 10:16 |
| ablomen | MrKassner, if you ask your question someone might be able to help :) | 10:17 |
| MrKassner | Well, it seems that my one problem I'm having no one can answer, very long story short I have a laptop that I'm using for a network bridge and nothing else on Windows 7, only problem is the laptop would overheat/freeze after a few days if not restarted, so I wanted to try making a network bridge on Xubuntu, and after trying for over a week with forums and looking on Google, still no one can tell me how to make a simple network | 10:19 |
| knome | MrKassner, you mean sharing network from the xubuntu pc? | 10:20 |
| MrKassner | I've tried Firestarter firewall, it woulden't work, installed bridge-utils but no one could tell me how to use it, and a bunch of other stuff, but no luck. | 10:20 |
| MrKassner | Yes. | 10:20 |
| MrKassner | I'm not a complete noob with Linux, but I am still rather new. | 10:21 |
| knome | MrKassner, at least there is this one thread where this is solved: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370&highlight=share+internet | 10:21 |
| MrKassner | Thank you for the link, I will go try this real quick, which will take me offline for a lil, when I get back I'll tell you how it went. Thanks again | 10:25 |

| SidGBF | hi all | 13:02 |
| SidGBF | Does eeeXubuntu still exists? | 13:04 |
| knome | SidGBF, install xubuntu and use the array.org kernel == eeexubuntu | 13:06 |
| SidGBF | knome: See... I don't have any idea about what are you talking. | 13:08 |
| knome | SidGBF, i don't know if the literal "eeexubuntu" still exists, but if you install the default xubuntu and use the array.org kernel repository (see http://array.org/ubuntu/), it is practically the same as the literal "eeexubuntu" | 13:09 |
| SidGBF | What I was looking for was a xfce os, but I want to know if that netbook launcher works with it | 13:10 |
| knome | SidGBF, "netbook launcher" == ? | 13:11 |
| SidGBF | http://users.jyu.fi/~esheospo/random/netbook_launcher_problem.png | 13:11 |
| knome | SidGBF, there is always the ubuntu netbook remix. | 13:12 |
| knome | SidGBF, also i suppose the same packages that are used in UNR will work with xubuntu | 13:12 |
| knome | SidGBF, i'm not sure though. | 13:12 |
| pingo- | hi | 17:19 |
| Pres-Gas | Hey there pingo- | 17:20 |
| pingo- | im with a problem to mount .iso images. | 17:20 |
| pingo- | i get a error 'wrong fs type ,,, ' | 17:20 |
| pingo- | im using Gmount-iso | 17:21 |
| pingo- | I tried to use gisomount | 17:21 |
| pingo- | it's says that isnt a .iso file | 17:22 |
| pingo- | can you help me? | 17:23 |
| Pres-Gas | Is it one of the *ubu isos? | 17:24 |
| Pres-Gas | pingo-, have you done an md5sum on it to make sure it is okay? | 17:26 |
| pingo- | yes | 17:26 |
| pingo- | this .iso | 17:26 |
| * genii thinks about udf vs iso9660 | 17:27 | |
| pingo- | this file I mean, I use it in windows, no problems. | 17:27 |
| Pres-Gas | What version of *ubu are you running, pingo-? | 17:28 |
| pingo- | 8.04 | 17:29 |
| Pres-Gas | pingo-, can you mount it with something like (in the terminal) "mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mountpoint"? | 17:35 |
| Pres-Gas | Put sudo in front of that | 17:35 |
| pingo- | 2 secs. | 17:36 |
| Pres-Gas | If that does not work...see if "sudo mount -o loop -t udf /path/to/file.iso /path/to/mountpoint". | 17:36 |
| pingo- | yup, 'mount -o loop -t udf /path....' worked!!! | 17:39 |
| pingo- | thanks!! | 17:39 |
| pingo- | :) | 17:39 |
| pingo- | :) | 17:39 |
| Pres-Gas | Okay...like genii implied udf was better, but your utility does not support it | 17:39 |
| Pres-Gas | pingo-, you may also want to look into fuse and see what is available with iso files there | 17:40 |
| Pres-Gas | !fuse | 17:40 |
| ubottu | FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE. Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems | 17:40 |
