| baudsmoke | woah | 00:17 |
| rr72 | baudsmoke~ is gigolo working properly for you in 9.10? | 00:17 |
| baudsmoke | what is gigolo? | 00:18 |
| rr72 | filesystem mounter | 00:18 |
| rr72 | mostly remote places. | 00:19 |
| baudsmoke | yep, looks good | 00:19 |
| rr72 | you don't get unsupported typ errors? | 00:19 |
| rr72 | *type | 00:19 |
| baudsmoke | not at all. I only have local disc's though | 00:19 |
| rr72 | and you can mount samba and sftp? | 00:19 |
| rr72 | oh, the remote part is what I am having trouble with | 00:20 |
| baudsmoke | I added an ftp server however when I double click the new icon nothing happens | 00:22 |
| rr72 | ok thankyou, it is not just me | 00:22 |
| baudsmoke | I found a terminal gvfs-open: ftp://baudsmoke@ftp.shaw.ca/: error opening location: No application is registered as handling this file | 00:23 |
| rr72 | sound like a bug to you? EXACT same thing for sft/ssh and samba | 00:23 |
| rr72 | sftp* | 00:23 |
| baudsmoke | using 'locate gigolo' doesnt show any configuration | 00:25 |
| rr72 | so like an unfinished package or something? | 00:25 |
| baudsmoke | I was thinking I could find something in the /etc/ folder | 00:35 |

| longtime | I was wondering if anyone would be able to point me in the direction of a set of instructions that would allow me to fine tune a Xubuntu machine I just set up. The machine is an old dell with an Intel Celeron 3 processor, running at 1.1ghz. I maxed out the ram at 512 mb. I'm just looking to clean things up a bit, get rid of any unnecessary processes, tweak it for speed and agility. | 04:05 |
| longtime | Start my own Gentoo tarball you say? | 04:08 |
| longtime | Kinda what I thought. :-) | 04:08 |
| rr72 | baudsmoke~ issue with debian prolly | 05:19 |
| rr72 | or xfce cores | 05:19 |
| Balsaq | yo techie! | 05:53 |
| techie | hello bal | 05:53 |
| Balsaq | 42 seconds from computer off to the internet | 05:54 |
| techie | cool | 05:54 |
| Balsaq | yeah huh...the old one with ubub was 3;30 sec | 05:54 |
| Balsaq | so wassup....what are you tearin up this AM? | 05:55 |
| techie | compiz | 05:56 |
| Balsaq | knome gave me a cool terminal command and now the vids play perfect | 05:56 |
| techie | what was the command? | 05:57 |
| Balsaq | its a nvidia nv17 geforce mx420 in here | 05:57 |
| Balsaq | oh let me find it... | 05:57 |
| Balsaq | sudo apt-get install flash plugin-non free i believe | 05:58 |
| Balsaq | lit the whole screnn up when i put that on there | 05:58 |
| Balsaq | screen* | 05:58 |
| Balsaq | see what happened was, the istall button was not available too me at adode on a fresh instal, becasue the 6 million updates hadn't hit yet, when i took them i went to adobe again, then the install button was there but i took linux.deb or something like that, then did the command after all that | 06:00 |
| techie | kk | 06:00 |
| Balsaq | in the end it wasnt the ubu 810 | 06:00 |
| Balsaq | i forget why i clicked the linux one but it had a word a code i liked | 06:01 |
| techie | so, now that you have a good computer and ubuntu... whats next? | 06:01 |
| Balsaq | puppy | 06:01 |
| techie | i mean on that system | 06:02 |
| Balsaq | heck i dunno does everything i do now...web cam? | 06:02 |
| Balsaq | mount the big flat screen to the wall | 06:02 |
| techie | that would be sick | 06:02 |
| Balsaq | hey i got a nasty projec tfor ya if you fell like tech in me | 06:03 |
| techie | continue... | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | i threw xpprosp3 in one but need drivers and dont know how to put in the lil flash thing i got | 06:03 |
| Balsaq | cant get to the net on it until i get the drivers...got dell to giv me the list | 06:04 |
| Balsaq | need to put em in the flash and then put em inthe xp dell | 06:04 |
| Balsaq | then can fire it up | 06:04 |
| techie | yep | 06:04 |
| techie | its that simple | 06:04 |
| techie | download transfer then run | 06:04 |
| Balsaq | well i wanna erase the flash 1st | 06:04 |
| techie | once you have ethernet on it then you can download them on the xp sp3 machine | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | and iwas doin it but it wasnt playing out like dell said | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | i got a cd burner now..but only black dvds | 06:05 |
| Balsaq | blank* | 06:05 |
| techie | aww that sucks | 06:05 |
| techie | your gonna want to get a dvd burner sooner or later | 06:06 |
| techie | theyre handy | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | oh yeah real quck like maybe a few hours | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | im wtored now just outta work | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | tired* | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | not gonna strugggle till i relax for awhile | 06:06 |
| Balsaq | a guy on ebay will make me a dsc for 5.99 plus 1.99 shipping | 06:07 |
| techie | a what | 06:07 |
| Balsaq | fined tuned for my exact model with my service tag | 06:07 |
| Balsaq | a driver disc | 06:07 |
| Balsaq | like we have been talking about | 06:07 |
| techie | hes charging too much | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | true but very convenient | 06:08 |
| techie | the drivers are available for free | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | and they have to go in order | 06:08 |
| techie | not neccesarily | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | hey is my vid card any good? | 06:08 |
| techie | lemme research it | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | proly was a looonnggg time ago | 06:08 |
| Balsaq | 2003 | 06:09 |
| Balsaq | i am getting the linux command book | 06:09 |
| techie | not too bad | 06:09 |
| techie | linux command boot = man | 06:10 |
| techie | book* | 06:10 |
| Balsaq | gonna buy one after i figure which one has ALL the terminal commands | 06:10 |
| Balsaq | thats where it at......TERMINAL | 06:11 |
| techie | youll never fit them all into a book | 06:11 |
| techie | and it will never be up to date | 06:11 |
| Balsaq | cause they keep writing more | 06:11 |
| techie | your card isnt too bad, it is getting a bot on the old side but overall it should be fine for what you need | 06:12 |
| Balsaq | they'll take 2g of rdram | 06:13 |
| Balsaq | got a feeling a lot more | 06:13 |
| techie | you should have to play the RAM game | 06:13 |
| Balsaq | and each one can have 2 hard drives and 2 opticals | 06:14 |
| techie | my cel D only has 1.5g in it and it does most things i need | 06:14 |
| Balsaq | this is flying with 512? | 06:14 |
| techie | yeah | 06:14 |
| techie | you could go up to 1gig | 06:14 |
| Balsaq | will soon | 06:14 |
| techie | maybe a bit more, but anything higher wont really be used | 06:15 |
| Balsaq | actually this model uses the 1066 speed ram so it says only 1.5 | 06:15 |
| Balsaq | the 8200 can do 2g but its 800 speed | 06:15 |
| techie | better than mine | 06:15 |
| techie | 400 | 06:15 |
| techie | clocked down to 333 | 06:16 |
| Balsaq | the fsb is 533 | 06:16 |
| Balsaq | 400 fsb on the 8200 | 06:16 |
| techie | what socket type? | 06:16 |
| Balsaq | i dunno let me look | 06:16 |
| techie | YAY RUNESCAPE!!! | 06:17 |
| Balsaq | intel 850e? | 06:19 |
| techie | socket 478 it would seem | 06:19 |
| Balsaq | p4 R | 06:20 |
| Balsaq | cant find socket | 06:20 |
| techie | its a socket 478 | 06:22 |
| Balsaq | is that any good | 06:22 |
| Balsaq | can it be maniplulated | 06:22 |
| techie | its alright but as far for a faster processor your not gonna be able to get much faster than 3ghz without an overclock | 06:23 |
| Balsaq | it loaded xubu the other day in 22min | 06:24 |
| Balsaq | may 30 or so for xp | 06:24 |
| psycho_oreos | k | 06:24 |
| Balsaq | brb | 06:26 |
| Balsaq | debating ...do i hard wire the xp pro machine or just put a wireless adapter on it | 06:29 |
| techie | depends on what your gonna use it for and how much you want to spend | 06:30 |
| Balsaq | if i wire it i got to drill a hole in the florr and run 40ft cable... | 06:30 |
| Balsaq | floor8 | 06:30 |
| Balsaq | prolly bu the adapter | 06:30 |
| Balsaq | this one is wired in the basement | 06:31 |
| Balsaq | ccant believe i retired the 400mgz.. | 06:32 |
| techie | i gotta go, tea will be ready soon | 06:37 |
| === techie is now known as _Techie_ | ||
| Balsaq | for some reason these came with optiplex driver discs...must be there mistake | 06:37 |
| Balsaq | so i didnt put em in till i ask the IT guy | 06:37 |
| Balsaq | so what did i lose when i went with xubu...cant tell yet? | 06:40 |
| Valdrone | So I just installed ion3 on my xubuntu laptop. Now I haven't a clue how to configure the wireless, especially not on a WPA network. Can anyone help? | 06:44 |
| _Techie_ | is ion3 a network manager? | 06:56 |
| _Techie_ | oh, its a WM | 06:57 |
| _Techie_ | i would suggest using a network manager such as wicd, im not sure if it integrates with ion3 though | 06:58 |
| _Techie_ | or you may be able to use wifi-radar if wicd doesnt integrate properly | 07:00 |
| slow-motion | hi | 11:55 |
| rubenset | hi :) | 13:01 |

| rr72 | Sysi~ how do you plan on installing? network boot? | 15:44 |
| Sysi | booting from hard drive | 15:45 |
| Sysi | but fedora's grub seems dumb | 15:46 |
| rr72 | interesting, care explaining a little? Maybe i do know what you are talking about but am blanking right now or don't know how to explain my random thoughts(as usual) lol | 15:47 |
| rr72 | !enter > me | 15:47 |
| ubottu | rr72, please see my private message | 15:47 |
| Sysi | i've extracted .iso to hard disk partition | 15:48 |
| Sysi | pxe images didn't work | 15:49 |
| rr72 | gotcha | 15:49 |
| Sysi | of course there's netbook but that need to be stable for school | 15:52 |
| rr72 | pshaw, school requires dozers | 15:52 |
| Sysi | i like fedora but xdmcp seems easier with ubuntu | 15:52 |
| juggle | Hi y'all...can Xubuntu be shipped free outside US? | 17:07 |
| nikolam | juggle, where you live? | 17:14 |
| juggle | nikolam:East Africa | 17:14 |
| nikolam | juggle, I think that Ubuntu is shipped worldwide | 17:14 |
| nikolam | After recieving ubuntu cd , yuu can install xubuntu packages ono top of it | 17:15 |
| nikolam | apply for recieving ubuntu cd | 17:16 |
| Feline | Can someone help me: I don't know how to log in as root. I am the only user of this computer and I've just set the root password, but when I try to log in at the login screen I'm presented with the message "The system administrator can not log in from this screen." So how do I log in? | 17:16 |
| juggle | nikolam,but at their site,they say that you must pay for shipping....I can't download it | 17:16 |
| Sysi | Feline: do not login as root | 17:16 |
| nikolam | juggle shipping is free. i recieved 3 cds when i started using x/ubuntu | 17:16 |
| Sysi | that's definately unwise | 17:16 |
| nikolam | juggle, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ | 17:17 |
| Sysi | for administrating you can use su, sudo or gksudo | 17:17 |
| juggle | nikolam,for Ubuntu is free but not Xubuntu | 17:17 |
| Feline | A game I want to install says I will only get the full screen option if I install while logged in as root. Why should I not log in as root? | 17:17 |
| juggle | nikolam,that site is for Ubuntu:) | 17:18 |
| nikolam | juggle, I just explained that you can get ubuntu and then add packages to make it work like xubunut. Maybe someone near you can just write cd for you and send it for free? Contacted nearby Loco? | 17:18 |
| juggle | nikolam,http://www.xubuntu.org/get is for Xubuntu | 17:18 |
| Sysi | Feline: it isn't enough to run onlu the game as root? | 17:19 |
| Sysi | login as root is unsafe | 17:19 |
| Sysi | seen on windows | 17:19 |
| nikolam | juggle, when I started using Xubuntu, I downloaded 6.10 and 7.04 with modem. ;) | 17:19 |
| juggle | nikolam,i want to run Xubuntu on a 128 RAM pc...so i can't install UBUNTU in the first palce:-[ | 17:20 |
| Feline | Sysi: How do I run only the game as root? | 17:20 |
| juggle | nikolam,internet charges are high here...so the cd is better | 17:20 |
| nikolam | juggle, why not installing more Ram, is it SDRAM in machine? I could maybe send you one 128MB SDRAM together with that CD, DVD :) | 17:20 |
| nikolam | juggle, whaqt country are you in? :) | 17:21 |
| juggle | nikolam,Kenya:) | 17:21 |
| nikolam | juggle, Nice, what city/place? | 17:21 |
| juggle | a town called KISUMU:-D | 17:22 |
| nikolam | nice juggle | 17:22 |
| Feline | Sysi: I figured it out now. Thanks for your help! | 17:22 |
| Sysi | i'm writing too slowly.. | 17:23 |
| juggle | nikolam,i will add more RAM later :)...for now,need the OS | 17:23 |
| nikolam | Maybe you can fill in that frame and request shipping of Xubuntu CD free of shipping costs etc | 17:25 |
| nikolam | and request one desktop and one server cd of ubuntu at the same time | 17:25 |
| juggle | nikolam,i have UBUNTU:) | 17:26 |
| nikolam | ask them to send you alternate cd, since it allows installation with less ram then desktop cd | 17:26 |
| nikolam | oh, you have :) | 17:26 |
| juggle | I here that making a special | 17:26 |
| juggle | yeah | 17:26 |

| juggle | nikolam,the problem is that most apps are Microsoft W favoured | 17:47 |
| juggle | nikolam,thats why many copy it | 17:48 |
| nikolam | juggle, in that case, one can use Virtualbox and install windows XP inside X/Ubuntu | 17:49 |
| nikolam | only for those windows-loving apps | 17:50 |
| nikolam | and do all other work with X/Ubuntu :) | 17:50 |
| nikolam | Just you need more Ram. | 17:50 |
| juggle | nikolam,but i need to download other packages e.g. i can't play videos on totem | 17:51 |
| nikolam | you can search for apps on packages.ubuntu.com | 17:51 |
