| psycho_oreos | why don't you add a new theme in instead? | 09:08 |
| ocs_ | psycho_oreos: in which way? | 09:09 |
| psycho_oreos | ocs_, Applications, System, Login Window | 09:10 |
| psycho_oreos | and add new one in | 09:10 |
| ocs_ | thanks psycho_oreos | 09:11 |
| psycho_oreos | nw | 09:17 |
| Sysi | i wonder how that can be done in karmic | 09:24 |
| heyjoe | hi, i'm trying to boot live cd of xubuntu 9.04, starts loading for a while and then blinking caps lock (i assume kernel panic), this happened after i used partimage to backup and then restore an ntfs partition, my best guess is that there is no free space left on my ext3 partition, although don't know why this would affect it, what should i do to get it to boot the live cd? | 09:49 |
| Sysi | anything on har disc shouldn't affect booting on live cd | 09:51 |
| Sysi | have you get to disc menu? | 09:51 |
| heyjoe | it's odd though, i'll try recreate the live cd | 09:52 |
| heyjoe | i get to the first menu that usually comes up (i'm able to select appropriate language) is that the one you're referring to? | 09:52 |
| heyjoe | hit return return to boot live but then kernel panic after a while | 09:52 |
| Sysi | no, the one where are installin and testing without it etc options | 09:53 |
| Sysi | well, cd can be broken or burning failed | 09:54 |
| heyjoe | it's actually off usb flash drive, will wipe it and use usb creater | 09:55 |
| Sysi | all computers can't boot from usb | 09:56 |
| Sysi | that may cause your problem | 09:56 |
| Sysi | one of mines loads the kenel and hangs there | 09:57 |
| heyjoe | i'm not sure i'm following, i have booted like this before and it has worked fine | 09:57 |
| Sysi | oh | 09:58 |
| heyjoe | no this particular netbook can boot usb, i've done it several times before | 09:59 |
| heyjoe | on the same particular flash drive | 09:59 |
| Sysi | hmm, well you can remake te image | 10:00 |
| Sysi | how did you made it bootable, with unetbootin? | 10:00 |
| benchik | hello | 10:19 |
| benchik | updated my xubuntu 8.04.3 kernel from 2.6.24-24 to 2.6.24-25 and now i have no sound. please help | 10:20 |
| _Pete_ | benchik: check volmes from (alsa)mixes | 10:25 |
| _Pete_ | mixer | 10:25 |
| benchik | hello. after upgrading 8.04.3 LTS from kernel 2.6.24-24 to 2.6.24-25 my sound isn't working. please help! | 10:35 |
| Sysi | how did you updated, with update manager? | 10:35 |
| Sysi | have you checked sound settings? | 10:35 |
| benchik | with the updater | 10:37 |
| benchik | i get an error when clicking on the icon | 10:37 |
| Sysi | what? | 10:37 |
| benchik | in settings manager i don't have sound icon at all. (only on the bar) | 10:38 |
| benchik | GStreamer was unable to detect any sound devices. Some sound system specific GStreamer packages may be missing. It may also be a permissions problem. | 10:38 |
| benchik | this is the error | 10:38 |
| benchik | when i reboot to kernel 2.6.24-24 the sound is back | 10:39 |
| Sysi | the driver changes or isn't compatible with new kernel maybe | 10:41 |
| benchik | tried to google for it, but saw only suggestions to run some also installation script. i prefer not to run external installation scripts since the might mess up xubuntu's packages system | 10:41 |
| benchik | *also=alsa | 10:41 |
| benchik | any suggestions? | 10:41 |
| benchik | you think http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8150110 is trustworthy? | 10:43 |
| benchik | i mean to install AlsaUpgrade-1.0.x-rev-1.17.sh? | 10:43 |
| Sysi | well, noone have said that it won't work | 10:44 |
| benchik | i'll try. hope it eon't mess up my system | 10:44 |
| benchik | the script says no alsa found. wtf? the kernel doesn't recognize it? it says it'll download alsa. whatever/ | 10:46 |
| slow-motion | hi | 11:01 |
| benchik | Sysi: the script worked :) | 11:30 |
| Sysi | great :) | 11:30 |
| boscop | how can I lock the screen? I can't find it on any menu | 14:53 |
| ochosi | boscop, #crtl+alt+escape is the standard keyboard shortcut | 14:53 |
| ochosi | boscop, sry, not escape but del | 14:54 |
| ochosi | boscop, the command is called xflock4 and you can set custom keyboard shortcut for it too | 14:54 |
| boscop | thanks ochosi | 15:10 |
| thune3 | moving to fresh 9.10 I'd like to reinstall top level packages. Is there any way to extract/find the top level packages only (minimal set) in my current 9.04? | 15:41 |
| ]Spectre[ | Hi,I'm migrating from ubuntu-gnome tu xubuntu xfce,I'm looking for Place>Connect to server,can you help me ? | 15:44 |
| Sysi | you want to move files? | 15:45 |
| ]Spectre[ | Sysi,are you talking to me ? | 15:45 |
| Sysi | yup | 15:45 |
| ]Spectre[ | Sysi,I need to do a connection to a "window share" service | 15:46 |
| faily | im kinda new to ubuntu/xubuntu, im more used to pure debian, how can i lock down the tty terminals, every time i type exit im brought back in with them all at an open shell | 15:46 |
| faily | when i boot they're all open | 15:46 |
| faily | and yes i set passwd | 15:46 |
| Gratz474 | is 9.10 out yet? | 19:18 |
| _Pete_ | no | 19:20 |
| Sysi | rc is | 19:20 |
| Gratz474 | ah | 19:20 |
| Gratz474 | Sysi, i am running the ubuntu 9.10 right now | 19:20 |
| Sysi | me too :) | 19:21 |
| _Pete_ | I am not going to upgrade anytime soon | 19:21 |
| Gratz474 | i was thinking of maybe giving the xubuntu a try cause of the compositor | 19:21 |
| _Pete_ | and not even reboot, since this 9.04 is extreamly stable | 19:21 |
| Gratz474 | i have heard its better then the one in ubuntu (meta city) and compiz | 19:21 |
| Sysi | i like xfce more, effects also | 19:22 |
| Gratz474 | is there effects? | 19:22 |
| Gratz474 | i thought it was just a window shadow | 19:22 |
| Gratz474 | i didn't think the compositor really did effects | 19:22 |
| Sysi | well, opacity | 19:23 |
| Sysi | no animations | 19:23 |
| Gratz474 | yea compiz runs as smooth as butter here | 19:24 |
| Gratz474 | but | 19:24 |
| Gratz474 | when i enable it, my firefox browsing maybe gets 10 percent more non smooth | 19:24 |
| Gratz474 | less smooth | 19:24 |
| Gratz474 | still perfectly usable though | 19:24 |
| Gratz474 | the metacity compositor makes it a little bit better, but i have heard xfce has the best compositer there is | 19:25 |
| Gratz474 | so maybe i could get some shadows etc and full 100 percent firefox speeds | 19:25 |
| Gratz474 | just a guess anyways | 19:26 |
| Gratz474 | maybe not | 19:26 |
| Gratz474 | Sysi, think it would make any difference? hehe | 19:27 |

| Carl463 | Bye | 23:01 |
| jarmenda | Got a bit of an issue to inquire on. Xubuntu 9.10 at the moment. All is well until today and I get an update for adobe-flash. I go through the motions to update it. It then pauses at DPKG then it seems to bomb out. | 23:29 |
| jarmenda | E: /var/cache/apt/archives/adobe-flashplugin_10.0.32.18-1karmic1_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 | 23:29 |
| jarmenda | Uninstalling it and installing it from Adobe.com nop joy either. | 23:30 |
| knome | jarmenda, are you familiar with terminal? | 23:31 |
| jarmenda | I can certainly get by ... sure | 23:32 |
| knome | jarmenda, okay. what does 'sudo apt-get check' in terminal say? | 23:32 |
| jarmenda | stand by | 23:33 |
| jarmenda | E: The package adobe-flashplugin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. | 23:34 |
| knome | jarmenda, okay. try doing 'sudo apt-get update' and check after that again | 23:34 |
| jarmenda | Alrighty. Stand by. | 23:34 |
| jarmenda | Did the check. Same thing. | 23:35 |
| knome | okay. just a moment. | 23:36 |
| jarmenda | No worries :-) | 23:36 |
| knome | jarmenda, hmm. try to uninstall the package (sudo apt-get remove --purge adobe-flashplugin) and install flashplugin-nonfree instead | 23:37 |
| jarmenda | Hmmmm. Didn't think of that. Stand by. | 23:38 |
| jarmenda | clear | 23:38 |
| jarmenda | E: The package adobe-flashplugin needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. | 23:39 |
| jarmenda | Same thing I'm afraid. | 23:39 |
| jarmenda | Now I do mouse over the update icon and mentions something about possible unmet dependencies. | 23:40 |
| jarmenda | Problem is that what those dependencies are it doesn't say (that I can find). | 23:41 |
