[00:35] <JasonA> Yo people!
[00:35] <JasonA> Anyone here?
[00:36] <JasonA> Anyones here?
[00:36] <JasonA> Got a ps3 question >_>
[01:09] <soreau> Hello
[01:10] <soreau> I am having a problem with setting keybindings for xfwm4. When I go to the keyboard settings and try to add a new command, I type in the command, type a key binding but the new binding does not show up in the list there. Isn't it supposed to? Is this a known bug?
[01:12] <eein> can someone help me with xfce keybindings particulary xfrun4 <alt>F2 is not working
F4 still works to close programs but not xfrun4
[01:14] <soreau> eein: What is the output of 'ps ax|grep xfwm4'?
[01:16] <eein>  4937 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/sh -c xfwm4 --replace  4938 ?        S      0:02 xfwm4 --replace
[01:16] <eein> hmm that doesnt seem right
[01:16] <soreau> Sure it does
[01:20] <soreau> eein: Well if it makes you feel any better, it's broken here too
[01:21] <soreau> and now I can't even get Keyboard prefs to open via xfce settings
[01:22] <soreau> but I see why and it's not xfce's fault
[01:22] <eein> how is that
[01:23] <soreau> anyway, I think xfce keybindings are broken
[04:13] <webbb82> can i use compz in xfce
[04:23] <durt> webbb82, yes you can.
[04:25] <arthurjohnson> webbb82: The easiest way:  Applications - Settings - Session and Startup - Application Autostart. Add the command "compiz --replace"
[04:25] <arthurjohnson> webbb82: There is another way (some would argue better way) but I've always just done the --replace method.

[12:54] <St0n3-C0l> knome?
[13:06] <lucijan> hi
[13:06] <lucijan> i downloaded the 8.04 image and now that i try to install it booting from cd fails with the message could not find kernal image: linux
[13:06] <lucijan> is there a way to see the list of available images?
[13:07] <likemindead> Did you check the disc for errors/defects?
[13:07] <lucijan> likemindead: you mean after burning checksum verification or something as like?
[13:08] <likemindead> Yes. When you boot a Ubuntu Live CD, there is a "Check Disc For Defects" (or something similar) option. Run that. It only takes a couple of minutes.
[13:08] <lucijan> likemindead: i can
[13:09] <lucijan> 't see a menu just a prompt "boot:"
[13:09] <likemindead> That doesn't sound good.
[13:10] <lucijan> nope
[13:10] <lucijan> must say it's old machines
[13:10] <likemindead> Processor? RAM?
[13:10] <lucijan> and i bought the cd-r on a bazar in a small village in ukraine
[13:11] <lucijan> pentium III 866 mhz with 512 mb
[13:11] <Sysi> that should be ok
[13:12] <likemindead> Yep. I'm on a similar machine right now!
[13:12] <likemindead> Are you trying Ubuntu or Xubuntu, lucijan?
[13:13] <lucijan> xubuntu
[13:13] <likemindead> Is the image you have the desktop Live Cd or the alternative Live CD?
[13:14] <lucijan> likemindead: alternate
[13:14] <lucijan> no worlds about live tough
[13:14] <lucijan> tested the same cd on a different machine same problem
[13:15] <likemindead> Yeah, that's an install only image. No Live Desktop environment.
[13:15] <lucijan> i burned the iso with mac's disk utillities but that should be good normally
[13:15] <lucijan> likemindead: installation is what i have in mind
[13:16] <lucijan> isolinux is not lilo, is it?
[13:16] <likemindead> Ah.
[13:16] <lucijan> you think it's worth a try downloading 9.04 and testing again?
[13:17] <lucijan> it's just a bad internet connection so 500mb take about 4 hours to download
[13:17] <likemindead> I'd go for 9.10 at this point.
[13:18] <lucijan> is that stable? i will set up an internet cafe here in a culture club and there is no one really good with computers so i think it's good to have something stable, because i will leave in maybe 3 weeks or a month
[13:19] <lucijan> also i wonder if it is possible to create one setup (i will need some scripts etc.) and have that setup on some master disk
[13:19] <lucijan> likemindead: should i go for alternate or desktop?
[13:20] <likemindead> I always go with Desktop.
[13:20] <likemindead> That way you can test the Live CD before you install.
[13:20] <likemindead> And yes, 9.10 is quite stable. It is RC now and final release in three days.
[13:46] <pjammer> greetings and salivations
[13:46] <likemindead> !hi | pjammer
[13:47] <pjammer> just downloaded xubuntu to hopefully ROCK my old compaq circa 2000
[13:47] <pjammer> 186mb of ram... should be fun!
[13:48] <likemindead> I'd get on eBay and get some cheap RAM, as much as that old machine can handle. Makes a world of difference.
[13:48] <likemindead> I'm on a PIII laptop circa 2002, but I upped the RAM from 128MB to 1GB. :-) It flies!
[13:57] <pjammer> damn u left
[13:57] <pjammer> if a machine says it can only handle 256.. is that really it? without mod-ing it?
[13:58] <pjammer> by that i mean is it only a suggested limit, or that's all that little guy can handle.
[14:33] <MoonTiger> is this where i can ask about karmic rc?
[14:35] <Sysi> about ubuntu karmic or xubuntu karmic?
[14:35] <MoonTiger> xubuntu :)
[14:36] <Sysi> hmm, there is #ubuntu+1 but you can try :)
[14:37] <MoonTiger> ok ... i don't want to ask in the wrong place and all but its a sound issue ... always starts muted
[14:38] <Sysi> same problem has existed also in jaunty
[14:38] <MoonTiger> didnt for me
[14:39] <MoonTiger> *sigh*
[14:40] <MoonTiger> is there a solution?
[14:40] <Sysi> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/450652
[14:41] <MoonTiger> awesome ... so basically they are saying if pulse audio doesn't start quit the init script ... genius
[14:41] <MoonTiger> :)
[14:42] <Sysi> i dunno, works for me
[14:42] <MoonTiger> did you apply the patch?
[14:42] <Sysi> or i'm not sure, i don't reboot often
[14:42] <MoonTiger> hehe
[14:43] <MoonTiger> i have to reboot in windoze for coding stuff so i reboot often
[18:03] <ron_o> this is weird. I'm using Opera and I know my mouse was on a legitimate website without any ads, that I know of, and then all of a sudden a new page popped up with one of those "Google, work from home" scams.
[18:03] <ron_o> the question is how?
[18:05] <pjammer> js? timers?
[18:06] <ron_o> javascript ? and what's a timer?
[18:09] <Pres-Gas> Hey, all.  I cannot edit files in the RC of Xubu.  I have a file in my home and can "less" it to a terminal, but when I issue "vi" on the file, it comes up as a new file
[18:09] <Pres-Gas> I have an encrypted home directory
[18:13] <pjammer> ron_o: i meant maybe they programmed the javascript to open after 10 seconds or something
[18:13] <pjammer> dunno. i try to avoid dodgy sites
[18:13] <pjammer> :-)
[18:14] <ron_o> that's just it. I was here: http://www.bartleby.com/73/1593.html
[18:15] <ron_o> not dodgy at all.
[18:15] <ron_o> and I had other video open, now closed, but it was sitting there idling for some time.
[18:16] <ron_o> thanks. I'll figure it out. I was way too used to browser hijackers in windows. Don't want a repeat, you know.
[18:16] <ron_o> :/
[18:17] <ron_o> pretty obvious it wasn't legit. Some people!
[18:21] <Brian_> i need a litle help  i was messing with the desktop effects and somehow there are no window borders as in to close or move a window  how do i get it back.  in gnome i could do compiz --replace  but what do i do in xfce
[18:25] <TheSheep> Brian_: alt+f2 and then type 'xfwm4'
[18:25] <Brian_> ya i got it thanks
[18:27] <likemindead> I always had better luck with Emerald (rather than Compiz) for a window manager, Brian_.
[18:28] <Brian_> can you use emerald in xfce?
[18:28] <Sysi> of course
[18:28] <Sysi> i didn't manage to get compiz work with xfwm
[18:29] <Sysi> at the end i decided that xfce composion was better :P
[18:29] <Brian_> so how do i get and use emerald in xf
[18:30] <Sysi> install it
[18:30] <Sysi> and set to compiz-settings
[18:30] <likemindead> !emerald
[18:31] <likemindead> Hmm... :-\
[18:31] <Brian_> whats the deal with http://goodies.xfce.org/start#xfce-goodies-project   is it a repo i can add
[18:39] <pjammer> i saw this cat on youtube run compiz on a similar old laptop... i'm stoked if it will work !
[18:58] <zo> hi
[19:00] <Penguino> Hi
[19:01] <Brian_> what terminal does xfce use
[19:03] <zo> I'm a xubuntu user and I need help. My cd player does not work, i think that xubuntu did not identify it. Is there a command in order to resolve this problem?
[19:04] <zo> (beginning of the previous message) : I'm a xubuntu user and I need help. My cd player does not work (...)
[19:09] <pjammer> lspci doesn't have it. i think that is the command.
[19:11] <Penguino> Brian_: xfce4-terminal
[19:15] <craigbass1976> What's the best GUI way to browse windows shares in xubuntu?
[19:16] <Penguino> I use Nautilus
[19:16] <Penguino> I'd like to use Nautilus as default file manager but I don't know how :(
[19:16] <Penguino> Thunar is pretty fast but I need some Nautilus features
[19:17] <craigbass1976> Penguino, Isn't installing nautilus going to bring a bunch of GNOME stuff too?
[19:18] <Penguino> craigbass1976: Yup
[19:19] <Penguino> But it's the only way I know for doing that
[19:19] <craigbass1976> Penguino, mmm, that's what I wanted to avoid
[19:19] <Penguino> Oh
[19:20] <Penguino> I try to keep a free-qt desktop but I can't
[19:20] <Penguino> Damn VirtualBox lol
[19:20] <kaeser> HOw do I disable screen lock when lid is close or when inactive?
[19:21] <craigbass1976> kaeser, settings -> screensaver
[19:21] <craigbass1976> ?
[19:22] <kaeser> Apparently there is something else that is messing with it.
[19:22] <kaeser> Cous I did disable those things over there.
[19:22] <Penguino> I'll wait for final Karmic
[19:22] <Penguino> Having a clean install is the answer for everything :P
[19:33] <pjammer> xubuntu is loading up but the screen is dark..... hmm.
[19:39] <MichielL> Hi all, since Abiword is the default wordprocessor for Xubuntu I thought I'd notify you that a new major release is out - version 2.8.0
[19:39] <MichielL> In case anybody wants to package it, the URI is http://abisource.com/downloads/abiword/2.8.0/source/
[19:39] <charlie-tca> Thank you. It will probably make it into the next release.
[19:40] <charlie-tca> 9.10 will be released on Thursday, which is a little late to put that in.
[19:41] <MichielL> I understand. Well, thought you should have it anyway ASAP. It'll be out officially soon.
[19:43] <Penguino> I uninstalled Abiword and installed OpenOffice :D
[19:43] <charlie-tca> Thanks. It may be a candidate for SRU
[19:46] <MichielL> I think indeed SDU would be in order - it is a major release and especially ODF interoperability has been improved a lot. Also, it has some nifty real time collaboration stuff which is really impressive.
[19:47] <charlie-tca> I can try to do that after the sync next month. They just turn them down if we do it now
[19:49] <MichielL> Great. I'm sure the users will be very happy about their - the office suite is so central to the way people think, and especially in interoperability the last 18 months have made a huge difference.
[19:50] <MichielL> Well, thanks for the help. Look forward to seeing it apt-gotten on my machine.
[19:55] <charlie-tca> You are welcome. Thanks for bringing it up
[21:33] <RhysTM> Hi all, newbie question... What differences are there between ubuntu and xubuntu apart from the window manager?
[21:33] <Sysi> some programs
[21:34] <TheSheep> the programs that are installed by default
[21:34] <RhysTM> i have been using ubuntu for a few years so apart from programs there is no difference in functionality
[21:34] <RhysTM> and i take it these can be retrospectively installed from the repo
[21:36] <TheSheep> there is difference in that xubuntu doesn't have all the gui stuff that ubuntu does, but yes, you can install anything from ubuntu, kubuntu, edubuntu, etc.
[21:36] <Sysi> it's mostly what you like the most
[21:37] <Sysi> there are other things that window manager actually
[21:37] <RhysTM> functionality over aesthetics for me
[21:37] <Sysi> whole UI is bit different
[21:37] <Sysi> it's about what you like mostly
[21:38] <Sysi> xubuntu runs with less ram but not big difference
[21:39] <RhysTM> OK thanks, i guess i'll install it tomorrow and see how it is.
[21:39] <Sysi> and you van insall all UI:s
[21:39] <TheSheep> I always end up with something in between ubuntu. xubuntu and completely custom
[21:39] <Sysi> i have them
[21:40] <Sysi> i get xubuntu, try others and use xubuntu
[21:40] <RhysTM> I am using mint at the moment on a dodgy laptop that locks up periodically
[21:46] <Guest2906> hello, can anyone recommend a virtual machine for installing linux on a windows XP pc? i already tried VMware player but i had troubles connecting to the interwebz.
[21:48] <RhysTM> vmware workstation?
[21:49] <Guest2906> hmm i think that since its from the same company the networking thingies will be handled the same way :-|
[21:49] <Guest2906> i guess i try virtualbox
[21:49] <charlie-tca> VirtualBox from Sun
[21:50] <Guest2906> Yes, thanks :-]
[23:23] <pjammer>  a #protip... when installing xubuntu on a POS laptop, make sure you get the alternate install.
[23:58] <pjammer> 58% oooo!
[23:58] <pjammer> beer time
[23:59] <Penguino> 58% for what?
