[00:30] <emma> Hi there
[00:30] <emma> my friend is trying to install xubuntu on some old laptops. She says she has downloaded the pc intel x86 iso and burned it to a CD. When she puts the CD into the laptop the laptop is not booting the xubuntu live CD
[00:30] <emma> Jora: is that accurate?
[00:30] <Jora> Hello. I am trying to install xubuntu on a pentium 3 796 mhz 128 RAM desktop
[00:31] <Jora> yes
[00:31] <C00LARR01> did you change the boot order to put the cd first?
[00:31] <Jora> no
[00:31] <Jora> No idea how to do that
[00:31] <emma> Jora: is it not booting at all or is it booting but not booting the xubuntu?
[00:32] <Jora> It was just booting windows
[00:32] <emma> ahh well that's good.
[00:32] <Jora> I probably need to go into BIOS and change the boot order
[00:32] <emma> try changing the boot in your bios
[00:32] <emma> yes
[00:32] <Jora> That will be interesting never done that before but 1st time for everything
[00:32] <emma> at the start you can usually press one of the F buttons or something like that. usually it says if you look closely.
[00:33] <emma> that takes you to the bios. Then look around ni there for a way to change to boot CDROM
[01:11] <C00LARR01> i am wanting to buy a usb wifi adapter and looking to see if anyone has any good experiece with a certain make and model?
[01:22] <Techie__> C00LARR01, the D-link DSL-302g is great
[01:22] <C00LARR01> Techie__: ty i will look into it
[01:22] <Techie__> wait no, thats a modem
[01:23] <Techie__> stupid model numbers
[01:23] <C00LARR01> ah ok
[01:25] <Techie__> i dont think they sell the adaptor i had anymore
[01:25] <Techie__> but it looked very similar to the dlink AG132
[01:26] <Techie__> exact same casing, but im sure it was a different model number
[01:26] <C00LARR01> ok
[01:26] <C00LARR01> ill keep looking
[01:28] <C00LARR01> i just need a sub wifi adpater that will work with a 9.04 install so i can get rid of this 40ft cat5 cable

[16:46] <scott55> How do I get it back?
[16:47] <scott55> Actually, top and bottom--toolbarless as a matter of fact
[16:47] <vinnl> scott55, press Alt+F2, run xfce4-panel
[16:47] <scott55> thank you!!!!!
[16:47] <scott55> so much
[16:47] <scott55> :)
[16:47] <vinnl> Happens too much, unfortunately :)

[16:48] <scott55> and thank you for the tip
[16:48] <scott55> :)
[16:48] <scott55> I appreciate you all being here
[16:48] <likemindead> It's never actually happened to me. :-)
[16:49] <likemindead> I've used Xubuntu for close to two years.
[16:49] <vinnl> Be glad :)
[16:49] <likemindead> Is it in relation to specific harware?
[16:49] <scott55> I am very very glad
[16:49] <scott55> however
[16:49] <scott55> it is not working
[16:49] <scott55> "failed to run.."
[16:50] <vinnl> likemindead, not sure, if they knew the cause they would have fixed it, I suppose :P
[16:50] <scott55> hmmm
[16:51] <vinnl> scott55, did you type it correctly?
[16:51] <scott55> checking
[16:51] <vinnl> scott55, if you did, could you open Applications->Accessories->Terminal and run it there?
[16:51] <likemindead> Does it require sudo?
[16:51] <vinnl> No
[16:52] <vinnl> Anyway, I'm off, bye
[16:52] <scott55> yeah not working...."failed to run
[16:53] <scott55> thank you for your help vinn1
[16:53] <vinnl> scott55, and what do you see in a terminal?
[16:53] <vinnl> (I'll stick around for a bit to see if I can help you with this :P)
[16:53] <_Pete_> likemindead: 1p tip: sudo is only and only needed to change something system wide
[16:54] <scott55> yahooooo

[16:59] <_Pete_> yes
[16:59] <_Pete_> the place no-one knows
[17:00] <Sysi> is there some particular reason that you aren't on any -fi channels?
[17:00] <_Pete_> no?
[17:01] <_Pete_> but yes
[17:02] <_Pete_> because there happen to be stupid people who tries to be smart
[17:02] <scott55> this is the second time I lost my toolbar

[18:29] <troglobyte> does xubuntu use the ubuntuone-client-gnome? Is there not a xfce specific clent?
[18:29] <Sysi> i think so

[20:34] <Kangarooo> how to get dropbox on xubuntu? from www.dropbox.com installation wants to install nautilus and put dropbox in nautilus. how to make it work on xubuntu thunar?
[20:47] <Besogon> Kangarooo, Did you look through the Dropbox web site? http://wiki.dropbox.com/TipsAndTricks/TextBasedLinuxInstall
[22:39] <owen1> i use 2 monitores and i only see the panels in one of them. any ideas?
[22:39] <owen1> xfce4-panel
[22:42] <troglobyte> You have to add additional panels.
[22:42] <troglobyte> + to add a panel and select monitor 2 as destination
[22:43] <troglobyte> at least on mine.  Nvidia driver set up with twinview
[23:03] <owen1> troglobyte: i use nvidia as well, but i set it to have X for each monitor
[23:14] <troglobyte> owen1: and your "Customize Panel..." dialog box has no second monitor option?
[23:21] <owen1> troglobyte: yeah, i think i got it. thank you
[23:22] <troglobyte> owen1: glad I could help.  It's usually the other way around :)
[23:23] <owen1> you are my daily hero
[23:24] <troglobyte> ha!
[23:29] <owen1> bdw, can u drag a window from one screen to another? i think i can't since i don't use twinview.
[23:31] <troglobyte> I've never used the dual X option. twinview always does what I need.
[23:32] <owen1> so u have one long panel that spread across the two monitores?
[23:34] <troglobyte> nope.  I can add panels to the second monitor.  but they're off by default.
[23:43] <owen1> so what is twinview? maybe that's what i use?
[23:43] <owen1> i see two instances of whatever window manager i use.
[23:43] <owen1> as if i have two seperate machines.
