[00:35] <Flashtek> greetings people..
[00:38] <Flashtek> my wifes hdd has failed, she's using an Xubuntu live cd to do everything she needs (firefox mainly). she wants to access the NFS share on my desktop machine.. what's the prefered method for achieving this please ?
[01:03] <konsumer> Hello everyone.
[01:05] <konsumer> I have a question. If i install Xubuntu on an old Compaq laptop (2200 Series) and decide to install something else later, can i completely delete the partition with, say, Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[01:08] <konsumer> i think i ping'd, did you reply?
[01:08] <konsumer> anyone*
[01:14] <mikubuntu> anybody have this behavior recently?  all my desktop saved files have disappeard from the desktop; they are still available in the filesystem folder named 'desktop', but they no longer appear on the desktop screen.
[01:19] <ron_o> I have that because I chose not to have any links shown on my desktop
[01:19] <ron_o> it's in  settings >> desktop  or something...
[01:20] <ron_o> konsumer, as long as your home partition is separated from your root "/" partition, you can do that.
[01:21] <ron_o> you must reinstall all your applications from scratch, however. But there are techniques of doing that with very little effort.

[05:34] <oldtopman> hello all
[07:42] <Balsaq> good morning Sysi!
[11:40] <drcode> hi all
[11:40] <drcode> why xfdesktop take 90% cpu?
[11:43] <lcb> hi. i see this issue from several users but no conclusive answers. my usb keyboard and mouse are having erratic behavior, not responding or too slow on keys and moves. i have no wireless devices connected or active at all, at this point. i'm writing this on console and pasting it here because on regular graphics i can't do it due to the problem. any suggestions to solve it are appreciated.

[12:10] <Mendocino> ikonia bruder?
[12:11] <Sysi> why masshilight?
[12:11] <Sysi> if you have question, ask
[12:12] <Sysi> if you want just chat go to some offtopic channel
[12:16] <Mendocino> relaks Sysi bruder:D
[12:16] <Mendocino> just relaks:D
[12:17] <Sysi> not possible right now, i'm on lesson :)

[14:13] <ninoy26> hi to all
[14:13] <ninoy26> :-)
[14:13] <ninoy26> can anyone help me? im going back to linux again (after 5 years of law school - my father forced me. haha)
[14:14] <ninoy26> anyone here?
[14:15] <Mendocino> yes, ninoy26 brother
[14:16] <ninoy26> i installed xubuntu, but it doenst show an 1024x768 resolution
[14:16] <ninoy26> its an old laptop
[14:16] <ninoy26> i tried to look for xorg.conf, but it wasnt there
[14:17] <ablomen> ninoy26, xorg (sadly) configures itself on boot nowadays, but you can still create a xorg.conf file and put stuff there if you like
[14:17] <ninoy26> i tried to create one
[14:18] <ninoy26> but its still empty
[14:18] <ninoy26> sudo service gdm stop
[14:18] <ninoy26> sudo Xorg -configure
[14:18] <ninoy26> like that
[14:18] <ninoy26> did that
[14:19] <ablomen> no i think you have to create it by hand
[14:19] <ninoy26> how?
[14:19] <ninoy26> any help
[14:19] <ninoy26> im really excited
[14:21] <ablomen> well you can create a file with your text-editor and add the stuff you need (i think just the screen section) but im not sure that is your problem, can you give any details on your laptop's hardware?
[14:21] <ninoy26> its an old laptop
[14:21] <Quadrescence> Does anyone know why in the XFCE menu, the "others" category of applications seems to disappear?
[14:22] <ninoy26> pentium III, with 256 mb, and 11gigabyte hard disk
[14:22] <ninoy26> with an intel i440bx chipset
[14:34] <Mendocino> Penguino brother Ola!
[14:35] <Penguino> Hey Mendocino
[14:35] <Penguino> Do I even know you?
[14:36] <Mendocino> Yes brother
[14:37] <ikonia> Mhoram: don't start in here - this is your only warning
[14:37] <ikonia> Mhoram: sorry - not you
[14:38] <ikonia> Mendocino: don't start in here - this will be your only warning
[14:38] <Mendocino> Heavy TroLLz Attak Warning!
[14:39] <ikonia> apologies for that to the channel
[14:41] <likemindead> facepalm.jpg
[14:42] <likemindead> Anyone running the new Google Chrome (web browser) beta? I've been using it for two days now & flipping love it. Haven't had any bugginess or anything.
[14:44] <Penguino> Ohhh
[14:44] <Penguino> Mendocino
[14:44] <Penguino> Who the hell is he?
[16:05] <zutme> OK this is driving me crazy. Why won't nano wrap when I use the wrap option i.e. nano -r ?
[16:05] <zutme> I use the option and type some text and it doesn't wrap
[16:10] <likemindead> !nano
[16:10] <likemindead> Isn't -r the variable for recursive?
[16:12] <zutme> What would nano do recursively? Command line switches are per application.
[16:16] <likemindead> Ah...
[16:19] <likemindead> Learn emacs? ;-)
[16:20] <zutme> I've tried to learn vim a few times but can't get used to it
[16:21] <likemindead> Me either. :-\
[16:21] <likemindead> I like Leafpad. Are you wanting a CLI editor, though?
[16:24] <zutme> Not necessarily. I messed around with Mousepad just now, but also no word-wrap. Even though its turned on in options.
[16:24] <Penguino> !code
[16:24] <Penguino> !html
[16:26] <Penguino> Thanks, ubottu
[16:44] <benchik> hello
[16:44] <benchik> is there a vpn client for ubuntu that is as user friendly and easy as windows 7/vista has?
[16:44] <benchik> is there xfce native one?
[16:58] <MrNaz_yma> ok, so i have my NAS showing up in gigolo, ive managed to get smb set up on it and connecting... its showing up in gigolo... however, when i click "open in file manager" nothing happens... how do i map the share to a local mount point ?
[20:13] <likemindead> http://secure.eff.org/friends2009
[20:13] <likemindead> Wrong window...
[20:52] <Sememmon> hmm.. how did pulseaudio sneak in to my xubuntu install.
[20:52]  * Sememmon stabs pulkseaudio
[20:52] <Sememmon> s/k//
[20:54] <likemindead> Uninstall it. "sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio"
[20:57] <Sahkolihaa> Install Rhyhmbox? :P
[20:57] <Sahkolihaa> I found installing that installs it.
[21:04] <likemindead> Lame.
[21:04] <likemindead> Several apps will. Skype does too, I think.
[21:10] <Sememmon> I didn't uninstall it.. used a method to disable it instead.
[21:10]  * Sememmon hates pulseaudio. a lot.
[21:11] <Sememmon> great concept. poor implementation.
[21:59] <cebosound> how do i get flash ?
[22:00] <knome> sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[22:00] <cebosound> i installed google chrome and went to youtube.  it asked to dowload adobe flash for linux.   but nothing really happend?...
[22:00] <knome> install the package
[22:01] <vinnl> cebosound, just open Applications->Add/Remove..., search for Flash and install it
[22:01] <cebosound> install the package that you recommended?  or from adobe flash?
[22:01] <vinnl> (Make sure "All available applications" is selected in the drop-down menu on top
[22:03] <cebosound> ok.  i will try.   today is my first day with xubuntu installed.   it is awsome so far. since i have put it on my old pentium 4 laptop just to try out linux.
[22:03] <vinnl> Nice :)
[22:09] <cebosound> ok.  there is movie player.  is that the right one so i can watch on youtube?
[22:09] <vinnl> No
[22:09] <vinnl> It's probably something like "Adobe Flash Player"
[22:09] <vinnl> (You can also visit zombo.com and click the box there ;-)
[22:10] <vinnl> Ah, it's Adobe Flash plugin
[22:10] <cebosound> oh , i didnt have it on "all open source applications".
[22:10] <vinnl> Also, you might want to install "Xubuntu restricted extras" if you don't mind proprietary software
[22:11] <vinnl> !restricted
[22:11] <cebosound> what is "xubuntu restricted extras"?   does it take up a lot of space?
[22:12] <vinnl> It installs things like the flash player, support for playing MP3 files, and other things many people want but which Xubuntu can't install by default because of legal issues
[22:13] <vinnl> So yeah, I suppose it'll take some space (most people can probably have it, not sure how much space you have), but it includes a lot of stuff you probably want
[22:15] <cebosound> vinnl, sounds good . where do i find it?
[22:16] <vinnl> cebosound, also in Applications->Add/Remove...
[22:16] <vinnl> Make sure "All available applications" is selected, not just "All open source applications"
[22:28] <cebosound> vinnl, i am installing xubuntu restricted extras...does that have adobe flash in there? it looks like it has some kind of flash in it.  and i just saw what u meant by "all available applications"   duh. my bad. lol
[22:28] <vinnl> cebosound, yes, it will also install Flash :)
[22:29] <cebosound> sweet
[22:46] <cebosound> is that abiword compatible with office word?
[22:46] <vinnl> It tries to and often succeeds, it may have problems with complex documents
[22:47] <cebosound> i saw there was some other office, cant remember the name. is that one more compatible
[22:48] <vinnl> OpenOffice
[22:48] <cebosound> yeah.
[22:48] <cebosound> is that like an open share "microsoft office"?
[22:48] <vinnl> It has more developers behind it, so it's probably a bit better. You can install both if you'd like, just in case Abiword (which is much faster) has trouble reading a document
[22:48] <vinnl> It's just another office suite, but fairly big
[22:49] <vinnl> And yeah, it often tries to imitate MS Office
[22:51] <cebosound> i have a newer laptop... about 6 months old that i do most of that kind of those kind of things with.   I am just breathing new life into an old dell laptop that was on its way out.   this linux stuff is pretty neat.  i have been using xp for a long time on all machines.   i wonder why more people don't use linux
[22:52] <vinnl> Habit, I suppose
[22:52] <vinnl> It's quite a step and a lot of work to learn to use a new operating system
[22:52] <cebosound> true.  but if you have the time i would imagine it could be fun
[22:53] <vinnl> Yeah, but how many people have the time? ;-)
[22:53] <cebosound> yeah
[22:53] <vinnl> Also, most people will want to use a spare machine to try it as they're afraid to lose a usable system, but not everybody has one
[22:55] <cebosound> so i downloaded and installed that "restricted" pack.  now, do i have to restart.  i want to try to use you tube.
[22:56] <vinnl> You only have to restart if it says so. You may need to close Firefox and then open it again
[23:00] <cebosound> it looks like that worked.   although this computer doesn't have enough ram or speed to watch the video in a steady stream.
[23:00] <cebosound> or something.
[23:00] <vinnl> Make sure you don't have YouTube's HD or HQ enabled :)
[23:00] <vinnl> But then still your computer might not be powerful enough...
[23:02] <cebosound> true.   i was thinking about adding a 1g of ram in this laptop to help it.  and i would just use for occasional extra stuff and to learn more about xubuntu and linux as a whole.
[23:03] <vinnl> Sounds like a good idea ;-)
[23:03] <cebosound> i think this laptop only has like half of a Gig of ram as is
[23:04] <cebosound> Who knows i might have to just convert my other laptop to xubuntu.  i can only imagine how i could shredd through things speed wise with that.
[23:04] <vinnl> ^.^
[23:05] <vinnl> But I'd take my time to get to know it on this laptop first
[23:05] <cebosound> yeah, that is a good idea.
[23:05] <cebosound> how do i change the time out of military time?  i have tried but didn't see anything.  do i have to keep it that way
[23:06] <vinnl> No, I believe Applications->System->Time and date
[23:12] <cebosound> well, i think i have done enough of learning xubuntu for a while  vinnl,  thank you VERY much for your help and patience.
[23:13] <vinnl> Heh, no problem, come back any time you like :)
[23:19] <vinnl> Well, then I guess I'm off too, bye :)
[23:58] <baniirachan> Hey all. Just installed xubuntu on an old dell inspiron 5100. However, I'm noticing something weird, don't know if it's a bug or not, but I can't fullscreen apps because the taskbar stripes through the middle of my screen. Any help?
[23:59] <knome> stripes?
[23:59] <baniirachan> You know, like it cuts through the middle of my screen
[23:59] <knome> can you paste a screenshot?
[23:59] <baniirachan> Sure
[23:59] <knome> thanks
[23:59] <baniirachan> Two secs
