knometrimmer, #ubuntu+100:08
trimmerThey support the Alpha release of xubuntu too?00:09
knomewell, that's the most appropriate place. bug reports are not seriously being taken in yet00:12
knomeyou could also ask #xubuntu-devel, but it seems to be a bit quiet right now00:12
trimmerNo questions, I just wanted everyone to know that I am seeding the torrent, just kind of wondering why there aren't more people seeding.00:16

Venimit just never engages13:36
Venimmost of the time it just shuts off the monitors13:37

djura-sanso it works13:39
djura-sannow try this13:39
Venimi knew i have it installed, it just never engages13:39
djura-sanwhat about "settings > screensaver" options?13:40
Venimthat's what i've been doing13:40
djura-sanxubuntu by default uses no ss (not on my fresh installation anyway)13:41
Venimyeah13:41
Venimits not listening to those settings13:41
djura-sandid you tried to change that?13:41
djura-sanaha13:41
Venimhere, let me try it again with a 1minute idle time13:42
djura-santry13:42
* djura-san note to myself: ask for xscreensaver in 10.0413:43
Venimyeah13:43
Venimdidn't work13:43
Venimand last night it didn't even shut down the monitors13:43
Venimi woke up and they were on13:43
Venimo hmmm13:44
Venimi can apparently upgrade gnome-screensaver13:44
djura-sanyeah... yesterday there was update13:44
djura-sandidnt try13:44
Venimyeah, its not even kicking in at this point13:52
djura-sanhuh13:52
Venimhmmm13:52
Venimmaybe i'll just replace it with xcreensaver?13:52
Venimhmmm13:53
djura-sanits the easiest choice but im thinking how to force gnome ss to use your settings13:53
Venimmaybe its a problem in my startup13:53
djura-sanmaybe to load settings directly to your gconf?13:53
djura-sanstartuP?13:53
Venimlike, the gnome-screensaver daemon13:53
Venim** (gnome-screensaver:4374): WARNING **: Failed to get session presence proxy: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SessionManager': no such name13:54

djura-sanstupid lag...13:56
djura-sanwell you could do that. btw did you enabled gnoem services at xfce start? im not sure but maybe gnome ss is starting trought gnome-settings-daemon !?13:58
Venimolook at that13:59
Venimyeah, gnome-services are starting13:59
djura-sanhuh... not sure waht to do next13:59
djura-san*what13:59
Venimwell i replaced it14:01
Venimand it seems to work just fine14:01
djura-sanwhy is is showing session manager error... Maybe its some permission error. did you asked folks at #ubuntu? Maybe somebody had same error14:01
djura-san?14:01
Venimi'm using xscreensaver now14:01
djura-sanokay. still you *could* report that to #ubutnu if you have the time14:03
Venimyeah14:03

djura-san>(15:01
djura-sanstypid layot15:01
knome:)15:01
djura-sanbtw knome since you and your team developing albatros there is on thing... you should lighten panels a little. they are too dark right now15:03
djura-sanjust my 2c15:03
knomethat was one of the considerations then. i actually wanted them to be darker.15:04
knomethen==when we were finishing it off for karmic15:04
djura-sanare they now... what like: #222?15:04
knomesomething like that maybe15:04
djura-sanok15:04
knomei would have wanted #11115:04
knome;P15:04
knomeor maybe #15151515:05
djura-santhen base colour should not be fff since it is like contrast ;)15:05
knomethe base color shouldn't be #fff15:05
knomei think the panels are quite well balanced in terms of contrast15:05
knomemaybe there could be a hint more contrast15:05
djura-sannot base sorry. base is white15:06
knome(just got told that some of the items are hard to see if you have a bad monitor/eyesight)15:06
* djura-san has very old monitor right now so it must be it15:06
knomeSiDi/dashua know more about this, you can contact them at #shimmer15:06
djura-sanits time to bother elementary dev (Dan right?) to  create dirs for xdg :)15:08
knomedjura-san, him or the shimmer team, so we can add them specifically for the (x)ubuntu package15:09
djura-sanso, where to report bugs? To #xubuntu-devel?15:09
knomeumh, launchpad15:09
djura-sanknome, yeah but if he creates this in his base package then all users of xdg thingy can use that :)15:10
knomeagainst xubuntu-artwork for now15:10
knomedjura-san, that's okay as well.15:10
knomedjura-san, but probably we're going to modify some of the icons anyway15:10
djura-sanokay. loader (mice) is not showing well at load...15:10
djura-sanalso notifier is messed up15:10
djura-sanwhere exactly should i post bugs from a1?15:14
knomewell, kind of nowhere, but if somewhere, then launchpad15:17
djura-sanshould i follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Testing then?15:17
knomejust notify us on #xubuntu-devel of the smaller things15:17
knomeyes, that's a good testing routine15:18
knomebut again, please ask charlie-tca. he can answer you better than me15:18
knomei have to go now, i can't miss the next train15:19

plainlol!19:20
plaini have been using 'ubuntu' username with no pass19:21
_Techie_plain, that is the login for th elivecd19:31
djura-sanwow... 5 leches :)19:36
_Techie_djura-san, why do you wish to test te alpha?19:45
djura-sani dont know...19:54
djura-sani love lts principes so i would like to be part of creation of that release19:54
djura-sanit will be the sys that i will keep at least 2y on my pc so...19:55
_Techie_fair enough djura-san, but still alpha testing an OS is suicide20:00
djura-sanaon the top of that i dont see any point to leave testing just for devs since im using (and my friend, and his friend and some user in africa, australia, us)...20:00
djura-san*on20:00
djura-san_Techie_, i tried it today and it looks like (and apps are like) in 9.1020:01
djura-san:)20:01
_Techie_that would probably be because most of the upgrades havent been made yet, its only been 1 month and 13 days since the release of karmic20:01
djura-sanof course20:01
djura-san:)20:01
djura-sanstill in 10.04 i dont expect any radical change20:02
djura-san;)20:02
plain_Techie_, its not working for me, logging into the livecd20:02
djura-sanplain, is there autologin? it should be so just wait 10s20:03
djura-santry that way20:03
plainok20:03
_Techie_or restart20:03
_Techie_as i know the ubunut livecd for karmic recreates the user at boot, not sure about xubuntu though20:04
plaini know this cd has a few errors while its booting20:04
_Techie_thats the main reason why i stuck with jaunty for my USB linux20:04
plainbut when i check cd fordefects, it finds none20:04
djura-sanplain, did you check the md5sum for donwloaded iso file of xubuntu?20:05
djura-san*downloaded20:05
plainno but i got it from a xubuntu mirror.20:05
plainbut it installs on this laptop20:05
plainso the cd definitely works20:05
djura-sanplain, that is not 100% certain unless you check md5sum20:06
plainbut ive alreadty installed it onto another pc, the same disc20:06
djura-santhat does not mean that the iso file is correct!20:07
plain:\20:07
plainit doesnt?20:07
djura-sannope.20:07
djura-san:(20:07
plainwell what does it mean then?20:07
_Techie_if the md5 doesnt match then the disc is not a perfect copy20:08
djura-sani dont know20:08
_Techie_making it "defective"20:08
_Techie_however a defective product may still function, however it will most likely not function properly20:08
plainoh i see20:08
djura-sanplain, did you tried to let 10s in login manager to try autologin?20:09
plainwell, not yet20:09
djura-sanokay20:09
djura-san:]20:09
plainbooting from a cd takes long :o20:09
djura-sanyes it does20:10
SahkolihaaWell, CDs have very low transfer rates. :)20:10
_Techie_downloading and burning a new copy takes awhile, but if it gets the job done then its worth it20:11
SahkolihaaI usually burn images to a DVD - speeds it up a bit.20:11
plainwell i just built this new pc.20:11
SahkolihaaRW, of course.20:11
plainfrom my old one, so it'd be unlikely for me to rebuild the old one again to burn a cd20:11
SahkolihaaI actually had to format a drive earlier due to some glitch in unmounting an external drive. :(20:12
SahkolihaaThunar said the files I was copying over had copied, and it looked as if they had. So i went and unmounted the drive.20:12
djura-sanSahkolihaa, i didnt know that. i use dvd rw for my distros...20:12
plainbummer20:12
SahkolihaaThe 160 drive then starting to go nuts with read/write errors.20:12
SahkolihaaTurned out it hadn't copied the files entirely.20:12
Sahkolihaacorrupted the file systems on it. Format fixed it, thankfully.20:13
Sahkolihaasystem*20:13
_Techie_wow, that sucks20:13
SahkolihaaReally have no clue what happened.20:13
djura-sanyeah... big time20:13
SahkolihaaWell, -how- it happened rather.20:13
SahkolihaaI didn't lose any data - got an 80GB just for backups. :)20:14
SahkolihaaRemember people - always keep a backup of your important files.20:14
djura-sanSahkolihaa, thinking forward :)20:14
