| LucidFox | How do I configure external protocol handlers? | 04:11 |
| LucidFox | For example, I'd like apt: to use apturl. | 04:12 |
| LucidFox | I fixed it, more or less, by setting gnome-open as the browser in Preferred Applications, but it seems like a terrible hack | 04:36 |
| paulmops | Evening all, I have a question about setting up wifi. | 04:57 |
| paulmops | under normal vanilla ubuntu, my wifi works fine (after installing the driver). | 04:57 |
| paulmops | however, I just installed xubuntu, and everything goes well up until I install the driver. | 04:58 |
| paulmops | after which point, I'm unable to view any networks around me | 04:58 |
| paulmops | sad face :( | 04:59 |

| photobug21 | hey I have to say I like xubuntu | 06:16 |
| photobug21 | running it off my 8GB flash drive | 06:16 |
| _Techie_ | grats, is it karmic that your running off of it | 06:16 |
| photobug21 | yes | 06:17 |
| photobug21 | thanks :) | 06:17 |
| _Techie_ | i personaly was really put off using karmic on a USB | 06:17 |
| _Techie_ | as the only way to get it booting perfectly on every pc is to make a persistant copy of the livecd | 06:18 |
| _Techie_ | however karmic recreates the ubuntu user at boot, so any files i had on my drive were absolutely unprotected | 06:18 |
| photobug21 | Oh try www.pendrivelinux.com | 06:19 |
| _Techie_ | been there done that | 06:19 |
| photobug21 | you need windows currently to make the live usb with persistence | 06:19 |
| photobug21 | mine works | 06:19 |
| _Techie_ | mine did too | 06:19 |
| photobug21 | Ok I didn't understand hehe | 06:20 |
| _Techie_ | well up untill i managed to brick my USB drive | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | so by unprotected what do you mean? | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | oh ok | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | yeah I have to remember to backup | 06:20 |
| _Techie_ | when i say unprotected, people could boot it and log in without a password | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | I currently broke my apt-get when it froze and I hit reset | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | have to boot into recovery in a bit and do repair broken packages | 06:20 |
| photobug21 | Oh yeah | 06:20 |
| _Techie_ | i had a jaunty install that was all passworded up perfectly | 06:21 |
| photobug21 | so creating a user account, logging out and logging in doesn't work? | 06:21 |
| photobug21 | it didn't so far | 06:21 |
| _Techie_ | nope, it wont | 06:21 |
| _Techie_ | i usually modify the default account | 06:21 |
| photobug21 | Weird I tried Linux Mint 8 and it worked fine | 06:21 |
| photobug21 | just wanted to try this it has a lightweight window manager | 06:21 |
| photobug21 | that is a pain | 06:22 |
| photobug21 | I want the user thing to work | 06:22 |
| photobug21 | but otherwise it's faster than Linux Mint 8 since 8 uses Gnome | 06:22 |
| photobug21 | and I've got a really old desktop | 06:22 |
| _Techie_ | i want to try linux on my xbox sometime | 06:23 |
| photobug21 | yeah that'd be nice | 06:23 |
| _Techie_ | i already have a web browser for it | 06:24 |
| photobug21 | I don't have an xbox right now | 06:24 |
| photobug21 | cool | 06:24 |
| _Techie_ | did you used to have one? | 06:24 |
| photobug21 | nope | 06:25 |
| photobug21 | never owned a console | 06:25 |
| photobug21 | other than an old TI that took cartridges | 06:25 |
| photobug21 | had an atari 2600 and radio shack pong | 06:26 |
| photobug21 | shared it with siblings | 06:26 |
| photobug21 | and sega genesis | 06:26 |
| photobug21 | brb I have to reboot and repair these packages I need open office | 06:26 |
| photobug21 | btw nice to meet you :) | 06:26 |
| _Techie_ | same | 06:26 |
| photobug21 | brb :) | 06:26 |

| Sachse_Siechtum | Hello folks | 20:34 |
| photobug21 | hi! | 20:34 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | I'm a new user in Xubuntu. | 20:34 |
| photobug21 | It's nice | 20:34 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | Using Windows XP only for games now and Xubuntu for else :-) | 20:34 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | so...I have a problem with the login screen which kinda bothers me | 20:35 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | I have to login several times til I get to the desktop | 20:35 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | I read in one thread on the net that might be a problem with not using the def. resolution | 20:35 |
| photobug21 | Yeah it's decent and that'll be fixed soon I bet | 20:36 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | but I don't wanna change the res. since I'm comfortable working with it | 20:36 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | hmm ok. | 20:36 |
| photobug21 | Yeah if it works must not be wrong | 20:37 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | its just kinda annoying *laughs* once I had to login about 20 times... | 20:37 |
| Sachse_Siechtum | but other than that I really like Xubuntu :-) | 20:38 |

| photobug21 | oh man right now trying linux mint, my xubuntu on flash drive got borked | 20:40 |
| photobug21 | same thing but xubuntu is faster | 20:40 |
| photobug21 | lightweight window manager | 20:40 |
| Siechtum_away | I see | 20:40 |
| photobug21 | Linux Mint 8 is based on ubuntu | 20:40 |
| photobug21 | but I want xubuntu for my flash drive | 20:40 |
| photobug21 | works on more hardware | 20:41 |
| Siechtum_away | I bet | 20:43 |
| Siechtum_away | hmm I was wondering...whats the main difference between xubuntu and Kubuntu? (except based on Gnome and KDE) | 20:44 |
| Siechtum_away | or differences | 20:44 |
| photobug21 | Xubuntu is actually XFCE but not much diff I guess | 20:45 |
| photobug21 | Not sure | 20:45 |
| photobug21 | I never read their faq | 20:45 |
| Siechtum_away | I just read the wiki entry on both | 20:45 |
| Siechtum_away | so do you use Linux distros also for gaming? | 20:46 |
| photobug21 | Nope but used to with cedega | 20:46 |
| photobug21 | my nvidia card broke | 20:47 |
| photobug21 | I have a super old ATI in this now | 20:47 |
| Siechtum_away | that sucks. | 20:47 |
| Siechtum_away | oh thats funny...some month ago my old ATI Radeon card broke...I got an nvidia card now | 20:47 |
| photobug21 | yeah hehe I don't enjoy gaming so much now | 20:47 |
| photobug21 | I do like photography though | 20:47 |
| Siechtum_away | oh I do too | 20:47 |
| Siechtum_away | I really need some good photo equipment | 20:48 |
| photobug21 | You can use a point and shoot to take good photos | 20:48 |
| photobug21 | check out my flickr I have a low end Nikon | 20:48 |
| photobug21 | http://www.flickr.com/sunlizard4sun | 20:48 |
