=== Pici` is now known as Pici === jussio1 is now known as Guest88592 [03:25] anyone running icewm [04:11] How do I configure external protocol handlers? [04:12] For example, I'd like apt: to use apturl. [04:36] I fixed it, more or less, by setting gnome-open as the browser in Preferred Applications, but it seems like a terrible hack [04:57] Evening all, I have a question about setting up wifi. [04:57] under normal vanilla ubuntu, my wifi works fine (after installing the driver). [04:58] however, I just installed xubuntu, and everything goes well up until I install the driver. [04:58] after which point, I'm unable to view any networks around me [04:59] sad face :( [05:29] * j1mc hugs #xubuntu [06:01] <_Techie_> does anyone in here have experience with the DuoX2 modchip?

[06:20] oh ok [06:20] 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] I currently broke my apt-get when it froze and I hit reset [06:20] have to boot into recovery in a bit and do repair broken packages [06:20] Oh yeah [06:21] <_Techie_> i had a jaunty install that was all passworded up perfectly [06:21] so creating a user account, logging out and logging in doesn't work?
