raquelhi, I just switched from ubuntu to xubuntu by apt-getting all the xubuntu packages, but my memory footprint is still at 283MB, is this normal or do I need to uninstall some ubuntu programs/processes/etc to reduce the memory footprint?08:22

bsulzerhi ev'rybody. how do i disable the 'feature' of moving a window to the next workspace by dragging them to the borders of the screen?09:24
bsulzeri have found out, that i've got another problem: i have a dual screen, but it seems, that the second screen is just another workspace. bug or feature?09:30
TheSheepdepends on how you configured it, you can do it in many ways09:30

ubottuInformation about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama09:30
bsulzerTheSheep: thx a lot09:33
bsulzerhi, it's me again.10:26
bsulzeri'm looking for a list of commands to define my own keyboard shortcuts10:27
bsulzerfor clarification: shortcut: SuperL + Right <command for moving window to next workspace> i'm looking for the <...>10:28
bsulzer!shortcuts10:30
ubottuKeyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts10:30
bsulzerubottu: doesn't work10:31
ubottuDoesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.10:31

Rahinsoosomone for help?12:29
Rahinsoo*someone :)12:30
psycho_oreoshave you actually tried clean install?12:30
Rahinsooyes and I test the install to 9.10 directly on this computer but I had the same result...12:32
RahinsooI found this link : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/inde...t-1307879.html. It is a solution?12:41
Rahinsoono solution for my problem?12:52
psycho_oreosthat link wouldn't work12:53
psycho_oreosand it sounds like xorg driver issue12:53
djura-sanRahinsoo, can you repeat the prob please?12:55

djura-santhat is common thing when you have no display drivers installed. Do yu have it installed?12:56
RahinsooI don't no12:56
djura-sanhmm.12:56
djura-sanwait 1s12:57
psycho_oreosI think since 8.10 the drivers are autodetected12:57
RahinsooI think that Driver Intel is auto on this version...12:57
djura-sanis that so?12:58
djura-santhen it sounds like xorg needs extra tuning...12:58
* djura-san is not so familiar with that12:58
djura-sanwhat baout your Xorg log?12:59
djura-san*about13:00
psycho_oreosthese days xorg.conf is mostly blank, there is a way to manually work with it... by painfully extracting lines from xorg.0.log if they contain relevant video parameters and add them in13:00
Rahinsoomodify xorg.conf isn't the solution?13:02
psycho_oreosmodifying is but you have to modify it correctly or it'll get ignored or spew out errors and leaving you in CLI13:03
Rahinsooand install manual the driver?13:04
psycho_oreosIts hard for me to say because I don't have that chipset.. I must mention that Intel video chipsets can be annoying at times13:05
psycho_oreosI would personally try out various modes and various drivers.. if none of them gives you what you need, try vesa mode or even set vesa as failback13:06
Rahinsoowhat is vesa and  various modes?13:09
psycho_oreoshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA13:10
psycho_oreosvarious modes as in the resolution and refresh rates.. or you can try and use the settings as specified from your current setup.. which means you'll need to examine the xorg.0.log from your current 8.10 setup13:11
RahinsooI must upgrade to 8.10...13:13
psycho_oreoserr13:14
psycho_oreosI meant 8.0413:14
psycho_oreosmisread13:14
Rahinsoono problem^^13:15
Rahinsoobut I don't know to do try various modes and various driver...13:20

planktum_ei all, someone told me to try this channel.. so here am i14:58
planktum_i need to regenerate the xfce4 applications menu14:58
planktum_is there a way to automatically regenerate the applications menu?15:00
planktum_or do i have the only and harsh route of doing it manually?15:00
knomeplanktum_, in karmic, there is no menu editor for xfce15:06
knomeplanktum_, because xfce 4.6 didn't have one, so yes, you'd have to go the manual way15:06
planktum_knome, thanks.. i wont expend the time on that.. to many new applis15:11
planktum_argg15:11
planktum_thanks for the answer15:11

planktum_knome, one last question15:15
knomesure15:15
planktum_i cant seem to find a way to change my xfce4 lang (localization)15:16
planktum_have installed few more packages15:16
planktum_but, since the applications menu is not updated15:16
planktum_im unsure if there is a helper application to switch15:16
planktum_im under karmic15:17
planktum_i see nothing under System or Settings related to language15:18
knomeplanktum_, applications -> system -> language support15:18
planktum_the threads i find are for older xfce4 versions that seemed to have such thing15:18
knomeshould exist15:18
planktum_not in my install, that comes from a "multimedia" related distro15:19
planktum_any idea on how to add such thing?15:19
knomelet me see15:19
planktum_i have got all related to lang support via synaptic15:19

SememmonHm.. there a way to get xfce to run a script on logout? need to unmount my samba shares before NM decides to drop.19:00
likemindeadThere's definitely a way, Sememmon, but I don't know. Anything's possible in Linux. ;-)19:15
Sememmon-_-19:23
pipedreambombhello, anyone there? sorry i'm an irc noob as well as a linux one :)19:24
likemindeadWhat's up, pipedreambomb?19:25
Besogonlikemindead, Where did you read that?19:26
likemindeadEh?19:27
BesogonSome imagine Pipe which can be burst by therorists... :D19:28
likemindeadSememmon, could you insert something here: http://wiki.xfce.org/tips#handle_acpi_event_for_power_button_show_xfce_logout_options ?19:29
likemindeadIn one of those Xfce shutdown files?19:29
Sememmonthat looks to be just for handling acpi events with the power button19:31
likemindeadSome of it, yeah, but what about the "/usr/local/sbin/xfce4-user-session-shutdown.sh" file?19:32
Sememmonthat is being called by the acpi event.19:33
likemindeadSurely what you're wanting has to be close to that.19:33
* genii-around sips his coffee and pokes listlessly at genii_20:10
BesogonI think that there is no way to easy make local repositary20:17
samileHey is there any way to auto login after suspend20:17
_Techie_samile, i would think so, however i cant think of anything other than a long excessive script which i dont know how to make20:22
_Techie_anyway, bbs | remaking my xbox HDD20:23
samileThanks, I asked in #xfce and they said its a distro specific thing20:23
