faLUCEhi. I'm noting that every time I launch a video application (for example: playing a movie) I have a high CPU comsumption (about 50% per application) .  I suspect that this problem has something to do with the hardware acceleration... do you have any suggestion for that?11:03
_Pete_what kind of video / cpu?11:05
faLUCE_Pete_: about the cpu: the same cpu on another machine doesn't have problems. about the video: how can I check it?11:07

riboflavinis there any way to get xfapplet in the panel to work with the vanilla gnome main menu (NOT the new main-menu, like the package)? Although that menu is an option to add to the gnome-panel, if I start it, it isn't an option in xfapplet, and I haven't been able to find out why or how I can make it one. Anybody know?14:07

likemindeadWhat's your hardware, faLUCE?16:04
faLUCElikemindead: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GME Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)16:08
likemindeadYeah... Intel graphics are still wonky at the moment. :-\16:08
faLUCElikemindead: and there's not a solution?16:08
likemindeadNot for 9.10 yet.16:09
faLUCElikemindead: what you say is too much strange16:10
likemindeadUh... m'kay.16:10
faLUCElikemindead: whith a VGA Intel GMA950 I don't have any problem16:11
likemindeadI'd fall back to 8.04 which is the Long Term Support release. Much more stable.16:11
faLUCElikemindead: don't answer if you don't know the answer16:11
faLUCEotherwise, you can confuse ubuntu users16:11
likemindeadUh... you're welcome. :-\16:11
Balsaqwhat is the sudo command to change password?16:21
likemindeadpasswd16:24
likemindeadUse sudo if you're changing it for another user16:24
likemindead"passwd your_username" or "sudo passwd username_of_others"16:24
Balsaqits for me, the one i use when i 1st turn on the computer16:25
likemindeadThen you shouldn't need sudo.16:25
Balsaqi tried sudo passwd and it seemed to take it, but it idnt change my password16:25
likemindeadYou included your username? (i.e. "passwd Balsaq new_password_here" ?16:28
Balsaqno i didnt not in sudo, i just put in sudo passwd and went from there...i haven't tried it any other way16:28
likemindeadYou have to tell it what user.16:28
likemindeadEven if you're the only one...16:29
Balsaqok so i go into sudo and type....sudo passwd Blasaq_password_here16:29
likemindeadNo.16:29
likemindeadJust "passwd Balsaq <New_Password>"16:30
Balsaqok so i dump the word sudo16:30
likemindeadShouldn't need it if it's for you & not another user.16:31
Balsaqi am the only user16:31
Balsaqbut when i was in there, i did type sudo passwd, and it did say type new unic password16:32
Balsaqunix*16:32
Balsaqso i thought i was on the right track16:32
Balsaqbut when i wrestarted it hadnt changed16:32

Balsaqi guess...wonder what i did, cuase it acted like it took it-said successful16:33
Balsaqwell igo back downstairs and try to fix it, thanks likeminded16:35
