[11:21] <squirrelpimp> hi
[11:23] <squirrelpimp> i'm looking for a way to monitor processes that run on my system for some 30 minutes. Usually i start then and i'd like to become notified upon completion. However i'd prefer some notification area over a popup and i'd also prefer not to mess with the shell starting the process. So the most favourable thing would be having a python script check for process completion and turn some light/knob/website from blue to red/green depending on
[11:23] <squirrelpimp>  the exit code.
[11:23] <squirrelpimp> now the questions: Is there something already implementing this feature? And how can i wait for a process and determine its exit status, if i'm not the parent process?
[12:03] <edson> help meeeeeeeeeeeee
[12:03] <edson> anyone?
[12:04] <Guest8360> can someone please help me?
[12:04] <Guest8360> hellooooo.....?
[12:08] <balvonas> idiot
[12:18] <Guest91348> hello all. have just installed xubuntu9.10. when i want to open stuff from the desktop, or files in the file browser i have to do three click instead of two. anyone seen this before?
[12:38] <knome> balvonas, that's not a very good attitude/manners from you either.
[12:42] <balvonas> i'm a hater what can i say
[14:49] <genoobie> morning all
[14:50] <djura-san> morning
[14:55] <genoobie> oh
[14:56] <genoobie> does OpenOffice require KDE?
[14:56] <djura-san> nope
[14:56] <genoobie> cool, can't wait to install xubuntu
[14:56] <djura-san> but you can use qt if you want for openoffice widgets
[14:56] <djura-san> :)
[14:56] <genoobie> qt?
[14:57] <genoobie> what widgets are you referring to (very little experience here)
[14:57] <genoobie> would you suggest 9.10, or 9.04
[14:57] <genoobie> someone said 9.10 had some bugs
[14:57] <djura-san> aha
[14:57] <djura-san> nothing then
[14:57] <genoobie> my laptop is 256MB + 800 MHz processor, xubuntu would be okay?
[14:57] <djura-san> just install openoffice and go :)
[14:57] <djura-san> it should be but
[14:58] <djura-san> use alternate install
[14:58] <genoobie> oh, b/c the installer is resource intensive?
[14:58] <djura-san> desktop installation requires a little mre ram
[14:58] <djura-san> yeah and no
[14:59] <djura-san> if you use gui installer then there is requrement for that (i belive its 256 but its minimum). for text install there is 128 mb ram or less nedded
[14:59] <djura-san> :)
[14:59] <genoobie> so you say don't install the desktop?
[14:59] <djura-san> no
[14:59] <genoobie> okay understood
[14:59] <djura-san> install desktop but in another way
[14:59] <genoobie> gotcha
[14:59] <djura-san> you candonwload xubuntu 9.10 alternet disk :)
[14:59] <djura-san> *download
[14:59] <djura-san> *alternate
[15:00] <genoobie> let me try that (I'll be Ok with text installer)
[15:00] <genoobie> debating on buying ram to upgrade to 512MB
[15:01] <genoobie> system should run reasonably well on 256 tho no>
[15:01] <genoobie> ?
[15:01] <djura-san> i think so
[15:01] <djura-san> i have 512mb of ram and it runs nice
[15:01] <djura-san> but im not sure for 256
[15:01] <genoobie> def. fster than windows
[15:02] <djura-san> if its slow then use zenwalk since its faster than xubuntu :)
[15:02] <genoobie> last quest, can you point me to the alt install dist?
[15:02] <djura-san> yes
[15:02] <genoobie> zenwalk hmm?
[15:02] <djura-san> one sec please
[15:03] <djura-san> sorry
[15:03] <djura-san> wait
[15:03] <djura-san> on xubuntu site it says it is enoug 192 mb of ram for live disk install
[15:03] <djura-san> hmm
[15:03] <djura-san> maybe its true.
[15:03] <djura-san> check this out
[15:03] <djura-san> http://www.xubuntu.org/get
[15:04] <djura-san> ps. here is alternate xubuntu discs: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/karmic/release/alternate/
[15:04] <djura-san> *here are
[15:04] <genoobie> ok
[15:04] <genoobie> have you used zenwalk?
[15:04] <genoobie> is it >> faster than zenwalk
[15:05] <djura-san> yes i have
[15:05] <genoobie> I mean is it >> faster than xubuntu?
[15:05] <djura-san> zenwalk is faster than xubuntu
[15:05] <genoobie> how is the hardware detection?
[15:05] <genoobie> =?
[15:05] <djura-san> not >> but >
[15:05] <djura-san> well
[15:05] <djura-san> go ti #zenwalk
[15:05] <djura-san> *to
[15:05] <djura-san> ask there (we will not flame here)
[15:06] <genoobie> so I'd probably be better off with xubuntu as a first go, then try zenwalk when I'm comfortable
[15:06] <djura-san> yes
[15:06] <djura-san> that is nice resolve
[15:06] <djura-san> :)
[15:07] <genoobie> okay then, I'll bbl
[15:07] <genoobie> downloading now
[15:07] <djura-san> dont forget to use torrent so you can share xubuntu with other leches :)
[16:37] <mikubuntu> am i in?  don't see any chatter ..
[16:38] <djura-san> :)
[16:38] <mikubuntu> k, thx
[16:38] <mikubuntu> waiting for a friend, gonna help her install here
[16:38] <djura-san> okay then
[16:38] <djura-san> im here and so are many friends :)
[16:39] <Ov3rf10w> yea :)
[17:50] <emmy> some sort of system messages aren't showing up correctly.
[17:51] <emmy> It is like the place I would see a dialog box of some kind, it just shows up as a black rectangle like it won't draw to the screen.
[18:09] <mikubuntu> guys i stopped the update manager midstream and now have a milion error messages .. is that a job for 'autoremove' corrupted files?
[18:09] <djura-san> no
[18:09] <djura-san> apt-get install -f
[18:09] <djura-san> then use autoremove
[18:11] <mikubuntu> sudo apt-get install -f  ??
[18:12] <djura-san> da
[18:12] <djura-san> sorry. yes
[18:12] <mikubuntu> djura-san, and then    sudo apt-get autoremove   ??
[18:13] <djura-san> yes
[18:13] <djura-san> try it
[18:13] <djura-san> or you can manually remove apps that are conflicting
[18:13] <djura-san> but its better to use "-f" option in apt-get
[18:13] <djura-san> :)
[18:15] <mikubuntu> ok, thanks, i'm helping someone remote also, and i think i overloaded the synaptic installer
[18:15] <mikubuntu> be back soon i'm sure, thx again
[18:16] <emmy> does anyone know why xubuntu would have odd graphics for me
[18:19] <djura-san> emmy it can be many things.
[18:19] <djura-san> this looks like notifier error
[18:20] <djura-san> so you can disable it
[18:20] <djura-san> tell us, when can you see those "odd" graphics
[18:20] <djura-san> ?
[18:20] <djura-san> what do you do to produce them?
[18:22] <emmy> djura-san, seems i see it in association with what I assume are messages from network manager, but possibly other notifications.
[18:22] <djura-san> yeah
[18:22] <djura-san> that is notification error
[18:22] <djura-san> so you can remove it but
[18:22] <emmy> where I *assume* a notification would be, or some other dialog, instead I see a black rectangle with some static in it.
[18:22] <djura-san> tell me is there any graphic drivers on your system?
[18:22] <emmy> not sure
[18:23] <emmy> i don't remember installing any..
[18:23] <djura-san> that is the problem
[18:23] <djura-san> you saee
[18:23] <djura-san> that notification thing is configured to work with composite efects by default
[18:24] <emmy> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY
[18:24] <emmy> that's my video card.
[18:24] <emmy> is there a way to turn off or to fix something there
[18:24] <djura-san> yes
[18:24] <djura-san> let me check
[18:25] <emmy> oh thankyou
[18:26] <djura-san> use
[18:26] <djura-san> her it is

[18:27] <djura-san> it will do the tricks
[18:27] <djura-san> *trick
[18:27] <emmy> sorry xchat froze up
[18:27] <emmy> djura-san,
[18:28] <djura-san> okay
[18:28] <djura-san> see this page
[18:28] <djura-san> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1360080
[18:28] <djura-san> there is solution
[18:28] <emmy> thanks
[18:33] <emmy> djura-san, do you know why xubuntu 9.10 can let me use wifi when it's not encrypted but it can't work with even wep ?
[18:33] <djura-san> nope
[18:33] <djura-san> im not familiar with wifi
[18:33] <emmy> hm, it's very tricky on linux. it never really works.
[18:33] <djura-san> ask in #ubuntu
[18:33] <djura-san> there must be a way
[18:33] <djura-san> :)
[18:36] <Sysi> maybe driver is just bad
[18:38] <emmy> i'm sure it isn't any good but how do you get a better one
