| justgreg1 | helo | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | i have a big problem | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | shit | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | not here too | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | can anyone read what i am writing | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | this is bad | 08:10 |
| justgreg1 | this is very bad | 08:10 |
| Balsaq | good morning justgreg1 | 08:11 |
| justgreg1 | good morning | 08:11 |
| justgreg1 | i have a really big problem with my computer | 08:11 |
| Balsaq | try to maintain your composure | 08:11 |
| justgreg1 | i am good | 08:12 |
| justgreg1 | but i still have a serious problem | 08:12 |
| justgreg1 | my text is whoing up as wingdings | 08:12 |
| justgreg1 | i can't read anything | 08:13 |
| justgreg1 | including what you are writing to me | 08:13 |
| justgreg1 | however if i type something into google it shows up in english | 08:13 |
| Balsaq | lets see a screenshot | 08:14 |
| justgreg1 | ok i think i have done that | 08:15 |
| justgreg1 | how do i send it to you | 08:15 |
| TheSheep | you probably changed your system font to something silly | 08:15 |
| TheSheep | (or it changed on its own) | 08:15 |
| justgreg1 | i am leaning more towards it doing it on its own | 08:16 |
| justgreg1 | cause when it happened i wasn't changing setting i was watching a movie | 08:17 |
| justgreg1 | so how do i send you the screenshot? | 08:17 |
| TheSheep | anyways, try changing it back to something sane in the settings->appearance (an icon of switches, and then a color wheel icon) | 08:17 |
| TheSheep | use some imagebin or something | 08:17 |
| TheSheep | http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | 08:18 |
| justgreg1 | ok | 08:19 |
| TheSheep | botta run | 08:19 |
| TheSheep | gotta | 08:19 |
| justgreg1 | well i think its better now | 08:19 |
| justgreg1 | thanks | 08:19 |
| Balsaq | ? | 08:20 |
| TheSheep | apparently it helped :) | 08:21 |
| Balsaq | you are good? | 08:21 |
| TheSheep | can't complain, you? | 08:21 |
| Balsaq | nope | 08:21 |
| Balsaq | my xubuntu never breaks, rock solid, lean and mean OS. | 08:22 |
| Balsaq | i am hoping to someday understand it well enough to offer help to others | 08:25 |

| `mOOse` | hmm | 15:28 |
| Soul_Shadow | WTF is mp3el a spanish mp3 player?? when I search it I get spanish pages | 15:29 |
| `mOOse` | http://tinyurl.com/yeujzat try that Soul_Shadow | 15:29 |
| `mOOse` | google translates you know | 15:30 |
| Soul_Shadow | does not matter I do not want a spic site I want a file mp3el | 15:31 |
| Soul_Shadow | it thinks mp3el is spanish | 15:31 |
| `mOOse` | no I don't think so from what little reading I just did | 15:32 |
| `mOOse` | you went to the first hit on google right? | 15:32 |
| Soul_Shadow | first to last hit on first page | 15:33 |
| Soul_Shadow | I am installing lame now might have it | 15:33 |
| Soul_Shadow | it now has lame when I installed acm | 15:34 |
| Soul_Shadow | looks like that got it | 15:36 |
| Soul_Shadow | lemme get xmms installed & try it | 15:36 |
| * `mOOse` fogs his nails and looks at them... | 15:38 | |
| Soul_Shadow | ok how do I get through firewall :P | 15:38 |
| `mOOse` | um | 15:39 |
| Soul_Shadow | xmms is installed but not in menu... | 15:39 |
| `mOOse` | I use firestarter | 15:40 |
| Soul_Shadow | dunno what I got.. I installed & updated.. so probly basic firewall | 15:41 |
| Soul_Shadow | why xmms not working though .... | 15:41 |
| eXpl0i7 | install audacious | 15:41 |
| Soul_Shadow | Xmms is winamp alt winamp is god | 15:42 |
| ablomen | Soul_Shadow, xmms has not been updated since 1924, so there are more and more bugs getting in there with new libs etc | 15:42 |
| Soul_Shadow | and it runs best with broadwave | 15:42 |
| Soul_Shadow | NEVER had issues with xmms | 15:43 |
| eXpl0i7 | soul try sudo apt-get install audacious :) it's like a winamp | 15:43 |
| ablomen | audacious is spawned from it | 15:43 |
| ablomen | "Its advanced audio playback engine is considerably more powerful than GStreamer. Audacious is a fork of Beep Media Player (BMP), which itself forked from XMMS" | 15:43 |
| Soul_Shadow | If I can get this rpm open I can install winamp :P | 15:43 |
| Soul_Shadow | know what the rpm extractor/converter package is named | 15:44 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: don't install rpms | 15:44 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: use programs from the repositories | 15:44 |
| Soul_Shadow | winamp is not there :P I use whats known | 15:45 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: winamp is a windows application | 15:45 |
| Soul_Shadow | EEennnnnt wrong its linux also | 15:45 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: audacius is the closest alternative | 15:45 |
| Soul_Shadow | and I do not know how broadwave will funcion with it | 15:46 |
| Soul_Shadow | btw how would I automount my ntfs partition?? | 15:47 |
| TheSheep | !ntfs | 15:48 |
| ubottu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 15:48 |

| eXpl0i7 | Soul_Shadow: you must to edit fstab file /etc/fstab | 15:58 |
| eXpl0i7 | asg google how to .... | 15:58 |
| bazhang | !fstab | 15:58 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:58 |
| bazhang | or check that | 15:59 |

| Soul_Shadow | thx | 15:59 |
| bazhang | np | 15:59 |
| rcscomp | I just restarted my xubuntu install after a raid controller RMA replacement and xubuntu won't boot. It says /dev/mapper/raidvg-ubroot doesn't exist. However, once I am into initramfs, it clearly exists. | 16:00 |

| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: you can't have a pony | 16:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | I WANT my Pony... & my cake & my oriental hooker too.. | 16:10 |
| bazhang | Soul_Shadow, please keep it family friendly and stay on topic | 16:10 |
| Soul_Shadow | what did they do to linux that wiknamp will not run anymore?? & my hooker is VERY family freindly | 16:11 |
| Soul_Shadow | DO not be a douche | 16:12 |
| Soul_Shadow | seriously take a joke | 16:12 |
| bazhang | Soul_Shadow, stay on topic and watch the language | 16:12 |
| rcscomp | Anyone have some advice on how to get my OS booting again? I get an error that the LVM mapper can not be found. But once I am dropped to BusyBox, its there in /dev and I can mount it just fine. | 16:12 |
| Soul_Shadow | I am watching it... Its rated PG family freindly... | 16:13 |
| Soul_Shadow | corruption?? | 16:13 |
| Soul_Shadow | do a fschk | 16:13 |
| rcscomp | don't think so, but fschk isn't a command in busybox anyway | 16:14 |
| Soul_Shadow | then goto #busybox cus I do nto use it | 16:14 |
| bazhang | winamp does not run on linux unless you mean via wine | 16:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | can you boot into command prompt? | 16:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | Baz it has run on linux I had it before.. | 16:15 |
| rcscomp | well, I have a command prompt, but its the initramfs/busybox prompt which is what you get when the kernel can't load the root file system (or so it appears) | 16:16 |
| Soul_Shadow | then tell it to reboot | 16:16 |
| Soul_Shadow | then it should try to load normal os | 16:17 |
| rcscomp | i have rebooted several times | 16:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | I had same error earlyer | 16:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | you MUST type reboot | 16:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | or you can use a live cd & fschk from there in terminal | 16:18 |
| Soul_Shadow | I had same error earlyer when I was on battery booting up & acpi cramped | 16:18 |
| Soul_Shadow | always have a live cd handy | 16:19 |
| Soul_Shadow | or live usb | 16:20 |

| Soul_Shadow | I cleared my chat earlyer | 16:43 |
| bazhang | Soul_Shadow, did you read the fstab link yet? | 16:43 |
| Soul_Shadow | fstab is edited | 16:43 |
| Soul_Shadow | do I have to edit a startup or partition config file also? | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | no | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | just do 'sudo mount -a' | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | and it will mount | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | (or leave errors in your dmesg) | 16:44 |
| Soul_Shadow | thank u... but I want it yto mount on start | 16:44 |
| Soul_Shadow | to* | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | it will | 16:44 |
| eXpl0i7 | omg | 16:44 |
| TheSheep | mount -a is called at startup automatically | 16:44 |
| eXpl0i7 | yea | 16:44 |
| Soul_Shadow | so put mount -a wher because I use the -a & it never stays when I restart | 16:45 |
| Soul_Shadow | brb I show u :P | 16:45 |
| eXpl0i7 | lol | 16:45 |
| `mOOse` | heh | 16:46 |
| eXpl0i7 | bazhang: did you know something about nessus? | 16:46 |
| `mOOse` | too much chocolate milk or somethin | 16:46 |
| eXpl0i7 | xD | 16:46 |
| bazhang | eXpl0i7, nessus? what's that | 16:46 |
| TheSheep | !info nessus | 16:46 |
| ubottu | Package nessus does not exist in karmic | 16:46 |
| eXpl0i7 | i use sudo apt-get install nessus nessusd | 16:47 |
| eXpl0i7 | :) | 16:47 |
| bazhang | !find nessus | 16:47 |
| ubottu | File nessus found in fvwm-crystal, openvas-server-dev, picon-usenix, piwi, selinux-policy-default (and 6 others) | 16:47 |
| eXpl0i7 | nessus is a network vuln scanner | 16:47 |
| eXpl0i7 | :) | 16:47 |
| bazhang | sorry not heard of it | 16:47 |
| eXpl0i7 | ok | 16:47 |
| `mOOse` | bazhang: does the find and info command access a formal db of some kind? | 16:48 |
| `mOOse` | that's pretty cool | 16:48 |
| TheSheep | `mOOse`: the same as packages.ubuntu.com | 16:48 |
| bazhang | `mOOse`, yep, usually I /msg ubottu info package or find packagerelatedname | 16:48 |
| `mOOse` | ic | 16:49 |
| bazhang | handy to keep a PM open with the bot :) | 16:49 |
| `mOOse` | that's pretty righteous | 16:49 |
| `mOOse` | yes I can see that it would be | 16:49 |
| bazhang | tons of factoids as well | 16:49 |
| bazhang | !bot | 16:49 |
| ubottu | Hi! I'm #xubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 16:49 |
| bazhang | ^^ | 16:49 |
| `mOOse` | is there a command list of some kind? | 16:49 |
| `mOOse` | ok | 16:49 |
| `mOOse` | thanks | 16:49 |
| bazhang | thats it :) | 16:49 |
| bazhang | factoids.cgi one | 16:50 |
| eXpl0i7 | how to open .sqlite file? mozilla cookie file...some application or something else? | 16:50 |
| vinnl | Hmm, perhaps Openoffice.org Base can do that | 16:51 |
| eXpl0i7 | vinnl: i tryed | 16:51 |
| eXpl0i7 | no | 16:51 |
| eXpl0i7 | in windows can be opened with notepad xD | 16:51 |
| vinnl | You can, btw, view cookies in Firefox | 16:51 |
| Soul_Shadow | screw fstab can I just automunt using the shortcut & also put thunar /mnt/ntfs/ after the mount -a command? | 16:51 |
| eXpl0i7 | how? | 16:51 |
| vinnl | Oh, then I suppose mousepad can do it as well | 16:51 |
| vinnl | Let me see | 16:51 |
| Soul_Shadow | ok what I miss | 16:52 |
| eXpl0i7 | mousepad, gedit....no | 16:52 |
| `mOOse` | in order for your ntfs to mount at boot you need to edit your fstab | 16:52 |
| vinnl | eXpl0i7, Edit->Preferences, Remove Individual Cookies | 16:52 |
| eXpl0i7 | no to remove | 16:52 |
| `mOOse` | !fstab | 16:52 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 16:52 |
| `mOOse` | you'd really do to read those Soul_Shadow | 16:53 |
| Soul_Shadow | well can I jsut put the mount command in launcher & have it also open that dir? | 16:53 |
| eXpl0i7 | vinnl: open cookie for reading | 16:53 |
| vinnl | eXpl0i7, you can also view them there | 16:53 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: sure, write a text file with #!/bin/bash in the first line and the required commands in next lines, and give it a x (execute) permission | 16:53 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: then when you run it, it will execute those commands | 16:53 |
| Soul_Shadow | I used the fstab & editied it correctly & still did not load | 16:53 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: any errors in dmesg? | 16:54 |
| eXpl0i7 | vinnl: tnx :) | 16:54 |
| vinnl | yw :) | 16:54 |
| Soul_Shadow | thats why I am asking if I can put the sudo mount -a command in the launcher shortcut & also add thunar /mnt/ntfs/ to open the dir | 16:54 |
| Soul_Shadow | none asked for a password on start | 16:54 |
| Soul_Shadow | *desktop open* aka start* | 16:55 |
| `mOOse` | if you sudo mount -a and it doesn't mount then you have a syntax or other error in your fstab | 16:55 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: 'mount -a' is ran at computer startup, it won't ask for password because it is being run as root already | 16:56 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: if it worked from terminal, it should work at startup too | 16:56 |
| Soul_Shadow | hhhmmm... you are dodging my other question... CAN I use the launcher shortcut to mount it when I want to & open the mounted dir? | 16:58 |
| Soul_Shadow | I know puppy linux does it but not sure of the command structure to do it | 16:58 |
| TheSheep | Soul_Shadow: I answered your other question already, maybe you should also read what we write :) | 16:59 |
| Soul_Shadow | and I quoted screw fstab :P I am trying to get it mounted via launcher.. | 16:59 |
| Soul_Shadow | My command is this: sudo mount -a -t /dev/sda1/ ntfs /mnt/ntfs/ Now can I use a | or do I need a ; to continue another command efter this? | 17:01 |
| TheSheep | it's wrong | 17:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | after* | 17:02 |
| TheSheep | mount -a doesn't take any other argumkents | 17:02 |
| TheSheep | arguments | 17:02 |
| TheSheep | it's just 'sudo mount -a' | 17:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | yeah I see lol | 17:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | typo sorry | 17:02 |
| TheSheep | it takes all the rest from /etc/fstba | 17:02 |
| TheSheep | fstab | 17:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | so sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1/ /mnt/ntfs correct | 17:02 |
| Soul_Shadow | doing that in launcher mounts it but how do I put extra command to open the /mnt/ntfs in thunar afterwards? | 17:03 |
| TheSheep | yeah, use 'gksu' instead of 'sudo' to have a gui for the password | 17:03 |
| TheSheep | because it will ask for the password the first time | 17:03 |
| Soul_Shadow | well im trying to get it to load without password maybe su root passwordhere then the command? ther has to be easyer way to enter the command & pass | 17:04 |
| TheSheep | what did you put in the fstab exactly that it doesn't work? | 17:06 |
| TheSheep | anyways, I have to run now, good luck | 17:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | the mount -a -t ntfs /dev/sda1/ /mnt/ntfs/ | 17:06 |
| Soul_Shadow | but will it ask for the pass every time I click it?? | 17:07 |
| eXpl0i7 | sudo request a pass | 17:08 |
| Soul_Shadow | I know but I am trying to allow it ot automaticly put the pass in & then open the dir using thunar | 17:09 |
| eXpl0i7 | hmmm | 17:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | instead of putting in a pass every time I want to mount & launvh it | 17:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | using launcher to try & mount & open the dir after | 17:09 |
| Soul_Shadow | what do I need to put after the last command to continue another command? | 17:10 |
| Soul_Shadow | ; & | does nothing im thinking , ?? | 17:10 |
| eXpl0i7 | try to create some .sh script | 17:10 |
| Soul_Shadow | I never made an sh script that basicly like using the perminal commands correct? | 17:11 |
| eXpl0i7 | i go to try make some script.... | 17:12 |
| Soul_Shadow | lol sh is actually like batch files only more commands :P DUH on me | 17:12 |
| Soul_Shadow | im making one now :P | 17:13 |
| Soul_Shadow | thank u | 17:13 |
| vinnl | Soul_Shadow, you could also try to use exo-mount | 17:13 |
| Lusule | hi guys, can someone help me out with restoring grub after a windows install please? I think I'm still on an old version of Ubuntu | 17:13 |
| vinnl | !grub | 17:14 |
| ubottu | grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 17:14 |
| vinnl | Lusule, there :) | 17:14 |
| Lusule | I tried using that guide, vinnl, but I got all confused because I haven't been able to auto-mount my xubuntu partition, I had to do it manually into /mnt/temp, so nothing's where it should be | 17:15 |
| Lusule | atm i'm running off a live-pen | 17:15 |
| `mOOse` | isn't there some law or something that you have to mount foreign filesystems (cdroms too) in media, and not mnt? | 17:15 |
| vinnl | It doesn't really matter | 17:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | no its a HD not media nature | 17:15 |
| Lusule | i was always taught to use mnt, so that's what i use | 17:15 |
| vinnl | But hmm, then I don't know :S | 17:15 |
| Soul_Shadow | media is for flash cdtom floppy & whatnot | 17:16 |
| Soul_Shadow | cdrom* | 17:16 |
| Soul_Shadow | aka removable | 17:16 |
| Soul_Shadow | looks liek it works :P lemme unmount & try again :P | 17:16 |
| `mOOse` | ok cause I seem to remember once upon a time that ubuntu wouldn't recognise the fs if it wasn't in media - and now that I think about it - it was a usb drive | 17:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | ubuntu 1.0?? :P | 17:17 |
| `mOOse` | heh shush you | 17:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | I started in ubuntu 3.x lmao | 17:17 |
| `mOOse` | slackware 1.6 here | 17:17 |
| Soul_Shadow | think it was 3.4 lol | 17:18 |
| bazhang | !4.10 | 17:18 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) was the first release of Ubuntu. End Of Life: April 30, 2006. See !eol for more details. | 17:18 |
| Lusule | vinnl that second guide seems a bit more helpful, thanks :) | 17:18 |
| `mOOse` | although I did tend to ignore it in favor of my SCO box in the corner | 17:18 |
| charlie-tca | The debian guides say use /media for removable drives; you may optionally use /mnt for other items | 17:18 |
| `mOOse` | thanks charlie-tca | 17:18 |
| vinnl | Lusule, ah, great :) | 17:19 |
| Soul_Shadow | well yes 3.4 was unofficial release beta testing but I would have to look at my cd to see if it was 3.4 or 4.1 :P | 17:19 |
| Lusule | right i'm going to reboot and see if that worked, thanks again! | 17:19 |
| * charlie-tca thinks it is just trivia | 17:19 | |
| Soul_Shadow | yeha how cus I cannot unmount | 17:19 |
| vinnl | OK, I'm off, bye everybody | 17:19 |
| Soul_Shadow | nvm | 17:19 |
| Soul_Shadow | l8tr | 17:20 |
| Soul_Shadow | I will try my script :P | 17:20 |
| Soul_Shadow | yep that failed using launcher | 17:22 |
| Soul_Shadow | damn caps :P it works | 17:23 |
| Soul_Shadow | im an oficial scriptor lol | 17:23 |
| Soul_Shadow | anyone knows how I would put a if /dev/sda1/ = mounted do thunar /mnt/ntfs/ :P | 17:24 |
| Soul_Shadow | im sure that not exact command | 17:24 |
| Soul_Shadow | or will it not matter its attempt of mounting every time I open it | 17:25 |
| Soul_Shadow | sup lus | 17:25 |
| Lusule | yay that worked, thanks :) | 17:25 |
| Lusule | now I just have to work out what to back up, so I can reinstall | 17:25 |

| squalor | hello hello | 17:44 |
| Lusule | hello :) | 17:44 |
| squalor | how are internet people today? | 17:45 |
| squalor | my panel won't start on login, and i can't even get it to start through the terminal | 17:49 |
| squalor | any thoughts? | 17:49 |
| Lusule | don't ask me, i've just logged on for the first time in 6 months | 17:49 |
| likemindead | !xfce4panel | 17:50 |
| likemindead | !panel | 17:50 |
| ubottu | Did you panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/ | 17:50 |
| squalor | well, xcfe4-panel doesn't work | 17:50 |
| squalor | it says the command failed to run | 17:50 |
| charlie-tca | did you delete the files it tells you to | 17:50 |
| charlie-tca | Maybe the app got uninstalled somehow, and you will need to reinstall xfce4-panel | 17:51 |
| squalor | it didn't tell me to delete anything, i'm running a new install of xubuntu on a toshiba nb205 | 17:52 |
| squalor | that seems likely | 17:52 |
| charlie-tca | That web link tells you to delete things, if you read it | 17:52 |
| squalor | i'm poking around trying to find the config files | 17:52 |
| charlie-tca | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | 17:52 |
| squalor | ah | 17:53 |
| squalor | ok | 17:53 |
| squalor | thank you | 17:53 |
| Lusule | what version of xubuntu are we currently on? | 17:56 |
| Lusule | karmic koala? | 17:56 |
| likemindead | Yup. | 17:56 |
| charlie-tca | That is the latest version, Xubuntu 9.10 | 17:56 |
| squalor | hm | 17:56 |
| squalor | karmic | 17:56 |
| squalor | the quick fix didn't work | 17:57 |
| squalor | and trying xcfe4-panel yields no such file or directory | 17:57 |
| squalor | apt-get install xcfe4-panel? | 17:58 |
| charlie-tca | And you tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels#One%20Panel%20Disappeared | 17:58 |
| charlie-tca | which tells you how to delete all the associated files for panels? | 17:59 |
| squalor | ya | 18:00 |
| squalor | no joy | 18:00 |
| charlie-tca | then, yes. Try apt-get install xfce4-panel | 18:00 |
| squalor | couldn't find the package | 18:02 |
| squalor | probably because i'm at school, and everything but http traffic is blocked | 18:02 |
| squalor | so, i'll resume my efforts when i'm at home | 18:02 |
| squalor | thanks for the help | 18:03 |
| Lusule | anyone know how i stop my laptop and external monitor from mirroring each other? | 18:46 |
| alisal | ciao | 18:50 |
| alisal | !list | 18:50 |
| ubottu | This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » | 18:50 |
| TheSheep | !dualhead | Lusule | 18:52 |
| ubottu | Lusule: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama | 18:52 |
| Lusule | TheSheep: thanks. I think I could have problems: I'm using a Toshiba Intel graphics thingy on my laptop | 18:53 |
| TheSheep | Lusule: interl works nice with xrandr | 18:53 |
| TheSheep | !xrandr | 18:53 |
| ubottu | XRandR 1.2 is the new method of running dual screens in !X. Information/HowTo here: http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 | 18:53 |
| TheSheep | intel* | 18:53 |
| Lusule | thanks TheSheep I'll ahve a look at that | 18:53 |
| Lusule | hmm according to this, it should be detecting my second monitor automatically | 18:57 |
| Lusule | maybe i'll see what it does when i've reinstalled | 18:57 |
| `mOOse` | bbl! | 19:00 |
| `mOOse` | ok...all better | 19:33 |
| `mOOse` | anybody got a handle on installing/configuring tor/vidalia/polipo | 19:33 |
| `mOOse` | ? | 19:33 |
| Balsaq | good afternonn raevol. welcome to the land of Xubuntu... | 19:47 |
| `mOOse` | mOO | 19:47 |
| Balsaq | always a pleasure m00se | 19:50 |
| `mOOse` | :) | 19:50 |
| talonstriker | How can I access my windows partition through xubuntu? w/ gnome and kde it'd usually be listed in the file manager | 20:00 |
| charlie-tca | !samba | 20:00 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 20:00 |
| charlie-tca | or !gigolo | 20:00 |
| charlie-tca | !gigolo | 20:01 |
| talonstriker | ok i managed to stumble upon gigolo on my own | 20:01 |
| talonstriker | if i attempt to mount it | 20:01 |
| talonstriker | i get an error message saying that it can't connect | 20:01 |
| charlie-tca | gigolo is just a wrapper for mounting. Check the connections, is the windows partition available? Xfce is not as easy as gnome sometimes, but it works better for some of us. | 20:02 |
| `mOOse` | talonstriker, unless you put your ntfs partitions in fstab, the only way I've figured out how to view them in xubuntu is to open catfish and choose "Other" locations in the folder dropdown | 20:03 |
| `mOOse` | once you do that, then your ntfs drives are visible in thunar | 20:03 |
| `mOOse` | it's kinda funky but that's the best I can give you (assuming that your ntfs is in your machine and not on a network, in which case samba would be your choice) | 20:04 |
| talonstriker | that seemed to work | 20:04 |
| talonstriker | it's listed under the /mnt directory | 20:04 |
| talonstriker | thanks | 20:04 |
| talonstriker | seems to be a bit of a hack >_> | 20:04 |
| `mOOse` | indeed | 20:05 |
| `mOOse` | time to put them in fstab I'm guessing | 20:06 |
| `mOOse` | if you want them to automount | 20:06 |
| raevol | Balsaq: why thank you, sorry i ran off so quick | 20:13 |
| raevol | a good afternoon to you too | 20:13 |
| puxl | hi | 20:30 |
| knome | !hi | puxl | 20:30 |
| ubottu | puxl: Hi! Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 20:30 |
| puxl | i need some help with grub in xubuntu 9.10 | 20:31 |
| Lusule | hi there :) i just reinstalled xubuntu, which was fine, then updated, which was not so fine - now whenever I reboot and get to the log in screen, it gives me the option of choosing user (even though I told it to log me in automatically), I type in the password, and then it just sort of things for a while before bringing me back to the login screen, in an endless loop | 20:36 |
| charlie-tca | !question | puxl | 20:38 |
| ubottu | puxl: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 20:38 |
| puxl | okay, GRUB just halts and waits for my enter to boot the OS, but I already wrote all the necessary things in the /etc/default/grub and did the update-grub command to avoid the halt and make xubuntu auto-start. | 20:41 |
| Lusule | nm i'll just try reinstalling | 20:55 |

| Lam3r_co | well, I'm just googling how to speed up xubuntu on my ancient via epia machine, I hope I'll find something. Can I use the same tutorials as for ubuntu? | 23:03 |
| charlie-tca | If they apply to items you have installed, yes. | 23:04 |
| Lam3r_co | system monitor is using 70% of cpu time... this one will be tough | 23:14 |
| charlie-tca | Yes, system monitor steals cpu, might want to open it to check things, then close it again. | 23:22 |
| === Lusule_ is now known as Lusule | ||
| Lam3r_co | hm how can I fix this? Google found no sufficient info > FATAL: Error inserting padlock_aes (/lib/modules/2.6.31-19-generic/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-aes.ko): No such device | 23:34 |
