| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I have already shut down the screensaver | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: not after suspend | 00:00 |
| charlie-tca | I am running out of ideas here. | 00:00 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: that is a laptop. celeron 2g 512mb, with intel 815 | 00:00 |
| charlie-tca | Is it usb mouse? | 00:00 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I am using "noapic" after the kernel | 00:01 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: usb mouse and usb keyboard | 00:01 |
| charlie-tca | That shouldn't freeze it, I don't think | 00:01 |
| charlie-tca | If the memory test doesn't show anything wrong, file a bug using 'linux' as the package. you can file it with 'ubuntu-bug linux' in a terminal | 00:02 |
| charlie-tca | Add to the report that it freezes keyboard and mouse at random times, with the exception of the mouse movement. | 00:03 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: and I am using a pcmcia card to extend the usb2.0 port. but at the beginning I thought that caused the crashdown. so I plug it out, just with the usb-hub. but after that xfce still crashed | 00:03 |
| charlie-tca | What version of Xubuntu is it? | 00:03 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: xubuntu 910. with 2.6.31-20-generic | 00:04 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: but I am not the only one who has that problem | 00:04 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I will show you the url | 00:05 |
| charlie-tca | You aren't having the problem? | 00:05 |
| === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam | ||
| charlie-tca | Okay, what url? | 00:07 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: yes I have the same | 00:07 |
| charlie-tca | read it wrong. | 00:07 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: but I am not the only one | 00:07 |
| charlie-tca | Did you have the problem before the -20 kernel? | 00:08 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1386883 | 00:09 |
| charlie-tca | Did you install LXDE, too? | 00:10 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I can not say. because I was running windows on this laptop. I just used it to watch dvb-t | 00:10 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: no. just xubuntu without modify | 00:10 |
| charlie-tca | Well, that says you fixed your issue? | 00:10 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: just press "f5" | 00:11 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: Re: Xubuntu randomly crashes, mouse still responds--sorry, i was wrong. it still crashed down. help!!!! | 00:12 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: so I thought maybe a bug with xorg or something | 00:12 |
| charlie-tca | You have two different things there. The first person is crashing firefox after installing Lxde. | 00:12 |
| charlie-tca | You said you crash random times, and the applications don't matter. | 00:13 |
| charlie-tca | I would file a bug against the kernel. | 00:13 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: Installation went smooth. Restart. Log on, start Firefox, close it, wait a few seconds, crash | 00:13 |
| charlie-tca | Is it only after running firefox? | 00:14 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: right | 00:14 |
| charlie-tca | Then remove your extensions and restart the computer. Then see if it crashes. If it does, you need to try a new profile for firefox | 00:14 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: and I feel really weird that the xorg crashed down, but the mouse can still move and harddisk run sometimes. | 00:15 |
| charlie-tca | firefox does that | 00:15 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: but last time, I just want to click the icon of firefox, it crashed down | 00:16 |
| charlie-tca | Remove any extensions and plugins for firefox (you can try disabling them), but you have to restart the computer, not just log off | 00:16 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I "wanted" to but I did not have the chance | 00:16 |
| charlie-tca | It could still be firefox doing something stupid, right? | 00:17 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: you re right, but one time I just type something in the cli. it crashed down | 00:17 |
| charlie-tca | try it. Then ask here again if it still crashes. | 00:18 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: ok | 00:19 |
| robinking623 | charlie-tca: I will just remove the firefox and use opera or chrome | 00:19 |
| charlie-tca | Try epiphany, maybe? | 00:19 |
| charlie-tca | My eyes are blurring and I have to go rest them, now. Good luck. | 00:20 |
| robinking623 | ok, see you good night | 00:21 |
| Kangarooo | robinking623: use chrome. its fast all the time. | 00:21 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: already | 00:21 |
| Kangarooo | opera gets later bloated. maybe couse of saving all cache | 00:21 |
| * robinking623 running memtest | 00:25 | |
| Kangarooo | robinking623: does slider in firefox worked? | 00:25 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: slider? | 00:25 |
| Kangarooo | can u get it active when in far right side? yes slider if page is bigger then screen | 00:26 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: or you mean coolpreviews? | 00:27 |
| Kangarooo | slider. scroller. | 00:27 |
| Kangarooo | maybe im saying it wrong in english | 00:28 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: is that a plugins? or Add-on? | 00:28 |
| Kangarooo | you see this chat has text more then screen can show so theres slider to the right. with moving it u can see previous chat posts. | 00:29 |
| Kangarooo | isnt that called slider? | 00:29 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: ok. you mean the slider of firefox? | 00:30 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: and you asked if the slider of my firefox works? | 00:30 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: it works | 00:30 |
| Kangarooo | well the same kind thingy in firefox if u have bigger page then u see the slider. so question: can u get it active with mouse clicking it to far right side? | 00:30 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: without problem | 00:30 |
| Kangarooo | .. got some pidgin error. | 00:31 |
| Kangarooo | ok so u have xubuntu ? default theme? | 00:32 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: right | 00:32 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: I have ubuntu and xubuntu | 00:32 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: and I have really big problem with my xubuntu laptop | 00:33 |

| Kangarooo | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.5/+bug/530034 this bug u dont have? | 00:33 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: sorry I am using firefox 3.6 | 00:35 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: and I don't have that problem | 00:35 |
| Kangarooo | how u got 3.6 in xubuntu? 10.04xubuntu ? | 00:35 |

| Kangarooo | i have 9.10 latest updates and 3.5.8 | 00:36 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: you just need the ppa with firefox 3.6 and | 00:36 |
| robinking623 | Kangarooo: I know | 00:36 |
| Kangarooo | wow. ok then ill try that and report that bug is removed | 00:36 |

| raevol | hey guys | 01:56 |
| raevol | i set my laptop to a display resoltuoin that isn't supported while i was trying to get an external display to work | 01:56 |
| raevol | now nothing displays on the screen after i log in | 01:56 |
| raevol | i can't find the config file where the resolution is stored | 01:56 |
| raevol | how do i fix this | 01:56 |
| raevol | ok it seems to have fixed itself | 01:57 |
| raevol | so is there any way to get support for external displays using the display manager in xfce? | 01:57 |
| m0ar | I can't use alt+1 for the serverwindow in irssi when using xfce4-terminal :s | 02:36 |
| m0ar | Very wierd, but /window 1 works | 02:36 |
| m0ar | Same to alt+2,3,4 and so on | 02:36 |
| robinking623 | hello everyone, I still have the problem with xfce | 09:11 |
| robinking623 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8927548#post8927548 | 09:13 |
| Sysi | you could try to add acpi=off to kernel parameters | 09:30 |
| Sysi | !grub2 | 09:30 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager in Karmic. For more information and troubleshooting on GRUB2 please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 | 09:30 |
| Sysi | gksudo nano /etc/default/grub ; for a start | 09:31 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: already, doesnot work | 09:37 |
| Sysi | hum | 09:37 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: but I am sure the kernel is still working | 09:40 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: but the xorg is crashed down | 09:40 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: and it takes my usb keyboard away. | 09:41 |
| robinking623 | just brb | 09:43 |
| Sysi | i had same proble with propably same intel graphics card, it worked with acpi=off | 09:43 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: any other ideas? | 09:47 |
| Sysi | i had same proble with propably same intel graphics card, it worked with acpi=off | 09:48 |
| pdg1 | hello hello? | 09:49 |
| Sysi | and with centos ir works straight after installation, old distro with old computer clearly.. | 09:49 |
| Sysi | hell pdg1 | 09:49 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: no, you did not get my meaning. xfce works already, but it crashed sometimes down. then I have no chance to repair it | 09:49 |
| Sysi | *hello :D | 09:49 |
| Sysi | robinking623: maybe itäs my english, but i don't get whatäs your problem | 09:50 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: I have only a usb keyboard | 09:50 |
| pdg1 | is it just me, or does Karmic run a little slower on oldeer hardware than Hardy | 09:50 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: but under windows xp, it works without problem | 09:51 |
| Sysi | do you mean that your usb keyboard don't work? | 09:53 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: after the xorg crashed down | 09:54 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: no I mean the laptop | 09:54 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: xfce works without problem with all my hardware. just still the xorg crashed | 09:55 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: and it crashes down without telling me before.......... | 09:55 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: while the kernel it is still working | 09:56 |
| Sysi | robinking623: ... | 09:56 |
| Sysi | so you can gt to virtual terminal after xorg has crashed? | 09:56 |
| Sysi | why typing is so hard now.. | 09:57 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: you mean the tty, no I have no keyboard | 09:57 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: so that is the point | 09:57 |
| Sysi | when that happened to me, i couldn't restart xorg even trough ssh | 09:58 |
| Sysi | so it was just about crashing | 09:58 |
| Sysi | that acpi=off fixed it but xorg took a lot of cpu power after that | 09:59 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: I think I should change the version of xorg or intel driver | 09:59 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: but acpi works but I need "noapic" | 09:59 |
| Sysi | you can add that too | 09:59 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: I tried, it crashes also | 10:00 |
| Sysi | sounds difficult case | 10:00 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: so I don't think that it the problem with acpi | 10:00 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: really | 10:00 |
| Sysi | robinking623: but always worth a try | 10:00 |
| Sysi | have you tried older ubuntu release? | 10:01 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: already but I 'd like to change the new version | 10:01 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: because it works always without problem after boot for more than I hour | 10:02 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: I will try to change the xorg | 10:02 |
| Sysi | robinking623: why do you want new version if it's crashing? :P | 10:02 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: because it is just the point of xorg, not other things | 10:03 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: now I am using the new kernel of ubuntu. it works after xorg crashed | 10:03 |
| Sysi | robinking623: i don't give this as proper advice but i use to say "don't fix it if it's working" | 10:04 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: I just start to cp 50G files from one partition to another, it does still now | 10:04 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: or I will try to use another distro | 10:05 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: arch maybe | 10:05 |
| Sysi | btw, you don't need to hilight me everytime | 10:05 |
| Sysi | robinking623: that's not real linux solution, but that's what i did :D | 10:06 |
| Sysi | my old laptop now works like a charm with centos, i'd just like to test some bsd on it | 10:07 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: but thank you anyway, I will continue googling | 10:07 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: bsd works, I just have a friend who is using freebsd with his 2 laptop | 10:08 |
| robinking623 | s | 10:08 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: they are working properly | 10:08 |
| Sysi | i'm trying to consider, pcbsd or freebsd | 10:09 |
| Sysi | my friend has openbsd and he says it's a bit funny | 10:09 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: why? | 10:10 |
| Sysi | se said it's designed to shell-server or something | 10:10 |
| === angus is now known as casper3 | ||
| robinking623 | Sysi: that is right but you can running xorg on it and with desktop enviroment | 10:12 |
| Sysi | i know | 10:13 |
| Sysi | i use centos, everyone say that it's ment for servers | 10:13 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: right, centos is just like rhel | 10:13 |
| Sysi | same source compiled with same settings | 10:14 |

| p0a | Hello when I boot my comp my monitor goes into 'power saving mode' | 11:36 |
| p0a | I bought a new monitor but I get the same problem | 11:36 |
| p0a | What would the problem be? | 11:36 |
| TheSheep | one possibility would be that the resolution is out of the monitor's range | 11:37 |
| p0a | It didnq't happen before | 11:38 |
| p0a | and I didn't mess with anything software-wise | 11:38 |
| TheSheep | does switching to text mode with alt+ctrl+1 help? | 11:38 |
| TheSheep | when did it start? | 11:38 |
| p0a | some days ago | 11:39 |
| p0a | it happened, then the next day it was fine and i assumed it was something temp | 11:39 |
| p0a | but now it wont work again | 11:39 |
| p0a | I dont think text mode has to do anything with it, it doesn't even show GRUB menu or BIOS stuff... | 11:40 |
| p0a | it goes into power saving mode as soon as I boot the comp | 11:40 |
| hatake_kakashi | I reckon its acpi issue, rare on desktops though | 11:41 |
| p0a | what's the remedy? | 11:42 |
| hatake_kakashi | might need to manually append that at boot | 11:42 |
| p0a | what do you mean? how would I do anything without a monitor | 11:44 |
| hatake_kakashi | you don't even get grub menu? something like press Esc to view menu? | 11:44 |
| p0a | nothing | 11:45 |
| p0a | as soon the comp fires up the monitor does it | 11:45 |
| hatake_kakashi | so you see BIOS and all but you can't see the hidden grub menu? | 11:45 |
| p0a | I dont think its xubuntu related, apologies for asking here but I dont know a more apt channel | 11:45 |
| p0a | not even bios | 11:45 |
| hatake_kakashi | its a hardware related issue, and you tried asking in ##hardware ? | 11:46 |
| p0a | ok i will | 11:47 |
| dzordz | how can i in xubuntu open keyring manager to disable asking for paswword? | 12:47 |

| dzordz | saml, yes | 12:53 |
| rww | saml: yeah | 12:53 |
| saml | dzordz: thanks! | 12:53 |
| saml | do I need to reinstall things when newer version comes out? upgrade instructions look hectic for normal users | 12:53 |
| saml | i mean newer OS version like 9.10 | 12:54 |
| dzordz | 9.10 is already out | 12:55 |
| dzordz | 10.04 will bee after 1month | 12:55 |
| Sysi | no, everything is upgraded at the release upgrade | 12:56 |
| Sysi | no need to any reinstalls | 12:56 |
| Sysi | for me upgrading seems easy, just run one command or use update manager | 12:58 |

| Sysi | good that it's working | 18:36 |

| robinking623 | Sysi: that is the only difference | 18:38 |
| robinking623 | Sysi: kernel maybe also | 18:38 |
| faron | hey ! you guys r talkin about xorg ! I had a question about that pro.........I was thinking about uninstalling that but I'm wondering what would happen if I did that ? | 18:40 |
| faron | Now,be informed...I am not a very comp literate person | 18:40 |
| faron | xorg sounds like it might be a kind of important pro but synaptic says that it is "optional" | 18:42 |
| Sysi | faron: if you use graphical stuff you need xorg | 18:42 |
| Sysi | if only command line, you don't | 18:42 |
| faron | I was thinking about uninstalling it bue to it's memory use aha ! | 18:42 |
| faron | So,someone like me who really doesn't know much aboput comps shouild probably leave that one alone huh ? | 18:43 |
| faron | bue=due | 18:43 |
| knome | probably :P | 18:44 |
| faron | hey there knome ! how r ya taday ? | 18:44 |
| knome | i'm fine | 18:44 |
| faron | nice ta see ya | 18:45 |
| knome | you too | 18:45 |
| faron | hey knome ? | 18:45 |
| knome | faron, yeah? | 18:45 |
| faron | can I ask you a couple of questions about pidgin ? | 18:46 |
| knome | sure, but i don't know if i'm able to answer them | 18:46 |
| faron | cool.....#1 why when I join a chat am I not auto switched to that chat tab ? | 18:47 |
| knome | no idea. | 18:47 |
| faron | I can't seem to find a setting for that | 18:47 |
| knome | hmm | 18:47 |
| knome | then it's maybe a "feature" | 18:47 |
| faron | hmmm is right...okay...how about this one... | 18:47 |
| faron | what does it mean when pidgin times you out & you go to your buddy list & click on "reconnect",but you just sit there staring at this message forever informing you "connecting" ?? | 18:48 |
| faron | pidgin will not "reconnect me unless I close the entire pro down & reopen it | 18:49 |
| knome | probably does have something to do with bad connections to irc servers | 18:49 |
| faron | It's works great until it times me out.But,it just won't allow me to use those "reconnect" buttons for soem reason | 18:51 |
| faron | hey knome ? | 18:53 |
| faron | when you said "feature" did you mean that that is probably like an extra ? you know...like an add on ? | 18:54 |
| faron | it seems like that would be like a default | 18:55 |
| knome | faron, no | 18:58 |
| knome | faron, i meant that maybe it is supposed to be so | 18:59 |
| mtrg | Hi, how to change language input? | 19:35 |
| mtrg | Oh, this is sad | 19:46 |
| knome | what is? | 19:47 |
| mtrg | knome: need to change my language input | 19:47 |
| knome | mtrg, see settings -> keyboard -> tab layout | 19:48 |
| mtrg | knome: but that's manual, isn't it? | 19:48 |
| mtrg | knome: , i need to automate it by alt+shift | 19:48 |
| knome | mtrg, do you need a fairy to change the layout? | 19:48 |
| mtrg | yeah, i change it alot | 19:49 |
| knome | mtrg, you probably need some kind of script which you then bind to alt+shift | 19:49 |
| mtrg | but one more issue. Ctrl^C doesn't work with my keyboard layout | 19:49 |
| mtrg | it works with US, but not with my language | 19:50 |
| mtrg | ah forget about it, i solved the Ctrl+C | 19:50 |
| mtrg | knome: which command should I use to change keyboard layout within xfce? | 19:50 |
| mtrg | knome: keyboard app has a sectionf or shortcuts. thinking to place it there. | 19:51 |
| knome | mtrg, yes, you need to put it there. i don't know what the command is for changing layout real-time, sorry. | 19:53 |
| mtrg | knome: setxkbmap? | 19:53 |
| knome | mtrg, probably. | 19:54 |
| mtrg | How to disable sessions from being saved. I want to start a fresh session every time | 20:03 |
| mtrg | should I untick on "launch gnome services on startup"? | 20:03 |
| knome | mtrg, check the logout dialog. | 20:05 |
| mtrg | knome: you mean untick? | 20:05 |
| knome | mtrg, no, click the quit button and see the logout dialog which appears. | 20:06 |
| mtrg | what's there? | 20:06 |
| mtrg | there is a tick box on "Save session" -- should i untick it? | 20:06 |
| knome | mtrg, yes, if you want to start with a clean session. | 20:07 |
| mtrg | knome: but everytime, that tick box is there. i have to remove it everytime? | 20:07 |
| knome | mtrg, it should not be. | 20:07 |
| mtrg | knome: how to delete previous sessions? | 20:07 |
| knome | mtrg, if you untick it, it should keep unticked. | 20:07 |
| knome | mtrg, see settings -> session and startup | 20:07 |
| mtrg | then? | 20:08 |
| knome | mtrg, do you need step-by-step instructions? | 20:08 |
| mtrg | knome: no, but i can't find anything there that allows me to delete my sessions | 20:09 |
| knome | mtrg, you only have *one session* | 20:09 |
| knome | mtrg, which is launched every time. | 20:09 |
| knome | mtrg, if you save the session for future logins, it overrides the old ont. | 20:09 |
| knome | *one | 20:09 |
| mtrg | knome: but i get a drop-down menu for sessions, guess it allows me to choose sessions | 20:09 |
| knome | mtrg, which xubuntu version you are using? | 20:09 |
| mtrg | knome: 9.10 | 20:10 |
| knome | mtrg, okay, then the sessions you mean is a different thing. | 20:10 |
| knome | mtrg, they allow you to run gnome or even kde | 20:10 |
| knome | mtrg, they have nothing to do with xfce sessions | 20:10 |
| mtrg | ok | 20:12 |
| mtrg | knome: any idea how xfce4-keyboard-setting changes the layout neatly? | 20:12 |
| mtrg | i want to place it in a shortcut, or write an application to do so | 20:13 |
| knome | mtrg, as i said, you probably should write a script for that | 20:13 |
| mtrg | but that script needs to call soemthing. at least an api | 20:13 |
| knome | mtrg, which invokes setxkbmap (?) or some other app to change the layout | 20:13 |
| knome | mtrg, or you can run setxkbmap directly, but then i suppose you'd have to create one shortcut per layout | 20:14 |
| mtrg | right. but that has another weird issue. | 20:15 |
| mtrg | I can't do Ctrl^C shortcuts with the other layout | 20:15 |
| mtrg | but when I change it with the GUI, i can still Ctrl^C | 20:15 |
| mtrg | setxkbmap us <-- this is the command i use | 20:15 |
| mtrg | but instead of us, my layout | 20:15 |
| mtrg | such as, setxkbmap fr | 20:16 |
| knome | mtrg, when you are at the other layout, add a new keyboard shortcut again for the command | 20:17 |
| mtrg | knome: where can i find xorg.conf? | 20:21 |
| knome | mtrg, you shouldn't poke xorg.conf if you don't know what you are doing, but it's at /etc/X11/xorg.conf - it also might be empty. | 20:22 |
| mtrg | knome: doesn't exist in that name | 20:23 |
| mtrg | knome: I want to add an option to toggle layouts | 20:23 |
| knome | mtrg, the new ubuntu tries to get away from xorg.conf. | 20:23 |
| mtrg | where is it then.. | 20:23 |
| knome | mtrg, you can create that file, if you DEFINITELY want to hassle with xorg.conf | 20:23 |
| knome | mtrg, it either is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (note the uppercase X), or it doesn't exist. | 20:24 |
| mtrg | yeah, uppercase, not there | 20:24 |
| mtrg | wondering how does xfce4-keyboard-settings already switches keyboard layout | 20:24 |
| knome | mtrg, if it doesn't exist, and you still want to use one, feel free to create one. | 20:25 |
| mtrg | knome: I found a neat solution.. | 20:30 |
| knome | mtrg, good to hear | 20:30 |
| mtrg | knome: configured layouts using xfce4-keyboard-settings the normal way | 20:30 |
| mtrg | knome: just executed this at shell: setxkbmap -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" | 20:31 |
| knome | mtrg, okay :) | 20:31 |
| mtrg | knome: it's sad why doesn't xcfe-keybaord-settings doesn't automatically push options field | 20:31 |
| knome | the xfce developers try to keep the options visible to minimum | 20:32 |
| knome | so the layout stays simple/clean | 20:32 |
| mtrg | wondeering where it saves language settings. i'd better edit it | 20:33 |
| mtrg | doesn't look neat enough to run a service that pushes -options "" everytime | 20:33 |

| Kangarooo | how can i start keyring manager in xubuntu? | 21:48 |
| mintrepublic | hi guys | 22:10 |
| mintrepublic | i'm having some trouble installing xubuntu | 22:10 |
| mintrepublic | i have an old hp from 2004 with an AMD Athlon 64 3400+ and a gig of ram | 22:11 |
| mintrepublic | i burned the x64 iso to a cd and booted to it | 22:12 |
| mintrepublic | the screen came up, but no matter what i select- install, livecd option, ram check, they all do the same thing | 22:12 |
| mintrepublic | takes me to a black screen with a dog icon in the middle, then just black | 22:13 |
| mintrepublic | i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong | 22:13 |
| likemindead | Ha... it's a mouse, not a dog. | 22:16 |
| likemindead | Other than that, I'm not sure I can help, though. Sorry. | 22:16 |
| likemindead | I've always gone with 32-bit. :-\ | 22:16 |
| faron | likemindead does that name have anything to do with being "Gratefully" minded ?? {Heh,heh} | 22:19 |
| mintrepublic | haha, my monitor is a tv screen, so i couldn't see that well | 22:19 |
| mintrepublic | i might try the alternate install next | 22:19 |
| likemindead | I don't follow, faron. | 22:20 |
| faron | nevermind then...sort of a Grateful Dead issue | 22:21 |
| Sysi | mintrepublic: how long you've waited with black screen? | 22:21 |
| faron | thought you might be a fellow follower4 | 22:21 |
| faron | follower {no4} | 22:21 |
| mintrepublic | i just left it on in the living room, so about 15-20 minutes | 22:22 |
| likemindead | mintrepublic, 9.10 or 10.04 or ...? | 22:32 |
| mintrepublic | oh sorry, 9.10 | 22:32 |
| mintrepublic | 9.10 desktop amd64, to be exact | 22:33 |
| Kangarooo | mintrepublic: i had once a problem with installing xubuntu 9.10 and none of options worked then i cleaned cd as i saw it was with fat from food :) still didnt work then i rewrited (it was rewritablecd) and then i installed with it 3 comps | 22:48 |
| Kangarooo | maybe oyur cd has butter on it? :) | 22:48 |
| Kangarooo | breathe on it and then clean in clothe.. ;) | 22:49 |
| Kangarooo | likemindead: one my friend thought it was a bear :) | 22:49 |
| mintrepublic | I doubt it has butter or anything else on it since I just took it out of the spindle... | 22:53 |
