| mertle | hasenj: maybe lucid has diff startup apps -idk - iirc .config is where the autostart apps are | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| mertle | but if you didn't back it up... | 00:00 |
| hasenj | what .config? | 00:01 |
| hasenj | somewhere in /etc/sessions or something like that? | 00:01 |
| mertle | hasenj: no in your home folder | 00:01 |
| hasenj | hmm | 00:02 |
| mertle | hasenj: ctrl+h to show hidden folders | 00:03 |
| hasenj | yea I'm in it | 00:03 |
| hasenj | no file there is called xubuntu | 00:04 |
| hexdump_ | hey all, just got a lil question here... | 00:05 |
| hexdump_ | how can I update packages in xubuntu with only the command line | 00:05 |
| mertle | hasenj: but like I said if you didn't back it up when upgrading it prob got overwritten so the old configs won't be there | 00:05 |
| vinnl | hexdump_, sudo apt-get update to update the package list | 00:05 |
| hasenj | it might still be in the xfce session | 00:05 |
| mertle | it would be xfsession or autostart iirc | 00:05 |
| vinnl | sudo apt-get upgrade to get the newest packages I believe | 00:05 |
| vinnl | !apt-get | 00:05 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) | 00:05 |
| hasenj | ok | 00:05 |
| hexdump_ | vinnl: I've done that, but it keeps telling me there are updates | 00:06 |
| hexdump_ | I'm using ssh and I don't have gui | 00:07 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: use sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 00:08 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: from my experience, aptitude can hande dependencies best... i sue it as deflault over apt-get | 00:08 |
| hexdump_ | I got it it's sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:09 |
| hexdump_ | Benkinooby: thanks buddy | 00:09 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: np | 00:09 |
| hexdump_ | so sudo aptitude safe-upgrade works as well? | 00:09 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: yes... as i said... i trust aptitude more than apt-get | 00:10 |
| hexdump_ | I'm running my web server with no window manager because it eats up resources | 00:10 |
| hexdump_ | well I could just try aptitude afterwards and it wouldn't hurt anything would it | 00:10 |
| hexdump_ | I'm gonna give it a go | 00:12 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: just do it... after you updated with apt-get there should be nothingto be done for aptitude | 00:12 |
| hexdump_ | Bekinooby: Well I tried it and it's upgrading. Is it just overwriting the previous updates? | 00:13 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: also, you can install a gui (which can be a very fast and small windowmanager too). only becuase you instlled it, you dont need to use it | 00:13 |
| hexdump_ | I know I turned off my gui. changed gdm.conf to gdm.no | 00:14 |
| hexdump_ | heh heh | 00:14 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: :) | 00:14 |
| hexdump_ | I really like ubuntu, that's what I use on my primary computer (My desktop) but I would have liked to try BSD for my server or CentOS maybe I dunno. | 00:16 |
| hexdump_ | but wait, ubuntu has a server version that I should have used. | 00:16 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: usually, for servers debian or redhat is first choice | 00:20 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: also ubuntu derives from debian, so they have many things in common | 00:21 |
| Benkinooby | hexdump_: if you want to learn more about linux/bsd/solaris feel free to choose... gentoo is the one for ultimate knowledge... and pain ;) | 00:21 |
| hexdump_ | Bekinooby: thanks, I've been messing around with a lot of different distros recently. | 00:25 |
| hexdump_ | Benkinooby: alright I'll be back later some time. | 00:28 |
| Benkinooby | hi again, can some1 help me. my desktoplinks, which are used to work with kde don't work under xfce - except for one (wxmaxima)! i checked all permissions and settings and compared them to the working wxmaxima but i can't dinf the mistake http://pastebin.com/c865y5kn | 01:47 |
| SamuraiCrow | Hello. I've got a screwed up locale on my system. Has anybody heard of such a thing before? | 02:15 |
| psycho_oreos | hmm I know what locale is but in which part? under xorg? | 02:16 |
| SamuraiCrow | It only shows up under OpenOffice.org and AbiWord. | 02:16 |
| psycho_oreos | using scim I suppose? | 02:17 |
| SamuraiCrow | The desktop is fine but when I load OpenOffice.org Writer, the menus and text on the GUI are garbled. | 02:17 |
| SamuraiCrow | No. I've got it set to None for the keyboard. | 02:17 |
| SamuraiCrow | I've got the locale set to USA English all around. | 02:18 |
| psycho_oreos | hmm seems like those two programs are affected, have you tried asking for support in their channels? | 02:18 |
| SamuraiCrow | The programs function otherwise but in different ways. | 02:18 |
| SamuraiCrow | I'm trying to figure out which font they defualt to because it looks as if it's displaying null characters for the text. | 02:19 |
| SamuraiCrow | Initially I only had a partially installed locale. I've installed the English Locale completely now but that didn't seem to fix the problem completely. | 02:20 |
| SamuraiCrow | I googled for solutions on the respective Wikis of those two programs but the only thing I can think of that they would have in common is Gnome or GTK or something like that. | 02:22 |
| mertle | you can try removing the .Abisuite and .openoffice files in your home folder - which would remove the configs - logout and back in and open each and check if they're fixed | 02:27 |
| SamuraiCrow | Good idea! Thanks! I'll try that! | 02:27 |
| SamuraiCrow | I think my system is more scrambled than I thought. I almost couldn't log back in. | 02:45 |
| mertle | doesn't sound good... | 02:46 |
| SamuraiCrow | The only thing that seems out of place though, is one particular font. Besides the login issues, that is. | 02:49 |
| SamuraiCrow | When I first log in, there is a garbled indicator at the upper-right part of the screen. I think it's trying to tell me that it logged in to the internet with eth0. | 02:51 |
| mertle | I would do in terminal sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade to see if it pulls in the necessaries | 02:51 |
| SamuraiCrow | Ok. I'll try that also. | 02:51 |
| SamuraiCrow | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 02:52 |
| mertle | k | 02:53 |
| mertle | what's the font issue? | 02:53 |
| SamuraiCrow | When I try AbiWord, the menus are fine but what I type is garbled. | 02:53 |
| SamuraiCrow | When I try OpenOffice.org Writer, the menus are garbled but what I type is fine. | 02:54 |
| mertle | heh | 02:54 |
| * SamuraiCrow is scratching his head with this one. | 02:54 | |
| mertle | have you rebooted since this issue came up? - I'm thinking font cache issue | 02:56 |
| SamuraiCrow | Yes I have. Repeatedly. | 02:56 |
| mertle | there's a command to renew the font cache but it escapes me atm | 02:56 |
| mertle | k | 02:56 |
| mertle | not using a weird font ? - tried changing font in each app? | 02:57 |
| SamuraiCrow | When I use the drop-down font changer in OpenOffice.org Writer, each font appears scrambled. | 02:58 |
| SamuraiCrow | But when I type in the document it works as one would expect it to work. | 02:58 |
| SamuraiCrow | That's why I thought it was a Locale isssue. | 02:59 |
| mertle | as a test I would select one and see what happens - if that doesn't work all I can suggest is to apt-get purge each app and reinstall | 02:59 |
| SamuraiCrow | I've tried that with OpenOffice.org already. | 03:00 |
| mertle | ok - what locales are installed - do you know? | 03:01 |
| SamuraiCrow | All of the English ones and none other. | 03:02 |
| mertle | it's an odd situation | 03:04 |
| mertle | let's see what google tells us :) | 03:05 |
| mertle | are the ttf fonts installed SamuraiCrow ? | 03:06 |
| SamuraiCrow | Hmmm... My system may be low on RAM. I wouldn't think that would cause this odd behavior though. | 03:06 |
| mertle | abiword is a low resource app | 03:07 |
| SamuraiCrow | I installed the Windows fonts but when I type in AbiWord using Times New Roman it still appears scrambled. | 03:07 |
| mertle | and this happens when you start fresh in abiword - don't load a file into it? | 03:11 |
| SamuraiCrow | Correct. | 03:11 |
| mertle | seems using deju-vu font is a fix for some SamuraiCrow | 03:14 |
| SamuraiCrow | Ok. I'll try that. | 03:14 |
| SamuraiCrow | Highlighting the text and changing the font to DejaVu Serif makes no difference. | 03:15 |
| mertle | k | 03:17 |
| mertle | only thing now i can offer is sudo apt-get remove --purge abiword and then reinstall it - the --purge is important | 03:19 |
| SamuraiCrow | Ok. I'll try that. And if you need it, I just made a snapshot of the OpenOffice.org menus using GIMP. | 03:22 |
| mertle | apart from the install of each app being borked I don't know what it'll be - if fonts are fine elsewhere | 03:25 |
| SamuraiCrow | I just purged and reinstalled AbiWord. No change. | 03:27 |
| SamuraiCrow | Is there a way to check for bad sectors on my hard drive? | 03:27 |
| SamuraiCrow | Maybe it's just one particular library that's borked. | 03:28 |
| mertle | I know there's e2fsck - but you need to unmount the partition to use it - and afaik it doesn't report ba sectors but man e2fsck might give a clue on that - I use it from a livecd the rare times I have needed it | 03:33 |
| mertle | s/ba/bad | 03:33 |
| SamuraiCrow | Well, I suppose I've tried everything else. | 03:34 |
| mertle | it is weird... | 03:34 |
| mertle | and only two apps | 03:35 |
| SamuraiCrow | Well, it's more than those two apps, though. Some requesters are scrambled also. | 03:35 |
| mertle | what are you calling requesters? | 03:36 |
| SamuraiCrow | For example, when I change fonts in AbiWord, the little box that shows the font preview is scrambled. And the notification box that lets you know when the internet logs in on eth0. | 03:36 |
| SamuraiCrow | Then there's the issue of not being able to log in normally. | 03:38 |
| mertle | sounds like it might be the default font for the system then - you can change that in the settings for the theme iirc | 03:39 |
| mertle | try serif maybe | 03:39 |
| SamuraiCrow | Ok. I'll try that. | 03:39 |
| SamuraiCrow | Changing to Serif 10 made some fonts on the screen change, but AbiWord still shows garbled text. | 03:42 |
| ToStItOs | I am trying to fix my mbr after I installed Xubuntu. I want to uninstall grub but I am not sure if I am doing this right and I want to make sure before I proceed | 03:42 |
| mertle | it must be the office apps build then - are you using lucid beta? | 03:43 |
| ToStItOs | I want to recover windows mbr | 03:43 |
| SamuraiCrow | No. I'm on Karmik. | 03:44 |
| ToStItOs | I have a tutorial but something is not making sense | 03:44 |
| mertle | ToStItOs: that's fixmbr from the windows cd iirc - ##windows will know for sure | 03:44 |
| mertle | SamuraiCrow: I'm sorry but have no more suggestions... | 03:46 |
| SamuraiCrow | I'll try e2fsck from the live CD. Maybe that will tell us what's wrong. | 03:46 |
| ToStItOs | Ok but the part where I select either D:\mini.ini which is option 1 or is it c:\windows option 2 | 03:46 |
| ToStItOs | according to the tutorial it said to choose option 1 http://blogs.koolwal.net/2009/06/08/howto-how-to-erase-un-install-grub-from-mbr-to-restore-windowsdos-bootloader/ | 03:47 |
| ToStItOs | oh ok gotch | 03:47 |
| mertle | ToStItOs: I would guess c: - but that is a guess - try in ##windows it is their speciality :) | 03:48 |
| ToStItOs | ok thanks | 03:48 |
| === Guest18235 is now known as psycho_oreos | ||

| Balsaq | good morning xubuntu... | 07:24 |
| Arpad2 | hello | 08:17 |
| Balsaq | howdy... | 08:17 |
| Arpad2 | fine thx,:) is it possible to run windows application, exe file, in linux? | 08:18 |
| hatake_kakashi | wine | 08:18 |
| hatake_kakashi | dosbox | 08:18 |
| hatake_kakashi | vmware,virtualbox,qemu,etc | 08:18 |
| Arpad2 | these are the applications for doing it, hatake_kakashi? | 08:19 |
| hatake_kakashi | depends on what sort of program it is | 08:19 |
| Arpad2 | intervoip.com client | 08:19 |
| hatake_kakashi | probably wine | 08:19 |
| Arpad2 | i cant dowload their linux client from their webpage | 08:20 |
| Arpad2 | ok, thank you for help | 08:20 |
| hatake_kakashi | you should complain to them for making you use wine and hope that it'll work | 08:20 |
| Arpad2 | its not easy to contact them at all | 08:21 |
| Arpad2 | they written they wont answer to any question | 08:21 |
| hatake_kakashi | then why are you using their crappy product? | 08:22 |
| Arpad2 | its cheap to make intl. calls | 08:22 |
| Arpad2 | im new to linux | 08:22 |
| Arpad2 | before i had used it in xp | 08:22 |
| hatake_kakashi | mm cheap | 08:22 |
| Arpad2 | at least half the skype's rates | 08:23 |
| hatake_kakashi | well try running it in wine, and fix broken deps if any.. if no dice, you'll probably need something like vmware or virtualbox | 08:23 |
| Arpad2 | when Im stuck I'll come here for help:) | 08:24 |
| Arpad2 | it always works!:) | 08:24 |
| hatake_kakashi | -_- | 08:24 |

| Benkinooby | good morning! maybe some has some experience with my issiue or can give me a hint - my desktoplinks, which are used to work with kde don't work under xfce - except for one (wxmaxima)! i checked all permissions and settings and compared them to the working wxmaxima but i can't dinf the mistake http://pastebin.com/c865y5kn | 09:22 |
| Arpad2 | hatake_kakashi: i couldnt open the .exe file with wine, it crashed, while opening:( | 09:24 |
| hatake_kakashi | probably missing desp | 09:25 |
| hatake_kakashi | deps* | 09:25 |
| Arpad2 | which means? | 09:26 |
| hatake_kakashi | run it under terminal and fix up required deps? | 09:26 |
| Arpad2 | how can i do this? | 09:27 |
| hatake_kakashi | ask in #winehq | 09:27 |
| Arpad2 | which command | 09:27 |
| Arpad2 | ok | 09:27 |
| Arpad2 | on this server? | 09:27 |
| Arpad2 | yes:) | 09:28 |
| Benkinooby | please can somebody support me? the desktop links i used with kde don't work with xfce. when i open them with dolphin filemanager they work. but when i click them on the desktop or open them with any other file browser, they dont work :( http://pastebin.com/c865y5kn | 09:40 |
| hasenj | I have a question | 10:42 |
| Balsaq | shoot | 10:43 |
| hasenj | after I upgraded to lucid (beta) | 10:43 |
| hasenj | and after I downloaded kde | 10:43 |
| hasenj | my firefox settings were all reset | 10:43 |
| hasenj | I lost my bookmarks and my addons and my themes | 10:43 |
| hasenj | I thought it might be the profile name | 10:43 |
| hasenj | so I ran it with -P but it was the default profile | 10:44 |
| hasenj | any ideas? | 10:45 |
| Balsaq | i am certain you're question is about to happen... | 10:45 |
| Balsaq | it does not surprise me that the changes occured, considering all the changes that happened. | 10:46 |
| Balsaq | did you start with xubuntu or ubuntu...before the kde thing? | 10:47 |
| ben1 | is there any good java ide for xubuntu??? | 10:54 |
| hexdump_ | netbeans | 10:55 |
| ben1 | i`ve only got 192mb ram.......... | 10:55 |
| hexdump_ | well I have an old pc running with that, I'm sure I could get it working | 10:55 |
| ben1 | can i?? | 10:55 |
| ben1 | ;-)oh..thanks | 10:56 |
| ben1 | :-* | 10:56 |
| mnmnb | I get this error -GStreamer was unable to detect any sound devices. Some sound system specific GStreamer packages may be missing. It may also be a permissions problem. | 10:56 |
| mnmnb | so no sound... | 10:56 |
| ben1 | getting start!!! | 10:56 |
| hexdump_ | I think there is a method to use your swap file for java too | 10:56 |
| hexdump_ | I forget tho you can use your swap file to directly run a java program or something. man that's gonna bother me now | 10:57 |
| hexdump_ | ahh yes here it is | 10:58 |
| hexdump_ | ben1: check it out http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/docs/52634.htm | 10:58 |
| ben1 | oh!ok | 10:58 |
| hexdump_ | you can allocate more memory for whatever java program you're running by using a swap file for java | 10:59 |
| hexdump_ | There is an easier and more complete method than what is posted there, but I can't freakin remember. | 11:00 |
| hexdump_ | I had problems launching pms-linux on my older computer a while back and I had to do something similar. | 11:00 |
| ben1 | :-Dthat`s very king of you:) | 11:00 |
| ben1 | good luck! | 11:01 |
| hexdump_ | ah well I forget sorry I couldn't help you more. | 11:02 |
| ben1 | oh!come on......... | 11:02 |
| hexdump_ | ben1: I found something even better http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/performance/jvm-tuning.xtp | 11:02 |
| ben1 | i`ll go and see it.. | 11:03 |
| ben1 | well | 11:03 |
| hexdump_ | or even use java -Xms or XmX then "your java code" | 11:04 |
| ben1 | i`ll go and get some eat... | 11:04 |
| hexdump_ | the memory size after your Xms I think but first you need to create a swap file | 11:04 |
| ben1 | ok.. | 11:05 |
| hexdump_ | to increase your ram and then send to java | 11:05 |
| hexdump_ | alright go eat | 11:05 |
| ben1 | :-D | 11:05 |
| hexdump_ | I'm about too also | 11:05 |
| ben1 | :-D | 11:05 |
| hexdump_ | spend money I don't have | 11:05 |
| ben1 | :-D | 11:05 |
| ben1 | good bye!see you later. | 11:06 |
| hexdump_ | bye | 11:06 |
| Balsaq | hasemj, my 1st thought was to use a live cd to do a recovery...but i am not sure if that type of repair is strictly for the core OS stuff...or if it would also get your settings back....when you do it, it will offer you a few choices. prolly cant hurt to try? maybe a better xubuntu tech could elaborate. | 11:08 |
| Balsaq | well hasenj assuming you didnt back the stuff up in antoher folder... | 11:15 |
| Balsaq | the FF stuff is stored in the home directory hasenj | 11:15 |
| Balsaq | it'd be in ~/.mozilla/firefox hasenj | 11:16 |
| hasenj | k, I'll look there | 11:16 |
| Balsaq | there will be a random profile folder in there, all the settings and bookmarks are in there | 11:16 |
| Balsaq | it's best to use the xmarks extension to store your bookmarks | 11:17 |
| Balsaq | settings, well, only choice there is to back up that profile stuff in another folder | 11:17 |
| hasenj | wow .. looks like it's all gone | 11:18 |
| hasenj | doesn't the upgrader place .bak files ? | 11:18 |
| Balsaq | hmmm one moment | 11:19 |
| Balsaq | i dont hink upgrading wipes out those files? | 11:21 |
| Balsaq | look harder | 11:21 |
| Balsaq | but i am no expert... | 11:21 |
| Balsaq | where in hte heck is sysi! | 11:21 |
| Balsaq | the* | 11:21 |
| Sysi | well, when lucid was alpha it changed settings randomly | 11:23 |
| Balsaq | yikes | 11:23 |
| Sysi | hasenj: you installed the kubuntu-desktop package? | 11:25 |
| hasenj | yea | 11:25 |
| hasenj | is that bad? :/ | 11:25 |
| Sysi | shouldn't be | 11:25 |
| Sysi | officially lucid help is at #ubuntu+1 | 11:27 |
| Balsaq | changing settings randomly...who's idea was that! | 11:34 |
| Sysi | alpha | 11:36 |
| Balsaq | sheez | 11:41 |
| lee_ | Hi all | 12:25 |
| psycho_oreos | hi | 12:25 |
| lee_ | out of curiosity, how long should a xt4 filesystem take in a 80gb PATA drive that had WinXP on it? | 12:27 |
| psycho_oreos | take for what? | 12:28 |
| lee_ | to format/install? | 12:28 |
| psycho_oreos | shouldn't be long generally, up to 10 minutes if its really bad | 12:29 |
| lee_ | hmmmm | 12:30 |
| psycho_oreos | I'm sure there's a quick format | 12:30 |
| lee_ | yeah. I might need to check the connections - it's telling me it's there but not installing it | 12:30 |
| psycho_oreos | if you're familiar with CLI tools, with some bit of tinkering around you can probably get it to work | 12:31 |
| lee_ | I'm a little bit familliar, what sort of stuff are you talking about? | 12:32 |
| psycho_oreos | stuff like fdisk | 12:32 |
| psycho_oreos | lspci | 12:32 |
| psycho_oreos | dmesg | 12:33 |
| clfman | does anybody know how I can find out what my wifi connection is called. I am trying to configure conky and it's not working on wlan0. | 12:34 |
| psycho_oreos | check under network manager I suppose | 12:34 |
| lee_ | fdisk -l gives no output | 12:34 |
| clfman | when I check "edit connections" it lists my wired connection as lan0, but wifi is "Auto wifi" | 12:34 |
| psycho_oreos | check under connection information | 12:35 |
| psycho_oreos | lee_: maybe a bad disk check dmesg | 12:35 |
| clfman | shit, that was obvious. Thanks a lot, I hadn't checked there. Got it | 12:35 |
| psycho_oreos | no worries | 12:36 |
| lee_ | dmesg is giving me media error | 12:36 |
| lee_ | so I'm assuming that it's a bad disk or bad connections :) | 12:36 |
| psycho_oreos | media error could also mean other storage/optical drives | 12:37 |
| psycho_oreos | a bad disk though would usually be either silent or make funny noises | 12:37 |
| lee_ | sda? | 12:37 |
| psycho_oreos | sda could be anything but not floppy | 12:37 |
| lee_ | I'm running the install of a usb key with 10.04 | 12:38 |
| psycho_oreos | !lucid | 12:38 |
| ubottu | Lucid Lynx is the codename for Ubuntu 10.04, due April 29th, 2010 - Lucid is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 - Development Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucidReleaseSchedule | 12:38 |
| lee_ | yup. I know :) | 12:39 |
| lee_ | it's running fine on my laptop though :) | 12:39 |
| psycho_oreos | doesn't mean anything, its not supported and I don't know why you're here when you're meant to be asking in #ubuntu+i | 12:40 |
| psycho_oreos | err #ubuntu+1 | 12:41 |
| lee_ | ahhh, fairy nuff :) I didn't know that :) | 12:41 |
| lee_ | I'll go d/l 9.10 and try again :) | 12:41 |
| psycho_oreos | more like xubuntu | 12:41 |
| lee_ | I must admit, I do like xubuntu more than kubuntu or ubuntu :) | 12:43 |
| Balsaq | i like xubutu the best by far | 12:59 |

| hasenj_ | I remembered now | 19:19 |
| hasenj_ | when I ran firefox in kde | 19:19 |
| hasenj_ | it asked me whether I wanted to "import firefox 3.5 settings" or use default firefox settings | 19:19 |
| hasenj_ | I didn't know what that was so I chose to use default! | 19:19 |
| hasenj_ | good thing, I have a .mozilla/firefox.3.5-replaced directory | 19:20 |
| hasenj_ | basically the backup it kept for me :P | 19:20 |
| Sysi | oh that was the funny thing, with kde comes some weird firefox installer | 19:25 |
| knome | kde's weird anyway | 19:26 |
| Sysi | 4.4 on pretty ok | 19:27 |
| knome | :P | 19:33 |
| knome | on==is? | 19:33 |
| knome | had to remove gnome-media package to get rid of the ugly audio mixer | 19:34 |
| Sysi | oops | 19:34 |
| Sysi | there just isn't any advantage to xfce, so why to use heavier | 19:35 |
| Sysi | and i hate most kde/qt programs | 19:35 |
| knome | vlc and virtualbox are good qt apps | 19:35 |
| knome | that's pretty much about it. | 19:36 |
| knome | amarok 1.x series used to rock. i don't care about 2.x | 19:37 |
