[00:03] does anyone know how to get skype workin right in xubuntu? skype works right i mean the audio settings ain't right though. can't get the voice capture going [00:04] and i really prefer xfce over gnome because i don't believe in "evolution integration" linux isn't about integration. [00:14] anyone here? [00:16] anyone know how to get audio capture working in xfce? [00:21] am i in the wrong channel? [00:35] anyone know how to get audio capture working in audio settings? i need to use skype [00:50] robertzaccour: I had/have the same problem with ubuntu... [00:59] datz, its xubuntu i have the problem in [01:00] state your issue ? [01:01] lighta, i don't know how to adjust audio capture in xubuntu. in ubuntu gnome it was right there in volume settings, but it seems hidden in xfce [01:03] robertzaccour, try xfce4-mixer [01:04] you can add it on panel right clik add element mixer [01:05] lighta, ok thanks [01:10] i prefer xfce over gnome because gnome has evolution integrated. i don't think software should be integrated, too risky and thats one of the things i dislike about windows [01:10] not really english what u mean by integrated ? [01:10] all in one ? [01:11] lighta, i mean the desktop is dependent on it being installed. if you purge evolution, all that boots up is a wallpaper [01:11] whereas not integrated would be if evolution crashed, its just an application crash that doesn't affect everything else [01:13] oh I see =), did your audio configuration fine now ? [01:14] capture or capture 1? [01:14] which should i enable? [01:14] I would like to have an equalizer too, but dunno where to found one [01:14] there's also digital mic [01:14] what you want input or mic ? [01:15] lighta, my laptop has built in mic [01:15] there is also digital mic in the options to add [01:16] oh right, I only put the first one up myself [01:16] working fine for skype [01:16] capture not capture 1 right? [01:16] (just that I don't have a regular mic :(; using headphone as mic right now) [01:16] yes [01:16] capture [01:17] ok thanks [01:41] Anyone know why 10.04RC boots (most of the time) to a white screen requiring many reboots until it boots normal? 9.10 did not have this problem. [02:39] i just installed xubuntu, and my disc and usb devices aren't being shown [02:40] i didn't have this problem with gnome [02:42] any ideas? [02:42] is this an xfce bug? [02:46] i just installed xubuntu, and my disc and usb devices aren't being shown [02:46] any ideas? [02:47] As usual try lspci and see the logs in /var/log that usually helps alot. [03:09] how do i change the panel colors? [03:56] how do i use a picture i saved as a wallpaper? [03:57] i figured it out :) [04:02] newb needing help... I built this http://www.bit-tech.net/bits/2007/06/05/build_your_own_server/1 a couple years ago and now for some reason it won't boot all the way... stops at busybox v1.1.3 with a (initramfs) prompt? I have a ton of data that I need to get to? Any help would be appreciated [04:06] judging by the date its an old howto [04:08] It has been getting updates over the years thats just what I started with [04:09] and now you're stuck with 7.04 with it booting to busybox? [04:09] how do i reset the panels? [04:09] !panels [04:09] Did your 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/ [04:09] like to the way they were originally [04:10] ahh I dunno [04:26] can I try to reinstall or will that destroy the data that I have on there? [04:28] how do i restore xfce panel defaults? [04:41] it might destroy your data on there [05:57] Would anyone be so kind as to email me a copy of /isolinux/splash.png from the live CD if it contains one so I dont have to download the whole ISO to get that. Im working on a community project that boots all the buntus from a single dvd and I need the splash image if anyone feels like helping. [05:58] just installed xubuntu today and lovin it :) [05:59] robertzaccour: Feel like helping me dude? [05:59] people say you can't tell the difference from gnome with a 64 bit system, but i can :) [05:59] LinuxGuy2009, whats up? [05:59] its a lot more snappier than gnome :) [06:00] robertzaccour: Did you read my post above? [06:00] robertzaccour: ImageBin /isolinux/splash.png from the live CD [06:00] LinuxGuy2009, no [06:00] robertzaccour: Could you do that for me? [06:00] i don't see anything, i just got here [06:00] oops sorry i'll check [06:00] Would anyone be so kind as to email me a copy of /isolinux/splash.png from the live CD if it contains one so I dont have to download the whole ISO to get that. Im working on a community project that boots all the buntus from a single dvd and I need the splash image if anyone feels like helping. [06:00] LinuxGuy2009, whats that? [06:01] Whats what? [06:01] it said no such file or directory [06:02] robertzaccour: On the CD there is no file? [06:02] oh i didn't check [06:02] robertzaccour: All the other buntus have one. [06:02] brb [06:02] k [06:04] LinuxGuy2009, what folder is it in? [06:04] /isolinux/splash.png [06:04] http://imagebin.org/ [06:06] LinuxGuy2009, how am i supposed to find that? [06:06] robertzaccour: look on the cd [06:06] i used a usb flash to install [06:07] Ok thanks anyways [06:07] how do i search for it? [06:07] yw [06:07] Ubuntu and Kubuntu have one and I just figured xubuntu has one too. [06:07] xubuntu took only 6 minutes to install [06:07] wow thats fast [06:08] yeah [06:08] How big is the iso anyways 700MB? [06:08] a poop takes longer than that [06:08] lol [06:08] over 600 [06:08] ok [06:08] guess ill just download it [06:08] the iso took like 5 minutes to download [06:08] so it took within 20 minutes to download, mount, and install [06:09] dang you must have a rocket connection [06:09] 16MB [06:09] and people say you can't tell the difference from gnome on a 64 bit system, i can [06:09] everything opens faster [06:13] oh and the xubuntu devs know how to make a theme. sorry gnome and kde [07:22] how do i update my grub script? i know how to in gnome but not xfce [07:23] <_Techie_> how do you mean? [07:24] in gnome its gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub [07:24] but what in xfce? [07:24] <_Techie_> umm, im not sure about the xfce4 text editor, i use nano for all my editing needs [07:28] mousepad [07:36] oh i have an idea [07:36] install gnome, update grub, then purge gnome. would that work? [07:37] <_Techie_> itd be a long way about doing it [07:38] do you know of a way? [07:38] <_Techie_> use mousepad [07:38] replace gedit with mousepad for your command in gnome [07:41] thanks Sysi [08:05] any way to fix this? http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq274/Knuckle_Brawler/Screenshot-4.png?t=1272265486 [08:06] didi you click the button? [08:06] Sysi, yes [08:06] and it just popped up again after appearing to download updates [08:09] to terminal: gksudo update-manager [08:10] Sysi, its updated thats the first thing i did after [08:11] i use apt-get for updating [08:11] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [08:12] if part of it says ign is that bad? [08:12] ign? [08:12] i'll pastebin it brb [08:14] http://pastebin.com/WeYxHuP2 [08:15] <_Techie_> ign is short for ignored [08:15] _Techie_, is that bad? [08:15] <_Techie_> no, those parts are disabled by default [08:16] _Techie_, so i should just wait it out and update my way out of it? [08:16] <_Techie_> i guess so [08:16] upgrade don't install all updates [08:16] dist-upgrade does [08:18] <_Techie_> and to relieve the stress - http://uploads.ungrounded.net/285000/285267_ultimateshowdown.swf [08:19] _Techie_, no updates available [08:19] so, there isn't updates [08:20] <_Techie_> and by the output you gave us, it looks like the authentication problem has been resolved [08:20] _Techie_, how come the pop up still comes up? [08:20] <_Techie_> not sure, but it doenst seem to be having trouble [08:21] _Techie_, so i should just ignore it and maybe try a fresh install tomorrow? [08:21] <_Techie_> up to you [08:21] graphical things just don't always work [08:21] it can work after reboot (non-linuxish) [08:22] <_Techie_> thats an idea [08:22] lucid isn't officially stable yet :) [08:22] xkill fixed it :) [08:23] Sysi, i haven't used a stable by default distro since jaunty. the last 2 required bug fixes i had to research [08:23] counting lucid [08:24] ubutnu distros i mean [08:24] karmic was never stable for me [08:24] i had to remove gnome-power-manager in karmic [08:25] and sometimes i had to shut down and drain the power to get usb devices and discs to be recognized [08:29] goin to sleep [08:29] later yall [09:12] hello [09:53] guys is it ok for me to run my browser while i'm upgrading my distro from karmic to lucid?

[09:57] if it's busy it might be [09:58] "might" [09:59] could be, but this connection is slow no matter where i go or download, and i'd rather hate att than the o/s community [09:59] prolly should have done a fresh install, but i din't feel like backing everything up [10:00] if it's slow everywhere then ...

[11:22] you [11:22] yeah... thats for sure [11:22] <_Techie_> im aolove... i hope [11:22] !wacom [11:24] is there any kind of writing recognition in ubuntu [11:24] i saw only cell writer but that really sucks [11:28] rshakin: no, there is sadly no writing recognition for linux [11:28] not true, lemme google [11:28] rshakin, oh [11:28] lol [11:28] ablomen: I did a pretty extensive research some year ago [11:29] TheSheep, http://www.linux.com/archive/feed/120867 << cellwriter, but rshakin already tried that i guess [11:29] yes [11:29] ok, anyone ran linux on a hptc4200 [11:32] btw google search did not turn up any good results [11:32] rshakin, http://www.handhelds.org/projects/xscribble.html << you could try this [11:33] does not look high-tech but maybe it works [11:39] ok, found something that might work called rosetta... it's too late to mess with it right now i am going to see if i can compile it next couple of days [11:40] i am going to see if i can port it [11:54] hi [11:54] for some reason my X window manager changed from :0 to :1 how could this be possible? [11:56] there's another instance of xorg running on :0 or a lock [11:57] there is no :0 running [11:57] how can i see if :0 has a lock? [11:58] look for lock files [11:58] they should normally end in .lock [12:09] k thanks psycho_oreos [12:10] dekroning, did you find it? [12:10] psycho_oreos: no i did not, but i must say, i did a reboot before i asked already and it jumped back to :0, so i've written a note down, to check for lock files if it happens again [12:11] psycho_oreos: also the strange things was that i needed to manually login (i have autologin enabled) so that was a bit strange already, so i guess that was already a sign that it used :1 [12:11] dekroning, I'm not sure exactly where the .lock files are located for xorg but iirc its either in /tmp or maybe in /var [12:13] hello [12:17] hi guys. I've installed 10.04 RC, when I boot I don't get any video (after bios ofc), known issue ? [12:18] damn, my xfce doesn't do a "autologin" after i changed my password [12:19] check under settings lol [12:22] psycho_oreos: where is it? :-) i only saw it during install [12:23] dekroning, I never bothered to setup autologin, but its around there somewhere :) [12:24] psycho_oreos: hmm oke, well i see a "Don't ask for password on login" but it seems to be grayed out, was hoping i could do it from the commandline [12:24] dekroning, if from the command line its probably some .conf file you'll be looking at === samsa_fritiert is now known as samsa === nikolam_ is now known as nikolam [16:17] guys just upgraded from karmic to lucid and i have five broken dependencies: devede, mencoder, mscore, python-launchpadlib, and wine , i can't figure out how to fix them [16:18] mikubuntu, have you added any third-party repositories, like PPA's?

[20:15] http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/ [20:16] yes, the rc is out [20:16] but i came to xunbutu page and i see there link to 10.04 so why dont i take the one who i wont need to make upgrade after 4 days? [20:16] http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/10.04/rc/ [20:16] which is also why there is no beta 2 images [20:16] i've had lucid since alpha ..2? [20:16] ok im taking charlie-tca link [20:17] * vinnl thinks we need another website maintainer :) [20:17] what website maintainer needs to do? be up to date with xubuntu news? [20:17] * charlie-tca thinks the one we have now is great!
