| alkisg_web | What's the correct package to install xubuntu? `apt-get install xubuntu-desktop` or `apt-get install xfce4`? | 06:49 |
| bazhang | the former, if you mean from a gnome or kde install | 06:56 |
| sky_ | hello, is anyone there? | 07:21 |
| alkisg_web | Thank you bazhang, I meant from a non-gui system (e.g. from the server installation) | 07:25 |

| _Anthony | hello | 12:07 |
| knome | hey charlie-tca, sent you email about vbox usb in lucid | 14:10 |
| charlie-tca | Got it, too. Thanks | 14:10 |
| knome | np | 14:10 |
| charlie-tca | I can't believe it is that easy! | 14:10 |
| knome | did it work? | 14:10 |
| charlie-tca | Haven't tried yet. I had to try to recover 40GB data from a windows system that crashed | 14:11 |
| knome | ahh, okay | 14:11 |
| knome | i'm not sure if you have to, but you might have to update the usb driver on windows as well | 14:11 |
| knome | (the usb controller) | 14:11 |
| charlie-tca | No, I slaved the drive in and did the recovery in xubuntu | 14:12 |
| knome | no, i meant the usb in vbox :P | 14:13 |
| charlie-tca | oh. Okay | 14:13 |
| knome | but if possible, try without updating first, and see if it works | 14:13 |
| knome | and tell me the results | 14:13 |
| knome | i could blog about it, but want to be sure if you need that step or not | 14:14 |
| charlie-tca | Okay, I will try to do that today | 14:14 |
| knome | also, can i pm you? | 14:16 |
| knome | i need assistance in understanding english *correctly* | 14:16 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 14:20 |
| charlie-tca | of course | 14:20 |

| owen1 | i want to replace the nm-applet with wicd. how to make sure nm-applet will not run on boot? | 21:22 |
| vinnl | owen1, I think you can install BootUp-Manager | 21:23 |
| knome | owen1, if you install wicd, nm-applet will be removed | 21:23 |
| owen1 | knome: without installing bootup-managerL | 21:24 |
| owen1 | ? | 21:24 |
| owen1 | another question - | 21:25 |
| owen1 | is WEP shared/restricted means 40/128-bit key or 128-bit Passphrase? | 21:25 |
| knome | owen1, yes, as long as you install wicd from a repository | 21:25 |
| owen1 | (i use wicd on one laptop and nm-applet on another) | 21:25 |
| knome | owen1, i've no idea, but you shouldn't use WEP if possible | 21:26 |
| Sysi | wep is mostly just for look | 21:27 |
| owen1 | Sysi: what should i use? | 21:27 |
| Sysi | wpa | 21:28 |
| owen1 | ok. i see 3 options for wpa | 21:28 |
| owen1 | TKIP, | 21:28 |
| owen1 | AES | 21:28 |
| owen1 | [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] | 21:28 |
| owen1 | knome: i installed wicd, reboot, and i see both nm-applet and wicd. | 21:33 |
| knome | owen1, sudo apt-get remove network-manager network-manager-gnome | 21:33 |
| owen1 | ok | 21:34 |
| steven__ | I have installed xubuntu 10.04 on my dell mini 10. best flavor of ubuntu i've tried so far. video is kinda sad though. Can anyone help? | 21:40 |
| Sysi | sad? | 21:42 |
| steven__ | yeah, choppy when i watch vlc or mplayer. choppy even when scrolling in FF | 21:42 |
| steven__ | glxgears shows frame rates dropping to 35-40 when watching video | 21:43 |
| steven__ | flash works, but choppy as well. I can stream radio through pandora, but youtube is pretty bad | 21:44 |
| vinnl | Have you checked whether restricted drivers are available? | 21:45 |
| Sysi | flash is pretty bad, netbooks aren't any high-end machines | 21:45 |
| steven__ | yeah, there is not. there was a fix for ubuntu 9.04 which fixed resolution, but was still slow/choppy. I have not seen any drivers for 10.04 | 21:46 |
| steven__ | for sure they are not high end machines. I thought i'd give ubuntu a shot. had it on an old laptop and loved it. I was able to play videos fine with xp. I really don't want to go back to that though. | 21:48 |
| steven__ | i installed driconf to try to disable vblank but am totally lost on how to do this. | 21:53 |

| wendigu | c-c-c-combo breaker ! | 23:24 |
| wendigu | :0 | 23:24 |
| wendigu | not here | 23:24 |
| wendigu | :< | 23:25 |
| vinnl | :P | 23:25 |
| wendigu | :) | 23:26 |
| wendigu | u have also problems with jdownloader ? its workin very slow | 23:26 |
| vinnl | I've never heard of the thing, but it sounds like a Java application, and Java applications have issues with performance more often | 23:27 |
| wendigu | hmm | 23:27 |
| MalkavianManiac | jdownloader is a java download client / accelerator | 23:27 |
| wendigu | coz i was lookin for program to downloadin files from rapidshare etc. Found tucan but it didnt work | 23:28 |
| wendigu | :) | 23:28 |
| vinnl | I like the Firefox extension DownThemAll | 23:28 |
| wendigu | use swiftfox instead :P | 23:28 |
| wendigu | its based on firefox engine but a few times faster | 23:28 |
| wendigu | hmm - be creative and tell me as many advantages linux have. Im writin bechelor work about administration using free sotfware and any helps will be helpful :) | 23:46 |
| vinnl | There are many articles written on that, I recall a recent one from crunchbang.org I believe | 23:46 |
| wendigu | hmm...advantages in network administration meanin, arguments "like-windows so moving on linux will be easy" or "faster" are not well enough :P | 23:51 |
| vinnl | Search for better articles ;-) | 23:51 |
| wendigu | ah i forgot - im lookin also for toplist of most well-known and best network hardware, found one ranking on spiceworks.com but its not very good - only 300 votes about :C | 23:54 |
| wendigu | its hard to find something about it | 23:54 |
| wendigu | if u find something tell me plox | 23:58 |
