remanifestI've got a really simple/basic question... I'm trying to find the default Xubuntu background (the blue one with trees)... does anyone know where that is stored or where I can obtain it?07:01
well_laid_lawn/usr/share/wallpapers iirc07:03
remanifestnope, that's KDE07:04
well_laid_lawnI'm not on a xubuntu box to check but in /usr/share it is either wallpaper, backgrounds or themes07:07
well_laid_lawnso you found it remanifest ;]07:14
remanifestyes indeed, thank you :)07:21
pteagueif pulseaudio is crap, why is it still being installed?07:48
well_laid_lawnstubborness is my guess07:49
pteaguei heard something about it being the coolest thing since fire, and then the wheel came along07:50
edakiriWhat GUI options are there for managing user accounts? I do not have the full Xubuntu-desktop installed.08:59
MalkavianManiacim not sure about actual apps, but the webmin server has a users and groups module09:00
bazhang!webmin09:00
ubottuwebmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.09:00
bazhangtry ebox as its supported, and webmin is not09:00
MalkavianManiac!info webmin09:00
ubottuPackage webmin does not exist in lucid09:00
MalkavianManiacseriously, just coz one thing doesnt work... they throw the whole thing away09:01
edakiriI hate web apps.  I'll figure it out from the command line first.09:01

RinsmasterI just 'burned' a xubuntu 10.04 image onto a USB stick using the startup disk tool in Ubuntu. Now when I boot from that stick, it all works great, until I press a key, then it starts repeats it endlessly (as if I never let go of it). This happens on all KB's I've tried.. Is this a common problem?15:45
aosyshi. i am planning on installing Xubuntu on an older laptop that has 1 60gb partition. i understand that i have to create a new partition and then split that one up into 3 parts. 1 for Xubuntu OS, 1 for data (\home) and one for Linux-swap RAM. how would you suggest I go about doing this?16:23
aosysshould i 1st create a new partition and then splitting it in to 3 parts in Windows XP using disk management tool?16:24

JonexI have weird issues with networking. Wired networking work in SLAX, a protable version of slackware. But not in xubuntu. It sees like DHCP fails.23:10
JonexWhat differences are there between the distros that could cause the error?23:10
knomeno idea. which xubuntu versio were you trying?23:12
knome+n23:12
Jonex10.0423:13
JonexThe computer is an old Dell Latitude23:14
knomedhcp should work in 10.0423:14
knomei mean, haven't heard of similar problems in 10.04 before23:14
JonexIt does not have drivers in windows. But if the drivers arenät23:14
Jonexaren't iworking, i would not get any enrty in ifconfig at all, right?23:15
knomei don't know.23:15
knomewired network should pretty much alwayst just work ootb23:15
JonexIt succeeds to connect to open wireless networks it seems, bot not wpa secured ones.23:16
Sysi-(exept with brand new card and debian)23:16
knomeSysi-, i said should :)23:17
Sysi-i said debian :p23:17
knomeubuntu is based on debian, so they must have somewhat similar bugs :P23:18
knomeif something is completely fixed in ubuntu, the debian developers should be wise enough to copy+paste23:18
JonexI Is there any practical ways of troubleshoting network, within the default install (not network means no apt-get)23:18
Sysi-knome: debian means ancient23:19
knomeSysi-, sure. so does "knome" in your mind23:21
Sysi-i didn't say that (right now)23:22
knomei'm not that ancient i'd forget all the things you've said :P23:23
knomeJonex, sorry, can't think of anything...23:23
Sysi-try "ifconfig eth0 up"23:23
Sysi-see if it gives errors23:23
Sysi-wlan could be issue with drivers23:24
Jonex_But, if it's the drivers, will I get it to work then?23:26
Jonex_Or is ther a risk that I'll have to install windows just because of crappy dell hardware?23:27
well_laid_lawnis it wired or wireless you want to fix Jonex_ ?23:28
Sysi-what's model of wifi card23:28
pahindr123:29
JonexInitially just about any network access, preferably wifi though, since I only have one wired conenction. But then Iäd like both to work.23:29
well_laid_lawnJonex: what's in the /etc/network/interfaces file about eth0?23:30
Jonex_Hmm, nothing23:31
well_laid_lawnJonex: add the line   auto eth0   and restart the network with   sudo service networking restart23:32
Jonex_Hmm, does that differ from using the auto eth0 thiny in the networking menu?23:37
well_laid_lawnno idea - I remove the network manager to run a static ip :]23:38
Jonex_the network manager handles static ip23:39
well_laid_lawnit didn't here23:39
Sysi-i can find where to set that up23:40
Sysi-modify connections, Auto eth0, edit, ipv423:41
Jonex_Couldn't change the interfaces file, even with sudo23:43
Jonex_But, oh well, Iäll have to continue trying this som eother time. Thanks for alll the tips!23:44
