[01:17] <mikubuntu> my volume icon that was usually over in the right side of the top panel has distappeared, and i can't find it anywhere.  also, only my headphones work now, not my speakers on acer laptop
[01:22] <homebrewcider> hey there, is there a way to write directly to the sd card in my canon printer
[01:59] <rodriesp> hi
[01:59] <rodriesp> i'm having a problem i don't know if you can help me
[02:03] <rodriesp> is anybody here????
[02:04] <MalkavianManiac> !askl
[02:04] <MalkavianManiac> !ask
[02:07] <rodriesp> when i do Ctrl+Alt+F1 nothing happens
[02:07] <rodriesp> i don't know why
[02:08] <rodriesp> it was working perfectly 2 days ago
[02:08] <well_laid_lawn> does it work with f2?
[02:08] <rodriesp> no
[02:09] <well_laid_lawn> using nvidia driver?
[02:09] <rodriesp> without any f1, f2, f3
[02:09] <rodriesp> no i'm using flgrx, ati i mean
[02:09] <rodriesp> i think this started to happen after updating
[02:10] <well_laid_lawn> did the update bring in a new kernel?
[02:10] <rodriesp> that is what i don't remember he, probably it did sth like that
[02:11] <well_laid_lawn> can you select an older kernel from the grub menu to check it?
[02:12] <rodriesp> mmm i'll see
[02:12] <rodriesp> i restart and i tell you
[02:12] <well_laid_lawn> k
[02:16] <rodriesp> hey, thanks, the new kernel was all the problem, i see that i updated from 2.6.32-21 to 2.6.32-22, now tty1 to tty6 works perfectly
[02:16] <rodriesp> i was also having a problem with youtube in firefox, with the old kernel started working again
[02:16] <rodriesp> so i'll put this kernel as default in grub
[02:17] <rodriesp> thanks a lot well_laid_lawn
[02:17] <well_laid_lawn> np :] rodriesp
[02:17] <rodriesp> hehe
[02:17] <rodriesp> let's say a bloody new kernel
[02:18] <rodriesp> i just updated as a windows user, without knowing what i was updating
[02:18] <well_laid_lawn> everyone updates on trust...
[03:55] <donak> hi all
[03:55] <donak> how do I remove a "Verve" command line from my top panel? It won't "drag" back to the "Add New Items" list.
[03:56] <Tukeke> hello
[04:05] <donak> bye
[07:01] <remanifest> I'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?
[07:03] <well_laid_lawn> /usr/share/wallpapers iirc
[07:04] <remanifest> nope, that's KDE
[07:07] <well_laid_lawn> I'm not on a xubuntu box to check but in /usr/share it is either wallpaper, backgrounds or themes
[07:14] <well_laid_lawn> so you found it remanifest ;]
[07:21] <remanifest> yes indeed, thank you :)
[07:48] <pteague> if pulseaudio is crap, why is it still being installed?
[07:49] <well_laid_lawn> stubborness is my guess
[07:50] <pteague> i heard something about it being the coolest thing since fire, and then the wheel came along
[08:59] <edakiri> What GUI options are there for managing user accounts? I do not have the full Xubuntu-desktop installed.
[09:00] <MalkavianManiac> im not sure about actual apps, but the webmin server has a users and groups module
[09:00] <bazhang> !webmin
[09:00] <bazhang> try ebox as its supported, and webmin is not
[09:00] <MalkavianManiac> !info webmin
[09:01] <MalkavianManiac> seriously, just coz one thing doesnt work... they throw the whole thing away
[09:01] <edakiri> I hate web apps.  I'll figure it out from the command line first.

[11:25] <well_laid_lawn> you might need to move it to .picasa-bak

[11:27] <well_laid_lawn> k

[12:32] <lumen> Windows XP thrown out the window today :)
[12:32] <knome> lumen, congrats

[14:26] <xubuntu407> blah
[15:45] <Rinsmaster> I 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?
[16:23] <aosys> hi. 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?
[16:24] <aosys> should i 1st create a new partition and then splitting it in to 3 parts in Windows XP using disk management tool?
[16:48] <pedro> hello
[16:49] <pedro> anyone for a help?
[16:51] <Sysi-> !ask
[16:52] <pedro> how to share folders?
[16:54] <pedro> I'm already connected, but i can not choose wich folders to share
[16:55] <pedro> I'm using gigolo
[17:25] <Aquina> hm... I also had some problems with gigolo. I assume you run it from the LiveCD (10.04), pedro?
[17:26] <pedro> no, my system is xubuntu 10.04
[17:28] <Aquina> Maybe I got you wring but Gigolo is an application to connect to remote locations. I nvers saw or used a local share function. I also referred to 10.04 btw.

[22:54] <pahindr> hello
[23:01] <Psilocybin_Elf> Heya
[23:10] <Jonex> I 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] <Jonex> What differences are there between the distros that could cause the error?
[23:12] <knome> no idea. which xubuntu versio were you trying?
[23:12] <knome> +n
[23:13] <Jonex> 10.04
[23:14] <Jonex> The computer is an old Dell Latitude
[23:14] <knome> dhcp should work in 10.04
[23:14] <knome> i mean, haven't heard of similar problems in 10.04 before
[23:14] <Jonex> It does not have drivers in windows. But if the drivers arenät
[23:15] <Jonex> aren't iworking, i would not get any enrty in ifconfig at all, right?
[23:15] <knome> i don't know.
[23:15] <knome> wired network should pretty much alwayst just work ootb
[23:16] <Jonex> It succeeds to connect to open wireless networks it seems, bot not wpa secured ones.
[23:16] <Sysi-> (exept with brand new card and debian)
[23:17] <knome> Sysi-, i said should :)
[23:17] <Sysi-> i said debian :p
[23:18] <knome> ubuntu is based on debian, so they must have somewhat similar bugs :P
[23:18] <knome> if something is completely fixed in ubuntu, the debian developers should be wise enough to copy+paste
[23:18] <Jonex> I Is there any practical ways of troubleshoting network, within the default install (not network means no apt-get)
[23:19] <Sysi-> knome: debian means ancient
[23:21] <knome> Sysi-, sure. so does "knome" in your mind
[23:22] <Sysi-> i didn't say that (right now)
[23:23] <knome> i'm not that ancient i'd forget all the things you've said :P
[23:23] <knome> Jonex, sorry, can't think of anything...
[23:23] <Sysi-> try "ifconfig eth0 up"
[23:23] <Sysi-> see if it gives errors
[23:24] <Sysi-> wlan could be issue with drivers
[23:26] <Jonex_> But, if it's the drivers, will I get it to work then?
[23:27] <Jonex_> Or is ther a risk that I'll have to install windows just because of crappy dell hardware?
[23:28] <well_laid_lawn> is it wired or wireless you want to fix Jonex_ ?
[23:28] <Sysi-> what's model of wifi card
[23:29] <pahindr> 1
[23:29] <Jonex> Initially just about any network access, preferably wifi though, since I only have one wired conenction. But then Iäd like both to work.
[23:30] <well_laid_lawn> Jonex: what's in the /etc/network/interfaces file about eth0?
[23:31] <Jonex_> Hmm, nothing
[23:32] <well_laid_lawn> Jonex: add the line   auto eth0   and restart the network with   sudo service networking restart
[23:37] <Jonex_> Hmm, does that differ from using the auto eth0 thiny in the networking menu?
[23:38] <well_laid_lawn> no idea - I remove the network manager to run a static ip :]
[23:39] <Jonex_> the network manager handles static ip
[23:39] <well_laid_lawn> it didn't here
[23:40] <Sysi-> i can find where to set that up
[23:41] <Sysi-> modify connections, Auto eth0, edit, ipv4
[23:43] <Jonex_> Couldn't change the interfaces file, even with sudo
[23:44] <Jonex_> But, oh well, Iäll have to continue trying this som eother time. Thanks for alll the tips!
