If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [02:07] when i do Ctrl+Alt+F1 nothing happens [02:07] i don't know why [02:08] it was working perfectly 2 days ago [02:08] does it work with f2? [02:08] no [02:09] using nvidia driver? [02:09] without any f1, f2, f3 [02:09] no i'm using flgrx, ati i mean [02:09] i think this started to happen after updating [02:10] did the update bring in a new kernel? [02:10] that is what i don't remember he, probably it did sth like that [02:11] can you select an older kernel from the grub menu to check it? [02:12] mmm i'll see [02:12] i restart and i tell you [02:12] k [02:16] 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] i was also having a problem with youtube in firefox, with the old kernel started working again [02:16] so i'll put this kernel as default in grub [02:17] thanks a lot well_laid_lawn [02:17] np :] rodriesp [02:17] hehe [02:17] let's say a bloody new kernel [02:18] i just updated as a windows user, without knowing what i was updating [02:18] everyone updates on trust... [03:55] hi all [03:55] 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] hello [04:05] bye [07:01] 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] /usr/share/wallpapers iirc [07:04] nope, that's KDE [07:07] I'm not on a xubuntu box to check but in /usr/share it is either wallpaper, backgrounds or themes [07:14] so you found it remanifest ;] [07:21] yes indeed, thank you :) [07:48] if pulseaudio is crap, why is it still being installed? [07:49] stubborness is my guess [07:50] i heard something about it being the coolest thing since fire, and then the wheel came along [08:59] What GUI options are there for managing user accounts? I do not have the full Xubuntu-desktop installed. [09:00] im not sure about actual apps, but the webmin server has a users and groups module [09:00] !webmin [09:00] webmin 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] try ebox as its supported, and webmin is not [09:00] !info webmin [09:00] Package webmin does not exist in lucid [09:01] seriously, just coz one thing doesnt work... they throw the whole thing away [09:01] I hate web apps. I'll figure it out from the command line first. === ac1dburnz is now known as zEr0ToXiC === zEr0ToXiC is now known as zer0t0xic [11:13] hi all... I have a problem with picasa on xubuntu 9.10.

[11:25] well_laid_lawn, yes there is [11:25] well_laid_lawn, have I to delete it?

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] 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] should i 1st create a new partition and then splitting it in to 3 parts in Windows XP using disk management tool? [16:48] hello [16:49] anyone for a help?

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