[15:33] Can someone tell me how to read out a CD-ROMs name in a shell? [15:33] "read out"? [15:33] I wanna verify a specific disc is inserted [15:35] When looking in fstab no CD name is shown. In Thunar the media has a name for e.g. "opfor" in case its the Half-Life: Opossing force CD or "F22L3" in case the F22 Lightning 3 CD is inserted. [15:44] I found "hal-device | grep volume.label" meanwile. :-) [16:11] hi [17:36] * likemindead isn't mad at his battery, just disappointed. [17:36] ...and that is soooo much worse if your battery was raised in a guilt-ridden religion, likemindead [17:38] ;-) [18:04] Recommended Playstation (the gray one) emulator? [18:04] ps1 ? [18:05] Yes'sir. [18:05] Seems pSX or epsxe are the two front runners. [18:06] I was wondering if anyone here had experience with either. [18:07] epsxe worked pretty well for me [18:08] star ocean was playable [18:08] Yeah? Thanks! [18:08] Did you compile it yourself? [18:08] I don't remember, I guess so [18:08] Heh... [18:09] I used ePSXe back in my Windoze days, over three years ago. :-\ [18:13] MUCH WIN DETECTED --> http://pcsxr.codeplex.com/Thread/View.aspx?ThreadId=75503 [18:18] likemindead: fail :( [18:18] ? [18:19] E: Couldn't find package pcsxr [18:19] Did you add the PPA? [18:19] Worked fine here. [18:19] likemindead: nevermind [18:20] ;-] [18:20] my system is a bit non-standard === [mccracken] is now known as likemindead [18:28] Dang ghost... [18:46] hey i am having trouble playing videos online [18:46] my computer used to play then fine until i upgraded to lucid lynx [18:46] now nothing [18:47] you have to add medibuntu back in to the repositories, and install the restricted extras again [18:47] i see [19:04] My menu bar (top left) went away suddenly, how do i restore it? [19:04] !panel [19:04] Did you 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/ [19:05] charlie-tca: ok, it (1) didn't return, and i (2) restarted and it didn't help [19:05] the bar itself at the top is still there, just not the dropdown menu [19:06] Oh [19:06] then just right click the panel, add new item, xfce menu [19:06] You can change the menu name in properties to applications, if you prefer it [19:08] how do i remove it? it's in an odd spot [19:08] s/remove/move/ [19:08] ah nvm :) [19:09] thanks [19:09] You are welcome [19:47] Is there a way to *automatically* add missing modes to xorg.conf? [19:48] I would like to know that, too, if you find a way. [19:50] It annoys me since the very beginning. It's a problem I also have when remastering my distribution. I simply cannot expect people to change it ba hand... :-( [19:52] Waaay back in earlier versions, it was automatically added to xorg.conf, then it became automatic and I lost more than half my available video modes. [19:54] nyone using exaile? I am having a tiny trouble with it... as it only remembers my playlist from a few days back every time i restart. Even though i have quit the application properly several times with a different list, it still reverts back to the one from a few days ago. [19:55] and aslo in xfce4 the notifications are HUGE. [19:55] but that is moslty due to larger resolution on the images. [19:55] notifications in Xubuntu 10.04 appear to be about the same as they were in 9.10 [19:56] In exaile, have you saved the playlist yourself? [19:56] right click the playlist tab, and save it. it has failed to be there for me when I do that. [19:57] Nah i just start the app, and it is supposed to remember what i played last and continue... but it seems to have a mild case of alzheimers =D [19:58] also, in xfce4, how do i put the notifications in somewhere less distracting place? [19:58] Hmm seems to work now, the playlist part. [20:02] i am having trouble watching streaming videos online [20:02] they worked fine before i updated to lucid lynx [20:02] i already added medibuntu to my repositories and installed restricted extras [20:03] but still no video [20:03] help. === mOOey is now known as m00se === m00se is now known as Guest50090 === Guest50090 is now known as `mOOse` [20:10] i would like some help watching streaming videos online [20:11] i am stumped [20:13] ok so here is the problem [20:14] the videos used to work fine but now since i upgraded to lucid lynx they don't work at all [20:14] i installed medibuntu and the restricted extras [20:14] i do not know what else to do [20:15] i mean i guess i could live without them but i would rather have the problem solved [21:24] ello, I'm logged into Xubuntu LiveCD, Gparted and trying to remove my Linux disk and connect that space with Windows, but I can't do anyting for that.. [21:24] How could I do that? [21:25] does it give some error? [21:26] I see key painted to /dev/sda1 [21:26] in Gparted [21:26] And [21:26] I was puted my Windows CD because I need reinstall it [21:26] And I deleted windows and linux disk [21:26] But It not connected to one [21:27] So I decaded to rienstall and load LiveCD [21:55] Bernuzelis, windows always clears the mbr. are you sure that you don't just need to reinstall grub? [21:55] oh you want to remove linux? [21:57] That would be very simple to do. just boot windows and start the "computer management" and delete the linux partition(s) and then format it as a single drive with NTFS. Then you combine them. Easy as pie. [21:58] you can not remove the linux disk you are using from linux. Sorry. [21:58] just as you can not remove %systemDrive% in windows. [21:58] you can with livecd [21:59] Sysi, you can remove the partition from the drive, yes. But no You can never remove the system drive from within the booted system. [21:59] unless you run some freak os like BeOS. [22:00] R3 [22:00] my friend has done interesting things with debian.. [22:00] fsck to entire drive without reboot [22:00] Sysi, you can thrash it to unbootable but the table is still there. [22:01] i'm familiar with partitioning [22:01] i can't eat my head :b [22:01] wow, i need some good wallpapers.... I particularlar one with the dark background and the green saturn like planet.. [22:02] Sysi, my father can bite his own head. [22:02] but not eat entirely [22:02] nope [22:03] he can also bite his own eye without removing his dentures. [22:03] glass eye? [22:03] i think it is porcelein [22:03] but teah [22:03] yeh* [22:10] hi [22:18] Can someone tell me where the XFCE panel location (e.g. panel 1 top, 20px; panel 2 bottom, 24px) is stored in? [22:20] ~/.config/xfce4/panel/panels.xml i guess [22:21] How looks that command for console-partition manager [22:21] I can't remember.. It's something like fsdisk [22:21] or something [22:22] fdisk [22:22] or parted [22:25] Thy, Sysi! I found that file and put everything from "~/.config/xfce4/panel" to "/etc/skel". The contents are then copied during installation. Nevertheless the panels are not the way I expect them. :-( [23:06] n8 [23:12] My panels.xml gets awas overwritten. Do you have a clue why?
