[00:31] <totoro> hi, how can i enable wobbly windows and the 3d window switcher
[00:32] <Sysi> !compiz | totoro
[00:34] <totoro> sysi: i have those already, but it doesn't work
[00:34] <Sysi> have you set those to be in use?
[00:35] <Sysi> with ccsm
[00:35] <totoro> yes, they are in use
[00:35] <totoro> but they don't take effect
[00:35] <Sysi> does any effects work?
[00:36] <totoro> no..
[00:36] <totoro> i have the drivers installed, and it worked fine on gnome, compiz and everything
[00:37] <Sysi> compiz and xfce can be tricky combination
[00:38] <totoro> ah, it takes some editing?
[00:38] <totoro> i'm not sure how to do that...
[00:38] <Sysi> google knows
[00:39] <Sysi> i tried it long enough to see that it won't work with xfwm4 window borders and is irritating to configure
[01:36] <Arpad2> hello
[01:38] <Arpad2> after distro upgrade to lucid, there was a grub upgrade too, with the result that i cant boot win7 with grub. can smb help me with that? thank you for help!
[04:18] <jordan> Does anyone here know what the fourth button on the title bar is called? The one that retracts the window into the tittle bar?
[04:21] <n2diy> jordan, a PITA?
[06:49] <SoBe> hi guys
[06:50] <SoBe> i need help
[06:51] <SoBe> setting up dialup
[06:52] <SoBe> ?????
[06:54] <lighta> ask your question
[06:56] <SoBe> i wanna set up dailup using the instructions that come with xubuntu
[06:56] <SoBe> i got scanmodem
[06:56] <SoBe> but it says i need gedit
[06:57] <SoBe> where should i get that from
[07:02] <SoBe> and when i want to install gnome network admin, theres an error
[07:03] <SoBe> it says "error: dependency is not satisfiable: libiw29 (>= 28+29pre7)"
[07:03] <SoBe> can anybody help me please
[07:04] <pleia2> SoBe: gedit is just a text editor, it should be under Accessories
[07:05] <SoBe> it says i dont have it
[07:05] <pleia2> unfortunately I can't really help with dial-up
[07:06] <SoBe> the only problem is getting gedit and i dont know what that error means
[07:08] <pleia2> libiw29 is a package (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libiw29), and for some reason you can't get the right version
[07:08] <pleia2> how are you installing gnome network admin?
[07:08] <SoBe> so theres nothing i can do?
[07:08] <SoBe> uhm
[07:09] <SoBe> the installing thing
[07:09] <SoBe> its a .deb so i just double click it and it opens the installation box
[07:09] <SoBe> but the error comes up
[07:10] <SoBe> and i cant install it
[07:12] <pleia2> SoBe: gnome network manager depends on a lot of other things, are you online with this machine?
[07:13] <SoBe> no i use dialup
[07:13] <pleia2> that's going to be tricky then
[07:13] <pleia2> if you really need gnome network manager, there are a lot of packages you need to download and install on the machine
[07:13] <pleia2> including libiw29
[07:14] <SoBe> and i need gnome network manager to use gnome network admin?
[07:14] <pleia2> I think so, I'm not all that familiar with it
[07:15] <SoBe> oh
[07:15] <SoBe> then im screwed
[07:15] <pleia2> is there any way you can get online elsewhere just to download the packages?
[07:15] <SoBe> no its dual booted on my desktop
[07:16] <SoBe> i could use my dad's laptop to get the packages, put em in my usb, and transfer them over
[07:17] <pleia2> yeah, that's really difficult because it depends on a lot of things
[07:17] <SoBe> but until the weekend
[07:17] <SoBe> about how much would that be in size?
[07:17] <pleia2> I'm really not sure
[07:18] <pleia2> sorry :\
[07:18] <SoBe> well my dad has fast internet
[07:18] <SoBe> it wouldnt be too hard to put the files in my usb flash drive
[07:18] <SoBe> then transfer and install
[07:19] <SoBe> by the way im using xubuntu
[07:20] <SoBe> are there links to download these packages?
[07:21] <SoBe> ?
[07:23] <pleia2> SoBe: do you have a regular ubuntu cd? that comes with network manager so you can probably add the cd to synaptic and install it from there
[07:24] <pleia2> unfortunately it's late here, time for me to head to bed
[07:24] <SoBe> yeah i have a regular ubuntu cd
[07:25] <SoBe> what's synaptic?
[07:25] <SoBe> so ubuntu has all the packages?
[07:34] <SoBe> okay
[07:41] <SoBe> alright so can i install gnome network manager from an ubuntu cd using synaptic package manager?
[14:52] <_chris__> how can i connect to a windows share ?
[14:52] <knome> !smb | _chris__
[15:54] <_chris__> heja. i mounted a windows share to my linux , now i want to copy some folders from linux to the windows share. i did it with "cp /folder/ -R /share/ .. now some files and folders have special german chars like 'ä' and when the file/folder arrives on the windows share the names with special chars are pretty fuxxed lol
[15:55] <_chris__> is there a parameter ican add or so to solve this ?
[16:19] <gnomefreak> xubuntu-desktop doesnt like ubuntu-desktop, they should be able to both be installed as it is with everyone other *-desktop
[18:20] <likemindead> Anyone else love the Shiki themes? :D
[18:42] <slow-motion> hi
[19:03] <narfjebus> hi all
[19:05] <narfjebus> i got a very annoying problem, since i installed xubuntu 10.04 on hardware that worked flawlessly with 9.10 and earlies releases, my mouse or keyboard suddenly begin to stutter or stop operation completely
[19:06] <narfjebus> this happens even while there is absolutely no userinteraction with the system and the problem persists until reboot - this is driving me crazy as it may happen several times a day
[19:07] <Sysi> are they wireless, usb or ps2?
[19:08] <narfjebus> the mouse is a wired USB mouse, the keyboard is PS/2
[19:09] <narfjebus> changing USB ports didn't work, btw.
[19:16] <narfjebus> so there's no idea about that odd problem?
[19:19] <narfjebus> hell yeah, it just happened again ...
[19:19] <narfjebus> jesus christ, i'm even thinking of simply installing a MSDNAA Windows 7 :(
[19:39] <likemindead> Xfce isn't notifying me when my battery gets low. :-\
[19:51] <schlaftier> seems his battery's empty... seriously: why do people always leave when I'm about to answer them :(
