| nikin | hy. i found a bug... can someone help to check it? If i copy to one pendrive, i can not unmount an other. My idea is that the problem is coused by the "sync" operation not ending, but thats only a guess.. | 00:43 |

| xulu | Hi. How can I launch mplayer in graphical mode ? and where is the icon to click on to launch mplayer ? I want to play some *.wmv files, but cannot with Movie Player nor VLC. I just installed mplayer via Ubuntu Software Center but cannot find the icon. Right clicking on the *.vmw file does not show open with mplayer and issuing mplayer within a terminal session just gives the usage. Is mplayer only text based, is there a GUI ? | 06:03 |
| xulu | Is there a way to set up Totem Movie Player to display *.wmv files ? | 06:05 |

| xulu | Makefile:159: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again. Stop. | 06:19 |
| xulu | How can I install kernel source ? | 06:20 |
| drizzt_ | xulu, install linux-headers package | 06:24 |
| Sysi | xulu: for your first question, install smplayer | 06:24 |
| drizzt_ | xulu, and gcc | 06:24 |
| Sysi | or vlc | 06:24 |
| Sysi | iirc xubuntu-restricted-extras contains video codecs for totem | 06:25 |
| xulu | linux-headers package -- what do I use to install ? I can't find package linux-headers in the Ubuntu Software Center | 07:35 |
| drizzt_ | xulu, use synaptic | 07:40 |
| drizzt_ | xulu, I believe it's linux-headers-generic | 07:41 |
| arpad2 | can i boot 10.04 from cd-rw? | 08:08 |
| xulu | I have not used CD-RW this time but I have in the past for various Linux distros and it did boot successfull. | 08:13 |
| arpad2 | ok, i have problems now | 08:14 |
| arpad2 | but now i will burn live cd with verifying data | 08:14 |
| xulu | I am a newbie... if you get that far, try to perform a scan media test before attempting to install; but you have to be able to get as far as booting to the very first menu | 08:16 |
| arpad2 | it freezes during the boot | 08:17 |
| nikolam | I miss zfs snapshots on xubuntu | 09:16 |
| nikolam | do someone knows if volume snapshots could work together with software raid on linux? | 09:17 |
| nikolam | I think there is backintime application in ubuntu repositories that can make something like this on program/userland level | 09:18 |
| nikolam | OH my GOD | 09:26 |
| nikolam | I was changing windows manager skins now | 09:26 |
| nikolam | and it killed ALL my X apps | 09:26 |
| nikolam | Yws, Xubuntu 10.04 64-bit | 09:26 |
| raevol | wow what did you do | 09:26 |
| nikolam | just clicking on a skin for window manager | 09:27 |
| nikolam | I think it is second from the bottom | 09:27 |
| raevol | in appearances? | 09:27 |
| nikolam | and it exploded | 09:27 |
| nikolam | yes | 09:27 |
| raevol | or appearance or w/e | 09:27 |
| raevol | let me try | 09:27 |
| raevol | seems to work fine | 09:28 |
| mr_pouit | there have been reports that trying the "wildbush" xfwm4 theme will kill X | 09:28 |
| nikolam | Someone could expect maybe to just window manager die or something. | 09:28 |
| raevol | must be something else about your system | 09:28 |
| nikolam | But not for X to restart argh | 09:28 |
| nikolam | I use free ati-amd driver that came with the 10.04 | 09:28 |
| raevol | ah i use fglrx | 09:28 |
| nikolam | mmm let me log in to see if i can reproduce it | 09:28 |
| nikolam | I stopped using fglrx since in 10.04 amd does not support my gpu anymore (x1250, 690g) | 09:29 |
| nikolam | WOW. now I can not log into account. it get me back to login screen after loging in | 09:30 |
| raevol | ugh | 09:31 |
| nikolam | And Yes.. thare is one nasty xfce4-xfapplet- ... using 100 percent cpu in top | 09:31 |
| nikolam | I think I also had numerous trouble with xfapplet before (I think one that gives ability to run gnome applets on top of it) | 09:31 |
| nikolam | nope, even after I killed it not ablo to log in again | 09:32 |
| nikolam | Interestigly, if I run `startx` after logging in console, I end up in gnome ;) | 09:35 |
| nikolam | Ok. I can not log in to Xfce default desktop on my account in normal way, througth gdm | 09:37 |
| nikolam | seems like xfce settings needs to be purged or something | 09:37 |
| nikolam | where are those settings for xfce, that I can purge from command line? | 09:43 |
| raevol | honestly i am not sure, sorry | 09:45 |
| raevol | let me see if i can make an educated guess | 09:45 |
| raevol | in ~./config there is an xfce4 | 09:46 |
| raevol | i have NO IDEA what will happen if you delete it | 09:47 |
| raevol | but... there it is | 09:47 |
| raevol | i must away | 09:47 |
| raevol | good luck! | 09:47 |
| nikolam | aha | 09:47 |
| mr_pouit | $HOME/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml | 09:49 |
| mr_pouit | you can change the theme property back to a value that works, e.g. Albatross | 09:50 |
| nikolam | mr_pouit, I should disable that theme that kills the system | 09:51 |
| nikolam | Hm wildbush was selected there. | 09:53 |
| nikolam | .. | 09:53 |
| nikolam | But I wonder.. how can one theme kill windows manager. and moreover, how it could happen to kill X , in the first place | 09:53 |
| nikolam | It woould be bad enough to kill wm, he should not bekilled because of that | 09:54 |
| nikolam | but for X itself to drop because of that is very much not good. | 09:54 |
| mr_pouit | nikolam: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfwm4-themes/+bug/573516 | 09:54 |
| mr_pouit | could you add the infos asked by charlie-tca here? | 09:54 |
| mr_pouit | I can't reproduce, neither on a real system nor a vm, so I guess it's hw/driver-related | 09:55 |
| nikolam | will see it now | 09:55 |
| drizzt_ | nikolam, themes contain executabl code which can cause exceptions | 10:05 |
| nikolam | drizzt_, so actually, one fine theme site can do whatever he wants with one`s system. | 10:06 |
| mr_pouit | no | 10:07 |
| mr_pouit | xfwm4 don't contain executable code… | 10:07 |
| mr_pouit | *xfwm4 themes | 10:07 |
| drizzt_ | nikolam, they contain gtk engines | 10:07 |
| drizzt_ | gtk engine is executable | 10:07 |
| mr_pouit | drizzt_: we're speaking of xfwm4 themes here | 10:07 |
| mr_pouit | so definitely, no | 10:07 |
| nikolam | so its xfwm problem that it likes to pull X with it whan it dies and likes to die when theme is not so great | 10:09 |
| drizzt_ | nikolam, no, it's GTK problem | 10:10 |
| drizzt_ | applications written in GTK terminate themselves if connection to X server is lost | 10:11 |
| nikolam | applications are separate issue | 10:12 |
| nikolam | I also have seen now one application that does not terminate itself, xfapplet and use 100 percent cpu even after user logged off. | 10:13 |

| fuyao | then i have to spend a whole good 12 hours to upgrade to 10.04 | 15:27 |
| technikfreak | mh and why you didn*t burn a new one? | 15:27 |
| technikfreak | directly with 10.03 | 15:27 |
| technikfreak | 10.04 sorry | 15:27 |
| fuyao | i should burn the iso image on a rewriteable disc | 15:27 |
| fuyao | so i can overwrite the 8.04 | 15:27 |
| technikfreak | yeah | 15:28 |
| technikfreak | delete the old one | 15:28 |
| technikfreak | and in the installation type that yopu would like use the whole hdd | 15:28 |
| technikfreak | or disk | 15:28 |
| technikfreak | than you shouldn'Ät have any problems | 15:28 |
| fuyao | looks like i have to waste another dvd for the 10.04, i dont have any rewritables | 15:29 |
| technikfreak | dvd | 15:29 |
| technikfreak | and what about USB disk? | 15:29 |

| likemindead | Hmm... | 21:30 |
| dbusprob | it does not | 21:32 |
| likemindead | So, are GTK themes equally compatible in Xfce as they are in GNOME? Same thing? | 21:53 |
| Sysi | should be | 21:53 |
| likemindead | Interesting. | 21:54 |
| likemindead | So what is it that makes Xfce so much lighter than GNOME? | 22:07 |
| babarosa | Hello to everyone! Will there also be a Xubuntu 10.04.1 version published in July 2010 as I read about Ubuntu? | 22:22 |
