[00:43] <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..
[01:09] <Radio> how can I move a window whose controls have moved off screen?

[06:03] <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 ?
[06:05] <xulu> Is there a way to set up Totem Movie Player to display *.wmv files ?

[06:19] <xulu> Makefile:159: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.  Stop.
[06:20] <xulu> How can I install kernel source ?
[06:24] <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
[06:25] <Sysi> iirc xubuntu-restricted-extras contains video codecs for totem
[07:35] <xulu> linux-headers package -- what do I use to install ? I can't find package linux-headers in the Ubuntu Software Center
[07:40] <drizzt_> xulu, use synaptic
[07:41] <drizzt_> xulu, I believe it's linux-headers-generic
[08:08] <arpad2> can i boot 10.04 from cd-rw?
[08:13] <xulu> I have not used CD-RW this time but I have in the past for various Linux distros and it did boot successfull.
[08:14] <arpad2> ok, i have problems now
[08:14] <arpad2> but now i will burn live cd with verifying data
[08:16] <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
[08:17] <arpad2> it freezes during the boot
[09:16] <nikolam> I miss zfs snapshots on xubuntu
[09:17] <nikolam> do someone knows if volume snapshots could work together with software raid on linux?
[09:18] <nikolam> I think there is backintime application in ubuntu repositories that can make something like this on program/userland level
[09:26] <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
[09:27] <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
[09:28] <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
[09:29] <nikolam> I stopped using fglrx since in 10.04 amd does not support my gpu anymore (x1250, 690g)
[09:30] <nikolam> WOW. now I can not log into account. it get me back to login screen after loging in
[09:31] <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)
[09:32] <nikolam> nope, even after I killed it not ablo to log in again
[09:35] <nikolam> Interestigly, if I run `startx` after logging in console, I end up in gnome  ;)
[09:37] <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
[09:43] <nikolam> where are those settings for xfce, that I can purge from command line?
[09:45] <raevol> honestly i am not sure, sorry
[09:45] <raevol> let me see if i can make an educated guess
[09:46] <raevol> in ~./config there is an xfce4
[09:47] <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
[09:49] <mr_pouit> $HOME/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfwm4.xml
[09:50] <mr_pouit> you can change the theme property back to a value that works, e.g. Albatross
[09:51] <nikolam> mr_pouit, I should disable that theme that kills the system
[09:53] <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
[09:54] <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?
[09:55] <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
[10:05] <drizzt_> nikolam, themes contain executabl code which can cause exceptions
[10:06] <nikolam> drizzt_, so actually, one fine theme site can do whatever he wants with one`s system.
[10:07] <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
[10:09] <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
[10:10] <drizzt_> nikolam, no, it's GTK problem
[10:11] <drizzt_> applications written in GTK terminate themselves if connection to X server is lost
[10:12] <nikolam> applications are separate issue
[10:13] <nikolam> I also have seen now one application that does not terminate itself, xfapplet and use 100 percent cpu even after user logged off.

[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
[15:28] <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
[15:29] <fuyao> looks like i have to waste another dvd for the 10.04, i dont have any rewritables
[15:29] <technikfreak> dvd

[21:30] <likemindead> Hmm...
[21:32] <dbusprob> it does not
[21:53] <likemindead> So, are GTK themes equally compatible in Xfce as they are in GNOME? Same thing?
[21:53] <Sysi> should be
[21:54] <likemindead> Interesting.
[22:07] <likemindead> So what is it that makes Xfce so much lighter than GNOME?
[22:22] <babarosa> Hello to everyone! Will there also be a Xubuntu 10.04.1 version published in July 2010 as I read about Ubuntu?
[22:25] <likemindead> Likely, I'd think.
