hlppcan anyone tell me how to install monitor driver on Xubuntu 9.014:36
bazhanghlpp, you don't need a monitor driver14:36
hlppapparently I do14:36
hlppI can't set a correct resolution14:36
hlppon Samsung14:36
bazhangnot for xubuntu/ubuntu/kubuntu etc14:36
hlppand on iiyama it says "wrong frequency"14:36
bazhanghlpp, that would be your video card setting; nothing to do with monitor driver14:37
hlpphmm thanks, I updated my video card drivers, 'll reboot and see what happens14:37
hlppall ok now thx14:41

Ichathi - i got a really nasty and strang problem,18:09
Ichatwhen i try to install  xubuntu  9.10  or  10.4  to a pata disk  (foramly used in a raid aray. ) -   the installer is  borking me  that its trying to install to    /dev/mapper/eeeffaabb1     rather than to  hd0   or   sd118:11
Ichatregardless that i  allready destroyed its  parttion table  (with the installer,  and with  gparted    )     and also tryed  going from msdos to  GPT      but no luck stil18:12
Ichatin gpart i get to see booth,   dev/mapprer/abcdef1   and   dev/sda1    where as i only have 1 pata drive and a dvdrom drive18:13
likemindeadAre you using the alternate .iso Ichat?18:24
Ichatlikemindead:  - nope im not should i ?18:27
likemindeadIt's worth a shot.18:27
likemindeadAre you doing a fresh install or trying to dual-boot?18:28
Ichatfresh install18:28
likemindeadAnd even after formatting the disk first with GParted, you're having trouble?18:29
Ichatstrange is that   in gparted  (on  10.4 ) i only see  sda -   yet in the installer   i see      dev/mapper/eaabbee(somthing)    linear raid device18:29
Ichateven stranger,  the installer  sais its sata rather than pata18:29
Ichatyes in recreated the  partition table  GPT (and  msdos - both tried) -  in  gparted18:30
likemindeadWeird.18:31
likemindeadYou might try downloading the Parted Magic Live CD.18:31
Ichatmaybe if i could start the installer   with some sort of  'force to sda  )  i could try and bypass this...18:31
likemindeadhttp://partedmagic.com/18:32
Ichati have used the 4.9 live18:32
likemindeadIt's more robust than just gparted.18:32
likemindeadAh.18:32

judgenis there a way of reversing the left and middle mouse buttons functions on the titlebars in xfwm?23:09
knomejudgen, applications » settings » window manager » tab "style", see "button layout"23:10
knomeoh23:10
knomemouse buttons23:10
knomesorry...23:10
knomeno, i don't think that's possible23:10
judgenyeah the mouse buttons23:10
judgenouch23:11
knomejudgen, feel free to add a feature request in the xfce bugzilla so that can be discussed, but i'm not sure if the developers are willing to execute that23:12
judgenok, i will.I found the feature very helpful for me back when i used to use kde323:13
schlaftierjudgen: I'd second this feature request, I just realised it would be nice to be able to map "maximise vertically" to a mouse button23:13
judgenyeah, that would be lovely23:14
judgeni like to have "lower window" on the second button.23:14
schlaftierYou can define keyboard shortcut for all of these actions, so it shouldn't be hard to implement23:15
knomeschlaftier, feel free to second the feature request on xfce bugzilla, two people requesting something is more than oen23:15
schlaftierknome: that's what I thought23:16
siddhion_hey. i have a Transmission connection that goes up and down. It says my port is closed. I went to the Transmission port forwarding guide and it says I should disable my firewall. I am using a router so it should be safe (as the guide says) but is that REALLY safe?23:18
knomesiddhion_, just open the specific port23:20
judgeni cant find a feature request section. only bug reports..23:21
knomejudgen, file a bug. there should be a way to mark it as a feature request and if not, just write what you want in the description, and it will be handled as a feature request23:22
knomejudgen, you can additionally paste me the link and i can forward that to the developers just to be sure23:23
siddhion_knome: i see. so would i enter 'ufw allow tcp/51413' ?23:23
slow-motionn823:24
siddhion_knome: or is 'ufw allow 51413' ok?23:24
knomesiddhion_, i don't know tbh23:24
siddhion_knome: ok, thanks anyways.23:25
judgenknome, http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=653223:26
knomejudgen, cheers23:27
schlaftierjudgen: Thanks judgen, I will comment on your request :)23:27
judgennice23:28
judgenthanks23:28
schlaftierjudgen: Thanks again for submitting, I wrote a comment23:38
