[01:57] <Venim> anyone know where the xfce session files are stored?
[01:57] <Venim> i'm trying to get the command I set up for a "run at startup" from my old install
[04:08] <robertzaccour> is ubuntu switching to gnome shell in maverick?
[04:16] <robertzaccour> anyone here?
[04:16] <Raggs> yep
[04:22] <robertzaccour> i left too soon?
[04:23] <Raggs> well, i did answer you, then you left
[04:23] <pleia2> robertzaccour: you're in the Xubuntu channel which uses XFCE, not Gnome as a desktop environment, you're probably better off asking in a regular Ubuntu channel :)
[04:23] <Raggs> xfce rocks
[04:23] <pleia2> +1
[04:23] <robertzaccour> I'm starting to think so. if shell is the future of gnome, then xfce count me in
[04:25] <pleia2> last I heard it wouldn't be default (but it would be in the repos), but it's been a few months since I've kept up
[04:27] <robertzaccour> still, it seems to be the future of it
[04:27] <Raggs> embrace the future
[04:28] <robertzaccour> i wonder if xubuntu maverick will have a new theme
[04:28] <robertzaccour> the current one is great
[04:29] <robertzaccour> oh, i tried to use the android os, it wouldn't boot up the live session
[04:30] <Raggs> LC I am using buntu
[04:42] <robertzaccour> does xubuntu have the window buttons on the left side?
[04:51] <pleia2> robertzaccour: no
[06:58] <robertzaccour> will there be Xubuntu distros for the next several years?
[06:59] <Raggs> robertzaccour, hard to know what will happen in a couple years isnt it?
[07:08] <robertzaccour> yes true
[07:08] <Raggs> but of course
[10:11] <slow-motion> hi
[12:25] <slow-motion> re
[12:47] <giampiero> Hello. How can I show registry file?
[12:51] <knome> giampiero, by registry file, you mean what?
[12:51] <giampiero> The log file showing error messages at startup.
[12:52] <knome> giampiero, see in /var/log/
[12:56] <giampiero> I see plenty of files. Which one should I open?
[12:56] <knome> what are you looking for?
[12:56] <giampiero> Error messages at startup.
[12:56] <knome> which error messages?
[12:57] <knome> what about looking at boot.log?
[12:57] <giampiero> The ones the pc prompts for too short to read them.
[12:57] <knome> different things are logged in different places
[12:58] <moetunes> try /var/log/syslog
[12:58] <giampiero> Is there an application allowing to handle them?
[13:00] <knome> handle? you mean read?
[13:27] <giampiero> I get this error message at startup: "rsyslogd-2039: Could no open output file '/dev/xconsole'"
[13:27] <giampiero> This file doesn't exist. Is it supposed to exist? How can I fix it?

[17:14] <Dr4x> hi there
[17:15] <Dr4x> i was on ubuntu, i installed xfce i wanted to remove gnome, but now my Wine can't start 3D apps (i dunno why)
[17:15] <Dr4x> i had to reinstall the nvidia driver but it's still not working any idea?
[18:03] <slow-motion> hi
[18:12] <judgen> I need some cool new free games. I dont play fps, but otherwise im open to mostly anything.
[18:41] <Dr4x> hi, is there any known compatibility problems between xubuntu-desktop and wine + 3D games ?
[18:42] <Dr4x> coz i had gnome + 3D games working perfectly, i removed the ubuntu-desktop, installed the xubuntu-desktop and it doesn't work anymore :(
[19:19] <duckslammer> greasings and salivations to all my fine fiends
[19:20] <duckslammer> can anyone tell me where the setting is that associates file names to applications?  i have just installed open office and it is not being recognized by firefox when i download a .doc file and there is no place in firefox to add a mime type
[19:21] <duckslammer> hello?
[19:22] <likemindead> You want it to be associated with OOo?
[19:22] <duckslammer> yes
[19:22] <likemindead> That would be cool. I've always thought about it, but never bothered to do anything about it.
[19:22] <duckslammer> can't think how to describe this so i could google it
[19:23] <duckslammer> i've just upgraded to 10.04 - in previous version the installation would set it up automatically
[19:23] <likemindead> I think I've got it sorted.
[19:24] <duckslammer> ?
[19:24] <likemindead> Right-click on a .doc file, "Open With Other Application" & then click the default box at the bottom before you select OOo.
[19:25] <duckslammer> ok but will taht add it to firefox's mime types?
[19:25] <likemindead> Don't know about that.
[19:26] <likemindead> What about Firefox Preferences>Applications ?
[19:27] <duckslammer> went there - there's not a way to add to it
[19:27] <duckslammer> although there are examples of adding to it in the firefox docs, there isn't an option in the linux version of firefox to do it
[19:28] <duckslammer> apparently you do it on mac and windows
[19:30] <likemindead> Hmm...
[19:31] <duckslammer> thunar does know about OO but firefox doesn't
[19:31] <duckslammer> maybe i need to reload firefox
[19:32] <duckslammer> that was it -- ok, problem solved - but i wish i could find a way to add mime types
[19:33] <duckslammer> ok, irc question: how do you register a nick?

[20:29] <kpel> hi. do you also get a message from software updater that there is a new dpkg package but it cannot be authenticated?
[20:29] <kpel> i'm using xubuntu 10.04 LTS
[20:46] <likemindead> Try "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" in a Terminal, kpel.
[20:48] <kpel> likemindead: before i do that, can you please check if you see this problem if you have set the updater to pick up proposed updates?
[20:48] <likemindead> I've never really used the update manager GUI. I just do everything in the Terminal. What do you want me to check, exactly?
[20:50] <kpel> you know how you have control over what sort of updates you should notified? like security fixes, recommended updates, proposed updates etc
[20:50] <likemindead> Right.
[20:51] <Sysi> iirc that happened to me, i just installed updates in terminal if gui didn't offer workaroun
[20:51] <kpel> i was wondering if this problem occurs because the dpkg package in question is a proposed update i.e. part of lucid-proposed, not of lucid-security or lucid-updates
[20:51] <kpel> likemindead: this is the url to the bug that this new package is supposed to fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/570805
[20:52] <kpel> perhaps they did something wrong with the package signing
[20:52] <kpel> i'll post a comment there as soon as i make a Launchpad account
[20:53] <kpel> Sysi: the gui allows me to override the warning about the authentication. wht i am trying to find out is if someone is doing something naught (e.g. a server may have been compromised) or if this is just human error
[20:56] <Sysi> i trust to ubuntu servers and installation media
[20:56] <Sysi> it's nothing like random websites of win-software
[21:00] <kpel> Sysi: true. unfortunately in the past a debian server was compromised and was modified to serve trojaned versions of a certain package every Nth request for download. So it is not impossible for something similar to happen with a popular distro.
[21:01] <Sysi> right
[21:01] <kpel> most likely this specific issue is a problem with the auth keys but it's better to be sure. I added a comment to the bug report.
[21:07] <kpel> Sysi: yep. google it if you like. you'll find that even openbsd.org got compromised and was serving trojaned OpenSSH packages. But that was years ago.
[21:08] <Sysi> (openbsd :DD)
[21:14] <kpel> yeap. they have a good history regarding security but evidently they are not perfect.
[22:45] <cdoublejj> is installing fluxbox as easy as synaptics manager and then logging out and choosing fluxbox?
[22:45] <cdoublejj> as i understand xfce would be like having na extra program
[22:46] <cdoublejj> and after logon it wouls use lfuxbox
[22:46] <cdoublejj> i'm a some what newb
[22:46] <Sysi> it's like you described
[22:46] <cdoublejj> wow
[22:46] <Sysi> if you choose fluxbox, xfce isn't used
[22:47] <cdoublejj> never done any major mods/changes to *ubuntu
[22:49] <cdoublejj> do i need fluxconf too?
[22:49] <cdoublejj> or is it just supplemental
[23:03] <Kiana> Hello. I have trouble finding a working driver for my graphics card VIA P4M800Pro [S3 UniChrome Pro]. Is it actually supported? All drivers I tried on Xubuntu yesterday only allowed vga. Now on OpenSUSE it isn' t any different
