| ron_o | wtf... every single font is incredibly off after upgrading to lucid? | 02:48 |
|---|---|---|
| ron_o | I mean, what the hell? | 02:48 |
| ron_o | opera is huge, xchat is very small.. | 02:48 |
| ron_o | my desktop was very tiny but now it's too huge to read? | 02:48 |
| ron_o | gawd, I guess I must reinstall everything from scratch no matter what. | 02:50 |
| ron_o | never mess with any kind of normal like function that satifies my own needs... | 02:51 |
| ron_o | frick, I'm so pissed off... | 02:51 |
| ron_o | maybe there should be a 'reset to normal mode' button. | 02:52 |

| ammini | Hey all, I'm using Xubuntu 10.4. I don't seem to have the panels on the top and bottom of the desktop, I suppose I might've unknowingly deleted it. How'd I add it back? | 08:26 |
| bazhang | !panels | 08:26 |
| ubottu | Did your panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/ | 08:26 |
| ammini | bazhang++ Excellent. | 08:27 |
| bazhang | ammini, welcome | 08:27 |
| ammini | This is my fiancee's pc with 512M RAM. I'm new to XUbuntu/XFCE/Thunar. I suppose this is the lightweight DE she'd run in this config, right? | 08:28 |
| bazhang | or lubuntu | 08:29 |
| bazhang | you can try by installing lubuntu-desktop and see | 08:29 |
| ammini | Ok, I'll try it bazhang. Thanks again. Appreciate your help. Byes and good day ahead. | 08:30 |
| ben72 | hi! I installed xubuntu on a friends old machine and one strange thing is that it automounts dvd:s but not cd:s! | 10:20 |
| Sysi | what kind of dvd? | 10:22 |
| ben72 | Sysi, not sure. I think it's a NEC or samsung. it's not that old | 10:29 |
| Sysi | ben72: i mean data dvd or movie | 11:09 |
| ben72 | sysi, movie dvd | 11:19 |
| ben72 | Sysi, there were no lines in fstab for the cd drives (there is one cd and one dvd) so I added them now and trying to restart.. | 11:25 |
| Sysi | !dvd | ben72 | 12:14 |
| ubottu | ben72: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 12:14 |
| buzz_ | Hi, does anyone know about Xubuntu's weird bootsplash problem ... actually Ubuntu has it too. | 12:17 |
| Sysi | what's it like? | 12:18 |
| buzz_ | The Xubuntu logo has odd colored auras around it at start and shutdown ... | 12:19 |
| ben72 | ubottu, there were no entries in fstab for the cd/dvd-drives. I tried adding them manually but it didn't automount after that either. now I added two icons for mounting manually running a script for it. and it does work but I hope I can get them to automount in the future.. | 12:19 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:19 |
| buzz_ | This is a new development. I see it on ThinkPad T41 & Dell L800 laptops. Was some change made to video drivers? | 12:20 |
| Sysi | buzz_: propietary drivers? | 12:20 |
| Sysi | ben72: i think it's not needed | 12:20 |
| ben72 | Sysi, what's not needed? | 12:21 |
| buzz_ | I have not installed any special drivers. Could you suggest what I should look into? | 12:21 |
| Sysi | line for cd drive in fstab | 12:21 |
| ben72 | Sysi, ok I have it in ubuntu so I tried it on the xubuntu as well.. | 12:22 |
| Sysi | worth a tru ofc | 12:22 |
| buzz_ | Sysi, the odd looking logos may seem not important. But they are kind of jarring -- and I like to show Linux to others. It is embarrassing. | 12:23 |
| Sysi | *try | 12:23 |
| ben72 | Sysi, nothing happens when I insert a data cd or music cd. and nothing is mounted under /media | 12:23 |
| ben72 | Sysi, but when I mount -t iso9660 /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 I can mount it.. | 12:23 |
| Sysi | oh well i misread things earlier, adding that line propably helps | 12:24 |
| ben72 | Sysi, strange that xubuntu didn't add it automagically like ubuntu does.. no it didn't help I'll have to debug it later. I'm just connected remotely to it sometimes when helping my friend.. | 12:41 |
| Sysi | ben72: xubuntu and ubuntu are exactly the same behind GUI | 12:41 |
| ben72 | yes I guess so, I tried ubuntu first but it was too slow on my friends computer with only 256Mb ram! =) | 12:42 |
| nirvana | hi, i can't get my sound drivers to work | 13:30 |

| nexus6__ | my screen turns off few times. but i turned screensaver off. any ideas? | 14:42 |
| Sysi | settings → xfce4 power manager, or click battery icon in panel | 14:43 |
| euphorial | I have used ubuntu and kubuntu for a long time now, and I have been curious about xubuntu. The about just says some general stuff about it, but comparable to the statements ubuntu and kubuntu have written about themselves. Can someone please tell me what the major advantage to having xubuntu would be, or why someone would choose it over u/kubuntu? | 14:48 |
| Sysi | memory usage and some features | 14:49 |
| Sysi | try and see :) | 14:49 |
| euphorial | I do want to try, but would like to get a couple examples of features. The current kubuntu installation I am using has been tweaked and customized out the wahoo, I don't really want to have to do it again. (sound problems, video, webcam issues)... | 14:50 |
| euphorial | Can you take a minute and possibly give me 1-3 features it may offer that would appeal to a general linux user? | 14:51 |
| euphorial | (please) :) | 14:51 |
| Sysi | well, xubuntu has simple menus for configuring | 14:53 |
| Sysi | you can have nice opacities and what i like, workspace switches | 14:53 |
| Sysi | gnome apps work well with xfce too | 14:54 |
| Sysi | you know you don't neet to reinstall entire *buntu to try other DE | 14:54 |
| Sysi | windowmanager settings are also great, keycontrols and buttons shown in panel | 14:55 |
| euphorial | ohh nice | 15:00 |
| euphorial | So would I just apt-get install xubuntu-desktop and after apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop ? | 15:01 |
| euphorial | (with all my settings saved)? | 15:01 |
| Sysi | !purexfce | if you want | 15:02 |
| ubottu | if you want: If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 15:02 |
| Sysi | settings aren't removed with that | 15:02 |
| Sysi | you don't need to remove kde to test xubuntu, just choose it on login | 15:03 |
| euphorial | ok so basically it will be like now, I have both gnome and kde (ubuntu and kubuntu), except this time I can choose from all three? or am I mistaken? | 15:04 |
| Sysi | that | 15:07 |
| kim0 | Hi folks .. I want to install a "light-weight" xfce desktop (i.e. not the full xubuntu) which pkg do I install ? | 15:27 |
| Sysi | xfce4 and xfce4-goodies | 15:29 |
| kim0 | Sysi: thanks .. doing it | 15:31 |
| kim0 | ubuntu's gnome is slow as molases for some reason | 15:32 |
| Sysi | how much ram, desktop effects turned off? | 15:32 |
| kim0 | 4G .. yes .. effects off | 15:33 |
| kim0 | still extremely slow | 15:33 |
| kim0 | It's because of some theme they're using | 15:33 |
| kim0 | gnome-settings-deamon had crashed .. the theme went back to something grey-only and very ugly .. | 15:34 |
| kim0 | but it was very fast as well | 15:34 |
| kim0 | unfortunately I dont know how it keep it grey/fast .. | 15:34 |
| kim0 | so I'm dropping all of it anyway.. I hope xfce will be prestine | 15:34 |
