| nikolam | why plugins use so much ram in xfce? | 09:42 |
| nikolam | keyboard plugin 15 megs, etc | 09:42 |
| Sysi | to what are you comparing? | 09:42 |
| nikolam | Sysi, to nothing. I compare to common sense. Since I don't believe simple keyboard plugin must use 15 megs of RAM | 10:42 |
| TheSheep | nikolam: compare to gnome/kde plugins | 11:16 |
| jrmy | i'll have the iso downloaded shortly of xubuntu 10.04 but i dont know how to burn it on windows 7 | 12:36 |
| jrmy | im using a dvd+r for the image burning | 12:36 |
| bazhang | infrarecorder | 12:36 |
| jrmy | will imgburn work just the same? | 12:36 |
| jrmy | imgburn is what i have atm | 12:37 |
| bazhang | could do, infrarecorder is the only one I know | 12:37 |
| jrmy | is there a wiki for this question? | 12:37 |
| jrmy | or even help on the xubuntu website? | 12:37 |
| bazhang | not for windows, you could try ##windows though | 12:38 |
| Sysi | !burning | 12:38 |
| ubottu | CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 12:38 |
| jrmy | what do you select with infrarecorder? | 12:38 |
| bazhang | the iso? | 12:38 |
| jrmy | yes | 12:38 |
| jrmy | for a dvd burn | 12:38 |
| bazhang | then choose burn to disk, or right click | 12:38 |
| jrmy | that simple? | 12:38 |
| bazhang | should be | 12:39 |
| jrmy | i know speed being low is important | 12:39 |
| bazhang | if you try to drag and drop it should prompt you | 12:39 |
| jrmy | i might try imgburn anyways | 12:39 |
| bazhang | depends really, I get the torrent and burn at full speed | 12:39 |
| jrmy | ok i think i might just have it verify after burning | 12:42 |
| jrmy | i'll just go with whatever i try | 12:42 |
| bazhang | sounds good | 12:42 |
| jrmy | this laptop i want to use it with might just really suck | 12:42 |
| bazhang | if you have a usb stick you can use unetbootin | 12:42 |
| jrmy | i really want something better | 12:42 |
| jrmy | yeah.. like i said it really sucks | 12:42 |
| bazhang | provided your computer boots from usb | 12:43 |
| jrmy | i dont even think it boots from the disc drive properly | 12:43 |
| bazhang | heh | 12:43 |
| jrmy | stupid gateway | 12:43 |
| jrmy | i tried to boot puppy with this computer and it didnt work, worked fine on the other one though | 12:44 |
| bazhang | ok | 12:44 |
| jrmy | im going to assume the same will happen with xubuntu | 12:44 |
| jrmy | is there a way to change ubuntu into xubuntu? | 12:45 |
| bazhang | well if bootoptions dont work out, there is the alternate installer | 12:45 |
| bazhang | !bootoptions | 12:45 |
| ubottu | For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 12:45 |
| jrmy | im running ubuntu 10.04 right now | 12:45 |
| bazhang | jrmy, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 12:45 |
| bazhang | jrmy, then choose from the login screen | 12:46 |
| jrmy | from the login screen? | 12:46 |
| bazhang | any of the -desktop packages can do that. | 12:46 |
| jrmy | rhetorical btw | 12:46 |
| bazhang | kubuntu, edubuntu, ubuntustudio, xubuntu, lubuntu | 12:46 |
| jrmy | so i'd have both? | 12:46 |
| bazhang | or as many as you want | 12:47 |
| jrmy | i might try that | 12:47 |
| bazhang | then just choose which one to log in with each time, or set one as default | 12:47 |
| jrmy | and if i dont want one of them anymore? | 12:47 |
| bazhang | a lot less hassle then installing a whole new iso | 12:47 |
| jrmy | i'll agree | 12:48 |
| bazhang | then !purekde !puregnome !purexubuntu (not sure about last) | 12:48 |
| bazhang | !purexfce | 12:48 |
| jrmy | !pure uninstalls? | 12:48 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:48 |
| bazhang | it gives instructions | 12:48 |
| bazhang | !purekde | 12:48 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 12:49 |
| bazhang | for example^^ | 12:49 |
| bazhang | psychocats.net should have the purexfce one | 12:49 |
| bazhang | ie xubuntu | 12:49 |
| jrmy | ok so basically the command interprets "to have this only" | 12:50 |
| bazhang | well the webpage links to instructions on how to remove the other DE | 12:50 |
| jrmy | what is DE? | 12:50 |
| jrmy | and KDE | 12:50 |
| bazhang | you can copy and paste the instructions into a terminal and then voila | 12:50 |
| bazhang | GNOME, KDE, LXDE, XFCE4, etc | 12:51 |
| jrmy | ok | 12:51 |
| bazhang | not simply a window manager, but a suite of applications as well | 12:51 |
| Sysi | (desktop enviroment) | 12:51 |
| bazhang | like xubuntu uses thunar instead of nautilus as a file manager, etc. | 12:52 |
| jrmy | ok | 12:52 |
| bazhang | lubuntu has chromium as the default browser instead of firefox | 12:52 |
| jrmy | well im installing xubuntu now | 12:52 |
| bazhang | ok | 12:52 |
| jrmy | and xubuntu? | 12:52 |
| bazhang | firefox I'd guess | 12:53 |
| bazhang | you can easily switch that out though | 12:53 |
| jrmy | ok | 12:53 |
| bazhang | chromium-browser is the package name | 12:53 |
| jrmy | ok so if i have xubuntu loaded upon login are other files still the same? | 12:54 |
| bazhang | sure | 12:55 |
| bazhang | if by other files you mean stuff in home | 12:55 |
| jrmy | ok i'd have to clarify that | 12:55 |
| jrmy | and yes i mean that | 12:55 |
| bazhang | yep | 12:55 |
| jrmy | ok | 12:55 |
| jrmy | i'll also find out once i do so | 12:55 |
| bazhang | in future you might consider a separate /home partition | 12:55 |
| jrmy | heh | 12:55 |
| jrmy | well i need to eat | 12:56 |
| bazhang | oh yeah, nothing to find out, it'll be the same | 12:56 |
| bazhang | ok, good luck | 12:56 |
| jrmy | ok | 12:56 |
| jrmy | yep getting weak | 12:56 |
| jrmy | havent aten in 12+ hours | 12:56 |
| jrmy | ate* | 12:56 |
| bazhang | see you later | 12:56 |
| strep | hello! anybody knows why i can't open a terminal on the desktop? i'm using lucid lynx Xubuntu? when i try it says i have no permission | 13:02 |
| strep | actually it says : Le changement de répertoire « /home/jean/Bureau » a échoué (Permission non accordée). | 13:04 |
| strep | if anyone got a clue, thank you =) | 13:04 |
| jrmy | awesome | 13:05 |
| jrmy | french | 13:05 |
| jrmy | :] | 13:05 |
| Sysi | strep: what you're actually doing? | 13:05 |
| strep | Sysi nothing in particular, i just wanted to install commercial repository | 13:06 |
| strep | to then install skype | 13:07 |
| strep | i found another way to install fine, works fine, but no way to open the terminal anymore with right click on desktop | 13:07 |
| jrmy | ok, time to try xubuntu | 13:09 |
| jrmy | brb | 13:09 |
| jrmy | whats the command to log out? | 13:10 |
| jrmy | does xubuntu use gnome-terminal? | 13:12 |
| Sysi | xfce4-terminal | 13:13 |
| jrmy | whats that one like? | 13:13 |
| knome | very much like the gnome-terminal. | 13:13 |
| Sysi | better :P | 13:14 |
| jrmy | as long as i can customize it like how you can with the gnome terminal then i'll like it | 13:16 |
| Sysi | can you customize gnome terminal? | 13:16 |
| jrmy | yep | 13:16 |
| jrmy | as in make profiles for it | 13:16 |
| strep | have a nice day ;] | 13:16 |
| knome | there's no *profiles* for xfce4-terminal, but you can adjust the colors | 13:17 |
| jrmy | i liek how you can make the background transparent so you can see your desktop background | 13:17 |
| jrmy | how about changing the font and cursor type? | 13:18 |
| Sysi | easy | 13:18 |
| jrmy | good | 13:18 |
| jrmy | now only if i can log out of ubuntu so i can login with xubuntu | 13:19 |
| Sysi | do you know, you can make all this "customizing" even on very basic xterm, exept maybe opacity | 13:19 |
| jrmy | back | 13:31 |
| jrmy | ok so with ubuntu installed as well does it cause xubuntu to run slower? | 13:31 |
| bazhang | no | 13:32 |
| jrmy | ok so i can have both | 13:32 |
| jrmy | i might delete the ubuntu files | 13:33 |
| jrmy | but idk if that matters | 13:33 |
| bazhang | not really, but easily accomplished | 13:33 |
| jrmy | i do liek xubuntu alot | 13:34 |
| jrmy | from little of what ive seen | 13:34 |
| jrmy | :D | 13:34 |
| jrmy | bazhang: you there anymore? | 13:43 |
| bazhang | jrmy, sorry, yes | 13:44 |
| jrmy | is there channels that are specific states for xubuntu liek ubuntu? | 13:45 |
| bazhang | oh loco channels? | 13:45 |
| bazhang | probably all are okay in those, afaik | 13:45 |
| bazhang | lots fewer users, so less need to segregate by DE | 13:46 |
| bazhang | !loco | 13:46 |
| ubottu | Information on Ubuntu Local Community Teams is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams | 13:46 |
| bazhang | there's a link on that page to the full list | 13:47 |
| jrmy | so is xubuntu sorta like its own thing or is it of more of a connection with ubuntu liek as far as community and development? | 13:50 |
| bazhang | part of the whole community | 13:51 |
| bazhang | its the same stuff underneath, after all | 13:51 |
| bazhang | same repos, etc | 13:52 |
| jrmy | ok | 13:52 |
| jrmy | so basically #ubuntu-us-mi is the place to go for me | 13:52 |
| bazhang | should do, though here is fine as well :) | 13:53 |
| jrmy | ok | 13:54 |
| jrmy | really depends if any of the users in my state use xubuntu | 13:55 |
| jrmy | though i wouldnt think there is to many differences | 13:55 |
| jrmy | now i just need to get a new power adapter and maybe a new battery | 14:31 |
| jrmy | i dont know why my friend bought a power adapter that was less then needed on both voltage and current | 14:32 |
| * jrmy shakes his head | 14:32 | |
