[02:10] <demond3> i've got a problem with my sound card can someone help me im new with linux
[02:11] <likemindead> !sound
[02:12] <likemindead> Try those first. :D
[02:13] <demond3> thx
[03:43] <autif> i have a zsync question - if i get the daily build today - i will get the whole 700 MB. When I do the zsync again tomorrow - will I get another 700 MB or just the diff between the two ISO files?
[03:44] <charlie-tca__> I believe just the differences
[03:45] <autif> even if there is just one file?
[03:45] <autif> nice!
[03:45] <charlie-tca__> It compares what you have to what is on the server and downloads the parts that changed, even though you have a single file
[08:43] <Wizard> hi
[09:00] <Wizard> is there any civilisated way of browsing/mounting smb in xubuntu?
[09:01] <Sysi> gigolo
[09:03] <jrmy> is there a python channel?
[09:03] <jrmy> yes
[09:04] <moetunes> there's #python
[09:04] <jrmy> hence yes
[09:13] <Wizard> Sysi: that was to me? :D
[09:13] <Sysi> yes
[09:13] <Sysi> it's installed by default
[09:14] <moetunes> !info gigolo
[09:14] <moetunes> default in xubuntu
[09:14] <Sysi> i've never managed to use that for ssh mounts myself :p
[09:15] <moetunes> having no windows here I prefer nfs
[09:15] <Sysi> it needs setting up
[09:15] <Sysi> sshfs works well
[09:15] <moetunes> one file needs editing
[09:16] <moetunes> sorry - one per comp
[09:16] <moetunes> but I am old school
[09:17] <moetunes> different strokes for different folks - it's good that there are options :]
[09:18] <Wizard> moetunes: at work i don't have much choice ;)
[09:18] <Wizard> thanks Sysi
[09:18] <Sysi> np
[09:19] <Sysi> i'm considering opensuse atm
[09:19] <Wizard> heh
[09:19] <Wizard> it'll be killed soon
[09:20] <Sysi> it was rather nice
[09:20] <moetunes> suse does do the "no command line" thing very well
[09:21] <Sysi> i onle do basic stuff on cli
[09:21] <Sysi> * only
[09:22] <moetunes> the bootloader thing they have was impressive last time I tried it
[09:22] <Sysi> suse just isn't really xfce-distribution
[09:23] <moetunes> kde or gnome mostly
[09:23] <Sysi> i *could* use kde
[09:24] <moetunes> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSJyJ9JuY5E ? - impressed me - scared of the resources it would use tho
[09:24] <moetunes> kubuntu^^
[09:24] <Sysi> *buntu isn't really kde distro :P
[09:25] <Wizard> hmm
[09:25] <Sysi> though it worked well
[09:25] <Wizard> i thing xubuntu is the best option right now
[09:25] <Sysi> jockey-gtk gave me a bit of headache
[09:26] <Wizard> what is jockey? :>
[09:26] <moetunes> another middleman app...
[09:27] <Sysi> argh, what is it in english menu
[09:27] <Wizard> languages?
[09:27] <Sysi> propietary drivers installer
[09:27] <Wizard> ah
[09:28] <moetunes> !info kockey-gtk
[09:28] <Wizard> i don't use that
[09:28] <moetunes> !info jockey-gtk
[09:39] <jrmy> is there a way to update xchat with a command?
[09:40] <Sysi> "update"?
[09:41] <Wizard> apt-get upgrade xchat
[09:41] <moetunes> update the installed app or what's coming in from channels jrmy ?
[09:41] <jrmy> installed app
[09:43] <moetunes> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade   will upgrade everything - using synaptic you can update and check for new version
[09:44] <moetunes> ubuntu doesn't generally upgrade apps between releases - is the backports repo enabled jrmy ?
[09:44] <jrmy> i should start typing in all of these commands
[09:44] <jrmy> i dont know
[09:44] <jrmy> brb
[10:36] <jrmy> moetunes: explain backports repo
[10:36] <moetunes> !backports
[10:37] <moetunes> jrmy:  ^^
[10:37] <moetunes> does it better then i could ...
[10:38] <jrmy> how would i enable it?
[10:40] <jrmy> well it didnt upgrade anything so i dot think that works for xchat
[10:41] <moetunes> well lets start with the xubuntu version you have - if it is the current backports won't help much
[10:41] <moetunes> !version
[10:42] <Sysi> why do you need newer xchat?
[10:46] <moetunes> jrmy:  ^^
[10:48] <jrmy> idk.. i'd just assume it would be better
[10:48] <Sysi> erp
[10:49] <jrmy> im confused why it says i still have ubuntu yet i dont have anything of ubuntu installed anymore
[10:49] <jrmy> that i know of
[10:50] <Sysi> !xubuntu
[10:50] <Sysi> that's why
[10:50] <jrmy> but i dont have gnome
[10:50] <jrmy> i already installed xubuntu
[10:50] <jrmy> i suppose i can try again
[10:51] <Sysi> "Xubuntu is Ubuntu..."
[10:51] <jrmy> i see
[10:51] <Sysi> what part is hard in that
[10:52] <jrmy> is the system monitor suppose to be a part of xubuntu?
[10:52] <jrmy> in this it says gnome 2.30.2
[10:53] <Sysi> in 10.04, it's installed by default
[10:53] <jrmy> idk i dont understand i guess
[10:55] <moetunes> xubuntu has the same base as ubuntu - xubuntu uses xfce where ubuntu uses gnome - some gnome apps are in xubuntu 'causes xfce uses gtk like gnome but is short of some things
[10:55] <moetunes> !gtk
[10:55] <moetunes> !xfce
[10:56] <moetunes> !gnome
[10:56] <moetunes> and to show the amazing choice gnu/linux has
[10:56] <moetunes> !fluxbox
[10:58] <jrmy> !gnu
[10:58] <jrmy> !unix
[10:58] <Sysi> !bsd
[10:59] <Sysi> bah
[10:59] <jrmy> what was the first unix os called?
[10:59] <jrmy> unix?
[10:59] <moetunes> yep
[10:59] <Sysi> nowdays it's just license
[11:00] <jrmy> so thats ancient history?
[11:00] <jrmy> unix
[11:00] <Sysi> operating system created in the '70s
[11:00] <moetunes> no it is still used - you have to pat for it tho
[11:01] <jrmy> pat?
[11:01] <moetunes> *pay
[11:01] <jrmy> oh
[11:01] <jrmy> so with linux they wanted to make it free
[11:01] <jrmy> i see
[11:02] <moetunes> a dude named Linus made his own unix - lin + nix
[11:02] <Sysi> just kernel
[11:02] <jrmy> !kernel
[11:02] <Sysi> and then they started to use it in gnu-os
[11:04] <moetunes> linux kernel to access the hardware plus opensource apps = where we are now
[11:05] <moetunes> chatting in irc for no cost :}
[11:05] <jrmy> is gnu in gnu a name?
[11:05] <jrmy> it says gnu's not unix
[11:06] <Sysi> gnu names ♥
[11:06] <jrmy> because that part confuses me
[11:06] <Sysi> gimp, gnu image manipulator
[11:06] <Sysi> gnu, gnu's not unix
[11:06] <jrmy> so gnu is basically a name
[11:06] <moetunes> in the open source world there are lots of self referencing acronyms - gnu is not unix
[11:06] <Sysi> wine, wine's not an emulator
[11:06] <moetunes> Gnu Is Not Unix
[11:07] <jrmy> wait wine isnt a emulator?
[11:07] <Sysi> yes
[11:07] <Sysi> as name says
[11:07] <jrmy> i totally dont understand wine then
[11:08] <jrmy> is unix easy to use liek windows?
[11:08] <jrmy> like*
[11:08] <jrmy> more user friendly in one sense
[11:08] <jrmy> and or not very complicated to use
[11:10] <moetunes> when you first used windows you had to learn how to use a mouse and install stuff - same in linux distros' - you need to learn a couple of things
[11:11] <moetunes> if you tried to use a mac you would need to learn some stuff
[11:12] <jrmy> then I'm thinking it wil take me a few years to get used to ubuntu
[11:12] <jrmy> it would probably be dumb to swtich to another distro at this point
[11:12] <jrmy> switch*
[11:13] <moetunes> depend on what you want to do - mostly it is just learning that apps are free and in the package manager and how to use the package manager
[11:14] <moetunes> in windows if you install a new app you have to learn it - nothing different here
[11:15] <jrmy> my main use for a computer is games and everyday web browsing
[11:16] <jrmy> like email checking and facebook
[11:16] <jrmy> the games part is lacking for my old and low end computer
[11:16] <jrmy> wine wont work with most of the old games ive tried
[11:16] <jrmy> or X crashes
[11:17] <jrmy> dont know what hardware problems i coudl have
[11:17] <jrmy> not my ram however since ive checked for errors
[11:18] <moetunes> that sounds like either the card can't do the game or you need a better graphics driver
[11:18] <jrmy> i have 8MB and ive been playing games at most that need this much
[11:18] <moetunes> for wine I would check the appdb to see if it is supported
[11:18] <moetunes> !appdb
[11:18] <jrmy> so i perhaps my graphics driver lacks
[11:19] <jrmy> apparently sin, red alert, and incoming are suppose to work
[11:19] <moetunes> at 8mb I don't think it would - old cards have good support unless they are sis afaik
[11:19] <jrmy> remind me what afaik means again
[11:19] <moetunes> as far as I know
[11:20] <jrmy> and sis?
[11:20] <moetunes> sis is a brand of video card - in terminal   lspci   will tell what you use
[11:21] <moetunes> it'll be near the end of what that command returns
[11:22] <jrmy> actually the end shows other stuff
[11:22] <jrmy> the first three talk about the graphics
[11:22] <moetunes> k
[11:22] <jrmy> unless host bridge is something else
[11:22] <moetunes> host bridge IS something else
[11:22] <jrmy> ok
[11:23] <jrmy> then yeah it says vga compatible controller and display controller
[11:23] <moetunes> the one with vga in it
[11:23] <moetunes> yep :]
[11:23] <jrmy> since i have a laptop i have both i assume
[11:24] <jrmy> which the 2 are obvious for there uses
[11:24] <moetunes> if you have somewhere to plug in an external monitor then yep
[11:24] <jrmy> right
[11:24] <jrmy> i have a parallel and a serial port too
[11:24] <jrmy> which i dont know what serial is used for
[11:25] <moetunes> parallel is printer port
[11:25] <jrmy> i know
[11:25] <jrmy> i said i dot know what serial is used for
[11:25] <jrmy> dont*
[11:25] <jrmy> i really wish i could boot with a usb device
[11:25] <moetunes> serial is for add on devices rarely used by most folk
[11:26] <jrmy> ok
[11:26] <moetunes> sounds like the hardware is too old for that
[11:26] <jrmy> is there any way to enable this?
[11:26] <jrmy> ive heard its dumb to flash a new bios
[11:26] <jrmy> i think one of my friends are knowledgeable enough to do so
[11:27] <moetunes> I have heard there is an app you can use on a floppy disk to help that but I know nothing about it
[11:27] <jrmy> well i have a floppy drive
[11:27] <jrmy> and a whole bunch of used floppy discs
[11:28] <jrmy> which are just sitting around doing nothing
[11:28] <jrmy> i dotn think i have enough of them to install a different os though
[11:28] <jrmy> since each are 1.44MB
[11:28] <jrmy> lol
[11:28] <moetunes> hehe
[11:30] <jrmy> i might have about 20 of them however
[11:31] <moetunes> they do rot quick ...
[11:31] <jrmy> 28.8MB lol
[11:31] <jrmy> well i dont know how old they are anyways
[11:32] <jrmy> which they are probably useless
[11:32] <jrmy> i wonder how big windows 98 is
[11:32] <moetunes> 256mb iirc
[11:33] <moetunes> or one install I did was
[11:34] <jrmy> yeah i wouldnt have enough space that way
[11:34] <jrmy> heh
[11:34] <jrmy> i'd need more like 200 floppies
[11:34] <jrmy> lol
[11:34] <moetunes> sounds like you don't have a cd drive?
[11:35] <jrmy> i do
[11:35] <jrmy> i just dont have discs
[11:35] <moetunes> ok :]
[11:35] <jrmy> if i had some cd's i could burn them with my desktop
[11:35] <jrmy> but yeah i only have dvd+r's
[11:35] <jrmy> which is useless to me
[11:38] <moetunes> there are other ways to install but they can be complicated
[11:38] <jrmy> ah
[11:38] <moetunes> !install
[11:40] <jrmy> !automate
[11:40] <jrmy> well if that floppy drive thing would work then i'd try that
[11:41] <jrmy> since my original plan was to try other distros not install them
[11:42] <moetunes> I've only heard about it in passing on irc - I don't have any floppy drives here at all
[11:42] <jrmy> well i can take a long journey with google i suppose
[11:43] <moetunes> I would recommend using   www.google.com/linux
[11:43] <moetunes> instead of just www.google.com
[11:44] <jrmy> that exists?
[11:44] <moetunes> yep
[11:44] <moetunes> mostly what I use
[11:45] <moetunes> has a penguin on it
[11:45] <jrmy> i just might replace my default search engine with that
[11:45] <moetunes> :]
[12:22] <mark76> I've figured out why Xfce/Xubuntu keeps crashing
[12:24] <mark76> It's Xfwm
[12:29] <mark76> Hey DBeets
[12:29] <DBeets> Hi
[12:29] <DBeets> I never did get that figured out. I just went with a new window.
[12:29] <mark76> Xfwm has been making my xfce session crash
[12:30] <Sysi> xfwm pretty much is xfce-session
[12:30] <mark76> I'm running openbox with xfce4-session, xfdesktop and xfce4-panel and it's working just fine
[12:31] <mark76> Apart from having to use the 3 finger salute to log out
[12:31] <mark76> Now all I have to do is find out why xfwm4 is misbehaing
[12:31] <mark76> misbehaving
[12:31] <mark76> I think you can only change tab names on a per session basis DBeets
[12:33] <mark76> If I run xfwm4 --replace the session will crash
[12:35] <DBeets> Yeah, you'd think there would be a command to at least open a new tab and run a command.
[12:35] <DBeets> Or can;t the shell interact that way?
[12:35] <jrmy> will it work if you do it with tty?
[12:35] <mark76> I was right
[12:36] <mark76> xfwm4 did crash the session
[12:36] <Sysi> mark76: try removing xfwm config
[12:36] <Sysi> some themes make xfwm crash
[12:36] <mark76> Is xfwm config in ~/.config?
[12:36] <Sysi> under there
[12:38] <mark76> I can't see it in the .config folder. Home?
[12:38] <Sysi> locate xfwm | grep home
[12:39] <mark76> There's a xfwm4 folder in the .config/xfce4 folder. But it's empty
[12:40] <mark76> I deleted it :/
[12:40] <mark76> BRB
[12:42] <mark76> Nope. That wasn't it
[12:44] <mark76> There's definitely no xfwm4 config file in my home directory
[12:45] <Sysi> did you try that locate
[12:45] <mark76> Yep
[12:45] <Sysi> interesting
[12:45] <mark76> It just lead me to the xfwm4 folder in the xfe4 folder in the .config folder
[12:45] <mark76> Which was empty
[12:48] <mark76> I've removed and reinstalled xfwm
[12:48] <mark76> BRB
[12:51] <mark76> Nope, Sysi. It doesn't even get to the desktop
[12:52] <jrmy> probably dumb if i give advise
[12:52] <Sysi> have you tried creating new user?
[12:52] <jrmy> since i barely know anything
[12:52] <mark76> Can I create a new user in another desktop environment?
[12:53] <Sysi> yes
[12:53] <mark76> What's the command?
[12:54] <Sysi> adduser
[12:54] <mark76> Oh that. Hang on
[12:54] <mark76> BRB
[12:55] <jrmy> moetunes: will this work for all distro's? http://www.pendrivelinux.com/use-a-floppy-to-boot-usb-pendrive-linux/
[12:57] <moetunes> jrmy:  not something I've tried but from a quivk read it does seem straight forward
[12:57] <jrmy> ok
[12:57] <jrmy> any idea what PDL is?
[12:57] <jrmy> !PDL
[12:57] <moetunes> I would keep that link open on another comp while trying tho - just for the troubleshooting stuff etc
[12:58] <jrmy> right
[12:58] <DBeets> This is going to out myself as a newb but, can you seach in a man page?
[12:58] <jrmy> or right it down on paper
[12:58] <Sysi> jrmy: why would you need that?
[12:58] <moetunes> jrmy:  pdl = pen drive linux
[12:58] <DBeets> s/seach/search
[12:58] <jrmy> Sysi: i cant boot from usb with my computer
[12:59] <Sysi> then you really don't need pdl?
[12:59] <jrmy> ok so i need to rename the volume's label?
[12:59] <Sysi> oh that was that hack
[12:59] <moetunes> DBeets:  I do   man appname | grep somethingIwant
[12:59] <jrmy> Sysi: ok then how else will i boot from usb?
[13:00] <Sysi> why do you need to?
[13:00] <Sysi> you can ofc try if that works
[13:00] <moetunes> Sysi:  it it about jrmy using a floppy to help him boot a usb
[13:00] <Mark76> Hello again Sysi
[13:00] <Mark76> I'm using a different user
[13:00] <jrmy> i want to try other os' and i want to install a different os on my desktop
[13:00] <Mark76> And everything is working fine
[13:01] <Sysi> jrmy: cd-rw?
[13:01] <jrmy> Sysi: i dont have any nor can i afford any
[13:01] <jrmy> im kinda jobless
[13:02] <jrmy> i have a perfectly capable 8GB flash drive
[13:02] <moetunes> working with what you have is a nice intellectual challenge :]
[13:02] <jrmy> why get anything more?
[13:02] <DBeets> moetunes: perfect thanks
[13:02] <Sysi> ..is there grub menu in installation discs
[13:03] <Sysi> tarball installation images are kinda rare afaik
[13:03] <jrmy> are you talking to me Sysi?
[13:03] <Sysi> i guess
[13:03] <jrmy> well i have no idea one way or another
[13:04] <jrmy> im not even all that sure what grub is anyways
[13:04] <jrmy> !grub
[13:06] <Mark76> How do I restore the power to use xfce/xubuntu session to myself Sysi?
[13:08] <Sysi> Mark76: you couls copy .config
[13:08] <Sysi> or removing it entrely might works
[13:08] <Mark76> What? All of it?
[13:09] <Sysi> the folder
[13:10] <Mark76> Okay...
[13:10] <Sysi> that will destroy some of your settings
[13:10] <Mark76> BRB
[13:10] <moetunes> there is a .config xfce
[13:10] <moetunes> there is a .config/xfce
[13:14] <jrmy> ok i have no idea how to get pdl
[13:15] <moetunes> from the link you gave earlier - http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-pendrive-linux-install-from-windows/
[13:15] <moetunes> it says - This tutorial assumes your using the Pendrive Linux version located HERE
[13:15] <moetunes> HERE is a link
[13:16] <moetunes> oohh it needs windows...
[13:16] <jrmy> i dont see anything about a linux installation
[13:17] <jrmy> yeah
[13:17] <jrmy> and from the looks of it pendrivelinux is an os
[13:17] <moetunes> http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
[13:18] <moetunes> Universal USB Installer is a Live Linux USB Creator that allows you to choose from a selection of Linux Distributions to put on your USB Flash Drive
[13:18] <moetunes> quote unquote :]
[13:19] <moetunes> sorry it needs windows too
[13:20] <moetunes> !unetbootin
[13:20] <moetunes> prob won't help with the floppy bit tho
[13:21] <jrmy> already have unetbootin
[13:23] <moetunes> here we go then - http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/   1/3 the way down
[13:24] <jrmy> already there
[13:24] <jrmy> lol
[13:24] <moetunes> heh
[13:24] <Sysi> grub2 can boot to iso images
[13:25] <Sysi> you could try that
[13:25] <jrmy> !grub2
[13:26] <jrmy> brb
[13:27] <jrmy> back
[13:28] <jrmy> well i already have the pc/bios version installed
[13:28] <jrmy> is there another version i'd need?
[13:29] <jrmy> im searching for it with the software center
[13:29] <Sysi> read the manual
[13:35] <jrmy> ok so i can boot from a iso on my harddrive with grub2
[13:35] <bazhang> yes
[13:36] <jrmy> so i guess all i need to do is figure out how to make it boot from an iso
[13:36] <bazhang> the grub2 links tell that
[13:39] <jrmy> i dont see where
[13:40] <jrmy> ive also been in the grub2 menu or whatever before
[13:40] <jrmy> ive done memory tests before
[13:40] <jrmy> i didnt know what it was though
[13:41] <jrmy> i thought it was called recovery mode or somethin
[13:42] <jrmy> how hard is it to have more then one linux distros installed?
[13:44] <jrmy> oh yeah i can use unetbootin to make the iso on the hdd
[13:44] <Sysi> not hard, you just need to configure grub
[13:45] <jrmy> ok
[13:47] <jrmy> ok all of the "configurng grub2" makes little to no sense
[13:47] <jrmy> are you sure the link tells me how?
[13:47] <Sysi> it should
[13:48] <jrmy> maybe i hould just use unetbootin
[13:48] <jrmy> should*
[13:48] <mark76> Well, I've got Xfce sorted out properly now
[13:48] <jrmy> good
[13:49] <jrmy> seems simplish to change the "splash" for grub
[13:50] <jrmy> but anything else i dont even begin to undertsand
[13:50] <jrmy> understand*
[13:51] <Adriasil> hello all.
[13:51] <mark76> Can we expect any new themes in Xubuntu 10.10?
[13:51] <mark76> Hello Adriasil
[13:52] <Sysi> default theme is new in 10.10
[13:52] <mark76> Damn I hate this empathy theme
[13:52] <mark76> Cool
[13:52] <mark76> Not that I don't like Albatross :p
[13:54] <Adriasil> I'm booting Knoppix now, to see if that works.
[13:54] <Adriasil> :D
[13:54] <Adriasil> all is going well so far.
[14:02] <jrmy> ok that didnt work
[14:03] <jrmy> when i tried boot /dev/sdb1 it said no kernal loaded
[14:04] <jrmy> in the grub command line
[14:10] <Adriasil> theoretically, how long should it take to start up?
[14:11] <charlie-tca> theoretically - 10 seconds or less
[14:11] <jrmy> i assume you arent talking to me
[14:11] <charlie-tca> reality - 1-2 minutes
[14:11] <Adriasil> no.
[14:11] <Adriasil> hmmm....
[14:11] <Adriasil> 15 mins= something's wrong.
[14:11] <jrmy> 1-2 minutes? sheesh
[14:11] <Adriasil> Gao~
[14:12] <jrmy> mine takes 20 seconds at most
[14:12] <Adriasil> mmkay.
[14:13] <Adriasil> if knoppix doesn't work it means I'm doing something wrong..........
[14:19] <jrmy> !SMM
[15:41] <mark76> Is there anywhere I can see a preview of the new look for Xubuntu Maverick?
[15:42] <likemindead> http://duckduckgo.com/?q=Xubuntu+10.10+screenshots
[15:42] <charlie-tca> !shimmer
[15:43] <likemindead> As usual, the default stuff is pretty lame.
[15:43] <mark76> I like the new theme
[15:43] <mark76> The previous one was a bit Goth :p
[15:48] <jrmy> eh i like 10.04 more
[15:48] <jrmy> so more then likely i wont upgrade
[15:49] <Sysi> i've never liked albatross, new one is cool but very blue
[15:49] <mark76> Black
[15:49] <jrmy> i like my desktop dark.. bugs me if it is bright and colorful
[15:50] <DBeets> dark is easier on the eys as well
[15:50] <jrmy> agreed
[15:50] <charlie-tca> reality check. Dark is harder for the eyes to distinguish. That's why paper is white
[15:50] <mark76> Indeed
[15:50] <Sysi> light is just boring, colourful irritating
[15:50] <jrmy> i can read black with white letters just fine
[15:51] <jrmy> preference either way
[15:52] <DBeets> indeed
[16:35] <autif> best things about 10.4 - it will be supported until 13.4
[16:36] <autif> so - use 10.10 for test machines, 10.4 for server/dev machines
[17:08] <AtariMoe> Quick question... will the final release of Xubuntu 10.10 ship on the 10th as well?
[17:08] <charlie-tca> yes
[17:08] <AtariMoe> thought so... thanks
[17:08] <charlie-tca> You are welcome
[17:11] <thismamacooks200> is there a chat room for help with gyachi improved?
[17:13] <jrmy> is there a site i can get xubuntu on disc for free?
[17:47] <jrmy> !xubuntucd
[17:47] <jrmy> !xubuntu-cd
[17:48] <jrmy> hmmm
[17:48] <Sysi> afaik canonical don't support sending xubuntu-discs
[17:48] <Sysi> ..propably official cd:s don't exist
[17:48] <charlie-tca> jrmy: free cd's are not available for Xubuntu
[17:49] <charlie-tca> However, there is a company that will ship one for cost
[17:49] <choi> how can i block certain ports using firehol? the manual is too complicated
[17:49] <charlie-tca> !xubuntu
[17:50] <jrmy> yeah shipping costs is all you pay for
[17:50] <jrmy> !xubuntu-channels
[17:51] <charlie-tca> I never used firehol
[17:52] <choi> no problem. i think few people know it because of its complexity.
[17:52] <charlie-tca> What about using UFW?
[17:52] <choi> i'm thinking of replacing it
[17:52] <choi> i need it for it to function with dansguardian
[17:53] <charlie-tca> It is pretty simple, but can do everything, I think
[17:53] <choi> yeah i used to use ufw. very simple config. but i need firehol for dansguardian an internet filter
[18:15] <thismamacooks200> Hi I am new and could use some help please
[18:15] <charlie-tca> !help
[18:17] <thismamacooks200> I have Linux and am using gyachi for voice chat but cannot get the sound to work...help plz
[18:18] <charlie-tca> !info gyachi
[18:19] <charlie-tca> Is the Linux you are using Xubuntu?
[18:19] <charlie-tca> and where did you install gyachi from?
[18:19] <thismamacooks200> I have that installed on my system
[18:20] <charlie-tca> How can I install it?
[18:20] <thismamacooks200> I installed gyachi from source
[18:21] <charlie-tca> Then it is possible not all the dependencies are installed. You would need to check where you got it from and see what packages are required for it to work.
[18:21] <thismamacooks200> http://sourceforge.net/projects/gyachi/
[18:21] <charlie-tca> Did you try using orca?
[18:22] <thismamacooks200> I really want voice chat and music to play
[18:22] <charlie-tca> Okay. I can't help with gyachi
[18:22] <thismamacooks200> tahnk you very much for trying
[18:22] <charlie-tca> music plays fine here with parole
[18:22] <charlie-tca> no, exaile, rather
[18:23] <charlie-tca> I don't have voice chat capablility
[18:23] <thismamacooks200> do either of those work with yahoo chat
[18:23]  * charlie-tca shrugs
[18:23] <charlie-tca> I don't know. I don't have chat
[18:23] <thismamacooks200> tyvm
[20:41] <zerothis2> my login screen shows only an icon and the name of my computer, shutdown options, time/date, and the universal access preferences icon; no users (but there are over ten of us).
[20:42] <charlie-tca> when did that start?
[23:12] <tarek_> hello people, i just have freshly installed xubuntu and have a problem with the resolution
[23:13] <tarek_> my nvidia card always gives me a low resolution, so i change it back to the desired resolution (which works) but after a new boot i get the old default resolution
[23:14] <tarek_> any idea y?
