[00:42] <Sivarts> Hi can anyone help with nvidia card? I connect a VGA monitor and DVI monitor to my video card and nvidia-settings recognizes fine, but if I connect a VGA monitor and a LCD TV with a DVI->HDMI cable I get no signal on TV and it doesn't recognize the monitor at all in nvidia-settings
[00:42] <Sivarts> it does show the VGA monitor fine though
[00:55] <raevol> Sivarts: this channel is generally completely dead, and i'm not sure many people here will know much about the nvidia drivers
[00:55] <raevol> you may have better luck in #ubuntu, or looking for an nvidia channel, or just googling
[00:57] <Sivarts> ok thanks, I did ask in #ubuntu just thought I'd ask here too since it is on xubuntu even though I'm sure it's all-variants
[01:07] <autif1> for several week now, my laptop is not able to run X. It is completely patched (apt-get update, upgrade) but after reboot it displays "Ubuntu" is running in low-graphics mode. Your screen, graphics card and input device settings could not detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself". How do I reconfigure X?
[01:09] <autif1> I have tried "dpkg-reconfigue xserver-xorg" from http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-how-to-reconfigure-x-windows-system-xorg-server/
[01:22] <autif1> progress - startx works fine - but when I reboot the laptop - it does not start X, it gives the error mentioned above and falls back to the shell
[01:22] <autif1> from where when I do startx - everything is fine
[01:22] <autif1> how do i fix this?

[05:50] <Balsaq> another peaceful morning in the remote binary jungle known as...Xubuntu!
[06:11] <Khedron> Balsaq: seems to be like that pretty often lol
[06:41] <Balsaq> its the nature of the place i guess...
[10:04] <akis> which version of openoffice is the appropriate for xubuntu 10.10 and for a notbook with only 256 ram?
[10:07] <Sysi> why not abiword and/or gnumeric?
[10:07] <Sysi> there aren't many versions of OOo in repositories
[10:13] <akis> sysi: i know both applications, but i am running OOo already under opensuse and is most familiar to me. is it a problem to install OOo under xubuntu?
[10:15] <Sysi> no
[10:15] <Sysi> just install
[10:19] <akis> does skype runs under xubuntu without any issues or any other problem. does anyone know?
[10:20] <Sysi> should
[10:20] <Sysi> everything should work equally on any *buntu
[10:21] <akis> i a asking because under opensuse skype cannot find the mic
[10:22] <Sysi> that should be fixable, i personally don't know about mics or skype
[10:24] <akis> ok. thanks. one more question. is there any chance or possibility for xubuntu to find and install the appropriate driver for the internal modem of my notebook to send and recieve faxes?
[10:25] <Sysi> it might be possible but propably not very easy
[10:28] <akis> i c. the same with opensuse. almost impossible. do you think that 1,5 ghz proccecor and 256 ram is enough to run fast xubuntu?
[10:30] <Sysi> not too much ram, but it should work
[10:33] <akis> i don't think so because i just read a report about my question (http://www.backports.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1267443&page=4). Any way thank you for your advises.
[10:34] <Sysi> np
[11:53] <WolfDogDesigns> Hey all. Is there a GUI tool for display config? Im using laptop with ATI graphics. .. Rather not mess around for an hour with Xorg.conf to get a second monitor working
[15:02] <Mark76> Why does MPD have to be so devilishly complicated?
[15:03] <Sysi> it's function isn't to be easy for basic use? how about moc
[15:04] <Mark76> Does the Xfce panel mpd plugin work with MOC?
[15:07] <Sysi> oh, you want *that*
[15:07] <Sysi> don't all players offer icon in notification area for controlling?
[15:08] <Sysi> or idk what's that plugin like
[15:15] <Mark76> It's impossible to get mpd or an mpd client to see your music folder
[15:15] <Sysi> i tried it, wasn't impossible but not easy either
[15:16] <Sysi> manpage?
[15:16] <Mark76> I've edited mpd.conf
[15:17] <Mark76> It knows where my music folder is. It just refuses to acknowledge the fact by actually opening it
[15:17] <Sysi> i think you need to do something for library
[15:18] <Mark76> Update?
[15:18] <Sysi> not quite sure..
[15:18] <Sysi> i created three files for some confs and library when i tried it
[15:20] <Mark76> What's the command to start the daemon?
[15:20] <Sysi> mpd
[15:21] <Mark76> log: problem opening log file "/var/log/mpd/mpd.log" (config line 37) for writing
[15:21] <Mark76> Aborted
[15:21] <Mark76> Must be a bug
[15:22] <Sysi> what on line no 37 on config?
[15:22] <Sysi> *number 37
[15:23] <Mark76> log_file			"/var/log/mpd/mpd.log"
[15:25] <Sysi> create .mpd.log in your home folder and set that as log
[15:25] <Sysi> if you run it as yourself, it can't write to /var/
[15:25] <Sysi> sorry, need to go →
[15:25] <Mark76> Ah
