| johnny77 | I added a submenu to the applications menu. It works, but the icons for the submenu are not appearing. Any ideas? | 00:57 |
| johnny77 | When I login, in the sessions menu, I have a choice for XFCE and Xubunut. What is the difference? | 00:59 |
| charlie-tca | johnny77: the difference is the customizations done for Xubuntu. | 01:00 |
| johnny77 | charlie-tca: Customizations I did? Or was made to XFCE as it was packaged into Xubuntu? | 01:02 |
| charlie-tca | customizations the Xubuntu Development Team does | 01:03 |
| charlie-tca | You can try each session to see what it looks like. | 01:04 |

| xGrind | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/652444 | 01:54 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 652444 in gnome-media (Ubuntu) "C-Media USB Headphones no longer work in 10.10 / gnome-volume-control crash" [Medium,Invalid] | 01:54 |
| charlie-tca | yes, that is closed. Are you having an issue similar to that? | 01:58 |
| xGrind | charlie-tca; me? | 01:59 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 01:59 |
| xGrind | yes. | 01:59 |
| charlie-tca | xGrind: yup | 01:59 |
| xGrind | I went back to 10.04 | 02:00 |
| charlie-tca | So... it is no longer valid for you? | 02:01 |
| charlie-tca | That report is formatted in a way that is very difficult for developers to read. That's why we ask for the new report | 02:01 |
| xGrind | the sound is bad. arrives to crash the system | 02:02 |
| charlie-tca | Did you file the report like I asked earlier? | 02:02 |
| xGrind | yes | 02:03 |
| charlie-tca | Great! Maybe we can get it fixed then. | 02:03 |
| xGrind | I read that kill pulseaudio and restart it solves the problem | 02:04 |
| charlie-tca | Sometimes we have to compare many reports side-by-side to find the actual issue. It may turn out to be a single line of code causing the problem. | 02:06 |
| xGrind | charlie-tca; and if I remove the pulseaudio? | 02:26 |
| === e9dek304ks03d is now known as m00se | ||
| charlie-tca | pulseaudio is a sound server. It allows more than one input to the sound card at a time if needed. | 02:49 |
| charlie-tca | Example, in Virtualbox installs, I can have sound from both the host and the guest at the same time using pulse audio | 02:49 |
| charlie-tca | If I don't use pulseaudio, I can have sound from either the host or the guest, but not both | 02:50 |
| charlie-tca | Removing it will simply change the controls to alsa instead of pulse audio. It is a valid workaround for some issues | 02:51 |
| xGrind | but | 02:53 |
| charlie-tca | ?? | 02:53 |
| charlie-tca | Try removing it. It is easy to reinstall | 02:53 |
| xGrind | and if installand if I remove and install the pulseaudio mixer again? | 02:54 |
| xGrind | Ouvir | 02:54 |
| xGrind | Ler foneticamente | 02:54 |
| xGrind | and if I remove and install the pulseaudio mixer again?* | 02:54 |
| charlie-tca | If you don't need it, it could work | 02:54 |
| charlie-tca | The other one that sometimes works is to reinstall "alsa-base" or "alsa-utils" | 02:55 |
| xGrind | ok | 02:56 |
| charlie-tca | I am trying to pin down another bug now, involving sound disappearing completely. | 02:56 |
| xGrind | you are programming team of xubuntu? | 02:57 |
| charlie-tca | no, I don't program | 02:57 |
| charlie-tca | I am the bug triage guy and the testing guy | 02:57 |
| charlie-tca | I also triage the accessibility bugs, kernel bugs, and test accessibility | 02:58 |
| charlie-tca | xGrind: I pretty much look at every bug filed against Xubuntu, and get to help a user once in a while | 03:03 |
| xGrind | i tI help to translate the xfce | 03:04 |
| xGrind | =] | 03:04 |
| xGrind | i help to translate the xfce | 03:04 |
| charlie-tca | Great! I admire the translators a lot | 03:04 |
| xGrind | \o | 03:04 |
| charlie-tca | It is very hard to be able to do translations | 03:04 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| charlie-tca | Well, that's it tonight. Going to bed now. | 03:19 |
| xGrind | charlie-tca; good night | 03:24 |

| Kenran | hi | 08:08 |
| Kenran | I'm having a problem with my xubuntu which I installed yesterday | 08:08 |
| Kenran | I use xubuntu dually to Win7 | 08:09 |
| Kenran | and yesterday evening, everything still worked fine. when restarting, I could choose what OS to boot | 08:10 |
| Kenran | but right now I started my computer, and I just got a GRUB error | 08:10 |
| Kenran | everything I saw then was a prompt where I didn't know what to type | 08:13 |
| moetunes | !grub2 | 08:14 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 08:14 |
| Kenran | hm okay, I'm gonna try this, thank you | 08:14 |

| delirus | is anyone else having a problem with the buggy beta nvidia drivers? | 16:59 |
| moetunes | lots of ppl are apparently | 17:00 |
| delirus | :\ | 17:01 |
| delirus | ah, I suppose that means it'll be fixed soon then | 17:02 |
| moetunes | "could" be - nvidia make no money from it tho | 17:02 |
| delirus | could be that it's clearly marked "beta" and shouldn't have been included in ubuntu? :\ | 17:03 |
| moetunes | aren't all there linux drivers betas... | 17:04 |
| moetunes | *their | 17:04 |
| delirus | there are plenty of stable nvidia drivers to choose from | 17:12 |
| moetunes | it seems to work for most folk going back the opensource drivers when the nvidia ones don't work | 17:13 |
| Sysi | there's no 3D acceleration but otherly no problems with nouveau | 17:14 |
| Sysi | even dualhead works great | 17:14 |
| delirus | erm | 17:16 |
| delirus | yeah.... but what if one actually got their nvidia cards sothey could... y'know... use 'em for 3D? :\ | 17:16 |
| Sysi | if you got old nvidia, nvidia don't want that you use it | 17:18 |
| delirus | ? | 17:18 |
| Sysi | downside of propietary | 17:19 |
| Sysi | business | 17:19 |
| delirus | never had a problem with (stable) nvidia drivers here | 17:19 |
| Sysi | i had | 17:19 |
| Sysi | i think i reinstalled my system about three times for that | 17:20 |
| Sysi | fourth time was success, on kubuntu | 17:20 |
| Sysi | now i would like to update but i really don't dare | 17:20 |
| Sysi | (first time it happened i fixed it on more linux way but couldn't now find solution) | 17:21 |

| factran | the interface wifi0 is up, | 19:22 |
| factran | network manager doent'connect : it stay gree, trying to connect. | 19:23 |
| factran | the passwords are corret | 19:23 |
| factran | Have you an idea ? | 19:23 |
| likemindead | You can see the network you want to connect to? | 19:24 |
| factran | no, i have to pass throught "connect to an invisble network" | 19:24 |
| factran | that is strange. | 19:24 |
| likemindead | Is it a hidden network? | 19:25 |
| factran | no | 19:25 |
| factran | sudo iwlist scan says "wifi0 : no scan result" | 19:25 |
| likemindead | !wireless | 19:25 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 19:25 |
| factran | thks | 19:25 |
| factran | arf. It works sudenly and I don't know why :/ | 19:31 |
| likemindead | Hmm... You might try using Wicd as an alternative. | 19:33 |
| likemindead | !wicd | 19:33 |
| likemindead | http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ | 19:33 |
| factran | while i was updating, i saw taht my pc was completely out of date. I think I should upgrade | 19:37 |
| mark76 | Is it a Pentium III? | 19:38 |
| charlie-tca | Update before upgrading , please. It can mess things up pretty bad trying to update old packages | 19:43 |
| charlie-tca | rather trying to upgrade old packages | 19:43 |
| rikmor18 | how do i clear a bios password on an HP dc7100? it doesn't have the jumper cable on the cmos/password terminal. i can't load a live cd because the bootpath looks in the hard drive first, and I can't change it without a bios password. | 21:26 |
| delirus_ | any clean way to get the nvidia drivers that came with 10.04, into 10.10? | 21:27 |
| Sysi | reinstall them? | 21:27 |
| delirus_ | erm | 21:27 |
| Sysi | rikmor18: take bios battery off for a moment | 21:27 |
| delirus_ | if I reinstall them, then I'll still have the ones from 10.10 | 21:27 |
| Sysi | i guess there should be same drivers available | 21:27 |
| delirus_ | the ones provided with 10.10 are buggy to the point of being criminal | 21:28 |
| Sysi | different version? | 21:28 |
| rikmor18 | sysi: for how long? and would it matter if that cmos/password jumper isnt installed? in other words, do i need that jumper o nthere for the computer to run properly? | 21:28 |
| delirus_ | ooooh yeah | 21:28 |
| delirus_ | a version that I read cases permanent damage to graphics cards :p | 21:28 |
| delirus_ | I was shocked when I saw the version number | 21:28 |
| Sysi | rikmor18: i know nothing about jumpers, not very long | 21:28 |
| rikmor18 | not very long? | 21:29 |
| rikmor18 | oh the battery. got it. | 21:29 |
| rikmor18 | I'll try that. thanks. | 21:29 |
| sinisterstuf | I installed SLIM now my computer doesn't start anymore, what can I do? | 21:49 |
| likemindead | It doesn't start at all? | 21:50 |
| sinisterstuf | well it does | 21:50 |
| sinisterstuf | but it seems to be frozen | 21:50 |
| sinisterstuf | there is a black screen with a white 'underline' cursor which usually flashes until the login screen loads | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | it isn' flashing, it just does nothing | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | I tried rebooting twice | 21:51 |
| likemindead | You removed GDM and installed SLiM? | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | and I've left it like that for 5 hours no still no change | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | GDM is not removed, it told me I can have 2 lopgin managers installed but only once can work at once so I selected SLIM | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | GDM is still there | 21:51 |
| sinisterstuf | just isn't used | 21:52 |
| sinisterstuf | *login managers | 21:52 |
| likemindead | Can you Alt-Ctrl-F2 to get a CLI login? | 21:53 |
| sinisterstuf | nope | 21:53 |
| likemindead | You might read up on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery ... | 21:54 |
| sinisterstuf | hehe thanks! | 21:55 |
| sinisterstuf | I just pressed Ctrl+Alt+Backspace and that seems to have done something | 21:56 |
| sinisterstuf | now I can Ctrl+Alt+F2 | 21:56 |
| sinisterstuf | very strange | 21:56 |
| sinisterstuf | fixed it by reconfiguring to use gdm, shame that slim doesn't work | 22:10 |
| mlsmith | My laptop screen doesn't turn off when I shut the lid but I do have it set up to do that. Any thoughts? It's set to turn the display off after 15 minutes but I haven't seen that happen either. | 23:30 |
| mlsmith | Sorry if somebody answered me on Sunday when I asked this the first time..my Internet was acting wonky. | 23:30 |
