crawlerthat's good..just got my LiDE 200 scanner working with the latest sane build, but it scans 200% slower than it does in windows00:08
crawlerso, some canon scanners work, but not like they should00:08

crawler10.04 xubuntu & 9.04 ubuntu00:24
travis2009downloading 33 files00:25
crawleri would downgrade to 10.04 for long time support00:25
travis200910.04 had hardware issues for some reason00:25
crawleryou'll be good till like 201300:25
travis200910.10 doesnt00:25
crawlerahh i see00:25
travis2009i have another laptop, where 9.04, my network card wouldnt work correctly00:26
travis2009it would connect to my wireless network, then the signal would get worse and worse, then it wouldnt connect anymore until i restarted00:26
travis2009then that was  fixed in 9.1000:27
crawlerhahah that's really weird00:27

crawlertake it to the edge of a cliff and throw it like a frisbee00:34
crawlerthen drop a bomb on it00:34
travis2009thats much better00:37
crawleryea..oh another thing i thought of..try a new ff profile00:37
crawleri think you can make one with firefox -profile-manager00:38
travis2009that is the problem in #ubuntu no one pays attention to you00:38
crawlertrue00:38
crawler* firefox -ProfileManager00:38
travis2009it opened a new firefox window, but no profile manager00:40

=== soero_ohcysp is now known as psycho_oreos
RakkoI just upgraded to 10.10, but apparently I have a reference to a disk that no longer exists in my fstab. I'm on a screen that says to press S to skip mounting or press M for manual recovery, but neither one does anything. What's wrong here?06:14
RakkoI've been waiting for it to continue for several minutes now06:15
psycho_oreosupgrading is generally not a good idea.. what I'd probably do is use livecd/liveusb to edit the /etc/fstab myself06:30
ubuXubugood morning, does xubuntu offer xubi11:08
bazhangubuXubu, not that I know of11:08
bazhangeasy enough to remedy though once wubi is done, I'd imagine11:08
ubuXubuseems to be ubuntu only11:08
ubuXubui dont like that sudo stuff to change it11:09
ubuXubui just like to put it in there up front11:09
bazhangyep11:09
ubuXubuone shot11:09
bazhanglikely could purexfce it though11:09
ubuXubueach should have its own, wubi,kubi,lubu,xubi11:12
ubuXubulubi i meant11:13
siavashserverhi11:17
ubuXubuwelcome siavashserver11:18
siavashserverthanks11:19
siavashserverany ideas how to get the properties of multiple files/folders in the thunar? it seems confusing to me that 'properties' is disabled in right click menu11:19
siavashserveris it the way thunar is?11:19
ubuXubushoot im not in xubuntu right now11:23
ubuXububut its trimmed back for sure11:23
ubuXubui seem to recall being able to look in properties though11:24
siavashserverubuXubu, for multiple files selected?11:24
siavashserveror just for one folder/file?11:25
ubuXubui guess i only look at one at a time11:25
ubuXubunot sure wut u mean11:25
ubuXubui rescued an infected macine w/ xubu and i was looking at properties for hours11:26
ubuXubufile after file11:26
psycho_oreosinfected xubuntu machine?11:26
ubuXubuno11:26
siavashserverwhat im doing is : holding the left mouse button, draging to select a few files. when i'm right clicking, 'properties' is disbaled :(11:27
ubuXubui put an infected windows drive under a good xubu drive in my computer11:27
psycho_oreosahh11:27
ubuXubuthen i dragged the files from windows t oxubu and saved em11:28
ubuXubuhehe11:28
psycho_oreossiavashserver, best way is to probably put them into a directory and do right click on the directory with all the files11:28
ubuXubuim lost on this properties problem11:28
siavashserverwtf? :D11:28
siavashserverthat sounds crazy11:28
psycho_oreosits the same issue with my ancient copy of xubuntu (9.04) so its probably related to the use of thunar11:29
siavashserverpsycho_oreos, looks like its sth with thunar (just asked a few questions at #xfce)11:31
psycho_oreossiavashserver, exactly as I pointed :) read above11:31
siavashserveryup11:31
psycho_oreosanother way would be to use another file manager I suppose.. in my case I use pcmanfm (part of lxde or lubuntu) whenever thunar plays up11:31
siavashserverthen it should download the gnome dependencies to get them working, so why not gnome from beginning? :D11:32
siavashserverubuXubu, psycho_oreos, thanks for help11:33
psycho_oreossiavashserver, heh it might be issues with some backends that I suppose xfce still somewhat slightly depends on gnome11:35
siavashserverthats for panel widgets11:36
siavashserver(those dependencies)11:36
psycho_oreoswell I dunno then.. you may also want to look at it as probably the fact lies that the xfce developers probably forked their work off gnome11:37
ubuXubuall roads lead to.....gn home11:43
