=== deejoe_ is now known as deejoe [03:10] how to set up HP Deskjet D1360 on ubuntu? [03:11] mR0: what have you tried so far? [03:12] and is this a network or direct attach printer? [03:13] I Downloaded hplip-3.10.9.run & install it. but I got this "Creating directory hplip-3.10.9 [03:13] Verifying archive integrity...Error in MD5 checksums: 8a62c60a7fb2e55894cdfcef65623029 is different from a3be994a5788a540f4a14a42fc6c401b" [03:13] dirrect printer [03:13] sounds like the download did not come down properly [03:14] if the MD5 hash is off I would try downloading it again [03:14] cprofitt: oke, I'll try again... [03:14] thanks for ur info.. [03:14] but have you tried adding it via System | Administration | Printing [03:14] The driver might already be there [03:14] yes, but no printer found [03:14] is the printer turned on and hooked in via USB? [03:15] yes [03:15] hmm... that is odd [03:15] It already turned on [03:15] it should detect it even if it does not have a driver [03:15] do you know how to open a terminal? [03:15] yes [03:15] then [03:16] ? [03:16] do the following command [03:16] oke [03:16] lsusb [03:16] and look for a device that would be your printer [03:16] yes I got it my deskjet [03:16] then? [03:17] so it is seeing the printer in the terminal... [03:17] ok... then I would try to download that file again [03:17] http://www.downloadatoz.com/driver/articles/how-to-install-hp-printer-driver-onto-ubuntu-10-10.html [03:17] yes it it show me my printer on Bus 005 [03:17] there is also an article there that might help [03:18] oke [03:18] hey MichealH [03:50] good night all [06:25] Hi can someone tell me how to install a .jar file I have downloaded?

[09:41] good morning team [09:41] hello [10:21] hallo [10:23] hallo [10:23] hi [10:24] haaai [11:55] morning all [12:50] heya guys can i turn my ubuntu into a nubuntu? === karthick1987 is now known as karthick87 [13:52] Hello all [13:56] does ubuntu desktop edition 10.10 run ell on a 1.7 pentuim M processor with 2gigs of ram or should i switch to a lighter desktop environment? [13:56] runs nicely, but if you have adventure spirits: why not to try something lighter [13:58] i liked the lxde environment but i had a problem connecting to the internet on startup [13:58] with wifi? [13:58] yes [13:58] so you're probably having Broadcom chipset [13:59] yep [13:59] that same problem comes with vanilla ubuntu too [14:01] but once i install the driver through the lan it works fine but on lxde the nm-applet doesn't start so i have to run it through the terminal and once the terminal is closed the connection goes away === yofel_ is now known as yofel [14:10] hello all [14:14] hello [14:15] hey karthick87 [14:16] cprofitt: hai :) hw are you?Searching you for a long time :) [14:17] I am ok -- at work right now.

I got pinged ages ago! [16:52] hello MichealH [16:53] Hey [17:11] Hi all :D [17:11] So, anybody know how to make a persistant ubuntu live thingy... everytime I boot the live disc here at work I have to set up the proxy again, open all the relevent sites and log in again... a schlep (also this PC is used by several people so I ahve to do this many times a night)... also USB boot isn't an option :/?? [17:12] nlsthzn_work: I have not heard of a persistent CD [17:12] just USB [17:13] I've always wondered if doing it on a cd-rw would work? [17:13] cprofitt: Was thinking it should be possible if it could right to the HDD (but that would defeat the purpose of a live CD) [17:19] why is usb boot not possible? [17:21] Cheri703: I am not sure, I have tried booting the system with USB but it didn't... everything in BIOS seems OK but still no luck (plus it is a HP from work so I can't mess with it too much) [17:21] hmm...ok [17:22] I have no idea if this is possible [17:22] but [17:23] if you could install virtual box or something on the work computer, could you store your ubuntu guest on an external hdd or usb drive? [17:25] Cheri703: Installing anything isn't an option, need admin rights etc... but thanks for the ideas, keep 'em coming ;) [17:25] hmm... [17:31] do you know the model number of the hp? and/or what do you see in the bios when you try to check on usb bootability? [17:31] some companies, with good cause, prohibit booting from USB [17:31] it might be best to ask IT about what you want to do [17:33] hmm...OR, use the UCK and create a custom iso? not sure what all is involved, I looked at it and it was over my head [17:47] drubin, did you have a mentor on the UBT at any point? [17:50] I did - but he's gone now paultag :( [17:51] hobgoblin, :( [17:51] hobgoblin, much love. Thanks for filling out my table, you rule [17:51] poor old tinivole [17:51] paultag: you're welcome - though I only did some of mine :) [17:52] hobgoblin, I'm worse then you -- I'm trying to parse the old wiki page [17:52] paultag: I am thinking there was another - but I forget who it was [17:52] mm, that'll happen [17:52] :) [17:52] it has ...

[18:26] :P [18:26] hi MichealH :) [18:27] just a short question: which ubuntu version are you using?(@all :)) [18:27] 10.10 [18:27] 10.10, too :) [18:28] 10.04 [18:28] wanted to stay with 10.04 but upgraded then, because I destroyed my old ubuntu xD [18:28] 10.10 [18:29] 10.4 here and 1010 on the pc [18:29] but the pc doesnt not work atm... [18:30] I tried to rewrite some files, and the style :P I accidentally deleted libstdc++ :P NOTHING worked xDD [18:30] I am running 10.10 on my main laptop, 10.04 on the kids computers (3), and will likely run a mix on my testing computers (2) [18:30] morri, whats wrong with your pc? [18:30] I did do f all and still something is wrong , it jsut stays blank(or rather black after pci details and the only thing that happens is that my num lock light switches on [18:31] well some time it jsut ceased to start [18:31] you upgraded? [18:31] or reinstalled? [18:31] i upgraded about 2 to 3 weeks before that [18:31] oh, so it came suddenly, or after an update? [18:31] suddenly [18:32] heh fresh 10.10 install, virtualbox fails to install [18:32] thats strange.. maybe something wrong with the hardware? [18:32] i was able to run it in safe mode sometimes after that but after i did a system error check it didnt work at all anymore [18:32] i can stilla ccess it over the rescue knoppix disc [18:32] BGL, I can help you with virtualbox :) [18:32] but I have no idea where to to start to find out whats wrong [18:32] i've ran vbox for a couple years now on nix and windows [18:33] morri: make a backup of your data and reinstall 10.10 :) [18:33] bgl: you want to run it on ubuntu? [18:33] hm i would have to install 10.4 as i updated directly to 10,.10 [18:34] morri: okay, but a fresh install of 10.10 is always cleaner and better :) [18:34] maybe i should saty with 10.4 though? the pc has a pentium 3 and 998 mhz and 512 mb ram [18:35] morri: that doesn't matter :P [18:35] or better: SHOULDN'T matter xD [18:35] well i thought i was reading one should have at least a pentium 4 for 10.10# [18:35] (today) [18:35] but for 10.04 too :P [18:36] or am I wrong? [18:36] well the minimum requirements were 3 i thinl [18:36] so i just put all my stuff and install new. well [18:37] morri: If everything worked well with 10.04, then reinstall it :P [18:37] anyway on a nother note, i have this laptop here which i have on wubi(no working disk drive ) and no usb boot) and i just reistalled it too and i can't remmeber how to tell the firefox to adhere to the system scheme [18:38] (concerning the font in the menu bar and the context ) [18:39] morri: can you give me an example? I don't understand what you want to do, sorry ;) [18:40] well ive got firefox here on wubi 10.04(laptop) and all my system has an size 9 taahome font [18:40] and you want to have the same font in firefox? [18:40] but the firefox has smething like sans 14 in its menu bar and the context menu [18:40] okay [18:41] just go to Edit->Preferences in firefox [18:41] its not the website display [18:41] just the menu? [18:41] yes [18:41] and the context menu and dialogue boxes [18:42] that didn't change with changing the appearance in ubuntu? [18:42] everything that does not belong to the website apart from the titlebar [18:42] no i had the problem before when i did it before but that was 3 or 4 months before in june or so [18:42] You changed the Application font in Ubuntu Appearance Preferences? [18:42] yes [18:43] the whole system such as this window and the panel etc are complying [18:43] that's strange :P [18:43] firefox should change too :) [18:44] I tried... and it immediately changed :P [18:44] changed: System->Preferences->Appearance->Fonts->Application font [18:44] file:///home/morri/Desktop/Screenshot.png [18:45] haha, that's not working ;) you should upload it [18:45] i tried :p [18:45] http://imageshack.us/ [18:45] i am doing int proper ly now :p [18:45] upload it to imageshack ;) [18:45] it worksd iwht msn like that xD [18:46] lol [18:46] you have to upload it, maybe msn immediately uploads the file ;) [18:46] yea it does [18:46] btw: I don't use msn xD [18:47] I'm not really a mic*osoft fan xD [18:47] now btt: please upload it to imageshack ;) [18:47] well I used it xD i dont have any microsoft apart from what the wubi is on xD [18:47] yea i am working on it [18:47] okay, fine that you are moving to linux :P [18:48] i have moved to linux in june :p [18:48] why do you have wubi then?

[18:56] whats* [18:56] Its the Windows installer for Ubuntu [18:56] yea, you don't have full rights in wubi, and you have only some gb ...

[19:11] yes xD [19:12] not much changes [19:12] xD [19:12] Just the name, I think :P [19:12] k, that's what I figured [19:12] even the icons stay the same :) [19:12] While you can often run Ubuntu on hardware of lower (and sometimes much lower) specification using a minimal install, performance will suffer. Most users (especially those new to Ubuntu) risk frustration if they ignore these suggestions.

[19:13] no, not really :P [19:14] once was light but is now kinda heavy imo [19:14] all comes down to personal preference [19:14] I used kubuntu ;) But I didn't like KDE xD [19:14] i tried wubikun=buntu but i refused to do anything since i couldnt find a synaptic or software center [19:14] and i didnt like the lower taskbar [19:14] me too xD [19:15] GNOME panels are buggy on 10.10 :o [19:15] hm [19:15] hmm [19:15] sometimes icons disappear on my panel xD [19:15] for that i have my panel recover file xD [19:15] you are buggy^^ [19:16] I have this script too, but it doesn't work anymore xD [19:16] anyway so you don't have solution for my pc not for my laptp... :p [19:16] paultag: yes Joeb454 [19:16] ?

[19:19] hmm [19:19] and i think there was something not working with that method anyway [19:20] no ive got it on my laptop [19:20] via wubi [19:20] I was reading http://fsmsh.com/3465 and it says "big Edubuntu deployments are based on X’s network transparency." What does that mean? Where can I find information on where Edubuntu has been officially deployed? [19:20] my pc has different problems [19:20] djs: Edubuntu is for schools :) that's all I can say about it xD [19:21] well its not more than ubuntu with school programmes isnt it? [19:21] it has a network :) [19:21] a special network [19:21] for teacher pcs, and so on ;) [19:21] nice [19:21] but you all have no idea if i cant try to make my ubuntu pc work again without wiping? [19:22]
