[00:10] <blue_anna> how do I get changes to the keyboard layouts stick?
[01:42] <MrEsterhouse> Hello everyone!
[01:42] <blue_anna> hey MrEsterhouse
[01:42] <blue_anna> do you know ..
[01:42] <blue_anna> how do I get changes to the keyboard layouts stick?
[01:43] <MrEsterhouse> Isn't the setting for that in the xorg setting?
[01:44] <blue_anna> I was using the panel plugin to quick/switch the language
[01:44] <MrEsterhouse> Ah...
[01:44] <blue_anna> but the keyboard model keeps reverting, and the keys to switch languages revert too
[01:44] <MrEsterhouse> I don't use that option
[01:45] <blue_anna> since I have an AltGr key, I can't press both alt keys to switch :P
[01:45] <blue_anna> because there-s only one
[01:45] <MrEsterhouse> heck I dont know how to set my keyboard model so I can use its features
[01:45] <blue_anna> ahh, there's the dash
[01:49] <MrEsterhouse> My question is, how do you change the setting for the splash that says xubuntu be for you get to the login.
[01:51] <MrEsterhouse> I have a LG 16:9 DVI monitor ever since I installed it that splash seems like it displays in 640x480
[01:52] <MrEsterhouse> don't be afraid to chime in people.
[01:59] <blue_anna> MrEsterhouse, Applications -> Settings -> Settings Manager -> Splash Screen .... it should be there
[02:00] <blue_anna> Session start -> Splash .. I was copy-pasting
[02:05] <RJ_F1> how can I change the login sound for Xubuntu 10.10?
[02:06] <MrEsterhouse> not this splash it is all black that just says xubuntu. Everything when you hit alt F2 to go back to command line all the text is low res
[02:07] <MrEsterhouse> As far as I know there is no login sound for xubuntu
[02:08] <MrEsterhouse> Im not sure how to enable it, I was told that it isn't an option that can be enabled.
[02:09] <RJ_F1> in the "login options" or whatever, there is a checkbox that says 'play login sound' and it is checked, but I have no way of changing it?
[02:10] <MrEsterhouse> Yes I seen that as well. I had asked about that awhile back.
[02:12] <MrEsterhouse> I don't think that it is completely integrated  in xubuntu.
[02:12] <RJ_F1> Alright, I guess I just gotta wait for someone to figure it out then.
[02:27] <MrEsterhouse> one thing I cant seem to get is my nvidia driver to load that I downloaded from there site
[02:27] <MrEsterhouse> when I run the file it tells me that it cant find the headers
[02:27] <MrEsterhouse> this happened after I went to 9.10
[02:28] <MrEsterhouse> Im upgrading to 10.10 as I type, hopfully I can get the driver installed
[04:00] <maitrey_> hi guys, I have recently purchased second hdd 500 gb seagate sata and it seems to be impossible to connect it in ubuntu (10.10). I've setup bios but I can run only one of those hddsks. It is not recognizing the second as slave. What to do? I guess jumper won't help?
[06:15] <Kara-No> Is there any way to reset Xfce settings without logging into Xfce?
[06:54] <Sysi> Kara-No: ctrl alt F5 "rm -rf .config/xfce4"
[06:56] <Sysi> i still don't like crossposting
[08:31] <ubuXubu> good morning to all who reside here in the remote binary jungle of Xubuntu
[08:37] <TheSheep> hi balsaq
[08:39] <ubuXubu> howdeedoo
[08:41] <muffinsz> hi
[11:46] <xubuntu670> gimpbox
[17:34] <sktx> anyone have a clue how to get the video working on xubuntu lucid? i get audio but no video, even after installing the restricted-extras package...
[17:35] <Sysi> what video you're watching, with dragon?
[17:36] <sktx> dragon? no, with vlc... and it's half the videos i watch.
[17:36] <sktx> i tried with totem too but that works less often than vlc
[17:37] <Sysi> oh wait, dragon was 10.10 problem :p
[18:03] <hagenZ> hi. how can i set other resolution of the screen? xrandr command doesnt help and there is no my resolution in the settings window
[18:09] <charlie-tca> hagenZ: maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution will help with that
[18:11] <hagenZ> charlie-tca, i have already read it, it didnt help
[18:12] <charlie-tca> you would need to create or modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart for it to take effect
[18:12] <charlie-tca> changes made in the file should override defaults
[18:16] <hagenZ> i see. there is no xorg.conf so i was misleaded
[18:17] <charlie-tca> That seems to be common. We don't often realize that just creating it will make X use it
[18:24] <hagenZ> which Identifier i must set? look it up somewhere?
[18:28] <charlie-tca> Somthing like "Subsection "Display" in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Setting%20resolution%20changes%20in%20xorg.conf
[18:28] <charlie-tca> Modes gives the different resolutions you want to be able to use
[18:35] <hagenZ> ok i'll check this out
[18:48] <fumanchu182> First time xubuntu user, giving it a switch from gnome, however I cannot find a way to disable the desktop switcher, i.e. set it to only one desktop so I can then remove the widget.
[18:48] <Sysi> middle click → remove workspace
[18:49] <fumanchu182> but I already love that i can have different wallpaper on each monitor as opposed to a gimp hacked wallpaper that spans both
[18:49] <fumanchu182> I middle click on the switcher and it does nada.
[18:49] <Sysi> on the desktop
[18:50] <Sysi> switcher is just switcher :)
[18:50] <fumanchu182> found it
[18:50] <fumanchu182> workspaces under xfce settings
[18:50] <Sysi> i'm not if that middle click action is enabled by default
[18:50] <fumanchu182> This is quite a neat desktop manager.
[18:51] <fumanchu182> It is simple but gives me everything I need for my development enviornment
[18:51] <fumanchu182> err environment
[18:53] <fumanchu182> I am quite impressed.
[18:54] <fumanchu182> I think I just found a new desktop manager of choice.
[18:54] <knome> fumanchu182, nice to hear.
[18:54] <knome> hey, kids! o/
[18:54] <Sysi> hey uncle knome! \o
[18:55] <knome> khihi
[18:55] <fumanchu182> With using this desktop manager you keep inline with all ubuntu upgrade release dates?
[18:56] <knome> fumanchu182, yup, xubuntu releases are parallel to ubuntu releases
[18:56] <fumanchu182> That's good.
[18:56] <knome> fumanchu182, and all the apps are updated in xubuntu as well, since xubuntu and ubuntu share the repositories
[19:00] <hagenZ> charlie-tca, i havent 1024x768, only 800x600 max
[19:00] <hagenZ> yesterday it was, before i installed wine and rebooted
[19:01] <charlie-tca> I don't anything about wine, but it sounds like it did something wrong
[19:02] <hagenZ> so i should uninstall wine or there are other variants
[19:04] <hagenZ> which port is fore ssl here?
[19:35] <rigved> hi everyone
[19:35] <rigved> can anyone tell me how close is xubuntu to ubuntu in terms of the look and the applications available
[19:36] <Sysi> all same application avalable, see screenshots for looks
[19:37] <charlie-tca> rigved: personnally, I don't think it looks like Gnome. As for applications, you can use all applications that Ubuntu uses.
[19:37] <charlie-tca> Of course, installing all the same applications means you do use the same resources too
[19:38] <rigved> Sysi: thanx
[19:38] <rigved> charlie-tca: thanx. just openoffice.org
[19:41] <Sysi> !xubuntu
