[00:44] <Ammond> Just got Xubuntu loaded on a couple hosts. I'm confused about encrypting my home folder. A wizard comes up and tells me to click on the button to get my pass phrase and NOTHING happens. What's the trick??
[00:45] <Ammond> Even the command line seems to be wrong. I presume I really needed to sudo the command. Haven't tried that yet.
[00:51] <charlie-tca> !patience | Ammond
[00:51] <Ammond> Thnx!

[05:13] <BipolarMike> hello? I am a newb... anyone like to help me install Xubuntu?
[05:13] <BipolarMike> aw...
[05:32] <Misterangry> any suggestions for hanging at "Checking battery state" on live cd start?
[05:35] <moetunes> I would suggest doing the cd check
[05:35] <Misterangry> I did, and it turned out fine
[05:42] <moetunes> Misterangry:  I can't find anything on google about that sort of issue
[05:43] <moetunes> does it happen with another live cd?
[05:53] <ubuXubu> good morning xubuntu technicians.
[05:54] <Misterangry> moetunes: no
[05:55] <moetunes> Misterangry:  how old is the laptop?
[05:56] <Misterangry> that's the thing
[05:56] <Misterangry> it's not a laptop
[05:56] <moetunes> ohh
[05:57] <moetunes> prob why it hangs
[06:03] <Misterangry> so is xubuntu laptop exclusive?
[06:08] <moetunes> not at all - been in google again and found nothing like your issue
[06:12] <moetunes> I don't know why it would be looking for a battery at all Misterangry
[06:14] <moetunes> Misterangry:  what sort of hardware is in the comp?
[06:15] <Misterangry> intel p4, think it's an intel motherboard too
[06:16] <Misterangry> 2gb ram, nVidia card (I think.)
[06:16] <moetunes> should be no hassles at all with that stuff...
[06:17] <TheSheep> Misterangry: there is a number of kernel options you might want to try at startup
[06:17] <Misterangry> such as
[06:17] <ubuXubu> may i hear this problem
[06:17] <TheSheep> Misterangry: they are described in the help there
[06:22] <Misterangry> ubuXubu: Misterangry: any suggestions for hanging at "Checking battery state" on live cd start?
[06:22] <ubuXubu> hmmm
[06:23] <ubuXubu> doubt this is right but maybr change cmos battery if its old
[06:24] <TheSheep> Misterangry: I think that checking battery just happens to be the last thing displayed, it's not the thing that actually hangs
[06:24] <TheSheep> Misterangry: (x)ubuntu skips quite some messages
[06:24] <Misterangry> hmmph
[06:24] <Misterangry> how would I go about booting in to expert mode?
[06:25] <TheSheep> I guess you read the help at the boot screen, sorry I won't reboot now just to check for you
[06:25] <ubuXubu> does it hang but then does it let u run the os?
[06:25] <TheSheep> It's under F1
[06:27] <Misterangry> it just hangs
[06:28] <ubuXubu> so it never gets beyond that
[06:28] <Misterangry> nope
[06:28] <ubuXubu> if so i would suspect video issue
[06:29] <ubuXubu> is it a windows computer
[06:29] <Misterangry> nope
[06:29] <Misterangry> it runs Debian normally
[06:30] <ubuXubu> i wonder then if ubuntu cd would run live
[06:30] <Misterangry> yeah
[06:30] <ubuXubu> ok so if ubuntu runs live and xubuntu hangs at that stage i think there is a video issue in xfce with your hardware
[06:31] <ubuXubu> is it 1004 or above
[06:31] <Misterangry> 10.10
[06:31] <ubuXubu> ill bet 904 works
[06:32] <moetunes> looking for a battery wouldn't be a video issue afaik
[06:32] <ubuXubu> ill bet xubuntu 904 will run, i experienced something like this on a p4/nvidia desktop
[06:33] <ubuXubu> i know ...battery was 1st wild guess
[06:33] <ubuXubu> i think it video/xfce thing
[06:40] <ubuXubu> Misterangry, any chance th cd itself is corrupt, did you try it in another machine
[06:54] <Misterangry> not yet
[06:55] <Misterangry> and I actually don't have any machines without an nvidia card. lol
[06:56] <Misterangry> excluding the ppc laptop next to me, which wouldn't work for obvious reasons
[08:37] <xubuntu149> hey
[08:49] <xubuntu017> эй
[08:53] <Misterangry> it seems I got 10.04 working
[08:53] <moetunes> how did you get the cd booting Misterangry ?
[08:55] <Misterangry> burned a copy of 10.04, verified it and then started it normally
[08:55] <Misterangry> and yes, it is working
[08:57] <Amaterasu> helloo
[08:58] <Amaterasu> i recently tried xubuntu and i have question i'd to ask about it
[08:58] <Amaterasu> anyone there ?
[09:04] <TheSheep> wow, xubuntu is now used by japanese gods
[09:07] <moetunes> I am amazed at the breadth of your knowledge TheSheep :)
[09:07] <TheSheep> moetunes: telling that to someone with access to Internet is weird
[09:08] <moetunes> ohh you googled it ?
[09:08] <TheSheep> no, but I could have
[09:08] <moetunes> I had a feeling you didn't...
[09:35] <knome> !ask | Amaterasu
[09:35] <TheSheep> knome: yeah, we have it all explained already on #x-ot
[09:35] <knome> right
[09:36] <knome> i'll just continue with my usual matters then
[09:36] <TheSheep> :)
[13:26] <aladoinsano> Im trying to start xmodmap -e 'keycode 118 = Return' automatically on login, via rc.local, but it refuses to run. It does work since i can type exactly that in the terminal and then it works
[13:26] <aladoinsano> can anyone be of help?
[13:27] <moetunes> you can add it to the autostarted apps for your user
[13:28] <charlie-tca> cross-posted to #xfce at the same time
[13:31] <aladoinsano> yes i did add it to autostarted apps, but that didnt work either, trying out to put it .xinitrc now, lets see if that does the trick
