[10:58] Does anybody know when there will be an ARM-release of Xubuntu? [11:00] when ubuntu want's to support it, if yet doesn't [11:04] afaik, 80% of ubuntu packages are ported to ARM already... [13:17] hi [13:17] how to mount shared folders in xubuntu ? [13:18] !samba [13:18] iTruc: depends on the type of those shared folders. [13:18] Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [13:20] why windows ? [13:20] :)à [13:20] :) [13:20] perhaps you would then expand and tell us what you are trying to do? [13:22] to connect and mount a shared folder with VMware (yes it's a virtual machine) [13:22] so how to ? [13:23] I have no idea about VMware. It isn't supported in Xubuntu as far as I know [13:38] iTruc: vmware uses smb shares [13:39] so look in the vmware help what ip addres and what share name to use, and mount it like a samba share [14:01] Hello, I wonder if anyone can help with an audio problem I am having. Sound playback is crackly at best (sometimes just a buzz when I change settings in Mixer). The computer is an IBM Thinkpad T-22. Soundblaster Pro soundcard I believe. [14:01] Oh yes, and it's Xubuntu 10.04 LTS [14:05] Nobody has any ideas? [14:15] !audio [14:15] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [14:17] Thanks, I'll check it out, leoquant . I should also add that I have no audio issues using DSL on the same machine. [14:20] DSL= damn small linix Deddly ? [14:20] ix=ux [14:21] i have used it with OSS [14:22] (which is open sound system) [14:22] leoquant: Yes, that's the one. [14:22] but please check the wiki first Deddly [14:22] leoquant: I'm reading it now but so far it seems to be adressing sound not working at all [14:25] leoquant: I can't see anything there that seems to relate to my problem. You think OSS could help? [14:25] Deddly, i am not a sound specialist , maybe someone else in this support channel [14:25] stay tuned [14:26] leoquant: OK, thanks for the help in any case. [14:29] [14:38] brot: iTruc: vmware uses smb shares <<--- ok thanks ;) [14:29] charlie-tca: know if someone ask the same question you know. :) [14:43] in the ubuntu software liv [14:43] library [14:44] what do i need to choose for a samba client , [14:44] ?* [14:44] :) [15:02] !smb [15:02] Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [15:02] Might be able to use gigolo too [16:19] can anyone assist me in making my onboard nic and USB ports work please? "lsusn" shows nothing even with a USB drive connected [16:19] "lsusb" even [16:24] what does lspci show for network card? [16:24] it only shows the nic thats I have put into the PCI slot [16:25] oh wait [16:25] Maybe you have to turn the onboard nic and the usb ports on in bios [16:25] no it does show the onboard I think [16:25] "00:14.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82557/8/9/0/1 Ethernet Pro 100 (rev 08)" [16:26] but I am unsure if thats the card its showing twice [16:26] as everything else is VIA [16:26] Is that a wired and wireless both capable card, perhaps? [16:26] nope, as there is no wireless [16:26] 10.04 and 10.10 should have detected the card [16:28] how can I find out for certain? [16:29] probably plug the ethernet cable into it, remove the slot card, and restart the computer? Have you tried that? [16:30] When you right click the network manager in the top panel, does it show eth0 and eth1? [16:31] well when I first installed the system I had the cable plugged into the onboard however, when the install was complete I had no networking [16:31] no just eth0 [16:32] Does the pci slot override the onboard? [16:32] no it shouldnt [16:32] thats only the case with graphics cards I believe [16:33] it did on older dell laptops [16:33] this is not a laptop [16:34] need a reboot hang on please [16:37] I can only see eth0 :( [16:38] I am running 10.10 [16:39] lspci showed three ethernet controllers? or jsut the intel Pro 100 ? [16:39] s/jsut/just [16:39] just the install pro 100 [16:39] intel* [16:39] Then the onboard is not showing up at all [16:39] it would seem not [16:39] but it is enabled [16:40] as when I connect a cable it lights up [16:40] that pro100 must be the PCI card [16:40] yes [16:40] so howcome I cant see the onboard one or anything for USB? [16:41] I don't know, unless there is a bios setting to turn them off/on [16:41] it is defo enabled in the bios [16:41] i will power down and double check just to be 100% [16:42] I am at a loss, maybe someone with more knowledge will come along with more answers [16:42] ill be back in 5mins [16:45] charlie-tca: I am fool, they was both disabled in the bios, I am just glad that I took the time to double check [16:46] but thank the load its now working :D [16:46] thank you for your help [16:47] You are welcome [16:47] Glad you found it [16:47] this channel is great I must say [16:47] anyone needing help should come here first [16:47] ;) [16:47] Thank you [16:48] I have lots of things to get working, but I dont wish to annoy you with lots of questions [16:48] As long as you are patient, it is okay to keep asking for help [16:48] Any of else will answer if we think we can help [16:49] I am a newbie, but I have managed to make most things work, however, some of the finer detail stuff I cant workout [16:49] I know that feeling [16:49] I off to a meeting now [16:49] chow for now :) [16:49] ty [16:50] on Bindows I used Skype-Mate alongside Skype in order to use my VOIP phone work with Skype, however, on ubuntu I can install Skype without a problem, but there doesnt appear to be a skype-mate for ubuntu [16:50] is there anyway I can use my USB telbox on ubuntu with skype? [16:51] !voip [16:51] VoIP is Voice over IP. The default VoIP client for Ubuntu is !Ekiga. There is also an xmpp voice component in !Empathy. Kubuntu Clients include Kphone and Twinkle. Proprietary Clients include !Skype and Gizmo5. VoIP server applications include Asterisk and Yate ( both in repositories ), FreePBX, and SipX. [16:51] USB telbox is a simple PSTN to USB converter, which converters any PTSN phone to a USB VOIP phone [16:52] Skype is easy, however, a Ubuntu equivalent of Skype-Mate is the problem [16:53] ubuntu skype-mate [16:53] is there one of those? [16:54] apparently so [16:56] sudo apt-get install skype skypemate [16:56] Package skype is not available, but is referred to by another package. [16:59] Try ekiga instead [16:59] skype works, ekiga is supposed to be similar to skypemate [16:59] is there a kinda skypemate for that or something alike that will allow my VOIP phone to work? [17:00] aye ok [17:00] let me try that [17:02] nice "Need to get 37.5MB of archives" lol [17:10] can I register my nick on here so I can keep it permenately? [17:10] !register [17:10] Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode [17:11] well! [17:12] ty ill read and reg [17:12] You are welcome [17:16] ty charlie-tca I am now registered I believe [17:17] Great! [17:18] I will frequent this channel and contrib where possible [17:19] We welcome any help here. [17:20] :) [17:20] its been years since I used IRC properly [17:21] although I used to little else lol [17:21] It will come back. It just takes time [17:21] it all seems fimilar once someone points me in the right direction [17:21] heh, we can do that [17:21] I couldnt even workout how to join a channel lol [17:21] "/join" seemed too simple to forget once I worked it out hahaha [17:22] +1 [17:22] how many bosses so to speak are there on this channel? [17:22] There are usually three or four channel ops around. [17:23] sounds good [17:23] I dont like there being too many tbh [17:23] We try to let it be self-policing, as much as possible [17:23] thats a very good way of working IMHO [17:24] god only know what network/channel I used to use, but it has been maybe 5yrs :P [17:26] How would I go about setting my default browser without using the xfce settings manager? [17:26] I'm having trouble getting chrome set as default [17:26] Cant you do that within the browsers preferences? [17:26] I am sure thats how I did it [17:27] well when I start chrome it asks to be set as default and when I say yes it apparently doesn't take [17:28] try doing it within the preferences [17:28] I tried setting it in the settings manager but that doesn't take either [17:28] see if that makes a difference [17:28] could remove the other browser? [17:29] The thing is the other browser isn't installed. I copied my /user folder from another machine and now it wants to use chromium [17:30] hmmm [17:30] You can't use xfce settings manager? [17:30] possibly remove the "chromium" reference from the said folder, otherwise I am unsure but someone will help [17:31] charlie-tca: no, I tried manually entering /usr/bin/google-chrome in the preferred applications setting but it doesn't take [17:32] check in ~/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml for anything that might be setting it? [17:34] Also look in ~/.cache maybe? just guessing, but those two files control most of the settings [18:15] I have installed ekiga in order to try and make my VOIP phone work,, Ekiga does seem to work fine and it does detect my phone, however, its not the skype client I was expecting? [18:19] reading forums suggests that Ubuntu does not support VOIP phones too well if at all, I really hope this is not the case [18:19] I don't know. I don't use one [18:20] its a must for me [18:20] skype works fine [18:23] hows about a touchscreen on Ubuntu? [18:24] MorphixNW woooo... wacom? [18:24] * dr4c4n droolz... [18:24] dt4cn: excuse me? [18:24] you said hows about a touchscreen on Ubuntu... imagine running ubuntu on the new wacom touchscreen [18:25] I was just dreaming [18:25] :) [18:25] hahaha :) [18:25] well the touch seems to be recognised, however, it badly needs calibrating [18:25] is there a package to do this? [18:25] MorphixNW: calibration of touch screen package, none that I know of that does it automatically [18:25] one sec.. I'll check my sources.. [18:25] manually? [18:26] ts_calibrate? [18:27] do i need to install that? [18:27] or elotouchscreen [18:27] I would assume so, you can try them out [18:27] the other one I've found with rudimentary skillz [18:27] E: Unable to locate package ts_calibrate [18:27] E: Unable to locate package ts_calibrate [18:28] is evtouch_current [18:28] E: Unable to locate package elotouchscreen [18:28] http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/ts_calibrate.1.html [18:28] apt-get install evtouch* worked [18:29] :) [18:29] I just searched the forums, and rudimentary google search [18:29] so what is this touchscreen that you're calibrating? [18:29] is it a wacom? [18:29] I <3 the new wacom's [18:29] gah.. /me droolz [18:29] god knows, its branded RichPOS [18:29] oh now.. I'm dreaming again [18:29] FEC [18:30] RichPOS FEC - ooh a part of a Point of sale system? [18:30] now that's kewl stuff.. [18:30] it was yes [18:30] wha.. cool [18:30] would be if it would work lol [18:30] works fine on Bindows [18:30] lol [18:30] windoze... [18:30] Microsucks yeah [18:30] oh all hail the proprietary drivers.. [18:31] the drivers are working on here I think [18:31] just off calibration [18:31] excuse me a moment, while I record all the customers debit and credit card numbers [18:31] lol [18:31] sweet :) [18:31] ;) [18:31] I install that evtouch [18:31] but no idea how to use it lol [18:31] lol [18:31] nothing in the apps menu [18:31] man evtouch [18:31] cmd line? [18:31] perhaps [18:32] no man entry [18:32] evtouch: command not found [18:32] crudites [18:32] one sec [18:32] ? [18:32] ok [18:33] searching for stuff is fun on the train [18:33] haha something to do at least [18:33] except I'm sharing all my bandwidth with all of these other people running windoze [18:33] and os X [18:33] it's fun to see what everyone has in their shared folder [18:33] for the first half hour [18:33] then it's kinda boring [18:34] still doing the search one sec [18:34] lmfao loving it mate [18:34] hi, yesterday i moved the default panel from the top of the screen to the bottom, today when i logged on the panel is still at the bottom, but the applications, places etc menus have gone!! how do i get them back??? [18:34] Add them using "add to panel" [18:35] the menu will be named xfce menu, but is the same as applications [18:35] MorphixNW: http://www.nextabyte.com/support/touchscreen/Touchscreen_HowTo.pdf ?? perhaps this might help [18:35] oops 404 one sec. [18:35] ty let me try that [18:35] oh no [18:35] http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-447535.html [18:35] ty [18:36] there's an sh script on there.. [18:36] also touchkit? for linux? [18:36] 404 on the sh script [18:37] http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/mandriva-linux/86066-touchscreen-calibration.html [18:37] charlie-tca: thx thats what i was looking for, altho like u say its got a different name, also need to find the 'places' menu [18:37] right-click the word xfce, left-click properties and change the name to Applications [18:38] charlie-tca: yeh, just worked that out, cheers tho :) [18:38] places is the same thing, add to panel, places [18:39] MorphixNW: any luck? [18:39] MorphixNW: also there has to be some documentation on that first thing you downloaded and installed somewhere.. ubuntu forums is a good spot, you can also try googling the name of the package too :D [18:40] I'm having an audio problem. Sound playback is crackly, popping at best (sometimes just a buzz when I change settings in Mixer). The computer is an IBM Thinkpad T-22. Xubuntu 10.04 LTS. DSL works fine though. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? [18:42] phone call mate hang on [18:43] MorphixNW: np [18:43] cant seem to get them to move to left side of panel even tho i have it set there :/ [18:45] add a spacer or separater to the panel [18:46] Hi, why the UNlock button does not work in my Xubuntu 9.10? [18:47] you have an Unlock button? [18:47] eaglewatch: what's that? [18:47] I want one [18:47] thx, but i think it was because i had them set to fixed position ;/ [18:48] dr4c4n, if i try to change the date for example I have to unlock it... [18:48] ok? [18:49] eaglewatch: ah, so this unlock button was added when you upgraded? or it is just there? I've never seen an unlock button [18:50] eaglewatch: you mean in system settings? [18:50] eaglewatch: how exactly it 'doesn't work'? [18:50] dr4c4n, yes... in the system setting [18:50] eaglewatch: any error message? [18:50] dr4c4n, if I click--- NO ACTION :( [18:50] charlie-tca: thx for the help, still not QUITE right, gonna close xchat a min... [18:50] dr4c4n: I am still struggling [18:51] dr4c4n: if I click--- NO ACTION :( [18:51] TheSheep must be wearing the invisibility cloak today? ;-) [18:52] dr4c4n: dw about me, sort the others out, Ill still be here [18:59] dr4c4n,any idea? [18:59] have you tried right clicking / changing whatever setting that you are trying to change [18:59] ? [19:00] barring that, have you looked in the log files for any error messages? [19:00] dr4c4n, how can I do? [19:00] I used 9.10 for a while (when it came out) the only lock / unlock I remember wasn't a part of the actual XFCE interface [19:00] well try right clicking on the unlock button to authenticate?? [19:01] or what are you trying to do? [19:01] right click-> no actiom [19:01] are you trying to change the clock or settings, and it's not unlocking for you? [19:01] correct [19:01] tried left-clicking it? [19:01] and also LOGIN SCREEN [19:01] you are on the login screen? [19:01] charlie-tca, sure [19:01] good one charlie-tca [19:02] no.. i try to changelogin screen setting (i am already in my desktop) [19:02] * charlie-tca just thinking that right-click almost nevers does what he wants [19:03] charlie-tca: that's because some evil gnome always changes your right click settings right before you use it [19:03] ;) [19:03] change login screen setting, and it's asking for authentication / there's a lock / unlock button there correct? [19:03] dr4c4n, so? I have no idea... [19:03] dr4c4n, yes you are right :) [19:03] eaglewatch: uno momento.. looking up this is xubuntu 9.10 correct? [19:04] dr4c4n, yes [19:04] eaglewatch: have u read this forum post: http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBUQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D1308700&rct=j&q=xubuntu%209.10%20change%20login%20screen%20setting%20lock%20unlock%20button&ei=MBEJTeKmLcrGswbom5WUAw&usg=AFQjCNG-hGOYo6Eq22QknpM8QMYvfUIrQA [19:05] not yet [19:05] perhaps might be an idea, depends on what you want to do with that login screen, but I think it might point you in the right direction :) [19:06] ah ok.... [19:06] thanks a lot [19:06] now I read ok? [19:06] eaglewatch: best of luck, you should try the latest version ! :) [19:07] ok [19:07] :) [19:07] ciaoooo! [19:08] charlie-tca: we should write a gnome-do wrapper for all of your right click functionalities :) and call it evil-gnome [19:09] don't really think we need it. Besides, there are many changes coming in xfce4.8 [19:10] was making a funny ;) but that's alright :) Looking forward to the next version [19:10] Next version is way more fun to try and make things work! ;-) [19:10] hey guys i just installed xubuntu and i can't see my other drives [19:11] charlie-tca: next version is way more fun to break, and then try to make things work :) [19:11] -freebird [19:11] dr4c4n: that too! :-) [19:11] Guest44846: are they linux drives or windows drives? [19:11] does anyone know how to fix this issue [19:12] both [19:12] 3 drives 2 windows and 1 linux [19:12]
