[00:55] happy new year [00:56] gmt-1 and a bit early? [00:58] gmt+2 goes to bed → === Rena is now known as Guest43508 [01:10] does Xubuntu come with Nouveau driver? === Guest43508 is now known as Rena- [02:09] How do you use wifi in xubuntu [02:10] I see an icon in the upper right of the panel with arrows pointing up and down, and clicking it lists available wireless networks [02:11] if that doesn't work you'll probably need to install some kind of driver and I can't really help with that, sorry [02:13] !wifi [02:13] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [02:20] !drivers [02:25] Tiktalik: the wifidocs page linked above should help you sort the driver out [02:31] is it possible to install edubuntu (without installing the gnome desktop) on a computer that already has xubuntu (i do not wish to use the gnome desktop) [02:32] in fact i do not even wish to have the gnome desktop on the computer at all. [02:40] How do I find out what wireless card I have? [02:41] !wifi [02:41] Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [02:42] Anyone there? [02:43] tiktalik: in terminal lspci [02:44] Hello? [02:44] tiktalik: in terminal lspci [02:45] There are a ton of things there! [02:45] I guess it's the Network controller? [02:46] Hello. [02:46] gr8m8, there are tons of thinfgs there. [02:47] *things [02:47] it should mention wireless [02:48] Okay, then Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)? [02:49] Gr8m8? [02:50] Man puppy had better support. [02:51] dude you are so impatient [02:51] I was getting my breakfast [02:51] fix it yourself [02:51] oh, okay. [02:51] Sorry. [02:52] It's just around here it's nowhere near food eating time. [02:52] Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) [02:53] So would it be that one? [02:54] yep and the wiki talks about it [02:54] Okay. [02:56] Could not find package 'linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic'. [02:56] That's bad. [03:01] So what now? [03:02] Gr8m8? [03:05] Can't keep my stupid ethernet cable in. [03:05] Not even doing anything, and it keeps sliding out. [03:06] Came out again! [03:08] Hello! [03:47] hey, I've just installed 10.10 and the terminal app doesn't seem to be executing my ~/.bashrc... any ideas? [03:50] RenaKunisaki: have you done an update since installing? [03:51] yes [03:51] do you have a .bash_profile? [03:51] apparently not [03:52] looks like I didn't have one before either [03:52] see if there is one in /etc/skel [03:52] or would that be somewhere besides home >.> [03:52] could be in /etc [03:53] or in .profile [03:54] yeah I see .profile here [03:54] that's just a set of commands executed by each shell? [03:55] a basic .bash_profile just has the line . $HOME/.bashrc [03:55] I've no idea what's in .profile I don't have it here [03:56] hm actually something else is funny. even manually doing ". ~/.bashrc" nothing has happened. still the usual old prompt etc. [03:57] hold on, I'm an idiot. let's try copying it to the right place. [03:57] there we go. dur. [03:58] heh :) [03:59] figures, I thought of that so I did "ls" to see if I'd copied to the current directory instead and it didn't show up, so I thought I must have done it right [03:59] of course it doesn't show in "ls" without -a >.> [03:59] me so smrt. [04:00] that always catches me out... [04:01] I just wish programs didn't pollute $HOME with their .foo instead of .config/myapp/foo, then I could just alias ls to ls -a and be done with it. [05:45] happy new years Technicians of Xubuntu! [05:45] yaaay [06:30] does xubuntu have any plans to develop wuxi? [07:19] anyone? whenever I log in the screen flashes and I'm logged out again. [07:30] hey i cant find the 'Places' part of my task bar like how it used to be in gnome..the reason being i want to browse thru my windows harddrive [10:42] Good morning to all on the first day of this brand new year :) [10:46] does anyone know of an application that can read barcodes from DVDs and CDs? [10:46] I would like to create a database of my collection, however, I dont like the idea of manually entering each one, I have a barcode scanner [10:56] alexandria does books [11:00] i've try to add ppa:xubuntu-team/ppa to repositories, but got an error [11:00] any idea why? [11:02] https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-team/+archive/ppa [11:05] help? [11:08] rethus: add those deb and deb-src lines to /etc/apt/sources.list [11:08] replace natty with your ubuntu version [11:09] gksudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list iirc [11:10] k, i'll have a look [11:10] or i'm not exactly sure what version should there be.. [11:10] depends about your ubuntu version and what you're installing i guess [11:11] http://ppa.launchpad.net/xubuntu-team/ppa/ubuntu/dists/ [11:12] there's only very old versions, front page may be updated automatically [11:12] what you'd want from there? [11:17] i have maverick [11:17] :( so there are no ppa packages ?! [16:09] good morning. I recently moved from ubuntu 10.10 to xubuntu 10.10. I am not able to start xfce at the login although it worked until reboot. Any help? [16:10] what does it do? [16:10] at login screen goes black and returns to login [16:15] http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-general-1/logging-in-sends-me-back-to-xubuntu-login-screen-im-trapped-789832/ [16:15] try what the last post suggests [16:16] cool thanks [16:16] if you don*t have saved settings, just remove ~/.config/ in virtual terminal [16:16] okay [16:45] Sysi: Thanks. Turns out it was an issue with .ICEauthority access. I removed it and everything works now. [18:46] hello, how do I disable the screen energy saver or whatever [18:46] my laptop get stuck with a black screen anytime this thing kicks in.. [18:46] menu → settings → screensaver [18:46] or power manager settings [18:47] hm.. clicking this actually runs the screensaver [18:47] in my case, cause an X reboot [18:48] you could entirely remove screensaver [18:48] package is xscreensaver iirc [18:48] I suppose I'll do that [18:51] probably something must be wrong with my graphics driver [18:51] i have an X crash each time I run wine too [18:51] XIO error 11 [19:22] I'm desperately looking for someone to help me fix my 3g connection... with network manager i can't connect (tries for some minutes and then gives up) - wvdial returns "No Carrier!"... i don't know what to do...
