[02:08] hey, my power button on my tower does nothing. I want it to suspend. I've tried going to settings -> power manager and setting the action to suspend, but it doesn't work? [02:11] lotus: will it suspend with Ctrl+Alt+Del? [02:11] charlie-tca: looks like that activates my screensaver [02:12] hm, what about clicking quit? Is there an option there for suspend? [02:12] charlie-tca: yes, that option works well and is what I've been using. [02:12] (you can click cancel if there isn't one) [02:13] Not all the towers have suspend connected to the power button [02:13] charlie-tca: If I set it to shutdown or ask [02:13] it still does nothing [02:13] MIght be a bios option, too. [02:13] If you hold the power button 8 seconds, it still doesn't shutdown? [02:14] charlie-tca: no, that works fine. [02:15] It may not be able to suspend with the power button. I have had machines that would not do anything but shutdown, and when I changed the motherboard, I found out there was no terminals for suspend on the board. [02:15] charlie-tca: though, if I change the power-manager options to be shutdown, the power button still does nothing if I press it. [02:16] I don't want to do hard shutdown by holding the button in [02:16] That might be a bios setting. My compaq motherboards have a bios option, shutdown or suspend when power button is pressed. Not both [02:17] If it is a bios option, the software can not be forced to override it [02:17] It's strange, though. In Ubuntu 9.10 it was working fine. [02:19] Sounds like we broke that, then. File a bug using ubuntu-bug linux in a terminal, and state in the description that it did work in 9.10 [02:20] charlie-tca: alright, though it works fine on my netbook. Thanks [02:24] Hi people [02:25] How do I install a theme which came in an archive with .config, .theme and .launchy folders? === dude is now known as CloseYetFar [04:20] Anyone else running the pre-release of xfce 4.8? [04:24] Hey! [04:24] I've got a question regarding Flash on my Xubuntu laptop. [04:26] I just installed Flash on my laptop, and I can't get sound to work.

[04:36] I've never needed to use it so I know nothing about it except it gets recommanded for issues like yours [04:39] It's working!! [04:39] Thanks so much!! [04:39] :D [04:39] woot!

(restart didn't fix it) [08:31] !panels [08:31] Did your panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/ [08:37] leoquant, the panel is still there [08:38] is it a notification area problem? [08:39] i am running gnome at the moment..... [08:39] leoquant, notification area is still there aswell - only without the network-manager applet [08:40] service network-manager is running, iwlist shows available networks - so the device is working... [08:40] your not running xubuntu natty? [08:41] leoquant, no, 10.10, albeit on kernel 2.6.29-arm [08:42] and it happened after an update? [08:43] no - just like that. i was downloading something and the download stalled because the connection was lost (happens quite often with this network) - normally i just disconnect and then reconnect. but right after hitting "disconnect" the whole applet vanished.
