ArMo3I installed Xubuntu via WUBI . When I reboot into Xubuntu, it first says "Press ESC to add advanced boot options" and after some time (that is after the loading is complete) "Out of Sync / 67.5 kHz" .01:28
KangaroooArMo3: after installing wubi is in windows making size and all files auto copies. then restarting should give option to log in xubuntu01:44
skyhawkHello?01:56
mrthelimeguyHey all, I was wondering, is Xubuntu a good platform for minor programming languages, eg, Python, Perl, and Ruby?02:40
strgllhHow can I set xubuntu to automatically hibernate at a certain power level?04:32
strgllhReally liking xubuntu, just installed it today. Seems to have less of the Canonical junk. Is that on purpose?04:43

galanakishi, I can't choose the resolution i need. How can I do this?08:05
TheSheepsettings -> settings manager -> display08:09
galanakisthe option isn't avalible08:11
galanakisI have a 1366x768 screen and can only choose a nother screen resolution08:11
galanakishow do you change the resolution, when the resolution you want isn't an option..09:03
Sysiarandr or xorg.conf09:18
galanakisthere is no xorg.conf in /X11/ :(09:31
Sysinot anymore by default09:31
galanakisand I'm not sure what i must do with arandr09:32
SysiGUI should not be too hard09:32
galanakisoh okay, so i must just make one? what must i type in it for a 1366x768 resolution?09:32
galanakisIt doesn't have my resolution listed in the GUI09:33
galanakissysi, i've downloaded arandr, but it only has the wrong resolution avaliable.10:40
galanakissysi, i've also tried making a xorg.conf, but it messed up the display when i rebooted, and i had to delete it.10:40
galanakisI need to shut down the GUI, so it's just the terminal running, how do I do this?12:36
TheSheepsudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop12:37

Zaibach333hello18:03
Zaibach333I just installed xubuntu on a different computer than what I'm using and its reaaallly slow, plus I had to update packages in terminal cause the gui one wont work.18:04
Zaibach333that and I cant use the install additional drivers to finish my installation of hardware18:04
Zaibach333is there a way to do that in terminal?18:04
charlie-tcayes, use jockey-gtk. If it is real slow, how much memory/ram does it have/18:07
charlie-tca?18:07
Zaibach333a gig18:07
Zaibach333it was an early windows vista laptop... idk I just assume the hardware is good enough since I've tried installing xubuntu on lesser computers18:08
charlie-tcano reason for it to be slow with 1GB ram, might want to run memcheck on it from the grub menu18:09
Zaibach333is the grub menu the menu from an install disk?18:10
charlie-tcano, it is the menu you get when you hold right shift after the bios check18:10
Zaibach333oh nice, does that work on most linux distributions?18:11
charlie-tcaI don't know, I think it should work on the ones using grub218:13
Zaibach333I thought it was done with apt=get upgrade but its still going, is there some arguments needed after jockey-gtk once I get there?18:14
charlie-tca!jockey-gtk18:14
Zaibach333!jockey-gtk ? what do you mean18:15
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)18:15
charlie-tcaUsually jockey-gtk DRIVER18:15
Zaibach333oh, I dont know exactly what driver though...18:16
charlie-tcaThen you probably should use the Applications -> System -> Hardware drivers18:16
charlie-tcaor Additional Drivers, depending on the release you have18:16
Zaibach333that's what isnt working atm18:16
charlie-tcabut you have to wait for updates to finish, then restart the computer18:17
Zaibach333I suppose that could fix that18:17
charlie-tcaYou can not do both at the same time.18:17
Zaibach333well as soon as the OS was installed I tried oppening that and it didnt work, and the package manager wouldnt either so I found the command for apt-get update and upgrade hoping an upgrade would fix the program additional drivers18:18
Zaibach333so jockey-gtk doesnt have an auto thing with prompts or something similar to additional drivers?18:20
charlie-tcaYou did a new installation from cd?18:20
Zaibach333yes18:20
charlie-tcano, it doesn't prompt18:20
Zaibach333multiple tries on this computer, multiple successful tries on other computers18:20
Zaibach333_got disconnected there18:23
Zaibach333_I find it a bit odd that I have to update after install cause the install said it would update while it installed idk, guess its okay.18:24
strgllhAnyone know when xubuntu is moving to xfce4.8? We're currently on 4.6, right?19:51
charlie-tcaWhen Natty Narwhal is released19:52
strgllhcharlie-tca, thanks!19:53
khaki54hola22:14
khaki54I've been trying to sift through the forums22:14
khaki54does xubuntu 10.10 still support original xbox?22:14
khaki54and do you think I can use it to build a router?22:15
charlie-tcaI don't think xubuntu had an Xbox release22:27
pleia2charlie-tca: http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/XUbuntu22:29
pleia2err, khaki5422:29
pleia2different XUbuntu22:29
khaki54haha really?22:29
pleia2as far as I know that project is no longer maintained22:29
charlie-tcaThanks, pleia222:29
khaki54I mean it's liked directly22:29
pleia2"XUbuntu is also the name of the official lightweight version of Ubuntu. The project can be found on http://xubuntu.org/"22:29
charlie-tcaSo, that was using Ubuntu 5.10, Xubuntu started with 6.0622:30
khaki54hmmm22:31
khaki54so it's poorly worded on their site22:31
pleia2yeah, it confuses a lot of people22:31
khaki54you win22:32
khaki54There is no relationship between "xUbuntu" linux and "Xubuntu" or "XUbuntu" linux system22:32
khaki54I was trying to come up with a quick fix since I bricked my linksys wrt54g22:33
khaki54stuck using the fios router which blows22:34
khaki54ok22:34
khaki54well thanks for straightening me out22:34
khaki54probably saved me several hours of pain22:34
khaki54though I could just grab the breezy 5.10 xUbuntu release and upgrade the distro22:35
bazhangdoubtful22:36
khaki54you think it would remove my drivers due to lack of compat?22:37
charlie-tcaIf they have it. We don't archive the end of life releases here22:37
bazhangit would be completely unsupported, with zero updates available22:37
khaki54yeah that's a good point also, the repos would be dead22:38
khaki54maybe strip the drivers out of the old distro and add them to a newer one?22:38
khaki54then install it that way?22:38
khaki54I'm biding my time until www.netgear.com/home/products/wirelessrouters/high-performance/WNDR4000.aspx comes out22:39
josh1If I close my lid of my laptop before I log in, I get a weird white login screen, my passwords do not work with this screen, anybody have an idea of what this is?22:46
charlie-tcajosh1: sounds like you are suspending it during the bootup22:48
josh1charlie-tca: any idea why my password doesn't work? or how to disable this?22:49
charlie-tcalogin, then close the lid?22:50
josh1yeah, I had never done it before, just noticed it now, thought it was weird. Just didn't get why my password didn't work, I am the only account and I did the install myself22:50
charlie-tcaIt doesn't know how to recover before you login, apparently22:53
josh1oh ok22:59
