| nicofs | I need a program to watch my DVB-T stick's analogue input... i tried me-tv, but it completely lacks this option... | 09:35 |
|---|---|---|
| nicofs | (it's composite video, if i'm not mistaken...) | 09:36 |
| TheSheep | maybe try vlc | 09:36 |
| TheSheep | I remember it had rather rich input options | 09:37 |
| nicofs | i wouldn't know how... vlc just starts to scan for channels | 09:37 |
| * TheSheep doesn't know either | 09:37 | |
| Sysi | i think kaffeine is commonly used, but your stick need to be suported | 09:38 |
| nicofs | hmm... it installed some naughty restricted drivers, when i plugged it in... | 09:39 |
| nicofs | hmm... not an option... maybe the drivers don't include the analogue input... | 09:43 |

| charlie-tca | Yeah | 17:51 |
| charlie-tca | and then we say | 17:51 |
| charlie-tca | !hi | xubuntu641 | 17:51 |
| ubottu | xubuntu641: Hi!, Welcome to #xubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines. Enjoy your stay! | 17:51 |
| lostson | is there a grpahical way to turn off clicks on my touchpad in xfce i cant seem to find one ? | 17:51 |
| charlie-tca | xubuntu641: You must be installing? | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | thx | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | yessss | 17:52 |
| charlie-tca | Great! | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | third time | 17:52 |
| charlie-tca | Oh-oh | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | first ubuntu | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | it was slow | 17:52 |
| xubuntu641 | then xubuntu | 17:53 |
| xubuntu641 | ive crashd it | 17:53 |
| xubuntu641 | while changeing those | 17:53 |
| xubuntu641 | window borders | 17:53 |
| charlie-tca | It happens. We call it experience | 17:53 |
| xubuntu641 | im brand new to it | 17:54 |
| xubuntu641 | soo | 17:54 |
| xubuntu641 | but it was little slow on my | 17:54 |
| xubuntu641 | old computer | 17:54 |
| charlie-tca | how much memory in the computer? | 17:54 |
| xubuntu641 | 512+256 | 17:55 |
| charlie-tca | That should be plenty for xubuntu | 17:55 |
| xubuntu641 | intel 1.8 GHz | 17:55 |
| xubuntu641 | it has some radeon 128 | 17:56 |
| xubuntu641 | is it maybe prbl whith some drivers | 17:56 |
| xubuntu641 | or similar | 17:56 |
| xubuntu641 | thingi | 17:57 |
| charlie-tca | shouldn't be. radeon drivers are built-in | 17:57 |
| charlie-tca | lostson: what version of xubuntu? | 17:57 |
| lostson | 10.10 | 17:57 |
| xubuntu641 | yeah | 17:57 |
| lostson | i know in gnome it was easy to find but i have had no luck with xfce so far | 17:58 |
| xubuntu641 | its beta question mark | 17:58 |
| charlie-tca | lostson: it would be the same package in Xubuntu | 17:58 |
| charlie-tca | but it is not installed by default | 17:59 |
| xubuntu641 | im installing xfce becouse i guess it is an old computer now | 17:59 |
| lostson | hmm well i have gnome installed as well | 17:59 |
| xubuntu641 | my freind told me about gnome | 17:59 |
| xubuntu641 | he said it works better | 18:00 |
| charlie-tca | That makes it easy, then. Just start the gnome desktop, look at the name of the application you used, then log back into xubuntu and run it in terminal | 18:00 |
| xubuntu641 | then xfce | 18:00 |
| lostson | its in the mouse settings in gnome | 18:00 |
| xubuntu641 | wait | 18:00 |
| charlie-tca | waiting | 18:00 |
| xubuntu641 | whan i installed last time no gnome in selectio | 18:01 |
| xubuntu641 | n | 18:01 |
| charlie-tca | right | 18:01 |
| charlie-tca | it is called Ubuntu desktop session, now | 18:01 |
| xubuntu641 | righ | 18:01 |
| charlie-tca | gnome is what the desktop environment is that is used. Xubuntu uses Xfce desktop environment | 18:02 |
| xubuntu641 | ok | 18:03 |
| xubuntu641 | so ive gata get back to ubuntu | 18:03 |
| charlie-tca | lostson: if you have both desktops installed, you should be able to look in /usr/share/applications and find it | 18:03 |
| charlie-tca | why? | 18:03 |
| xubuntu641 | ive formated ubuntu for space | 18:04 |
| charlie-tca | Xubuntu is very nice | 18:04 |
| xubuntu641 | yeah ive use it for a day | 18:04 |
| xubuntu641 | i love it | 18:04 |
| xubuntu641 | but | 18:04 |
| xubuntu641 | it wos pritti slow | 18:04 |
| charlie-tca | and ubuntu was fast? | 18:05 |
| xubuntu641 | same problem | 18:05 |
| xubuntu641 | thats why i instald it | 18:05 |
| xubuntu641 | xubuntu | 18:05 |
| xubuntu641 | and this is my fastest dektop | 18:06 |
| xubuntu641 | ive got PII | 18:06 |
| xubuntu641 | i use it for print serv | 18:06 |
| xubuntu641 | i saw minimum req so ive tried | 18:08 |
| charlie-tca | It will be slow with the minimums. My PII, 400MHz, with 256MB ram is what I test on | 18:09 |
| xubuntu641 | what things can i doo to make it faster | 18:09 |
| xubuntu641 | i doo not need it to bee prity | 18:10 |
| charlie-tca | Have you added applications already? | 18:10 |
| xubuntu641 | 7 mins to completion | 18:10 |
| charlie-tca | After the install, run the updates. that is the first thing to do after you restart | 18:10 |
| xubuntu641 | ok | 18:10 |
| xubuntu641 | ive checked download updates | 18:11 |
| xubuntu641 | if I crash it again is there easyer way to repair it | 18:12 |
| charlie-tca | Okay, that's a good thing. You still have to run update manager when the orange icon shows up | 18:13 |
| xubuntu641 | i will | 18:13 |
| charlie-tca | There usually is, but we have to know what you did before the crash | 18:13 |
| charlie-tca | stay away from the wildfire themes | 18:13 |
| xubuntu641 | i think that was it | 18:14 |
| charlie-tca | That can be recovered by deleting the .config directory | 18:14 |
| xubuntu641 | i was chosein them then got logged off | 18:14 |
| xubuntu641 | what does point before name means | 18:15 |
| xubuntu641 | does point hide the directory | 18:16 |
| charlie-tca | yes, it is a hidden directory or file | 18:16 |
| xubuntu641 | it is in home | 18:17 |
| xubuntu641 | config | 18:17 |
| xubuntu641 | ? | 18:18 |
| charlie-tca | the dot is important. You can have a config and a .config directory | 18:18 |
| xubuntu641 | delete .config right? | 18:19 |
| lighta | hi here, hey my wifi often crash, how can I reboot that ? using network-manager 0.8 | 18:21 |
| charlie-tca | if you install the wild??? theme and it won't let you login again | 18:22 |
| charlie-tca | lighta: click the network-manager icon in panel, click connected, then click it again ang click connect ? | 18:25 |
| lostson | there found a easy way | 18:27 |
| lighta | charlie-tca, yeah well I'm looking for a command line, here my scenario : turned of wifi card, (laptop button) turnig on few moment later, activation button on nw-m still grey, waiting 5min turned off network, turning back on, still can enable back wifi | 18:32 |

| frenzz | Hello, i'm install xubuntu under vmware, so i have "user" account with same pass., i can use "sudo", it works, but when i try "su root" it didn't because i don't remember that setup pass dor sudo during install. process. what i should do for use "su root" ? | 18:36 |
| charlie-tca | !su | 18:36 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 18:36 |
| lighta | i'll try that charlie-tca thx, | 18:38 |
| charlie-tca | good luck | 18:38 |
| frenzz | how setup "root" password with "sudo" command ? | 18:40 |
| charlie-tca | We don't recommend it | 18:40 |
| frenzz | why | 18:41 |
| charlie-tca | security | 18:41 |
| frenzz | how get root commandline ? | 18:41 |
| charlie-tca | You can do everything with sudo instead of giving root a passwork | 18:41 |
| charlie-tca | just use sudo -i | 18:41 |
| frenzz | thx | 18:42 |
| frenzz | so root don't have password by default ? | 18:42 |
| charlie-tca | correct | 18:42 |
| charlie-tca | Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information | 18:45 |

| ubuntu | it is | 19:12 |
| charlie-tca | You look in the hard drive for /home | 19:12 |
| charlie-tca | You should be able to turn on hidden files in the view menu | 19:12 |
| ubuntu | kk | 19:13 |

| ubuntu | looks like my drive home is on seperate partiton | 19:15 |
| ubuntu | and im on live | 19:15 |

| charlie-tca | It should still be in filesystem | 19:15 |
| ubuntu | ok | 19:15 |
