Mokstar_Hello!02:52
Mokstar_I'm trying to make a persistent LiveSD02:52
Mokstar_I've made one with the Universal USB Installer on Windows, how do I make it go right into the OS rather than the "try ubuntu, install ubuntu, memtest86" menu?02:53
bazhang!usb | Mokstar_02:53
ubottuMokstar_: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent02:53
bazhanglast link Mokstar_02:53
Mokstar_ok03:03
Mokstar_looks like I need to edit syslinux.cfg, right?03:03
bazhangdid you check that guide? set to boot from sd card in bios?03:08
Mokstar_that part I've handled, it's booting fine03:10
Mokstar_just trying to snip out the menu03:10
Mokstar_OK03:51
Mokstar_just so you guys know, in case some poor windows n00b comes in and asks something like, "How do I get my xubuntu SD card to boot quickly into the OS without hitting the menu?"03:52
Mokstar_you can tell them, "edit /syslinux/syslinux.cfg and set the 'timeout' value to 1"03:52
Mokstar_just thought I'd pass that along03:53

AscavasaionI have an AMD Duron 1300MHz machine, 30Gb HDD and 384M RAM.  I have two different graphics cards and two monitors.  What Distro would run the best on it?  I tried Puppy, but its kernel does not allow VGA arbiter which is key to enabling dual display support.  Any advice pelase.10:40
Sysidmoi10:41
Sysiwhops10:41
Sysixubuntu should work on that ram, you could try lubuntu too10:43
AscavasaionBut do their kernels have VGA arbiter enabled?10:43
Sysiidk what that means10:44
Sysiwhat is that graphics card?10:44
AscavasaionSysi: It is what the kernel needs to allow Xorg to use two different graphics cards and two moiitors10:46
Sysiit's not gonna be easy abyway, but maybe possible10:46

faLUCEknome: If I could... I would11:11
faLUCEbut I can't11:11
knomeanyway, you shouldn't irc as root11:11

ubottuHi!, 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!19:31
utotwelIs it possible to change where the Places -> Documents, Music, etc. directories are located?19:31
xandlomcharlie-tca: How are you?19:33
xandlomI am first time on channel.19:33
charlie-tcautotwel: you can remove them from /home and add them elsewhere, but some will be rebuilt at startup19:34
charlie-tcaxandlom: doing fine.19:34
utotwelcharlie-tca: cool. is there a way to "remap" those menu items under Places to the new locations?19:35
charlie-tcaI do it by right-click, send shortcut to side, then right click the shortcut and rename it, like usr-Documents19:36
charlie-tcaIt keeps it from being overwritten then19:36
utotwelcharlie-tca: thanks!19:36

charlie-tcaYou can also try removing them from /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults, but I don't know what it does to remove them completely19:38
charlie-tcaI change some names there, and it works19:38
charlie-tcaThat might move, though, in future releases19:38
utotwelok thanks for the info19:39
charlie-tcaYou are welcome19:40

sockPantshi all20:00
sockPantsi'm trying to install xubuntu via pxe20:00
sockPantsi just copied the /install/netboot folder to the tftpboot folder and it boots, but it boots into an installer that wants to download everything off the internet but the system has no internet connection.20:00
sockPantshow can i make it install from the iso20:00
charlie-tca!install20:14
ubottuUbuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate20:14
sockPantsthe only relevant piece i can find already is local net boot, which doesn't work.20:42
sockPantsi've added a boot menu entry for 'live' and it actually works, but it still boots the same installer which still wants to download from the internet20:43
ahklernerhow can i fix my panel? my computer was acting real laggy and i rebooted, now i dont have a panel. running the xfce4-panel gives me some yuck one, can i get my setup back somehow?22:28

mark76That's better :)23:10
nekoCATI have a quick question.  Does XFCE have a menu editor?23:46
charlie-tcanope23:46
mark76It does in 4.823:46
charlie-tcabut you can use any editor such as alacarte to edit menus in 4.823:47
nekoCAT4.8 has a menu editor? How do I launch it then?23:48
charlie-tcano, it does not23:48
charlie-tcabut you can use any editor such as alacarte to edit menus in 4.823:48
charlie-tcasudo apt-get install alacarte23:49
nekoCATIs there a way to install Alacarte without the Gnome dependencies?23:49
charlie-tcanope23:49
charlie-tcabut you can use any menu editor, too. It does not have to be alacarte23:50
nekoCATDo you have any recommendations then for a lightweight menu editor?23:53
charlie-tcasorry, no, I don't23:53
nekoCATOkay, thanks.23:54
