Calzcharlie-tca: why does the iso of xubuntu is so hard to burn01:11
Calzi downloaded another one and burned it two times, both with errors01:12
charlie-tcaIt might be the site you are downloading from, instead of anything you are doing. Which mirror is it?01:14
Calzlet me see01:15
Calzi download from the site01:15
Calzhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/10.10/release/xubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso01:15
Calznow i'm trying to down by torrent01:16

charlie-tcaOkay, that is a good mirror01:17
Calzhehe01:17
Calzyeah but i burned two cds with the same error01:18
Calzso i think that is an iso problem01:18
hiexpo? are all the apps that are available in ubuntu available here in x02:01
charlie-tcaIf x means xubuntu, yes, since Xubuntu uses the same repositories as Ubuntu02:02
hiexpocharlie-tca, ok kool just wanted to make sure i will be able to do the same thing in xubuntu that i can in ubuntu02:03
charlie-tcadepends on what you are trying to do. sometimes, you have to work harder to make it happen in xubuntu02:04
hiexpocharlie-tca, why causes of the xserver02:04
charlie-tcabecause Ubuntu makes it very simple for the beginner to use02:05
hiexpocharlie-tca, ya true   > does compiz work ok under xubuntu02:05
charlie-tcaNot without some effort02:06
charlie-tcaThe window manager in Xubuntu does have its own compositor, though, that does not need compiz02:06
hiexpocharlie-tca, true but linux wasn't suppose to be as easy as they made it in ubuntu02:07
hiexpocharlie-tca, what does it use ?02:08
charlie-tcaxfwm402:08
charlie-tcathe xfce window manager02:08
hiexpooh ok02:08
hiexpoya i ran a live system and it appears to me to be much faster than ubuntu gnome02:10
charlie-tcaThen the installed system would seem like it is super fast02:10
hiexpokool02:10
hiexpook well thanx again there charlie-tca gotta do some backups now02:12

Lord_Rahl? I just install xubuntu 10.04 and install the xfce 4.8 PPA (I think). I can not find a mouse tweaker app in xfce Is there one or do I to install one? I find my mouse a little twitchy21:14
Lord_Rahlnm I found it21:18
pAt_In Ubuntu's audio settings, you can set the volume more than 100%, up to approx. 150%. Is this in Xubuntu also possible? I couldnj't find a way In the normal audio settings.21:44
charlie-tcaHow high above maximum volume is 150%?21:45
charlie-tca100% should be the highest possible volume, I don't know if it goes higher, myself21:45
knomei suppose 150% means that it is made louder, but the quality also is reduced (eg. the 'low' and 'high' sound are cut off)21:46
knome+s21:46
* Balsaq takes the long way home thru the sparsely populated binary rainforest known as....Xubuntu!21:48
pAt_yes knome, it is louder then the maximum of xubuntus setting, and I would like to achive this in xubuntu as well.21:48
pAt_charlie-tca: http://pat.homelinux.org/screen.jpg21:48
knomepAt_, have you checked all the settings in the mixer? i mean, is 'master' set to as loud as it can be, etc?21:48
pAt_yes knome, I even used the alsamixer in the commandline21:49
knomepAt_, do you have pulseaudio installed? try pavucontrol21:49
pAt_I just have a standard xubuntu installation knome, so I have to install pulseaudio additionally?21:50
knomeno, i think it's installed by default. i don't know if pavucontrol is, though21:51
pAt_pavucontrol is not installed, I just install it21:53
pAt_hm, also just up to 100%21:56

welshmenhi, i was hoping to get some help with a install?23:30
welshmeni'm trying to get Ubuntu 10.10 installed side by side with Win7. It has copied all of the files and i've put in the user name, password and all that jazz, but the forward button isn't lit for me to click on. I've hit the back button a number of times and than gone forward again but it still won't let me continue23:33
welshmenany ideas?23:34
charlie-tcauser name must be all small letters, and cannot be "admin"23:34
welshmenohhh i see23:34
welshmenthank you23:35
charlie-tcaYou are welcome23:35
mantiseHi23:35
charlie-tca!hi | mantise23:35
ubottumantise: 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!23:35
welshmeni feel silly now , that was so simple23:35
mantisei just tryed out some diffrent desktops for my ubuntu box.. can i just install/remove as many desktops that i want? without it messing up anything ? programs/desktops ?23:36
charlie-tcawelshmen: It is not explained, how would you know?23:36
mantisei have now 4 -5 desktops installed, but i now wanna remove the once i dont use, and just keep 223:36
charlie-tcamantise: yes, the ???-desktop is a metapackage, you can remove them safely23:36
charlie-tcaIt doesn't remove all the packages it installed, though23:37
mantisecharlie-tca: ok, just thru the software manager as i used to install em ?23:37
charlie-tcaI think so23:37
welshmeni guess i could have tried that or other options?, before running for help at the first road block.23:37
charlie-tcaIt doesn't hurt to leave them, either23:37
mantisecharlie-tca: well, when i find xubuntu there, there is some programs checked in the info.. i might remove some programs that came with xubuntu ?23:37
mantisecharlie-tca: ok :)23:38
charlie-tcanope, not normally, mantise23:38
mantisecharlie-tca: i just dont wanna use any kde programs for example, if i just use gnome and lubuntu desktops :)23:38
charlie-tcaYou would have to remove the kde applications individually, then23:39
mantiseok :)23:39
charlie-tcaYou could remove down to gnome only, and then reinstall lubuntu, too23:40
charlie-tca!puregnome23:40
ubottuIf you want to remove all !Kubuntu packages or !Xubuntu packages and have a default !Ubuntu system, follow the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureGnome23:40
mantiseomg23:42
mantisethe manuel remove is a spam command :o23:42
mantisebut, i will go remove them, and go with kubuntu and xubuntu only23:43
mantisethen i have an "heavyweight" and a "leightweight" desktop :)23:43
mantiseubottu: is that way better than doing it from the software manager ?23:45
ubottuError: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)23:45
mantiselol23:46
mantisemy bad :p23:46
charlie-tcaIt helps get all the packages out that don't apply to the Ubuntu installation itself.23:46
charlie-tcaDoing through software manager means you decide which packages to remove23:47
