[01:07] So I wrote a shell script for bash ( http://codepad.org/Daamvs4E ). It works through ./scriptname.sh (except it appears that sudo isn't working), but trying to run it through a launcher only gives a blank terminal with nothing executing. Any help please? [01:10] trough launcher ? did you put it correctly in init.d ? [01:13] What do you mean? [01:14] I didn't know I had to do anything in init.d to run a launcher === jwkokc is now known as jk_ [03:14] how do I get the volume app back in the status section? I remove pulseaudio and had to reinstall because of newer app needed it.

[15:56] sounds like a panel plugin to me [15:56] what plugin to install? [15:59] what plugins are installed? [16:00] one of them might be causing the freeze [16:00] i guess tasklist [16:00] how to see installed plugins [16:00] what do you have in your panel [16:00] xfce menu [16:00] places [16:00] firefox [16:01] connections [16:01] updates [16:01] clock [16:01] and turn off restart [16:01] searching, please, as told, do not use enter as punctuation - try to keep the lines longer [16:02] ok [16:10] can I remove xfce4-panel and use gnome-panel [16:13] or what keys to press to stop freezing [16:16] If you have not added anything to the panel, you should report a bug using [16:17] ubuntu-bug xfce4-panel in a terminal [16:17] You can use gnome-panel, but it will add a lot of other things to the computer [16:20] ok thanks [16:20] may be the ps ax | grep weather causing problem [16:20] 1866 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep --color=auto weather [16:21] that is on your panel?

I am a bit confused with a problem I ran into trying xubuntu from a USB drive. Can someone lend me a hand? [23:05] i need both hands for typing, but pope a question and somebody maybe will ansver [23:06] When booting I get the message about localhost.localdomain missing. [23:06] I am now trying to edit /etc/hosts as quite a few forum posts tell to. [23:07] Unfortunately the only text editor I seem to be able to start is vi... no fun. [23:07] But to edit, I have to use sudo, as far as I understand. [23:07] But I have no clue what the password is. [23:08] what is the password you log in? that will be the same password [23:08] do not type it here, please [23:09] How do I know that? i just started Xubuntu from the USB drive without installing, it never asks me to type one. [23:09] It must be the standard password for the user "ubuntu". [23:09] then there isn't one, [23:10] just type sudo vi /etc/hosts and hit enter [23:11] you tried nano? [23:11] how did you made the usb stick? [23:11] Two errors. One about the missing localhost.localdomain, one about "can't mkdir /var/lib/sudo" no space on device, and when entering no password it tells me that "ubuntu" is not in the list of sudoers. [23:11] pendrivelinux [23:11] Worked great on my Desktop, but on the laptop it started acting up. [23:14] As for nano: "Error opening terminal: unknown" [23:14] Sysi: would it have written defaults for the desktop, and now can't be changed to a different machine? [23:14] i don't know how those live-thingies work [23:14] "today's" method is unetbootin or usb-creator [23:15] yep unetbootin works fine [23:15] I just used it this morning to do an install [23:16] just grab it and the latest 10.10 iso, or use the xubuntu / 10.10 livecd option in unetbootin [23:18] The laptop won't have internet, and the internet connection I have right now is so slow it would take me at least a couple hours to download a new iso, thats why I hopened I could somehow resolve it to at least do some testing. [23:19] But thanks anyway! :) [23:19] np :) === _TechAway_ is now known as _Techie_ [23:34] hi all [23:35] anyone here have any issues installing itunes with wine?
