surreal7zMy widows xp has chrashed badly... can't even boot into Safe Mode anymore... so, I was thinking to use it through linux... how to do that?, maybe virtualbox?... is it possible to use dvd and internet... install programs and such things?13:31
Sysiif it doesn't work it does not work, if you have enough good hardware you can try running it on virtualbox13:33
Sysiinternet should work, dvd propably also, usb not in the open vbox13:34
surreal7zokey, thx13:36
surreal7zwhat does it mean... enough good hardware?, am I able to install drivers?13:37

ubottuEn la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter.17:35

charlie-tcasometimes it just takes a few minutes17:43
baka_exist a room to xubuntu in spanish? o a room of xfce user ?17:45
charlie-tcano, there is no xubuntu spanish room17:45
Sysixubuntu users should be on same LoCo channel17:45
knomethe loco (local community) rooms are working with all the flavors17:45
charlie-tcabaka_ already said there was no response in #ubuntu-es, so would try xubuntu-es if it existed17:46
Sysinicofs: it should work by default, if you want to reset your bashrc: cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~/.bashrc17:47
nicofsSysi, mhm. i had a look at bashrc... first thing i did... the section was not commented out...17:50

drcI've googled around and found (seemingly) contradictory answers to the question:  "How do I edit the menus in xfce"...can some one point me towards a definitive URL?21:32
Sysifrom the config files or edit .desktop entries21:33
Sysii try get the url..21:33
charlie-tca1. [for 4.6] copy '/etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu to '~/.config/xdg/menus' and customize it.21:34
charlie-tca2. [for 4.6] You can also create desktop entries in '~/.local/share/applications' to override the existing applications (change or hide) or add new ones.21:34
charlie-tca3. http://wiki.xfce.org/howto/customize-menu21:34
drcI guess I should say I've upgraded to 4.8.0 (in 10.10), if that makes a difference?21:34
charlie-tcayes it makes a difference21:35
drc:)21:35
charlie-tcause alacarte21:35
drcI found that, but was wondering if it was "kosher".  I'll grab it and try it out thanks.21:36
charlie-tcaany freedesktop.org compatible editor will work for Xfce 4.821:37
drcI take it the "Main Menu" undr the Appplications>Settings menu is the entry for alacarte (don't remember it from before)?21:40
charlie-tcano idea, I haven't used it21:40
drcthanks21:44
drcWell, that was interesting...installed alacarte (in xfce 4.8.0, 10.10)...unclicked some things in the menu(s) that I didn't care about, and lo and behold they showed up in "Other" (which wasn't there before). Checked in Main Menu to unclick Other and it won't let me unclick Other (shows it NOT clicked/showing). Any ideas where I can go from here22:08
surreal7zright now... i am running windows xp on vbox..... it crashed xD  .... buawhauwha22:11
charlie-tcayup22:13
charlie-tcahave to wait for natty maybe.22:13
surreal7zno... vbox didn't crash... only windows.... but not anymore... just.... some windows stuff problem...22:14
surreal7zi had... a problem... couldn't even boot into Safe Mode... so this time, I have put it in vbox... not dual boot... and... its simply great :p22:14
surreal7zmaybe I over reacted... but, it feels simply great that they can't mess up things anymore... so badly22:16
charlie-tcaThe advantage of VirtualBox, you can just delete the machine and rebuild it quickly22:16
xubuntu716takes too long to install22:58
xubuntu716is this room gay?22:59
charlie-tcaDid you need something, xubuntu716?22:59
