[01:34] <tarek_> hi i have freshly installed xubuntu 10.10 and have a low crackling noise in my speaker
[01:34] <tarek_> is there something that i could do?
[01:41] <bazhang> check alsamixer, reduce pcm
[01:43] <tarek_> bazhang: where do i find that?
[01:43] <bazhang> tarek_, terminal---> type --> alsamixer
[01:45] <tarek_> thanks
[07:12] <palhmbs> hey - what's the deal with the menu editor?
[07:17] <palhmbs> how come when I create a new menu item it goes into Other?
[09:45] <inknoir> hi, is this the right channel for questions about xubuntu 11.04 alpha 2 ?
[09:46] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 inknoir
[09:46] <inknoir> thanks bazhang
[10:06] <kbmaniac> is it possible to get thumbnail previews of documents on the desktop ? instead of for example JPG, I know you can in thunar
[15:57] <Khajja> hi guys, brand new to linux and just installed xubuntu 10.10. could somebody answer probably the easiest question ever for me?
[15:58] <Khajja> during installation, it gave the option to add the GUI and i didn't click it by accident. so now i'm fully installed but only with terminal, what command to get the GUI overlay?
[16:00] <TheSheep> Khajja: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktpo
[16:00] <TheSheep> Khajja: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[16:00] <Khajja> thanks sheep
[16:00] <TheSheep> sorry
[16:00] <Khajja> command line is way too intimidating for me
[16:02] <TheSheep> in the end it's the fastest way to do things
[16:02] <TheSheep> (except for drawings)
[16:02] <Khajja> haha, i'd like to learn it, but baby steps
[16:02] <TheSheep> sure, take your time
[16:02] <Khajja> no unix experience whatsoever, just setting up first non-windows on old pc to play with
[16:03] <Khajja> i'm sure this is a biased room, but decided i'd try out xubuntu over mint, good choice?
[16:04] <TheSheep> never tried mint, so can't really tell. I think mint has more things installed and working out of the box, but that might have changed
[16:04] <TheSheep> things like video and audio codecs and flash
[16:05] <Khajja> i'll bumble my way through it on xubuntu, appreciate your assistance
