| curry | hi, i am pretty new to linux, and xubuntu... i am trying to apply http://jurialmunkey.deviantart.com/#/d316eqx but am winding up with http://jurialmunkey.deviantart.com/#/d316eqx | 04:17 |
|---|---|---|
| curry | oh woops.... | 04:17 |
| curry | http://screencast.com/t/GCZ0yYDm | 04:17 |
| curry | maybe i can get some help as to what i'm doing wrong, or not doing . . . | 04:19 |
| cody-somerville | curry, What version of Xubuntu are you running? | 04:41 |
| curry | 10.10? | 04:58 |
| curry | cody-somerville: | 04:58 |
| curry | okay, i got the theme, but i don have transparency . . . | 04:59 |
| cody-somerville | curry, Do you have the compositor enabled? | 04:59 |
| curry | i don't know what a compositor is | 04:59 |
| cody-somerville | curry, Applications > Settings > Xfce4 Settings Manager | 05:00 |
| cody-somerville | curry, Click on 'Window Manager Tweaks' and then the 'Compositor' tab. | 05:01 |
| cody-somerville | curry, Is 'Enable display compositing' checked? | 05:01 |
| curry | there's nothing in window manager tweaks | 05:01 |
| curry | cody-somerville: http://screencast.com/t/frIyvisCJl | 05:05 |
| cody-somerville | curry, If you click 'Overview' and click on 'Appearance', does anything show up? | 05:06 |
| curry | yeah | 05:06 |
| cody-somerville | Can you try going back to the 'Window Manager Tweaks'? | 05:08 |
| curry | blank still | 05:09 |
| curry | iḿ running this in a vm, i'm thinking that might make an impact . . . | 05:10 |
| cody-somerville | curry, I've never ran into such a problem before. Not sure what the issue is I'm afraid. It might be related to your theme. If you're using a vm, maybe you could try a fresh copy and see if you can reproduce? | 05:12 |
| curry | alright thanks | 05:12 |
| curry | cody-somerville: i think it's related to the theme | 05:19 |
| leoquant | ablomen welke irc client gebruik je? | 08:26 |
| ablomen | xchat | 08:27 |
| leoquant | je zou /set irc_join_delay 20 kunnen proberen | 08:28 |
| ablomen | why? | 08:29 |
| leoquant | dan heb je je cloak direct | 08:29 |
| leoquant | nu join je voor ident by services | 08:29 |
| leoquant | freenode needs some time | 08:29 |
| leoquant | standard 2 is often to "short" | 08:30 |
| ablomen | hah ja thanks, goede tip | 08:31 |

| homebrewcider | hi , i've reinstalled the OS on my server adding my second hdd back, how do I find out what filesystem I have on there so it gets mounted properly please? | 12:00 |
| TheSheep | homebrewcider: you don't know how you formatted it? | 12:55 |
| dbkubis | a | 16:26 |
| Deet` | ok, i have having problems with USB drive. it's a 4gb drive, but Xubuntu see it as 64mb and unrecognized DiskLabelType under gparted] | 18:00 |
| Deet` | i've tried making a new partition table, but it doesn't seem to do anything | 18:01 |
| Deet` | any ideas/ | 18:01 |
| Deet` | ? | 18:01 |
| TheSheep | Deet`: is it perhaps encrypted? | 18:01 |
| Deet` | not to my knowledge. it's brand new | 18:01 |
| Sysi | sounds just broken | 18:06 |
| charlie-tca | try formatting it to fat32 | 18:07 |
| charlie-tca | I have 100 US dollars worth of USB flash drives here that will only format FAT 16 or FAT32 | 18:07 |
| Deet` | gpart won't lemt me do anything to it | 18:08 |
| Deet` | let* | 18:08 |
| Sysi | if creating partition table don't make gparted to see it right, formatting doesn't matter | 18:08 |
| Deet` | gparted won't create the partition table either | 18:08 |
| === Thermi_ is now known as Thermi | ||

| Sysi | sounds like my broken stick | 18:09 |

| Deet` | i'm in Belize. there is no exchange | 18:09 |
| drc | Deet`: Did you try the "Erase Disk" button in the Startup Disk Creator? | 18:10 |
| Deet` | i tried the USB disk creator and it just says i need to format the drive | 18:11 |
| Deet` | i click format, nothing happens | 18:11 |
| drc | Deet`: Did you try the "Erase Disk" button in the Startup Disk Creator? Again? | 18:11 |
| Deet` | there is no erase disk button | 18:11 |
| Deet` | [12:11] <Deet`> i tried the USB disk creator and it just says i need to format the drive | 18:12 |

| charlie-tca | Xubuntu community meeting in #ubuntu-meeting in 20 minutes. Everyone is invited to attend. Agenda is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings | 18:40 |
| drc | charlie-tca: Well, that (community meeting) was interesting | 19:39 |
| charlie-tca | Thank you | 19:39 |
| charlie-tca | We try to keep everyone informed through that meeting, and get people actively involvedk | 19:40 |
| drc | These are weekly (and announced here)? | 19:40 |
| pleia2 | yep | 19:41 |
| midway | Anyone available? | 20:40 |
| charlie-tca | !anyone | 20:41 |
| ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 20:41 |
| midway | im downloading ubuntu for a client, it its almost finished on the download and it says ready whenever you are. I open the display and it says this atkbd serio0: use 'setkeycodes' e00d <keycode> to make it known | 20:41 |
| midway | *xubuntu | 20:41 |
| midway | How do i get passed that point? | 20:42 |
| drc | Interesting: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Testing/TestingInfo says "The actual rsync for Xubuntu alternate cd is: rsync -tzhhP rsync://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/xubuntu/daily/current/karmic-alternate-i386.iso" Really? Karmic? | 21:03 |
| charlie-tca | works as an example, doesn't it? It is a wiki, anyone can update up | 21:04 |
| charlie-tca | just change the karmic to natty | 21:04 |
| drc | I know it was in example form (and one would expect someone wanting to test would be able to figure it out), but still...3 generations old? :) | 21:07 |
| charlie-tca | some of us run out of time when it comes to the details | 21:09 |
| drc | Speaking of which, is the Xubuntu A3 install/upgrade working ?..tried for the past two days to install (Ubuntu A3, CD/LiveUSB and update-manager -d)...no love, no A3 | 21:10 |
| charlie-tca | It is best to use the daily images, but they have been broken all week | 21:11 |
| charlie-tca | A3 worked fine | 21:11 |
| drc | and it;s not like I have strange hardware (stock Dell I-1420n...Ubuntu pre-installed) | 21:11 |
| charlie-tca | Dell is always strange ;-) | 21:12 |
| charlie-tca | Hoping tomorrows images work | 21:12 |
| charlie-tca | The daily is working, not the daily-live, as far as I know | 21:12 |
| charlie-tca | !dailies | 21:12 |
| drc | yeah, but try to find a vendor with linux pre-installed (just to know the hardware worked) 3 years ago | 21:13 |
| charlie-tca | !daily | 21:13 |
| ubottu | Daily builds of the CD images of the current development version of Ubuntu are available at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 21:13 |
| charlie-tca | system76, dell | 21:13 |
| charlie-tca | now we have zareason, too | 21:13 |
| drc | 3 years ago (when I bought this syatem)? | 21:14 |
| drc | oh well, it's almost out of warrenty, so it'll break soon | 21:14 |
| drc | and Ubuntu has this nice Certification Page now..... | 21:15 |
| charlie-tca | yup, things just keep getting better | 21:16 |
| drc | much better than the days of a.out to elf (or was it elf to a.out...so long ago) | 21:17 |
| drc | and distro's with initials to names one could never pronounce | 21:18 |
| drc | oh well...</me stretches and hears the joints groan> | 21:19 |
| earthmeLon | I just installed Xubuntu on a laptop. Trying to add cairo to startup applications, but the Startup Manager is no where to be found. I am familiar with how to add programs to the startup list in Ubuntu, but not Xubuntu | 22:34 |
| drc | Applications>Xfce 4 Settings Manager>Session and Startup, as far as I know. | 22:36 |
| earthmeLon | Hey drc, that was where it was hiding :D Ty | 22:38 |
| drc | Took me a while to find it coming from GNOME too | 22:44 |

| gardenia | good day. can you recommend a good motherboard brand? | 23:33 |
| knome | gardenia, this isn't exactly a hardware support channel :) for that, i recommend #ubuntu-offtopic or some other hardware-oriented channel (##hardware maybe exists?) | 23:34 |
| gardenia | thanks il try that channel | 23:34 |
| knome | no problem | 23:35 |
