[04:17] 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] oh woops.... [04:17] http://screencast.com/t/GCZ0yYDm [04:19] maybe i can get some help as to what i'm doing wrong, or not doing . . . [04:41] curry, What version of Xubuntu are you running? [04:58] 10.10? [04:58] cody-somerville: [04:59] okay, i got the theme, but i don have transparency . . . [04:59] curry, Do you have the compositor enabled? [04:59] i don't know what a compositor is [05:00] curry, Applications > Settings > Xfce4 Settings Manager [05:01] curry, Click on 'Window Manager Tweaks' and then the 'Compositor' tab. [05:01] curry, Is 'Enable display compositing' checked? [05:01] there's nothing in window manager tweaks [05:05] cody-somerville: http://screencast.com/t/frIyvisCJl [05:06] curry, If you click 'Overview' and click on 'Appearance', does anything show up? [05:06] yeah [05:08] Can you try going back to the 'Window Manager Tweaks'? [05:09] blank still [05:10] iḿ running this in a vm, i'm thinking that might make an impact . . . [05:12] 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] alright thanks [05:19] cody-somerville: i think it's related to the theme [08:26] ablomen welke irc client gebruik je? [08:27] xchat [08:28] je zou /set irc_join_delay 20 kunnen proberen [08:29] why? [08:29] dan heb je je cloak direct [08:29] nu join je voor ident by services [08:29] freenode needs some time [08:30] standard 2 is often to "short" [08:31] hah ja thanks, goede tip [08:31] nop ツ === Rak is now known as Rak44 [12:00] 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?

[18:01] Deet`: is it perhaps encrypted? [18:01] not to my knowledge. it's brand new [18:06] sounds just broken [18:07] try formatting it to fat32 [18:07] I have 100 US dollars worth of USB flash drives here that will only format FAT 16 or FAT32 [18:08] gpart won't lemt me do anything to it [18:08] let* [18:08] if creating partition table don't make gparted to see it right, formatting doesn't matter [18:08] gparted won't create the partition table either === Thermi_ is now known as Thermi [18:08] attempting to do an install to the disk [18:09] sounds like my broken stick [18:09] yup [18:09] exchange or replace [18:09] i'm in Belize. there is no exchange [18:10] Deet`: Did you try the "Erase Disk" button in the Startup Disk Creator?

Again? [18:11] there is no erase disk button [18:12] [12:11] i tried the USB disk creator and it just says i need to format the drive [18:12] [12:11] i click format, nothing happens [18:13] Deet`: Are you using the X/Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator (Applications>System>Startup Disk Creator) or something else?

[18:17] depending on the application, gksu or sudo [18:17] thx [18:18] oh well, gonna give hiram's a shot then [18:40] Xubuntu community meeting in #ubuntu-meeting in 20 minutes. Everyone is invited to attend. Agenda is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings [19:39] charlie-tca: Well, that (community meeting) was interesting [19:39] Thank you [19:40] We try to keep everyone informed through that meeting, and get people actively involvedk [19:40] These are weekly (and announced here)? [19:41] yep [20:40] Anyone available? [20:41] !anyone [20:41] 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] 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 to make it known [20:41] *xubuntu [20:42] How do i get passed that point? [21:03] 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? [21:04] works as an example, doesn't it? It is a wiki, anyone can update up [21:04] just change the karmic to natty [21:07] 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? :) [21:09] some of us run out of time when it comes to the details [21:10] 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 [21:11] It is best to use the daily images, but they have been broken all week [21:11] A3 worked fine [21:11] and it;s not like I have strange hardware (stock Dell I-1420n...Ubuntu pre-installed) [21:12] Dell is always strange ;-) [21:12] Hoping tomorrows images work [21:12] The daily is working, not the daily-live, as far as I know [21:12] !dailies [21:13] yeah, but try to find a vendor with linux pre-installed (just to know the hardware worked) 3 years ago [21:13] !daily [21:13] 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] system76, dell [21:13] now we have zareason, too [21:14] 3 years ago (when I bought this syatem)? [21:14] oh well, it's almost out of warrenty, so it'll break soon [21:15] and Ubuntu has this nice Certification Page now..... [21:16] yup, things just keep getting better [21:17] much better than the days of a.out to elf (or was it elf to a.out...so long ago) [21:18] and distro's with initials to names one could never pronounce [21:19] oh well... [22:34] 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 [22:36] Applications>Xfce 4 Settings Manager>Session and Startup, as far as I know. [22:38] Hey drc, that was where it was hiding :D Ty [22:44] Took me a while to find it coming from GNOME too === knome_ is now known as knome [23:33] good day. can you recommend a good motherboard brand? [23:34] 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] thanks il try that channel [23:35] no problem
