| PatrickC_Pre2 | does git come pre-installed? | 01:05 |
| knome | no | 01:14 |
| PatrickC_Pre2 | ok | 01:15 |
| PatrickC_Pre2 | thanks | 01:15 |
| knome | no problem | 01:15 |
| PatrickC_Pre2 | xubuntu is nice | 01:21 |
| PatrickC_Pre2 | but it runs a little slow | 01:22 |
| psycho_oreos | maybe its yer computer specs that are a little above the minimum requirements | 01:25 |
| patrickc-ubuntu | i have 4gb available ram | 01:27 |
| patrickc-ubuntu | but i am allowing 1gb i believe | 01:27 |
| patrickc-ubuntu | im using it in a vbox | 01:28 |
| === surreal7z_ is now known as surreal7z | ||
| psycho_oreos | 1GB should be plenty in theory. Other possible reasons may include video driver under vbox | 01:56 |

| brothersome | How does Xubuntu perform on a PanelPC with 4 GB, any experience here | 11:12 |
| ikonia | bergasche: same as any PC with a similar spec | 11:27 |
| ikonia | should be very reasonable as 4GB is massiver over kill for such a light window manager | 11:28 |
| brothersome | Does the evtouch driver works good in xubuntu? | 11:28 |
| brothersome | I have a panel PC with 1 GB RAM and 4 GB flash | 11:28 |
| brothersome | Ram should be enough for Ubuntu --- Expecting below 300 MB | 11:29 |

| Xubuntunoob | i want to be able to access my computer from the internet | 15:25 |
| Xubuntunoob | do i have to install a program ? | 15:26 |
| Sysi | unless you have very fast internet connection, you can't really use graphical remote desktop | 15:26 |
| Sysi | vnc is also unsecure, you would need to use it through ssh-pipe | 15:27 |
| Xubuntunoob | how do i do that? | 15:28 |
| Xubuntunoob | im sorry if my questions are newbie-ish | 15:30 |
| Xubuntunoob | im kind of new to this | 15:30 |

| subspider | hello | 17:48 |
| subspider | i need to make firefox able to open java | 17:49 |
| subspider | applet | 17:49 |
| Sysi | !java | 17:49 |
| ubottu | To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu on 10.04 LTS and newer, see http://tinyurl.com/2ffg7cc - For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 17:49 |
| subspider | i can't do it | 17:49 |

| chudy_michef | hi. xubuntu gui stopped responding to mouse clicks while I was using the shell. i tried exiting the shell, now not even the 'off' switch works. i would turn it off at the wall, but it's running on battery power. any suggestions? | 21:25 |
| Sysi | by shell you mean ctrl alt F1-6 terminals? | 21:26 |
| chudy_michef | I mean a terminal window - I opened it by right-clicking in a folder. | 21:27 |
| Sysi | altgr printscreen K will force logout | 21:28 |
| charlie-tca | hold the power button down for at least 10 seconds usually works too | 21:28 |
| Sysi | killing xorg is nicer than killing entire system | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | true | 21:29 |
| chudy_michef | I just tried the first option. SOMETHING's happening (in that the mouse pointer has stopped moving, and I can hear the hard drive working). | 21:29 |
| chudy_michef | Aha! It logged out. | 21:30 |
| chudy_michef | I wonder why that happened in the first place. I was just using LaTeX from the terminal when I noticed I couldn't click on anything outside the terminal window. | 21:31 |
| chudy_michef | Thanks. | 21:34 |
