| ArisVer | Hello, it is quiet here. | 15:22 |
| ArisVer | Does anyone know how to remove Adblock Plus from Mozilla? | 15:26 |
| taylorc209 | select the tools menu, then add-ons. this will launch a window which allows you to remove add-ons like adblock plus | 15:34 |
| === Thermi is now known as thermi | ||
| === thermi is now known as Thermi | ||
| ArisVer | taylorc209: I can disable them (extensions) but i cannot uninstall them. Some do not have that option. It's grayed. | 15:50 |
| taylorc209 | adblock can also be installed as a regular package with apt. likely that how it was installed. one sec i'll try to dig up the name real quick | 15:51 |
| taylorc209 | what version are you running? | 15:52 |
| ArisVer | 3.6.16 , on ubuntu 10.10 btw. | 15:53 |
| taylorc209 | try "sudo apt-get remove xul-ext-adblock-plus" sorry I don't have a 10.10 box to try it on and i believe the package has changed names between versions (also can't find it available on my natty machine) | 15:57 |
| ArisVer | do you know where they are located, so i can remove them manually? and i'm on xubuntu on my netbook now :) | 15:59 |
| ArisVer | It worked. | 16:01 |
| ArisVer | taylorc209: Thanks, i'm removing them all one by one. | 16:10 |

| thecrazygm | had a quick question for, well anyone using the natty beta of xubuntu | 17:54 |
| thecrazygm | does it use pulseaudio? | 17:54 |
| thecrazygm | my soundcard/mic don't like pulseaudio | 17:54 |
| TheSheep | it does, and your soundcard/mic doesn't have anything to dislike, as pulseaudio doesn't talk to it directly | 17:58 |
| thecrazygm | well when i use anything that needs the mic it doesn't pickup | 17:58 |
| thecrazygm | if i tap it the bar moves 1 notch | 17:58 |
| thecrazygm | if i uninstall pulseaudio and use alsamixer | 17:59 |
| thecrazygm | everything is fine | 17:59 |
| TheSheep | install pavucontrol and set higher volume for the microphone | 17:59 |
| thecrazygm | i tried | 17:59 |
| thecrazygm | even mic boost | 17:59 |
| TheSheep | I can assure you that there is nothing wrong with pulseaudio | 18:00 |
| thecrazygm | it will not pickup anything but yelling directly into it or banging it | 18:00 |
| thecrazygm | even with the mic at 100% | 18:00 |
| TheSheep | are you sure it's the right channel for the microphone? | 18:00 |
| thecrazygm | well, i read i'm not the only one with the problem | 18:00 |
| thecrazygm | yes, right channel | 18:00 |
| thecrazygm | it may be my netbook | 18:01 |
| thecrazygm | as i'm not the first to complain | 18:01 |
| TheSheep | I had similar problems, but choosing the right devices and channels fixes it | 18:01 |
| TheSheep | padevchooser might help too | 18:02 |
| thecrazygm | that one i haven't tried | 18:02 |
| thecrazygm | fyi, i'm not new to linux at all, just the mic is getting to me | 18:03 |
| thecrazygm | i needed it for a business skype call | 18:03 |
| TheSheep | I know, I hated pulseaudio for a time too, when it was new and I had to learn it | 18:03 |
| thecrazygm | and it gave me a headache | 18:03 |
| TheSheep | now I have the same thing with grub2 | 18:03 |
| thecrazygm | well, i'll learn to love it then | 18:03 |
| thecrazygm | ha, yeah, i can relate to that one | 18:04 |
| TheSheep | I just have to bite the bullet and learn the third boot manager | 18:04 |
| TheSheep | I still can't understand what was wrong with lilo, it just worked | 18:04 |
| thecrazygm | only problem i ever had with lilo was HD > 8Gb | 18:05 |
| TheSheep | boot partition solves that | 18:05 |
| thecrazygm | right | 18:05 |
| thecrazygm | was about to say that | 18:05 |
| thecrazygm | but now most flavors want single partition and a swap | 18:05 |
| TheSheep | that whole progress is one great fraud scheme, I tell ya | 18:05 |
| thecrazygm | i miss the /boot / /home /usr | 18:05 |
| knome | not most flavors maybe, but most users want the / only | 18:06 |
| TheSheep | /usr mounted as read-only! | 18:06 |
| TheSheep | and noexec in /home | 18:06 |
| thecrazygm | well, i've had users that neede /home/uname/bin | 18:07 |
| thecrazygm | programming studies etc | 18:07 |
| thecrazygm | but yeah, for the most part | 18:07 |
| thecrazygm | noexec | 18:07 |
| TheSheep | \msg #xubuntu /var with noexec too | 18:07 |
| TheSheep | grr | 18:07 |
| TheSheep | wrong slash :P | 18:07 |
| thecrazygm | thanks for pointing me to the pa utilities | 18:08 |
| thecrazygm | i'll play with them | 18:08 |
| thecrazygm | i think i'll stick around to chat though | 18:08 |
| thecrazygm | but first i need a smoke break | 18:09 |

| thecrazygm | fingers are too big | 18:19 |
| TheSheep | thecrazygm: what am I going to say on a g1? | 18:19 |
| thecrazygm | i was gonna say, that's what i use, i've always loved irssi | 18:19 |
| thecrazygm | TheSheep: ? | 18:20 |

| TheSheep | fabulous | 18:23 |
| knome | no question about it | 18:24 |
| thecrazygm | hell of a flight bill though | 18:24 |
| TheSheep | you can take a train | 18:24 |
| thecrazygm | from the US? | 18:24 |
| TheSheep | not *directly* :D | 18:24 |
| thecrazygm | lol | 18:24 |
| thecrazygm | i've been meaning to go to germany soonish | 18:24 |
| thecrazygm | might just take a train | 18:25 |
| knome | thecrazygm, yeah, not directly, you can swim a big part of the trip | 18:25 |
| TheSheep | fosdem is in February | 18:25 |
| thecrazygm | that when my bday is | 18:25 |
| thecrazygm | that would rock | 18:25 |
| thecrazygm | do you know a better way to make bootable usb sticks | 18:27 |
| thecrazygm | i've been using unetbootin | 18:27 |
| TheSheep | system -> startup disk creator | 18:27 |
| thecrazygm | i'll be damned | 18:28 |
| thecrazygm | already there | 18:28 |

| thecrazygm | it's not often i get to speak to other intelligent people | 18:30 |
| thecrazygm | i might pop in more often | 18:31 |
| TheSheep | intelligent people on irc? | 18:33 |
| thecrazygm | yeah | 18:33 |
| TheSheep | sir, you are mistaken | 18:33 |
| thecrazygm | oxymoronic isn't it | 18:33 |
| thecrazygm | all right folk be back after the format | 18:33 |
| * drc wonders what he'd think about Eliza? | 18:34 | |
| TheSheep | drc: tell me more about what he'd think about Eliza? | 18:35 |
| drc | :) | 18:35 |
| drc | Woah...when did "windows buttons" really become (small) windows "buttons"? | 18:40 |
| === thermi is now known as Thermi | ||
| TheSheep | drc: what? | 18:55 |
| drc | In the panel, the "windows buttons" (last time I looked...been playing around with LMDE) were a button AND text. Unles I've missed something, the text is gone. | 18:59 |
| drc | Oh, nevermind :) | 19:00 |
| drc | Never remember having to add the "show button labels: before... | 19:01 |
| * drc needs more tea...he's losing it...too many distros in too few day | 19:01 | |
| drc | Ah...I <do> remember...must have unclicked the "show button labels" when I got rid of the "show handle"...getting old, tired and click happy. | 19:04 |
| drc | bah | 19:04 |

| thecrazygm | still can't get pulse audio to use my mic | 20:36 |
| MK`` | does Xubuntu have its own log file viewer or does it use GNOME's? | 20:43 |
| borja_ | hola | 20:44 |
| charlie-tca | MK``: I don't think I use a log viewer, I just go to /var/log in thunar and view the logs in mousepad | 20:48 |
| thecrazygm | gah, updates need to restart | 20:48 |
| thecrazygm | brb | 20:48 |
| MK`` | Ah. | 20:48 |
| charlie-tca | OTOH, I think when I did use the log viewer in Ubuntu, it was difficult for me to use. | 20:49 |
| MK`` | is it gnome-system-log? | 20:50 |
| charlie-tca | is what? | 20:52 |
| charlie-tca | the log viewer in gnome? | 20:52 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know | 20:52 |
| MK`` | in Xubuntu | 20:52 |
| MK`` | if it comes with one | 20:52 |
| charlie-tca | I don't think it comes with one by default | 20:52 |
| MK`` | Ah | 20:52 |
| einseenai | guys, is gallium3D driver gonna be dafault for xubuntu 11.04, too? | 21:25 |
| knome | gallium3d? | 21:26 |
| charlie-tca | gallium is the latest nvidia driver, and yes, if it is default in Ubuntu, it will be in Xubuntu | 21:26 |
| einseenai | charlie-tca, but this driver is also used for radeon, isn't it? | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | I think it is, a non-propriety, nvidia and ati 3d driver | 21:28 |
| einseenai | thank u -) | 21:28 |
| einseenai | is xubuntu beta already available? | 21:28 |
| einseenai | yes, it is, sorry | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | no problem | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | I can't get to the url right now, but yes, it is. | 21:30 |
| charlie-tca | 11.04 final in one week! | 21:31 |
| einseenai | charlie-tca, i guess some nice features to come )) | 21:52 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 22:02 |
| charlie-tca | Xfce 4.8, with editable menus! | 22:03 |
| charlie-tca | gmusicbrowser, a great wallpaper | 22:03 |
| einseenai | charlie-tca, i'll have a look today )) i use ubuntu maverick, but i need a second system, either ubuntu or suse, but i'm not gonna use unity, so i think xubuntu might good variant | 22:06 |
| charlie-tca | You do know you can use classic-desktop which is like maverick, right? | 22:07 |
| charlie-tca | You just change the session at login, in Ubuntu. It will default to the session you pick after the first login | 22:08 |
| einseenai | charlie-tca, well i tried 11.04 livecd, i only saw fallback mode. but dunno. | 22:09 |
| charlie-tca | that's because with the live cd, you have to logout, hit the name, change the session, then hit enter on the password | 22:09 |
| einseenai | yup, i know, i just didn't try )) | 22:10 |
| einseenai | btw, is the new opensource broadcom driver to come, or i will have to use STA? | 22:10 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know. Some people have to use STA | 22:11 |
| einseenai | ok | 22:11 |
| charlie-tca | on the live cd, check in system -> Additional Drivers | 22:11 |
| einseenai | yup )) | 22:11 |
| einseenai | so exaile is no more default player, right? | 22:12 |
| charlie-tca | right | 22:14 |
| charlie-tca | we now have parole and gmusicbrowser | 22:14 |
| einseenai | exaile was the best for me, but it doesn't have stable crossfading mode. what a pity... | 22:16 |
| charlie-tca | I did get a cd to play in parole, so I guess it will work | 22:20 |
| charlie-tca | knome is about the most knowledgeable person we got when it comes to playing music and the different types of files | 22:20 |
| Deithrian | How to change keyboard input in Xubuntu? | 22:36 |
| Deithrian | I installed my language from settings and i have it in keyboard layouts | 22:36 |
| Deithrian | i have iBus or something as method | 22:37 |
| Deithrian | but when i press the shortcut it doesnt change the layout | 22:37 |
| charlie-tca | You might have to define the shortcut each login. | 22:37 |
| Deithrian | i can only change it if i go to settings manager Keyboard and chose there the Layout? | 22:38 |
| charlie-tca | That is a reported bug in Xfce | 22:38 |
| Deithrian | oh | 22:38 |
| Deithrian | it's confusing | 22:38 |
| charlie-tca | I agree | 22:38 |
| Deithrian | i have iBus i think icon on the taskbar | 22:38 |
| Deithrian | and there from the input languages i can only chose Chinese which i didn't even install :) | 22:39 |
| Deithrian | oh well thanks :) | 22:39 |
| charlie-tca | I don't even get that choice. I get the keyboard I installed only | 22:39 |
| Deithrian | are you on Natty? | 22:40 |
| charlie-tca | (installed during the installation, not later) | 22:40 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 22:40 |
| Deithrian | weird | 22:40 |
| MK`` | ibus-setup? | 22:48 |
| Deithrian | well i can't tell | 22:50 |
| Deithrian | just clicked on the input methods everywhere and tried to enable things haha | 22:50 |
| Deithrian | no idea what i have done :) | 22:50 |
| Deithrian | anyway disabled everything and now i'm switching from the Kayboard Layout thing | 22:50 |
| vinky_ | I have tried the 11.04 beta. it seems like if xfce4-panel's autohide function doesnt work properly | 22:58 |
| vinky_ | any way I can fix that? | 22:58 |
| charlie-tca | What seems wrong with it? | 22:58 |
| vinky_ | it hides it even though I have disabled it | 22:59 |
| charlie-tca | Did you logout after disabling auto-hide? | 22:59 |
| Deithrian | vinky_ are you sure you disabled Panel2 and not Panel1? :) | 23:00 |
| einseenai | hat? | 23:01 |
| vinky_ | charlie-tca, do I need to do that? I never needed that before. enabling it moves the lower edge of maximized windows down as I expect | 23:02 |
| charlie-tca | You said it still hides after disabling it. I would logout and log back in then. Most of the user area changes require a logout to take effect properly | 23:02 |
| vinky_ | if I disable it, the panel is only seen if I hover over it, else I see the background instead of the panel | 23:03 |
| charlie-tca | That sounds like a bug due to the fading, it is probably theme related. | 23:04 |
| charlie-tca | You could file a bug using ubuntu-bug xubuntu-artwork | 23:04 |
| charlie-tca | It should be visible full time | 23:05 |
| vinky_ | yeah exactly | 23:05 |
| vinky_ | brb | 23:09 |
