Joe-ka1gdqJust wondering if there is a way with Xubuntu 10.10 to have updates download and install automoatically. I have this computer being used by family memebers and I may not be able to keep it updated constantly. Is there a way to have it download updates and install them automatically???   Joe/Cape Cod14:39
charlie-tcayes, go into synaptic Package Manager, preferences, last tab and mark "update automatically"14:41
Joe-ka1gdqThanks.. I will check it as soon as the present updates are done loading.. it won't unlock until this package manager is completed14:45
Joe-ka1gdqWhat is the last tab called under Preferences.  I see Distribution, but there is no "Update Automatically14:49
charlie-tcaThat's because I lied to you14:51
charlie-tcasorry, under Repositories, Updates tab14:51
charlie-tcaLooks like you can install all security updates automatically, which are the most important updates.14:52
charlie-tcaI did intend to give bad information, but ...14:52
charlie-tcaI did NOT intend to give bad information, but ...14:52

XubuntuKrisI keep getting a strange error when updating via "sudo apt-get update"19:31
XubuntuKrisit says...19:31
XubuntuKrisFailed to fetch cdrom://Xubuntu 10.04.2 _Lucid Lynx_ - Release i386 (20110214.1)/dists/lucid/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs19:31
XubuntuKriswth is that?19:31
charlie-tcaThat says you added cdrom as a source in sources. Either through software software sources or synaptic Package Manager. Just go to Applications -> systems -> Synaptic Package Manager, settings, repositories and uncheck cdrom19:33
XubuntuKrisI'll check that out, thanks19:33
charlie-tcadannyd: add the shortcuts to Edit -> Preferences -> shortcuts in terminal19:35

tomekhis there any ambiance theme (from ubuntu) for xfce?20:50
TheSheep'ambiance'?20:52
Sysigtk theme works on xfce too, window borders propably can be found from xfce-look20:52
SysiTheSheep: name of that theme20:53
Sysi(just guessing what he wants, but Im good at it)20:53
TheSheepah, I thought it's some general feature of a theme20:55
TheSheeplike being dark or having washed colors20:55
alad_oI just changed my password and set xubuntu not to ask for password at login, now when i try to login i get taken back to the login screen automatically, like the password it tried was wrong21:35
alad_oAnyway i can change this without logging in to the gui21:36
TheSheepthat's not it21:44
TheSheepit doesn't use your password, it doesn't need it21:44
TheSheeplooks like it's crashing for some other reason21:44
TheSheepdid you change your window manager theme (for windows borders) by any chance?21:44
TheSheepalad_o: ^21:44
alad_oNope, all i have done recently was to change the password and ticked the box “do not ask for pass at login“21:46
alad_oI changed back the password from the console now, but the problem is still there21:47
TheSheepalad_o: it must be something else21:51
TheSheepalad_o: can you log in in text mode and check the file .xsessionerrors in your home directory?21:51
TheSheepyou can do it with 'less .xsessionerrors'21:51
alad_oWill check21:51
TheSheeplook at the end and see if there are any errors that would explain21:51
TheSheepit21:51
alad_oHmm, i can't view my home folder because its encrypted21:54
alad_oAlthough i am logged in, as far as i understand it21:55
TheSheepah21:55
TheSheepthat's why it cannot log in without password21:55
alad_oOk, is that good news?21:55
TheSheepjust disable the 'login without password' option21:56
alad_oYes but how do i do that from the console21:56
TheSheepI'm looking for it21:57
alad_oThanks i appreciate the help, I'm online with my phone now.. :(21:57
TheSheepalad_o: it's in /etc/gdm/custom.conf22:00
TheSheepAutomaticLoginEnable=true22:01
TheSheepchange that to false22:01
alad_oWill check22:01
TheSheepyou need sudo to do that22:01
MK``How can I change my GDM theme?22:03
alad_oIts actually set to false, but AutomaticLogin= is set to an old user i had earlier, which doesn't exist anymore22:04
alad_oShould i leave that blank perhaps?22:04
TheSheepstrange22:05
alad_oI'm rebooting22:06
alad_oLeft it blank22:06
TheSheepMK``: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=133656922:06
alad_oNope problem still there..22:07
TheSheepalad_o: gdm doesn't ask for password?22:08
alad_oI don't think its the auto login though, that's another setting in xubuntu, this is just “do not ask for password“ this setting doesn't auto login22:08
MK``It just threw errors at me TheSheep: No protocol specifiedNo protocol specified/nCannot open display: /nNo protocol specified/n(gnome-appearance-properties:5446): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0.022:09
alad_oMaybe its in the gdm.conf wherever that one might be, i will see if i find it22:10
TheSheepMK``: you need gui for it22:10
MK``I have discovered a more important error now heh22:14
MK``When I try to edit keyboard settings it says: "Could not launch 'Keyboard' /n Failed to execute child process "/usr/share/applications/keyboard.desktop" (Permission denied)"22:14
TheSheepMK``: what did you do?22:15
MK``oh nvm I executed the wrong program :)22:16
MK``sorry22:16
MK``What is the gui for gdm setup, TheSheep ?22:17
TheSheepMK``: I meant that you need to be logged in in the graphical environment22:19
MK``I am22:19
TheSheepit thinks you are not22:19
MK``How do I do this?22:19
uofm49426xubuntu i have a problem with screen closing and not waking up22:26
uofm49426its a x41 thinkpad22:26
uofm49426what do i need to install or do to fix this22:27
alad_oTheSheep, i really think this “don't ask for password at login“ is stored somewhere else, not in the custom.conf file, do you have any other ideas?22:32
uofm49426anyone have idea how to get my picture back after closing screen22:32
TheSheepalad_o: no, sorry22:32
TheSheepalad_o: btw, it should ask for password the second time around after it failed to login22:33
uofm49426i did ctrl alt 7 and 622:33
uofm49426i did ctrl alt f7 and f622:33
alad_oFunny thing just happened, i tried to mount the home folder from the console, and i could not do it with the password i login with, but i could do it with the one i changed it to earlier, very confusing. So right now i have 1 password for login and another to decrypt the home folder22:39
alad_oMaybe the problem can be fixed if i can change the later, which according to the console is called “login paraphrase“22:41
alad_oPassphrase22:41
uofm49426how do i fix laptop screen closing problem22:59
uofm49426screen don't come back22:59
