[01:05] Anyone here experienced in the terminal on nUbuntu? [01:30] i got problems === michael is now known as Guest47630 [01:36] alçgum brazuka aki? [01:36] algum brasileiro nessa porra? [01:38] !br [01:38] Por favor, use #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Para entrar no canal por favor faça "/join #ubuntu-br" sem as aspas. Para a comunidade local portuguêsa, use #ubuntu-pt. Obrigado. [02:00] does anyone get startup on xubuntu when all windows show up on the top left with no titlebar? [02:01] Any Menus? [02:03] yeah the menus show up [02:03] but i can't move them around [02:03] and it only happens sometimes [02:04] when i reboot it works again most of the time [02:04] Try < xfwm4 --replace > in a terminal [02:05] just tried it, my screen flashed [02:05] no change? [02:06] it's working right now, but it has already been working this session, but it has been a consistent problem [02:07] i guess i'll have to see with time if it continues to happen [02:07] thanks, another problem i have is that when i suspend my computer and bring it back, my soundcard no longer works until i reboot my computer [02:08] no idea, I've never had problems with sound [02:09] it's an audiophile 192 soundcard [02:09] i think it uses the envy24pt/ht driver [02:15] man thunar is laggy [02:17] it can be, oftenly if it involves lots of thumbnails and selecting [02:19] i had to install another file manager to do that, particularly fond to emelfm2 [02:20] Soupermanito: is that in the repositories? === `mOOse` is now known as m00se === cpatrick08 is now known as cpatrick008 [02:26] i love xubuntu it is much better than gnome 3 and UNITY!!!!!!! === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [02:28] cpatrick008: yes. yes it is. [02:41] charlie-tca, yes, yes it is [02:46] bash: ./anonbot.php: /usr/bin/php: bad interpreter: No such file or directory [02:46] wat [02:48] >mffw PHP isn't installed [02:52] why not just use pcmanfm? [02:57] pcmanfm is a single pane file manager; emelfm2 is two-pane side by side [02:59] also emelfm2 has no dependcies added for Xubuntu; pcmanfm requires about half a dozen more files be installed [03:00] s/dependcies/dependencies [03:10] still, wouldn't that help with bin-bash's problem with lagginess? [03:11] When I start it from terminal it doesn't happen [03:12] bin_bash: whats lagging? [03:12] thunar [03:12] bin_bash: freezes up for ike 10-12sec? [03:13] yah [03:13] not trying to dog xfce (i like it) but thats why i switched to lxde [03:13] but when i load the directory in terminal and then open thunar it doesn;t [03:14] isn't lxde kde's ugly littlebrother? [03:15] Guest47630: not sure here, I thought pcmanfm had a lag issue also [03:16] bin_bash: any network connections? [03:16] charlie-tca: no [03:16] lxde can look pretty good if you configure it, kde is just wasteful [03:16] hm, I have discussions in Xfce about the lag, they are trying to pinpoint the issue [03:17] It has something to do with gvfs trying to find any network connections, but beyond that it has not been pinned down yet [03:17] ah ok [03:18] KM0201: gimme a screenshot of how you have lxde running [03:18] bin_bash: quite the opposite... lxde is awesome. [03:20] bin_bash: http://imagebin.org/152905 [03:20] you just love that bottom panel lol [03:20] lol [03:21] i'm not sure how your skippy script would work though [03:21] i usually just middle click desktop, and choose the window i want.; [03:22] bin_bash: http://imagebin.org/152906 [03:22] works a bit like that [03:25] i think my next ui is going to be openbox [03:25] too bad lubuntu is only 64 bit but glad you can get the pae kernel [03:25] bin_bash: i think lxde is based openbox (could be wrong) [03:25] cpatrick008: uh, no.. it has a 32bit version [03:25] ^ [03:25] lol [03:26] cpatrick008: http://paste.ubuntu.com/606353/ [03:26] i ment only 32 bit not 64 [03:27] cpatrick008: i dunno bout that, don't need/use 64bit on the laptop [03:27] KM0201: My next distro is either crunchbang or archbang [03:27] bin_bash: wouldn't recommend crunchbang (even though I like it)... and i probably wouldn't recommend archbang [03:28] i'm definitely installing archbang on the crappy laptop i'm getting [03:28] just cuz you're not l33t [03:28] LOL [03:28] >l33t [03:28] lol [03:28] you should try lubuntu. [03:28] no i want something other than ubuntu [03:28] you might find you like it.. just use the live cd a few days, see how it goes... if you don't like it, you've only wasted a cd [03:28] dude i have to do a cd and usb. rmemeber? [03:28] * drc thinks real 1337'ers use netBSD on everything they own, including toasters [03:29] oh thats right [03:29] use usb so you dont waste a cd [03:29] drc: you mayb e right. [03:29] drc: I use netBSD on my vacuum. [03:29] umad? [03:29] cpatrick008: she has a jacked up mac, she has to use both [03:29] ok [03:34] hi, my video players (parole and totem) crashed when i tried to play a video, so i installed vlc. I managed to play the videos, but they have no sound. does someone knows how to fix it? [03:34] So, you don't think i'm 1337 enough to use #! [03:34] i installed gstreamer but it gave no help [03:35] hmm [03:36] video but no sound, eh [03:36] yep [03:36] i can play them on vlc. i managed to do it by changing the preferences [03:36] lldavid: install pavucontrol and turn the controls on [03:37] bin_bash: no, i think #! sucks [03:37] :0 [03:37] charlie-tca: i have it installed [03:37] :O why!? [03:38] lldavid: did sound work in parole? [03:38] no [03:38] ok [03:38] parole just crashes [03:38] hm [03:38] and video works in vlc? [03:38] vlc plays the video [03:38] does sound work elsewhere? [03:38] but has no sound [03:38] works fine on browser [03:39] and sys sounds [03:39] pidgin, etc... [03:39] okay [03:39] do you have a music player installed [03:39] haven't downloaded any mp3 yet [03:39] well i have banshee [03:39] isntalled by default [03:39] try playing a song on banshee [03:40] sorry [03:40] its gmusic player [03:40] ok [03:40] not banshee [03:40] whaterver it is [03:40] try playing soemthing [03:40] ok [03:43] no sound [03:43] on mp3 files [03:44] tried gmusic and nothing [03:44] no sound [03:44] okay [03:44] open up a terminal [03:44] type alsamixer [03:45] i'm on it [03:52] everything is set up on max [03:56] hmm [03:56] okay [03:57] so. wut to do, sir? [03:57] Sir?....She works for a living :) [03:58] LOL [03:58] lol [03:58] go to multimedia > pulseaudio volume control [03:58] yup [03:59] u a she? O_o [03:59] Yes. [03:59] I know... shocking and all. [04:00] But I seem to manage. [04:00] just don't let her start "raging". [04:00] lol [04:00] LOL [04:00] lol [04:00] I think my concussion is healing, KM0201 [04:00] lol, well thats a relief. [04:00] i couldn't take being sworn at anymore [04:00] lol [04:00] ahaha [04:00] Not nice to say I can't handle #! or Arch! though [04:01] sorry for the "sir" i really didn't expected [04:01] so i tried fwm4 --replace [04:01] bin_bash: oh i think you could handle them... they're just such a PITA. === michael is now known as Guest14240 [04:01] so wut now [04:01] ? [04:01] it fixed my problem of not having the title bar [04:01] but do i have to use fwm4 --replace everytime? [04:01] what exactly does it do? [04:01] lldavid: multimedia > pulseaudio volume control [04:02] is everything squared away? [04:02] everything is maxed [04:03] hmm [04:03] perhaps you're missing libs [04:03] like i said before, i have sound on other applications [04:03] !info xubuntu-restricted-extras [04:03] xubuntu-restricted-extras (source: ubuntu-restricted-extras): Commonly used restricted packages for Xubuntu. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 43 (natty), package size 3 kB, installed size 36 kB [04:04] i installed gstreamer and nothing changed [04:05] lldavid: and its only one app that has no sound? [04:05] sorry, haven't really been following.. [04:06] lldavid, what warning do you get by runing vlc or other media players fromt a terminal? [04:06] Right but if your music player isn't working, then it might be a library issue [04:07] KM0201: totem and parole crash, no sound on vlc or gmusic, but sound everytwhere else [04:07] that is weird.. VLC has had some problematic issues anyway in 11.04 [04:08] almost sounds like a code issue. [04:08] i haven't tried to run it on terminal [04:08] i'll try [04:09] VLC media player 1.1.9 The Luggage (revision exported) [04:09] Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_ADDRESS") [04:09] Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_BUS_TYPE") [04:09] [0x9bd18fc] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface.

[04:27] bin_bash: I don't know how to answer that... So I believe I'm not [04:27] (?) [04:27] wehn you start your computer you go to the login screen and login that way, yes? [04:27] yes [04:27] okay [04:27] hmmm [04:27] just automatic [04:28] try opening synaptic from the menu and tell me if you get an error [04:28] lldavid, try runing parole whit sudo [04:28] or gksudo [04:28] alt+F2 >gksudo parole [04:29] synaptic opened just ok [04:29] ill try to sudo the parole [04:29] Hey everyone, I've setup a media pc (xubuntu) at my apartment for remote viewing via x11vnc, and since adding "x11vnc -forever -thread -safer" to the end of my /etc/gdm/Init file, (setup for autologin) I get blank screens on both the media pc and on a tightVNC connection into it [04:29] running a clean install of xubuntu 11.04 [04:31] any ideas on how to fix it? lol [04:31] the parole opens just fine it it's the program alone. it crashes only when i try to open a file (vid or music) [04:31] have you tried right clicking the file and then choosing which program to open with? [04:31] also have you tried opening the file with parole using the terminal? [04:31] yes [04:32] to open with the others i tried that [04:32] totem and vlc [04:32] i tried [04:32] on terminal too [04:32] but it's just the same [04:33] okay try this [04:33] open a terminal [04:33] then do parole /path/to/file [04:34] for example: parole ~/Videos/RuckaRucka/"Rucka Rucka Ali - Ching Chang Ch... (SD).mp4" [04:35] hmm. [04:35] interesting path [04:35] indeed [04:35] i'll try [04:36] The program 'parole' received an X Window System error. [04:36] This probably reflects a bug in the program. [04:36] The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'. [04:36] (Details: serial 53 error_code 11 request_code 132 minor_code 19) [04:36] (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; [04:36] that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. [04:36] To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line [04:36] option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful [04:36] backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) [04:37] can't you use a pastebin? [04:37] thats annoying [04:37] lol [04:39] like that? http://pastebin.com/6YpUpvct [04:39] yes, like that [04:40] i didn't even knew that this existed. LOL [04:40] looksl ike your install is al ljacked up [04:41] can i fix it with the installation cd? the repair option? [04:41] or will i have to redo the entire thing? [04:41] lldavid: if it were me, i'd re-do it.. but thats just me... [04:41] not sure what went wrong [04:43] oh snap [04:43] it can't be that bad [04:43] i'll redo the entire thing [04:43] no it's not THAT bad [04:44] it's just kinda annoying [04:45] i dunno, i redo linux all the time, doesn't bother me [04:45] how do i do it like that? [04:45] what do you mean? [04:46] i understood that i would have to format the entire thing and redo all the installation from the start [04:47] so when you said that you do it all the time i got confused. [04:47] oh [04:47] you do it by not formating and just redoing the installation process? [04:47] usually what i do. [04:48] i go through the normal install process [04:48] how? [04:48] i don't mess w/ swap [04:48] well, first [04:48] when it comes to the partition stage i choose the "manual" option [04:48] then i delete the old / (and in your case, if you have /home on a separate partition, i'd probably delete that as well) [04:48] then i just recreate them... and continue w/ the installation [04:48] piece of cake [04:49] i had my main pc fried last weekend [04:49] fun [04:49] so i'm using this slower one [04:49] that i have [04:50] i used ubuntu 10.04 on the main [04:50] and it worked just fine and fast and dreamy [04:50] but in this new one [04:50] well [04:50] i decided to use the xubuntu [04:50] ubuntu is bloated [04:51] maybe you should try a lightweight system [04:51] for it's cleaner and lighter [04:51] until i get my new pc [04:52] i thought of using this secondary with xubuntu [04:52] i never thought it would be this harsh [04:52] LOL [04:52] * KM0201 says Lubuntu for the win! [04:53] well [04:53] thank you all [04:53] really [04:53] thanks for your time [04:53] and trouble [04:53] i'll try to redo the installation like you said [04:53] yeah [04:54] but i just need to sleep now [04:54] lol [04:54] i just wanted to watch the new episode of game of thrones [04:54] is that too much, god? [04:55] am i asking for the world here? [04:55] thank you all [04:55] for your kindness [04:55] no prob [04:55] good luck [04:56] bye folks [04:56] having fun [04:58] tons [04:58] got bored and did this [04:58] https://pastee.org/64gwp [05:03] man, you ever talk to someone, who is obviously so full of BS, you have trouble not laughing at them? [05:04] KM0201, this is for you: http://bit.ly/jyFcy9 [05:04] lol.. [05:04] You've helped me and others (like the lldavid fellow) .. you deserve a spread like that... [05:04] * KM0201 doesn't eat stuff like that. [05:04] but you have to get the milk [05:05] u kidding? those look totally swallowable [05:05] lol, i didn't help lldavid all that much... bin_bash helped him more than i did. [05:05] Seqis: my one vice, for my sweet tooth, is jolly ranchers [05:06] i freaking love those things [05:06] ok bin_bash then this is for you .. http://bit.ly/kkdGd7 [05:06] I took the bite out of that heart-cookie [05:06] Awwww [05:06] <3 [05:06] isn't that the gummy candy [05:07] yus [05:08] jolly ranchers are hard candy [05:08] they're look, little squares of awesome sauce [05:08] *like [05:08] you can pull a tooth out [05:08] trynig to get that off your teeth [05:08] yeah, but.. it'd be worth it [05:08] lol [05:08] yeah, you have to brush when you eat them [05:09] eww [05:09] like brushing your teeth after drinking orange juice [05:09] * KM0201 hates orange juice [05:09] i haven't have OJ in years actually [05:10] just not my fav [05:10] i do like it on occasion [05:10] i really prefer lemon juice [05:10] Seqis, you mean like drinking orange juice after brushing your teeth [05:11] either way.. it's wrong [05:11] indeed [05:17] nighters folks, i'm tired [10:10] francais ici?

[10:10] !fr [10:10] !fr [10:10] ha! [10:11] i was first! [10:11] not [10:11] :P [10:11] on my end i was :P [10:11] no french people here? [10:11] xubuntu032, this is an english channel, even if there was french people [10:11] j'habite en france mais mais je ne parle bien la langue [10:11] no this is english only, #ubuntu-fr should know about xubuntu too [10:11] i need help [10:11] starkid, you too, english only [10:12] xubuntu032, you can ask here in english or in #ubuntu-fr in french [10:12] l [10:12] i need help [10:12] xubuntu032, just ask your question [10:14] I need help with my numpad...Shift+Numlock is supposed to toggle back and forth between typing numbers and moving the pointer, but it doesn't work at all. [10:15] pressing Shift+Numlock has the same effect as pressing Numlock alone [11:22] hello, im just trying out xubuntu 11.04. Is there a way to change the netowrk proxy to automatically detect? [11:26] i cant find any settings to do with proxies at all [11:42] starkid: i thought just pushing numlock toggles "numlock" already? never heard of shift+numlock tbh [11:49] ochosi, it came up several times when I googled the issue [11:49] numlock does toggle numlock, shift+numlock supposedly allows one to move the browsing caret with the numpad [11:50] i see, guess then i can't help (my notebook doesn't have a numblock) [11:52] thanks anyways [12:07] I'm new. I want to know wheather we can install and run gnome and kde software like amorok and rhytmbox in xubuntu? [12:08] skumara: yes, you can [12:08] thank you [12:28] hello guys, is this the place where i can get support for xubuntu ? [12:28] yes === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [14:20] can xubuntu be configured to work with a proxy script. My uni uses a script for the netowrk. [14:25] guerilla: sry, never used proxy, but i assume you can set it (at least app-specific) in firefox [14:25] maybe there's also a global setting in the network manager [14:28] Has someone any experience in getting bluray to work? I'm currently stuck with DumpHD which doesn't work... I just want to watch the br i just purchased... [14:28] i cant locate network manager, any hints [14:29] guerilla: network manager is the programme that manages your connections and sits in the system tray (by default the right upper corner) [14:33] I have looked through that before and it doesnt seem to have proxy settings in it. === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [15:36] nicofs [15:36] !bluray [15:36] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [16:53] if i go and install another window manager, say lxde, how can i NOT make it the default wm and just be able to run it when i want? [16:54] at the login screen, you select which desktop to run :) [16:54] :P okay [16:54] and if you have a System > Login Screen [16:54] you can select the default one there [16:55] but you can always switch between them whenever you want when logged in [16:55] kk i knew that [16:55] :D [16:56] ok, so i install lxde, or lubuntu-desktop? [16:56] wait ill ask on #lubuntu , if it exists [16:56] do lubuntu-desktop --no-instal-recommends [16:56] it does [16:56] one sec, typoed that [16:57] yeah [16:57] sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends [16:59] lxde means just lxde, -desktop also apps they've chosen [17:08] quit [17:41] guys, why is it that everytime i turn on the system, it always asks me for the keyring password so it can connect to a wifi? how do i disable or automatically connect to a wifi without the keyring password [17:41] gharz: do you have network manager set up to auto connect to wifi? [17:42] KM0201: i use the default network manager [17:42] ok... do you have it set up to auto connect to wifi when you start up? [17:42] KM0201: yes, i already did. ticked the connect to the network automatically [17:43] and the user that i'm using is the default user (the user which has been created during the installation) [17:43] automatic login? [17:43] gharz: well, just to make sure, make sure the "available to all users" is available on that tab. [17:43] Sysi: probably.. but i was gonna get tot hat. [17:44] i've never been asked for my keyring password (but i disabled it.. so.. go figure) [17:44] KM0201: ok. let me do it === xGrind is now known as xGrind-OFF [17:44] KM0201: i can't find that option now whenever i edit the connection [17:45] KM0201: i think i have to delete the account and re-create it [17:46] gharz: no... go to edit connections, then clcik the wireless tab.. highlight your default network, click edit.. and bottom of the first tab, it says "available to all users" [17:47] gharz: you might also want to edit the "wired " connection, and disable "connect automatically" on it (even though it does connect automatically even if unchecked)... reason being.. for some reason for me, the OS would spend a lot of time looking for a wired connection, before finally looking fo rmy default connection, so unchecking that, made that prob go away. [17:47] hmm [17:49] KM0201: yes... it worked!!!!! tanks so much!!!!! [17:50] thanks!! [17:50] no prob. [17:50] gharz: another thing.... [17:50] gharz: you might also want to edit the "wired " connection, and disable "connect automatically" on it (even though it does connect automatically even if unchecked)... reason being.. for some reason for me, the OS would spend a lot of time looking for a wired connection, before finally looking fo rmy default connection, so unchecking that, made that prob go away. [17:50] KM0201: nice tip!!! [17:50] thanks [17:50] i'll definitely do that [17:52] KM0201: thanks for the tip!!! you're a star! [17:52] thanks! [17:52] np, glad it all worked out [17:55] KM0201: cool, i haven't thought of those [17:55] Sysi: thought of those...? [17:56] solution/workaround/performance tweak [17:56] i didn't really think of it as any of the above. [17:56] would you also have something for "connection closed" popup that refuses to disappear? [17:57] really, when you think about it... if you have the wired tab checked as "connect automatically" it's only trying to do what you are telling it to do... so it looks for a wired connection for about a minute or so, then moves on and connects to the wireless... [17:57] Sysi: you could probably disable libnotify on that, but... honestly not sure on that one [17:57] using lxde, the notification has an X on it, so i can close it. [17:59] if i used notify-osd instead of xfce4-notifyd it propably would work [18:02] probably [18:03] i'm not rea sure what lxde uses.. [18:04] talking about that, how do i edit the osd notification to be shorter, they last like 30 seconds or something [18:05] hmm [18:05] settings dialog [18:05] i've set them to be like 3 seconds :) [18:33] hello [18:35] o/ [18:36] i have a problem: I'm on Xubuntu 11.04 and youtube movies are freezing every 5 sec. [18:37] both chromium and ff [18:38] jf_: probably mainly because the linux version of flash, is inferior to the windows version... 64 or 32bit? [18:39] x64 , if i turn on window manager compositor the problem dissapear [18:40] yup.. :) [18:40] problems w/ the compositor, is what made me switch to lxde... disabling it fixed some strange behaviors... [18:45] taking off hardware acceleration would be worth a shot [19:17] hi everyone. I'm having lots of problems with flash. whenever I try to watch a youtube video Firefox gets stuck. I have Flash 10.2 r159 installed on Xubuntu 11.4. anyone else having similar problems? [19:19] mmm do you have the proper video drivers installed? [19:19] i had a similar problem and it fixed reinstalling the drivers [19:23] Hezy: 32 or 64bit? try first taking off hardware acceleration [19:32] you know what i dislike, evince opening pdf's out of the screen [19:34] Hello, I wanted to install Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwal but after install the system boots with a blackscreen, will Kubuntu boot with a screen that i can see? [19:34] rickvanhelvert, this is the Xubuntu channel, but it's most probable that either xubuntu or kubuntu will not work either (same drivers etc) [19:35] Oh i meant Xubuntu hahah, Typ error [19:36] Okay because i switched with two Distobutions today with Linux because i didńt like Linux Mint and now i am on Mandriva but it isnt that good as i expected [19:37] If Xubuntu doesnt work, What Distubution looks alot like Ubuntu and is as good as Ubuntu [19:38] rickvanhelvert, it shouldnt boot whit a black screen, try to reconfigure the x's [19:38] The xś? [19:39] XD yes, the X server, it might be using a non compatible video driver for your monitor thats causing the error [19:40] And how should i be able to do that when i see completly nothing [19:40] rickvanhelvert: *ubuntu after setting it up, fedora might be worth trying too [19:41] rickvanhelvert: try pressing Ctrl Alt F6 [19:41] if you press alt-ctrl-F1 to F6 give you tty's that dont need video drivers :P you can configure x's from there [19:41] what graphicd card do you have? [19:41] Intel GMA 4500M [19:41] 1,5gb [19:42] Ubuntu 10.10 is supported btw [19:43] well, you still can use it [19:43] not until the end of 2012 [19:44] I am going to try to create a bootusb now of Xubuntu and see [19:45] next ubuntu will be released after half of a yer, if you can't figure out 11.04 [19:45] but try [19:45] ok [19:48] Okay well Mandriva sucks because i cant even see the empty disk [19:50] Does someone experienced slow load of thunar (only first time) in Natty? [19:52] everyone [19:54] burning Xubuntu now [19:57] So Ctrl alt f1 to f6? [19:57] F1 or F6 or anything beetween [19:58] ok [20:13] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdfdSF8MgDE [20:13] ops [20:13] sorry [20:15] ive been trying to install xubuntu to my asus eee, but i cant get it to boot from the usbdrive, all bios settings are right, im doing someting wrong with the usbdrive, can anyone give me any pointers on how to make a bootable usbdrive with xubuntu install [20:15] mic: how did you do the stick and how it is failing? [20:16] i used that uniboot or whatever its called, it simply just bots windows instead since it dosent find any bootable medium on the usbdrive [20:17] and ive also tried dd if=xubuntu.iso of=/dev/myusbdrive bs=1m [20:17] still no cigar [20:17] then i tryed to copy the installfiles to the drive and run syslinux -f on it, then it boots from the usbdrive but just freezes [20:19] dosent load anything tho, just a black screen [20:29] anyone? [20:33] do you happen to have a windows able machine? if you do you can use > http://wintoflash.com/home/en/ [20:50] I updated to Natty Narwhal and when I try to boot it, it just stays on a black screen. Is this a known issue? [20:52] Netrix: it may be any of several dozens of issues [20:53] Netrix: did you try the recovery mode? [20:53] Yes. It stays stuck on that too. [20:53] Though it does have text instead of just a black screen. [20:53] what text [20:53] the last lines are probably the most interesting [20:54] Stuff related to booting up. I could reboot and write down what the last stuff is. [20:55] that could probably help determine what is going wrong [20:55] I will be back in a bit. [21:09] TheSheep, I fixed it. [21:10] The last text shown in recovery was not really helpful, but I changed from switchable graphics to discrete graphics in the BIOS and it booted up fine. [21:11] So it seems like Natty does not like switchable graphics. I didn't have any issues with the previous versions of Xubuntu. [22:15] quick question. apologies if its a stupid one. where do i set the system wide settings for proxies [23:49] Hi i just installed xubuntu 11.04 for the first time today and managed to screw up window manager (max min and close are not available is there a way of fixing this without reinstalling?? [23:57] is there a WAY TO REPEPAIR A CORRUPT WINDOW MANAGER WITHOUT REINSTALLING [23:57] sry didnt realize caps was on [23:59] anyone?
