[06:25] <Mic> need help installing a server image in ubuntu server 10.04, the server image is a tar file with 11 vmdk files and a nvram file
[06:56] <Sysi> xubuntu isn't ubuntu server (and what does "server image" mean?)
[07:05] <sagarchalise> hi, is it possible to change `space` key functionality in thunar to some custom actions ??
[07:10] <TheSheep> no !!

[09:20] <Wizard_> whoa
[11:54] <cYmen> How do I stop xubuntu from displaying the contents of my home on the desktop?
[11:56] <TheSheep> cYmen: settings->desktop->icons->icon type->none\
[11:56] <TheSheep> cYmen: also, it doesn't do that
[11:57] <TheSheep> cYmen: by default it displays the contents of the directory Desktop
[12:02] <cYmen> TheSheep: I don't have that directory.
[12:02] <cYmen> TheSheep: If I set that to none all icons are gone but I like having removable media there.
[12:03] <TheSheep> did you remove your Desktop directory?
[12:03] <cYmen> Possibly... :)
[12:04] <TheSheep> well then
[12:05] <cYmen> Well, how do I get it back? :)
[12:05] <cYmen> I can create the directory but it doesn't have the desired effect. ;)
[12:08] <TheSheep> should work
[12:09] <TheSheep> http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs <-- this is the spec of that feature
[12:16] <moneedhelp> hello
[12:16] <moneedhelp> sorry I am new since today with xubuntu and I need some help with my display, does anyone could help me ?
[12:17] <moneedhelp> it's 3hours I try to fix it but noway :-(
[13:24] <cYmen> TheSheep: Had to set it in .config/user_dirs.dirs but now it works fine. Thanks!
[15:13] <cYmen> I'm having some trouble with .gvfs
[15:13] <cYmen> I was getting errors which are now gone after I unmounted it
[15:13] <cYmen> but since I have no clue what it does, can anybody give me any advice?
[19:08] <sokuban> what's the correct command to load xfce to put in a .xinitrc? startxfce4 brings up a totally different theme than what logging in through gdm would
[19:11] <charlie-tca> Are you starting xubuntu session or xfce session?
[19:11] <sokuban> charlie-tca: I guess I want to start a xubuntu session then, I'm not sure if there is a difference
[19:12] <charlie-tca> they are totally different
[19:12] <charlie-tca> xubuntu session puts the xubuntu wallpaper up, xfce session puts up a wallpaper with XFCE in the center
[19:13] <charlie-tca> if you are not getting either one, perhaps you are not starting xfwm4
[19:13] <sokuban> charlie-tca: ok, basically, I want a .xinitrc because I need to put "export LC_COLLATE=C" in it, and I need to know the command I should exec; sounds like I want the xubuntu session if that's what is the default
[19:13] <sokuban> charlie-tca: and I was getting the xfce session with startxfce4
[19:14] <sokuban> charlie-tca: Now I wouldn't be surprised if you are going to tell me I shouldn't export stuff in .xinitrc, I'm just used to that from my old distro; if there is a more proper place in ubuntu do tell
[19:16] <charlie-tca> I have never used .xinitrc, myself, but if you are starting the session, you would have to start xfsettingsd, xfce4-settings-helper, xfce4-session, xfwm4, xfdesktop4, xfce4-panel
[19:16] <charlie-tca> I don't really know how to do it with .xinitrc. I use GDM or LightDM to start the sessions
[19:17] <sokuban> charlie-tca: ok, thanks; I'll try xfce4-session alone because I have a hunch that also might be it but
[19:18] <sokuban> charlie-tca: I also plan on keeping on using GDM (going to link .xinitrc to .xsession which I believe it should read)
[19:20] <sokuban> charlie-tca: hmm, that gives me the same "xfce session" as before
[19:21] <sokuban> charlie-tca: not sure if starting the rest will change anything or not, because obviously xfwm, xfdesktop, and the panel are working anyways
[19:21] <charlie-tca> I don't know then. Maybe make sure the ~/.dmrc has Session=xubuntu    in it
[19:22] <sokuban> charlie-tca: maybe it would be easier to try to export that variable with gdm somehow; I've never used gdm before so would you have any idea?
[19:22] <charlie-tca> not necessarily. Many times xfwm4 will fail to start, since Xfce is very modular, every module can run indepent of the rest
[19:23] <charlie-tca> I don't. I install using a normal installation, and let the developers set it for me
[19:23] <sokuban> charlie-tca: ok, thanks for you help
[19:35] <sokuban> charlie-tca: ok, so I put the thing in /etc/profile and forgot about the whole .xinitrc stuff and it's all fine
[19:35] <charlie-tca> Great.
[19:35] <charlie-tca> glad you found  a solution

[21:23] <feyd> im having issues deleting files to the trash on my non-OS drives
[21:36] <jozefk> sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup > sudo apt-get update > sudo apt-get check, autoclean, update (again) > mv sources.list.backup back to sources.list > apt-get update
[21:37] <jozefk> that worked :P
[22:12] <GridCube> :D new install of xubuntu 11.04 on my sisters computer :D
[22:12] <charlie-tca> Great!
[22:13] <GridCube> :D now to figure out how to make her printer to work
[22:14] <charlie-tca> um, install the driver?
[22:16] <GridCube> actually i need to install the propietary drivers from hp
[22:16] <charlie-tca> oh, bad times ahead...
[22:17] <GridCube> :D
[22:19] <GridCube> so this "directories menu" panel element, can it be forced to work properly? i mean to clic on a folder and open it instead of the complex >mouse over, show everysinglefileofthefolder >open folder?
[22:35] <GridCube> first reboot, wish me luck :D
[22:38] <GridCube> :D
[22:39] <GridCube> mmmm ubuntu doesn't come whit rar management :/
[22:39] <Sysi> install unrar
[22:40] <GridCube> installing xarchiver whit its complements
[22:40] <GridCube> i've found out that xarchiver does a better job on big rar files
[22:41] <Sysi> xarchiver is just a frontend for using extracktion apps
[22:43] <GridCube> then why does it work where file roller doesnt?
[22:44] <charlie-tca> GridCube: you can change that to Thunar %F
[22:44] <charlie-tca> it will then open thunar instead of giving that long list
[22:46] <GridCube> yes i just created a thunar launcher, it is sad that i can not have a "places" list so i could open ... oooo i can make one :D creating a launcher box whit several thunar launcher binded to each folder i would like to open
[22:47]  * GridCube pats himself in the back
[22:47] <GridCube> the software center is loading and loading and loading but never actually loads
[22:50] <GridCube> http://imagebin.org/157402
[22:50] <GridCube> :(
[22:51] <Sysi> synaptic's better anyway :P start from terminal and see if it says something
[22:52] <GridCube> the thing is that im not the one who will be using this computer, i want it to work purrfectly
[22:54] <GridCube> nope, starting it from a terminal says nothing
[22:59] <GridCube> can i safely uninstall ristreto? or i need it for something thunar does?
[23:00] <TheSheep> you can uninstall it
[23:00] <TheSheep> it's the first thing I always do
[23:04] <GridCube> :D great
[23:21] <raevol> anyone else noticing thunar taking a long time to launch the first time it's run after boot?
[23:23] <Sysi> "feature"
[23:24] <GridCube> yes
[23:24] <GridCube> "feature"
[23:58] <charlie-tca> software center is broken, isn't it?
