[00:58] <jim_> looking for help in installing xubuntu on a wiped hard drive
[02:17] <Josesordo> a friend asking me how to install Ares (a P2P app) in xubuntu using WineHQ .. some ideas? xD
[02:24] <gr8m8> !wine | Josesordo
[03:48] <Aaron_M> how do I switch users?
[03:48] <Aaron_M> i.e., without closing any of my running programs
[03:55] <charlie-tca> add the user switcher applet
[03:57] <charlie-tca> Aaron_M: add the xfswitch-plugin, then add it to the panel
[03:58] <Aaron_M> thanks
[03:58] <charlie-tca> It will add a thing to the panel to let you switch users without logging out
[03:58] <Aaron_M> awesome! :)
[03:58] <Aaron_M> you're my hero
[04:43] <mastermold> Hello, I just installed xumbuntu for the first time on an older system of mine(spent my life using windows so far) and was hoping to get a litlte help getting set up... I am not sure if I have come to the right place though?
[04:47] <GridCube> :D
[04:47] <GridCube> yo did!
[04:47] <GridCube> :D
[04:47] <GridCube> oh
[04:47] <GridCube> he left
[04:47] <GridCube> :(
[08:10] <edogaa> Xubuntu support chanel was?
[08:12] <edogaa> well okay, if I want to trouble shoot why my brothers PC with xubuntu keeps freezing and the keyboard is incapable of responding what should I do?
[08:18] <psycho_oreos> it might be a hardware issue, I'd check if the RAM is faulty and then maybe check other potential sources. I'm presuming with keyboard unable to respond, it is a hardware lock, which could mean numerous things including PSU at fault
[08:19] <edogaa> i see
[08:19] <edogaa> so memtest, hdd test and stuffl ike that
[08:19] <edogaa> i can ssh into it
[08:19] <edogaa> is there anything i should do during the process?
[08:20] <Unit193> SSH in sounds kinda like the issue I have been working with...
[08:20] <Sysi> after it's frosen, see dmesg and ~/.xsession-errors and stuff in /var/log/
[08:20] <edogaa> ah kk
[08:21] <Sysi> what graphics btw?
[08:21] <edogaa> i'll just wait for it to freeze then :/
[08:21] <edogaa> Sadly, an integrated VIA chip on a really low ram computer (512)
[08:21] <edogaa> and a celeron D
[08:23] <Sysi> propably intel then.. i've had issue like that with integrated intel
[08:24] <edogaa> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIA_Technologies
[08:24] <Unit193> My 82845G has been iffy at best...
[08:26] <edogaa> i sleep now
[11:46] <MK```> Where is the system settings menu?
[15:08] <rblst> hi, i've just downloaded xubuntu 11.04 and been trying to install it on a PII 400 Mhz machine with 512 MB RAM, but i get a kernel panic even before the installer loads
[17:01] <edogaa> what does it mean when the system is frozen but i can't ssh into it
[17:02] <Sysi> do you mean you can ssh?
[17:03] <Sysi> if it's just totally frozen.. kernel panic or something other nasty
[17:04] <edogaa> No, I mean I can't :/
[17:04] <edogaa> trying t ssh into it right now but i can't
[17:12] <edogaa> :/ how do i know whats wrong with it if its this frozen lol
[17:13] <Sysi> i wonder what logs are stored after reboot
[17:14] <charlie-tca> Try both num-lock and caps-lock to see if either light will work. Do the keyboard lights blink at you? If num-lock and caps lock work to show a light, it is maxing out the cpu or memoyr
[17:14] <edogaa> okay :/ i guess i'm going to have to hard reboot it
[17:15] <edogaa> no
[17:15] <edogaa> no light fro meither one
[17:16] <charlie-tca> hard reboot, check /var/crash for any report, then check /var/log/syslog.0
[17:29] <edogaa> i found a syslog.1 but not 0
[17:29] <charlie-tca> anything in .1?
[17:29] <edogaa> a lot of text i'm going t look at for anything suspicious
[17:33] <edogaa> don't know i'm going to pastebin it
[17:34] <charlie-tca> search for error or fail
[17:34] <charlie-tca> or pastebin and I will look
[17:39] <edogaa> should i get normal syslog too? :P
[17:39] <edogaa> there are two of them
[17:40] <charlie-tca> nope
[17:40] <charlie-tca> normal syslog should be for the last boot
[17:43] <edogaa> http://pastebin.com/2nVGvUS8
[17:43] <edogaa> there is also fail log and a couple dmesg ones, I wonderif there is anything in those :/
[17:44] <charlie-tca> looking at it
[17:44] <charlie-tca> dmesg might have something, one back from the current again.
[17:44] <edogaa> huh
[17:45] <edogaa> One back? like dmesg.0? Actually how do these logs work. :/ Are numbered ones from the last time it was 'up' or what?  lol
[17:46] <charlie-tca> yeah
[17:47] <charlie-tca> Normally the one without a number is the latest one, generated either during the last boot or the current session
[17:47] <edogaa> ah
[17:47] <edogaa> why are dmesg 1-4 in a gz archive?
[17:47] <charlie-tca> The lowest number should be the previous to that, and they go back in sequence
[17:47] <charlie-tca> The biggest number is the farthest back
[17:48] <charlie-tca> It saves 5 previous logs, and rotates them
[17:48] <charlie-tca> so, next time, dmesg.4.gz will delete, demesg.3.gz will be renamed to .4, etc
[17:48] <edogaa> ah
[17:52] <charlie-tca> lines 66 to 75 of the pastebin show shutdown hanging
[17:52] <charlie-tca> Looks like a cron jobs were running, then it hung
[17:53] <charlie-tca> is there a kernel log, too? look in it and search for kerneloops
[17:53] <edogaa> kernlog?
[17:53] <charlie-tca> If there is one, the kernel caused the hang
[17:53] <charlie-tca> yes
[17:54] <edogaa> i'll pastebin kern.log.1 then :/
[17:54] <charlie-tca> nm
[17:54] <charlie-tca> this caused it
[17:54] <charlie-tca> Jun 12 02:31:43 haykel-desktop AptDaemon: INFO: Initializing daemon
[17:54] <edogaa> huh
[17:54] <charlie-tca> AptDaemon never was able to shutdown
[17:54] <edogaa> What does this mean?
[17:55] <charlie-tca> That's what all those shutdown lines are for
[17:55] <charlie-tca> !aptdaemon
[17:55] <charlie-tca> !info aptdaemon
[17:55] <charlie-tca> I think it might have to do with update-manager
[17:57] <charlie-tca> If you were not trying to add/remove anything, it was update-manager
[17:57] <charlie-tca> It caused the cpu to go 100% and lock up
[17:57] <edogaa> Ah
[17:57] <edogaa> So how do I disable the update-manager :/
[17:58] <charlie-tca> Usually that is a bad idea, since you wouldn't know if anything needed to be updated then
[17:58] <charlie-tca> If it does it again, file a bug using      ubuntu-bug update-manager
[17:59] <charlie-tca> and attach the /var/log/syslog.1 to it
[17:59] <charlie-tca> It might be a one time glitch in the app
[17:59] <edogaa> :/ its locked up a lot.
[17:59] <charlie-tca> file it then
[18:00] <edogaa> If I leave it alone for a period of time. Okay then
[18:00] <charlie-tca> apt-daemon should not be locking it up like that
[18:01] <charlie-tca> but all those lines about it trying to shutdown are saying it can't, for whatever reason. It will then cause the freeze to happen
[18:43] <RafalMysliwczyk> Hello everybody, i have one question about xubuntu.
[18:43] <RafalMysliwczyk> I am installing a xubuntu 10.10 right now and i want to update it to the newest 11.04

[18:44] <RafalMysliwczyk> And what are the diferences from installing 11.04 straight from cd
[18:45] <zarzar> there's always a possibility when upgrading that some configurations might conflict with the newer versions
[18:45] <Sysi> additional possibility to get weird problems and takes a lot more time
[18:47] <RafalMysliwczyk> but unfortunatly i have no choise because i don't have any cd's right now ;/
[18:47] <zarzar> also 11.04 brings in some huge xfce
[18:47] <zarzar> *upgrades
[18:47] <zarzar> how about a usb?
[18:47] <RafalMysliwczyk> Nope ;p
[18:47] <RafalMysliwczyk> Don't have any

[19:07] <daddy> I guess not too many people owns MFC-295CN
[19:07] <charlie-tca> They do, if you file the bug with ubuntu-bug aptdaemon, it will attach the logs
[19:08] <charlie-tca> daddy: doesn't seem like it

[19:16] <charlie-tca> of favorite channels

[21:08] <charlie-tca> nope
[21:08] <Wizard> i've noticed some annoying inconsistencies in xubuntu
[21:08] <Sysi> braaainz
[21:08]  * Wizard casts turn undead
[21:10] <charlie-tca> Well, actually, I think we know about that one, that one has a bug against it, the next one I never heard of
[21:11] <Wizard> charlie-tca: that one with thundrbird not integrated with message-indicator?
[21:11] <charlie-tca> That's the one with the bug
[21:12] <charlie-tca> apparently got my answers out of sequence today
[21:13] <Wizard> is there a way to disable double clicking on desktop?
[21:14] <Wizard> i mean, if it displays directory or minimised windows i have to click elements twice
[21:14] <Wizard> it's pretty hard on touchscreen
[21:17] <charlie-tca> nope
[21:17] <charlie-tca> Maybe Xfce 4.10 will have the ability to single click the desktop, but for now, it is not possible
[21:18] <Wizard> you're involved n xfce development?
[21:19] <charlie-tca> no, only Xubuntu
[21:19] <Sysi> it's free to follow in the internet
[21:22] <Wizard> what's free to follow?
[21:23] <Sysi> xfce development
[23:19] <etharooni> Hey people!  I can't log in!  After changing window styles, It kicked me off.
[23:19] <etharooni> is there a way of changing the window style from the command line?
[23:20] <etharooni> Crap.  And Irssi isn't letting me change between windows from this recovery console thing.
[23:20] <charlie-tca> You are in recovery mode?
[23:21] <etharooni> In the recovery console.
[23:21] <charlie-tca> it will remove all custom configurations, but the easiest way is  cd to your home, instead of root home
[23:21] <charlie-tca> Then remove .config and .cache and restart
[23:22] <etharooni> Alright.  Here goes.
[23:22] <charlie-tca> Then never try wildbush theme again
[23:22] <etharooni> restarting.
[23:24] <etharooni> It works!
[23:25] <etharooni> Thanks!
[23:25] <charlie-tca> You are welcome
[23:25] <charlie-tca> The theme that does that to you is in Window Manager, Wildbush
[23:26] <etharooni> Got it.  Why is that in there?
[23:26] <charlie-tca> It is a really nice theme for those that don't lock up
[23:26] <etharooni> Interesting.  Wonder why that is.
[23:26] <charlie-tca> and it is supplied by Xfce themselves, which is used in a lot of distros besides Xubuntu.
[23:35] <ljhr05> hi
[23:36] <charlie-tca> !hi | ljhr05
[23:38] <GridCube> :D hi ljhr05
[23:46] <etharooni> Well, it seems that my audio doesn't work after getting rid of the .cache and .config.
[23:46] <etharooni> It would have been smart to back stuff up.
[23:46] <charlie-tca> click the speaker in the top panel, unmute the thing
[23:47] <charlie-tca> You may have to select some controls in it, too
[23:47] <etharooni> It looks unmuted.
[23:47] <charlie-tca> got controls in it?
[23:48] <etharooni> Well, I added them again.
[23:48] <charlie-tca> did you add both alsa and pulse audio control?
[23:49] <etharooni> All I did was "select controls..."
[23:50] <charlie-tca> after selecting them, look at the line above that says "sound card. Switch it to the pulse audio card, and add a master control for it
[23:50] <etharooni> alright.
[23:50] <charlie-tca> all you need is the playback control
[23:51] <etharooni> It says it's on full blast.
[23:52] <charlie-tca> close the select controls thing, right click the speaker, and select pulse audio
[23:53] <charlie-tca> well, right-click the speaker, select properties, select pulse audio
[23:53] <etharooni> hmm...
[23:53] <etharooni> Don't really see what you mean.
[23:54] <charlie-tca> When you right click, left click properties
[23:54] <etharooni> The only control for playback is "Master:
[23:54] <etharooni> charlie-tca: Heh.  Well.
[23:54] <charlie-tca> the mixer track, pick the sound card above it
[23:54] <charlie-tca> Playback: internal... (pulseaudiomixer)?
[23:55] <charlie-tca> I ain't very good at sound. I am very good with the login thing
[23:55] <etharooni> Yeah.  Just a master control.  What am I right clicking on?
[23:56] <charlie-tca> right-click the speaker again. left-click brings up "select controls". after right-clicking, you should have properties
[23:57] <etharooni> Oh.  That.  I'm a little slow.
