| alberto | hello! | 09:52 |
| alberto | new to xubuntu I'm trying to get help on encrypting files and setting up a home network | 09:53 |
| alberto | I can't find in google what I'm looking for | 09:54 |
| alberto | I've managed to decrypt files with the contextual menu, but not the the way round | 09:55 |
| alberto | I've managed to decrypt files with the contextual menu, but not the other way round | 09:55 |
| alberto | is there an easy tool encrypt/decrypt files? | 09:55 |
| cwickert | I read that xubuntu 11.10 is going to replace file-roller with xarchiver. do you think this is a wise decision given that xarchiver is effectively unmaintained for years now? | 09:59 |
| charlie-tca | cwickert: If we have to pull in all of Gnome vs unmaintained, yes, | 12:42 |
| charlie-tca | we would consider all of Gnome the greater evil | 12:42 |
| charlie-tca | cwickert: however, that decision probably will be reverted before Xubuntu 11.10 releases in October | 12:43 |

| Besogon | I feel I need xubuntu but does anybody know if it's possible to upgrade from ubuntu to xubuntu? | 14:33 |
| charlie-tca | yes, it is | 14:35 |
| charlie-tca | you can open a terminal and install it | 14:35 |
| Besogon | How to do that? | 14:35 |
| charlie-tca | using "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" | 14:35 |
| charlie-tca | it will install as a separate session, which you choose at login. | 14:36 |
| Besogon | No. I'll get a lot of litter from gnome | 14:36 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 14:36 |
| charlie-tca | Then it is fresh install, I guess | 14:36 |
| xGrind | Besogon; http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce | 14:37 |
| Besogon | xGrind: Thank you | 14:38 |
| Besogon | :D | 14:38 |
| xGrind | xD~ | 14:38 |
| * Besogon is conjuring: "Abra cadabra!!!!" <Help me God not to break my computer> | 14:41 | |
| Besogon | it's going | 14:46 |
| Besogon | OMG!!! Isuppose Idelete evolution! NO!!!! | 14:47 |
| charlie-tca | Okay | 14:52 |
| charlie-tca | keep it if you want | 14:52 |
| charlie-tca | but if you delete what it needs, it will break anyway | 14:53 |
| planter | how do i copy a file in terminal with showing the file transfer speed? | 15:39 |
| === planter is now known as plantoschka | ||
| ball | plantoschka: dd ? | 15:43 |
| * ball tries it | 15:43 | |
| plantoschka | dd? | 15:45 |
| ball | dd if=TEST of=TEST2 | 15:45 |
| ball | I used bs=32768, but that's because I happened to know the file was an even multiple of that block size | 15:45 |
| plantoschka | ??? i just want to copy a file from one destination to another | 15:45 |
| plantoschka | cp | 15:45 |
| ball | plantoschka: dd can do the same thing, but reports the achieved speed. | 15:46 |
| plantoschka | ok | 15:46 |
| plantoschka | will have a look at it later thanks | 15:46 |
| free99 | hello everyone, I'm running xubuntu 11.04 on my HP 2710p tablet pc. Since having left version 10.04, I've had a problem in 10.10 and now 11.04 that won't go away. Every time I first boot my machine, my tablet works fine, the mouse follows the pen. But when I suspend and then resume, the wacom device is still listed in xinput --list, but it stops working | 16:04 |
| free99 | any ideas on how to fix it? I have a suspicion the problem is related to x/inputhotplug somehow | 16:05 |
| free99 | well.. thanks anyhow, got pointed over here if anyone's curious: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1686278.html | 16:14 |

| gNewPower | Hi friends! I have installed all the XFCE/Xubuntu files from the repos and I am now running Xubuntu. One thing bugs me - Nautilus still pop-up from time time and tries to run the desktop. How can I stop nautilus from running? thanks! | 22:42 |
| charlie-tca | remove it and install thunar | 22:43 |
| gNewPower | I already have thunar. but I would like to keep nautilus with the --no-desktop flag just for the case when I need a tabbed browser or the nautilus scripts | 22:43 |
| charlie-tca | Then nautilus will still do what it is, since it takes over | 22:44 |
| gNewPower | why does it "take over"? | 22:44 |
| charlie-tca | Because that's the way they wrote it? | 22:45 |
| gNewPower | "they" wrote it to take over an XFCE-managed session?! | 22:46 |
| charlie-tca | Gnome applications are designed to be the default when you install Ubuntu. If you then install xfce, gnome apps are still the default applications | 22:48 |
| charlie-tca | By removing those gnome default apps, Xfce apps are allowed to become the default applications. | 22:49 |
| gNewPower | are there more GNOME applications doing that besides nautilus? | 22:51 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 22:52 |
| gNewPower | oh man, so what did you uninstall, all of GNOME? | 22:52 |
| charlie-tca | I never installed it | 22:54 |
| charlie-tca | I installed Xubuntu, since I did not want Ubuntu | 22:54 |
| charlie-tca | But, yes, that would be another way to do it | 22:54 |
| charlie-tca | !purexfce | 22:55 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE and !Gnome packages and have a default !Xubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce » | 22:55 |
| gNewPower | ok, I understand that. I used to like Ubuntu until everybody at Canonical went crazy and they started that Unity shit | 22:55 |
| charlie-tca | That would help remove them | 22:55 |
| charlie-tca | choices | 22:55 |
| charlie-tca | If you want Gnome applications over Xfce applications, you put up with gnome idiosyncracies | 22:56 |
| gNewPower | there must be tens of thousands of former Ubuntu users like me how are running from Unity and finding a harbor of sanity in Xubuntu right now, lol! | 22:56 |
| gNewPower | I betcha the Xubuntu user base is just exploding | 22:57 |
| charlie-tca | There are still millions who use Unity, too. It is not that bad | 22:57 |
| gNewPower | it is absolutely horrible, an total abomination, IMHO, and the worst thing is the underlying mindset: we will tell you what is best for you. | 22:58 |
| gNewPower | Apple-wananbes | 22:58 |
| gNewPower | I think that Ubuntu has committed suicide with Unity | 22:58 |
| gNewPower | all my friends are running to Xubuntu or even Debian | 22:58 |
| knome | gNewPower, please, even if this is the xubuntu channel, please don't attack ubuntu/unity | 22:58 |
| gNewPower | gNewPower, ok. | 22:59 |
| charlie-tca | Every one has an opinion. This is not the place for them, though. | 22:59 |
| gNewPower | knome, ok, I mean | 22:59 |
| gNewPower | ok | 22:59 |
| gNewPower | sorry | 22:59 |
| gNewPower | thanks for the pointers guys :-) | 22:59 |
| knome | gNewPower, i also don't want to hear "suicide" "shit" or other language repeatedly here | 22:59 |
| knome | thanks :) | 22:59 |
| * gNewPower is off his soap-box | 22:59 | |
| gNewPower | my apologies. thanks! | 23:00 |
