| MJBrune | hey | 06:16 |
|---|---|---|
| MJBrune | anyone here | 06:16 |
| MJBrune | I am having sound troubles | 06:16 |
| MJBrune | I can hear sound but its really quiet and everything in the sound mixer is turned up for both alsa and pulse | 06:16 |
| orngjce223 | Generic "is this thing on" question: Have you checked the volume level on your external speakers, if there is any? | 06:18 |
| MJBrune | orngjce223: yes I checked both | 06:23 |
| MJBrune | orngjce223: is there anyway to increase my volume past 100%? | 06:28 |
| MJBrune | i know in vlc you can go to 400% | 06:28 |
| MJBrune | is there something like that for the whole system? | 06:28 |
| orngjce223 | Unfortunately, I don't know of anything like that. | 06:28 |
| MJBrune | so i have to run everything though vlc to get decent sound? | 06:29 |
| orngjce223 | Try #opensourcemusicians they might know of a software amplifier you can use or something. I'm stumped :/ | 06:30 |
| aatk | MJBrune: are you sure the speakers are okay, have you tried plugging another device in and checked cables? | 08:08 |
| aatk | I've spent hours trying to fix quiet audio to find the cable was damaged in the end | 08:09 |
| MJBrune | aatk: yes I have | 08:23 |
| MJBrune | aatk: I have checked the ports and cords | 08:23 |
| MJBrune | its 100% software | 08:24 |

| MJBrune | How can I make xfce terminal start at 120 by 30 instead of 80 by 24? | 11:09 |
| Sysi | MJBrune: mousepad ~/.config/Terminal/terminalrc | 11:23 |
| MJBrune | Sysi: ty | 11:24 |

| KM0201 | hmm, i dunno.. what exactly looks "big" in firefox? the buttons, the menu, ? or does the whole OS look larger than normal? | 17:20 |

| KM0201 | hmm | 17:23 |
| KM0201 | i don't use Xubuntu. | 17:23 |
| KM0201 | but.. i think there's a "Zoom" feature.. you've probably got that set to high. | 17:23 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: does xfce have that zoom feature? | 17:24 |
| KM0201 | i know gnomme does | 17:24 |
| derpadong | What are you using then? | 17:24 |
| KM0201 | lxde | 17:24 |
| Unit193 | derpadong: Anything fun with the DPI? | 17:24 |
| KM0201 | the most awesome-sauce GUI there is. | 17:24 |
| KM0201 | lol | 17:24 |
| derpadong | Not that I know of | 17:25 |
| derpadong | I will have to test it out later | 17:25 |
| derpadong | Im going to probably reinstall Ubuntu | 17:25 |
| derpadong | Or just use xfce | 17:25 |
| derpadong | with xubuntu | 17:26 |
| derpadong | Im going to dual boot | 17:26 |
| Unit193 | Are you going to be using this on TV? | 17:26 |

| Unit193 | !mythbuntu | 17:26 |
| ubottu | Mythbuntu is an Ubuntu derivative centered upon setting up a standalone MythTV system. See: http://www.mythbuntu.org for more information | 17:26 |
| Unit193 | Is that maybe somethting you would bbe looking for? | 17:27 |
| Unit193 | I think it's switching to XFCE too | 17:27 |
| derpadong | I know what mythbuntu is | 17:27 |
| derpadong | Im using this for a computer | 17:27 |
| derpadong | Not TV shows and whatnot | 17:27 |
| Unit193 | Alright, I can only think of res and DPI right now. | 17:28 |

| Mandrew | hi which network manager is it that you guys have in xubuntu? | 21:10 |
| Sysi | networkmanager used through nm-applet | 21:11 |
| Sysi | wicd should work too | 21:11 |
| Mandrew | so its called nm-applet the network manager? | 21:15 |
| Mandrew | that cant be right or am i misunderstanding you sir? | 21:16 |
| Unit193 | That's correct | 21:16 |
| charlie-tca | no, it is called network-manager or maybe gnome-network-manager | 21:16 |
| Mandrew | that is being used in xubuntu? | 21:16 |
| charlie-tca | yes | 21:16 |
| Unit193 | *The command seems to be nm-applet | 21:17 |
| Mandrew | so xfce dont have a special one | 21:17 |
| Mandrew | ok tnx | 21:17 |
| Mandrew | i got to go my belly is killing me :S | 21:17 |
| charlie-tca | correct. Xfce uses either network-manager or wicd, depending on the distribution itself | 21:17 |
| Mandrew | ok | 21:17 |
| Mandrew | so what do i need to get it to show up in the applet | 21:18 |
| charlie-tca | If you went and got xfce and tried to install it, you would find you need to install a distribution to get xfce to do anything useful | 21:18 |
| Mandrew | sorry need to go my belly is really hurting, tnx for the help | 21:19 |

| charlie-tca | !nothelping | 23:14 |
| Mandrew | ? | 23:16 |
| Mandrew | whats not helping? | 23:16 |
| beardygnome | I think charlie is testing a bot response | 23:18 |
| Mandrew | aaah | 23:18 |
| beardygnome | !nothelping | 23:18 |
| Mandrew | !help | 23:18 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:18 |
| charlie-tca | !nothelping #xubuntu is <reply> Please do not disrupt the channel with off-topic subjects. If you are not using Xubuntu, you are not helping this user. | 23:18 |
| ubottu | charlie-tca: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:18 |
| Mandrew | !nothelping | 23:19 |
| beardygnome | !nothelping | 23:19 |
| zenrox | !spam | 23:19 |
| charlie-tca | it ain't working yet | 23:19 |
| charlie-tca | 19 | 23:22 |
| Mandrew | 20 | 23:22 |
| Mandrew | :P | 23:22 |
| charlie-tca | !guidelines | 23:26 |
| ubottu | The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 23:26 |
| Mandrew | charlie-tca, are you playing around with the ChanServ ? ;) | 23:29 |
| charlie-tca | no, I am piecing together a new factoid | 23:29 |
| Mandrew | is there like a cmd for sub channels? | 23:30 |
| charlie-tca | We can limit factoids to specific channels | 23:31 |
| charlie-tca | !behelpful | 23:31 |
| ubottu | As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 23:31 |
| Mandrew | like /me but something in the line of /sub-channel | 23:31 |
| Mandrew | ok | 23:31 |
| charlie-tca | I don't think so | 23:32 |
| Mandrew | the /me thing is actually the only one i know hehe | 23:32 |
| charlie-tca | there is /msg ubottu to talk to the bot without the channel being in the middle | 23:32 |
| Mandrew | ok that sound just even more lonely then sitting and talking to the computer :S | 23:33 |
| Mandrew | is there a cmd guide or cmd reference guide for irc? | 23:34 |
| charlie-tca | yes, there is | 23:35 |
| charlie-tca | !guidelines | 23:35 |
| ubottu | The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 23:35 |
| Mandrew | ooh cool | 23:35 |
| charlie-tca | oh, but that isn't really the cmd guide. Let me find that | 23:35 |
| Mandrew | this one is a good one: Don't ask for operator privileges | 23:38 |
| charlie-tca | yeah | 23:40 |
| charlie-tca | most commands will be found in http://www.irchelp.org/, which is a lot of reading | 23:40 |
| GridCube | indeed | 23:40 |
| Mandrew | i have a channel that they keep giving me "talk privileges" dont even know what it is, but i really dont think it necessary for other then the OPs to have special privileges | 23:40 |
| charlie-tca | This is easier, but do not use away, please | 23:41 |
| charlie-tca | http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/ircprimer.html#Commands | 23:41 |
| charlie-tca | talk privileges in some channels is needed just so they can see what you are typing. | 23:42 |
| charlie-tca | some channels do not allow "anyone" to talk, so they give special permissions. | 23:42 |
| Mandrew | hehe charlie-tca i did test things in the settings panel ;) remember? didnt know it would spam the channel, just thought it would say something if someone sent me a PM or clicked on me | 23:43 |
| charlie-tca | yeah, such things happen. Normally, we tell you and you become aware of it | 23:43 |
| Mandrew | i was in like 15 channels and everyone got pissed off, not so much fun was it ;) | 23:44 |
| charlie-tca | heh | 23:44 |
| charlie-tca | I usually take mine down to just one or two channels for that stuff | 23:45 |
| Mandrew | i would have done that now in retrospect or just have opened a empty channel to try it out, but done is done | 23:46 |
| charlie-tca | if you take it down to just #xubuntu- channels, it is easier for everyone to see what happened, and we don't jump as much. | 23:46 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 23:46 |
| Mandrew | and the funny thing with away msg is that you never see it yourself but you discover it the hardway by being banned and not being able to come back ;) | 23:48 |
| Mandrew | charlie-tca, do you use nstapaper? | 23:49 |
| Mandrew | instapaper* | 23:49 |
| charlie-tca | no, | 23:49 |
| charlie-tca | don't know what that is | 23:49 |
| Mandrew | ok i was thinking there might be a app for that or some like it for linux | 23:50 |
| Mandrew | http://www.instapaper.com/ | 23:50 |
| Mandrew | A simple tool to save web pages for reading later. | 23:51 |
| charlie-tca | There is one | 23:51 |
| charlie-tca | let me find it | 23:51 |
| Mandrew | there is? nice | 23:52 |
| Mandrew | i found it today and its a really good tool, now i have a bunch of good articles on my ipad | 23:54 |
| charlie-tca | httrack lets you save the website | 23:54 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know if it is the same, though | 23:54 |
| Mandrew | i think not, but i dd a string on google and i think i got some good hit | 23:55 |
| Mandrew | s | 23:55 |
| charlie-tca | I usually just click on File -> Save Page As... in firefox | 23:55 |
| charlie-tca | it saves a page and folder with the same name. Just click the page name and it opens it Firefox | 23:55 |
| Mandrew | the good thing with instapaper is that as soon a save it to one place i have it on all devices | 23:55 |
| charlie-tca | Then it is storing them in the cloud? | 23:56 |
| Mandrew | and if i need to help a friend, i just login to instapaper on the web | 23:56 |
| Mandrew | yea some like it | 23:56 |
| Mandrew | but i have it off line too | 23:57 |
| charlie-tca | I see. | 23:57 |
| charlie-tca | bbl | 23:57 |
| Mandrew | so i can read stuff when im abroad too without the need to go online | 23:57 |
| charlie-tca | got to run for a few minutes | 23:57 |
| Mandrew | ok you have a nice one | 23:58 |
| Mandrew | i might not be here later | 23:58 |
| Mandrew | getting tired | 23:58 |
| Mandrew | its late here | 23:58 |
