| GSF1200S | Ive been using XFCE for at least 3 years now, but after messing around with KDE 4.6, Unity (on ubuntu), and Gnome 3, i have to ask: has the XFCE community seen a huge influx of new users lately? | 02:03 |
| GSF1200S | I asked this in the xfce channel, but didnt get a response. Im just curious.. | 02:03 |
| orngjce223 | Well, I've seen more people saying they don't like gnome /or/ kde /or/ unity now so presumably there /should/ be new xfce users | 02:12 |
| orngjce223 | no clue whether there are though | 02:13 |
| GSF1200S | orngjce223, yeah.. would seem that way. Figured id ask :) | 02:24 |
| orngjce223 | Cool. | 02:25 |
| belak51 | I'm trying to set up multi-monitors with xubuntu and it doesn't look like there's a tool here that will. Am I just missing something? All it'll let me do is mirror displays... | 03:36 |
| philipballew | multi monitors depends on your video card unless i am mastaken | 03:43 |
| philipballew | oh... he/she left... | 03:43 |
| uofm49426 | anyone know a easy why to make a img boot and all in xubuntu | 04:10 |
| uofm49426 | of a thumdrive | 04:10 |
| philipballew | xubuntu 11.04 has been freezing on me, has anyone else seen this issue? | 07:19 |
| Unit193 | How old is the computer? Does it happen to have 8xx video card? | 07:20 |
| philipballew | haha, its a emachine amd athlon with nvidia | 07:21 |
| philipballew | maybe 6 years | 07:21 |
| Unit193 | Did you happen to take a look at the logs? dmesg maybe? | 07:22 |
| philipballew | yeah, and nothing good. | 07:22 |
| Unit193 | Can't switch to a TTY? Mind pastebin of part of the files? | 07:23 |
| philipballew | well whenever it freezes, my ssh connection times out | 07:24 |
| philipballew | i know that | 07:24 |
| Unit193 | Eh, my head is killing me. I'll take your idea for sleep :/ | 07:24 |
| philipballew | do it!!! | 07:24 |
| Sysi | philipballew: /var/log/ should have .1 .2 etc. files from previous boots, anything in them? | 08:12 |
| xubuntu415 | hi | 12:24 |
| knome | hello | 12:25 |
| xubuntu415 | my panel disapear | 12:25 |
| xubuntu415 | how can i fix that | 12:25 |
| xubuntu415 | i mean panel with File Edit ... | 12:25 |
| xubuntu415 | of all windows i open | 12:25 |
| knome | the menubar? what did you do? | 12:25 |
| xubuntu415 | mm nothing just restart | 12:26 |
| beardygnome | is this on all applications, or just one? | 12:26 |
| xubuntu415 | all of them | 12:27 |
| Sysi | if you press alt and space does anything happen? | 12:27 |
| xubuntu415 | yes | 12:28 |
| xubuntu415 | but the menu bar still missing | 12:29 |
| beardygnome | have you installed any new programs or updates recently? | 12:32 |
| xubuntu415 | google earth | 12:33 |
| xubuntu415 | for updates i dont know | 12:33 |
| beardygnome | in the new version of ubuntu, which uses the unity desktop, the menu bar has been removed and integrated into the top panel | 12:34 |
| xubuntu415 | not ubuntu xfce | 12:34 |
| xubuntu415 | if i write in terminal | 12:35 |
| beardygnome | that's right, the xfce desktop from xubuntu still has menu bars | 12:35 |
| xubuntu415 | dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 12:35 |
| beardygnome | how did you install xubuntu? | 12:35 |
| xubuntu415 | from disk... | 12:36 |
| beardygnome | you didn't install ubuntu first then? | 12:37 |
| beardygnome | just trying to establish if you could have some ubuntu unity packages installed somehow... | 12:37 |
| wereyoda | how to get mouse cursor themes working on x64? | 16:29 |
| GridCube | cursor themes? | 16:31 |
| GridCube | never heard that one | 16:31 |
| GridCube | :/ | 16:31 |
| GridCube | !cursors | 16:31 |
| GridCube | !xfce-themes | 16:32 |
| ubottu | Themes for Xfce4 are simply GTK2+ themes which means Gnome themes are also compatible with your xfce4 desktop. To install themes, unpack it in ~/.themes/ To install icons, unpack them to ~/.icons/ - Visit http://www.xfce-look.org/ for all kinds of eyecandy for your Xfce4 desktop! - See also !themes for other GNOME theme sites | 16:32 |
| GridCube | i guess, that if a theme has cursors placing them on ~/.themes/ should do the trick | 16:33 |
| Sysi | actually ~/.icons/ | 16:34 |
| GridCube | oh | 16:34 |
| Sysi | iirc | 16:34 |
| GridCube | well never did that so i dont really know | 16:34 |
| Sysi | put the folder extracted from tarball there | 16:34 |
| GridCube | !behelpfull | GridCube | 16:35 |
| Sysi | or use some from repositories | 16:35 |
| Sysi | if it's not used even after relogin, copy theme to /usr/share/icons/ and edit /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme | 16:36 |
| tdignan | The flash plugin is using very large amounts of CPU and sometimes hanging my browser. | 16:44 |
| tdignan | Same with chrome, and firefox. I've used ubuntu on this system, and other distros, and windows, and didn't have this issue. | 16:44 |
| tdignan | I'm certain it's not a hardware issue, but a software one. | 16:45 |
| tdignan | Where do I file a bug? | 16:45 |
| GridCube | tdignan, write >ubuntu-bug flashplugin | 16:50 |
| GridCube | i gues you should file it against that | 16:50 |
| tdignan | oh, awesome | 16:50 |
| GridCube | or maybe >ubuntu-bug flashplugin-nonfree | 16:50 |
| GridCube | i guess the first one will be ennough | 16:51 |
| tdignan | nah the latter is required | 16:51 |
| tdignan | i just forgot that ubuntu-bug is used | 16:51 |
| tdignan | i was crusing around launchpad aimlessly | 16:51 |
| tdignan | oddly same problem happens with gnash. | 16:52 |
| GridCube | you write the line on a terminal or alt-f2 and then log into launchpad | 16:52 |
| GridCube | i think you can use several things after ubuntu-bug | 16:52 |
| GridCube | ubuntu-bug flashplugin gnash other | 16:52 |
| tdignan | thanks GridCube | 16:59 |
| Boom_Farmer | I just installed xubuntu 11.04 from the x84 live cd on another computer, and I can't find how to connect to the Internet. Where is the network management program? | 18:07 |
| Sysi | what kind of internet connection? | 18:08 |
| Boom_Farmer | WirWireless through a Linksys USB dongle. | 18:08 |
| Boom_Farmer | When I log in, a notification pops up saying 'click here to connect' but when I click, nothing happens. | 18:09 |
| Boom_Farmer | I can't find anything under the XFCE menu, and while I know it's possible to set something up using iwconfig, I would rather not do that. | 18:12 |
| GridCube | Boom_Farmer, >alt-f2 >nm-connection-editor | 18:13 |
| Boom_Farmer | Oooo | 18:13 |
| Boom_Farmer | Thank you very much | 18:13 |
| GridCube | :) | 18:13 |
| Boom_Farmer | Note to self: Typing on laptop keyboard does not enter text on tower. | 18:14 |
| GridCube | hahaha | 18:14 |
| Sysi | there's icon in upper right corner for networkmanager | 18:15 |
| Boom_Farmer | There isn't. | 18:16 |
| Boom_Farmer | Thank you all. | 18:18 |
| * Boom_Farmer exits in this direction. | 18:18 | |
| philipballew | hey, whenever i try to restart or shutdown my desktop, it hangs on the xubuntu screen ans just sits there for several minuter untill i have to manually turn it off. | 19:44 |
| madnick | philipballew: try to jump onto a terminal | 19:45 |
| madnick | ctrl+alt+f(x) | 19:45 |
| madnick | and check whats going on | 19:45 |
| philipballew | madnick, alright, sorry that took a bit, had to do somethin. so i press ctrl+alt+f(x) when? | 20:09 |
| JakeV | could someone help me adjust the screen brightness on my netbook while on battery power? | 21:26 |
| wereyoda | woohoo my old problem about mouse is finally solved seem to be release problem with x64 | 21:26 |
| wereyoda | tye update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme with sudo :) | 21:27 |
| Sysi | I used nano.. | 21:28 |
| wereyoda | little deeper heh | 21:30 |
| Sysi | I found that instruction first and it worked (and seems a little simpler) | 21:31 |
| dodgefan67 | hi all, first time xubuntu user, just checking in | 23:33 |
| philipballew | dodgefan67, welcome! | 23:34 |
| dodgefan67 | is there a way to upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10 alpha 2? | 23:34 |
| philipballew | yes there is, but what makes you want to dodgefan67 ? | 23:40 |
| knome | dodgefan67, if it's a production machine, or if you need to use it for whatever else reason, don't upgrade to an alpha release. | 23:41 |
| dodgefan67 | well just didnt want to burn another iso and start over | 23:42 |
| dodgefan67 | its my home pc and so no worries there | 23:42 |
| knome | why would you need to start over? is there something wrong with 11.04? | 23:43 |
| dodgefan67 | no i meant burn another iso and redo a clean install | 23:43 |
| philipballew | you can upgrade in October when it is ofically released? | 23:43 |
| dodgefan67 | true, but i like living on the edge a bit | 23:43 |
| philipballew | try 11.10 in a virtualbox and use it there maybe | 23:43 |
| knome | dodgefan67, i can't suggest trying 11.10 even if you want to live on the edge, but if you must... | 23:44 |
| knome | dodgefan67, try 'sudo update-manager -d' | 23:44 |
| knome | and please remember, there is no support for 11.10 yet. | 23:45 |
| philipballew | dont get mad if you have to reinstall 11.1o | 23:45 |
| philipballew | *0 | 23:45 |
| knome | or 11.04 :) | 23:46 |
| philipballew | thats what i ment :) i would recomend duel booting or a v-box | 23:46 |
| philipballew | i have .10 on a v-box | 23:46 |
| knome | vbox is the way best way to test. | 23:47 |
| knome | dodgefan67, also, if you want to help with the (daily) testing of 11.10, join the development channel #xubuntu-devel and poke charlie-tca when he's online :) | 23:48 |
| philipballew | yeah, if your gonna be in the upstream might as well help out | 23:48 |
| dodgefan67 | well thats true. i guess it is a bit different than running a rolling release type distro like arch | 23:49 |
| philipballew | true, arch is just always slightly unstable where alpha 2 is unstable | 23:50 |
| philipballew | but its getting there! | 23:50 |
| philipballew | well in my experance with arch | 23:50 |
| dodgefan67 | yeah arch can be that way sometimes, you really have to keep up with it for sure | 23:53 |
| philipballew | dodgefan67, in what way? | 23:55 |
| dodgefan67 | it can be unstable in that some changes they have made, if you arent careful or pay attention can mess your system up | 23:56 |
| dodgefan67 | sorry, not that it crashes just that you can screw your system up easier with arch if dont pay attention | 23:57 |
| philipballew | never used arch. might try it | 23:58 |
| dodgefan67 | it has a great wiki and forum, read up first, you basically build your own system with it | 23:59 |
