IrrationlArtistEhh, I really don't like it that much, I think the new one looks 1000% better and if I find any bugs, I'll be sure to report them, help everyone else out00:00
knomeIrrationlArtist, if you are building from source, you need at least the 'build-essential' -package00:01
IrrationlArtistalready have it00:01
knomeok, try pasting the output to pastebin and let's see :)00:01
IrrationlArtistHere's the output for ./configure on pastebin: http://pastebin.com/Bz8VanES00:03
knomehmm, i don't know... seems that some of the libraries are plainly just too old, you might need to try testing that on an alpha release of xubuntu00:04
knomeand that's not really good solution, if you need your computer to do anything else00:05
IrrationlArtistI can't just install the libraries via apt-get or a .deb? that's what I was trying to do before, but it wasn't working...00:05
=== `mOOse` is now known as m00se
IrrationlArtist!details00:06
ubottuPlease give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..."00:06
knomeIrrationlArtist, i don't think there is new enough libraries in the repositories00:07
IrrationlArtistAnd nowhere to get them online?00:08
knomeIrrationlArtist, yeah, if you have the source code for the libraries too, you can build those too...00:08
knomeyeah, but that means a lot more work00:08
IrrationlArtistThat seems like it would take a loong time...00:08
knomeyeah, it probably will00:08
IrrationlArtistGuess I'll just wait till it comes out. In reality, the current Gwibber isn't really that bad.00:08
knomeand you might encounter other problems, like newer lib versions not working with other libs00:09
IrrationlArtistI see.00:09
IrrationlArtistWell, I thank you fine gentlemen/women, you've been a lot of help.00:09
IrrationlArtistLater, everyone!00:09

TheSheepGuest19965: the idea is that perhaps you can have everything explained better in French on that channel15:09
charlie-tcaSaaMmY: stick around, willing to help is great here!15:16
SaaMmY? charlie-tca15:17
charlie-tcaIt is not usually a busy channel, but that is a good thing too, right?15:17
SaaMmYwhat? i don't understand15:17
SaaMmYwhat do you mean?15:17
charlie-tcaI don't want to scare you away15:17
charlie-tcayou seem very willing to try and help people.15:17
SaaMmYy but as newbie I can't15:18
charlie-tcaWe all started there, at one time.15:18
SaaMmYI know it and then i call help to TheSheep or you15:18
charlie-tcaThat works too. :)15:18
charlie-tcaIt is good just to have someone answer people when they show up here. It makes them think we aren't dead yet.15:19

ubottuUbuntu bug 333780 in xfwm4 (Ubuntu) "xfwm4 cannot provide window decorations in compiz" [Undecided,Fix released]16:18
orngjce223Redhat/XFCE problems would be better discussed in #xfce16:18
charlie-tcajn_: compiz and xfwm4 are both windows managers16:18
orngjce223Mmhm.16:18
SaaMmYmaybe however you can by using compiz maybe in extra there is something about xfwm416:19

charlie-tcaFor the benefit of all the new people here, all #ubuntu- and #xubuntu- channels are english.16:46
charlie-tcaHowever, there is nothing wrong with answering another language in english, and see if the user speaks english.16:46
Guest35560I don't have that in the add to panel menu.16:47
charlie-tcaGuest35560: let me find the name for you.16:47
floppsyI have a problem with the X server (i think). Booting works fine, but screen stays black. I can change to Terminal, login and so on, but don't see anything. Booting with nomodeset option helps, so I can see, what I type. X does not work. I tried natty first. It did not work. So I tried oneiric, which is not working either. graphic card is radeonhd 2400.16:48
floppsyand xorg.0.log ist nopasted at http://paste.ubuntu.com/652520/16:48
charlie-tcaGuest35560: install xfce4-xkb-plugin, then add it to the panel16:50
charlie-tcafloppsy: it's a mac with the intel chip?16:52
charlie-tcaI don't see anything in that log that shows an error or problem. I could suggest trying #ubuntu-x though, they are the video specialists.16:52
floppsycharlie-tca: it is a mac yes. Intel Core 2 Duo cpu and radeon graphics16:53
floppsyok I'll go there and ask again. thanks16:53
charlie-tcaGood luck. Those can be a bear to hunt down, sometimes16:53

jnsl_at some point i removec "Places" from the directory menu.. bloody hell now i want it to say "Places" with out an icon but i cant remember how i did it before20:57
knome!language | jnsl_20:57
ubottujnsl_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional.20:57
jnsl_sorry ^^ :)20:57
knomeright-click the plugin, select properties and in the "show" -dropdown, select "label only"?20:58
jnsl_knome that one is not there for the directory menu.. maybe i removed it in code somewhere :p21:05
jnsl_have a more pressing issue... my desktop switched between xfce an gnome at random when i run compiz :S21:06
jnsl_wallpaper and everything... a strange thing21:06
knomejnsl_, i think the directory menu doesn't have that feature yet, yeah. i've actually talked about this to xfce developers, and they might actually work on that21:06
jnsl_Ok, yes that would make sense to me since the applications launcher has that feature21:07
knomeyup21:08
jnsl_hmm21:10
=== `mOOse` is now known as m00se
jnsl_about my gnome desktop problem, can i just do apt-get remove gnome-desktop or dose xfce use gnome for things?21:11
charlie-tcajnsl_: that would only remove a meta-package. To remove the parts of Ubuntu that aren't needed, take a look at21:15
charlie-tca!purexfce21:15
ubottuIf 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 »21:15
jnsl_okay thanks21:15
jnsl_hmm im using nautilus, it relies on gnome right ?21:17
jnsl_that might be the root to my desktop problems as well i figure after some gooling21:18
jnsl_i get a gnome menu and everything when i right click :P21:18
charlie-tcayes, nautilus needs a lot of gnome stuff21:19
jnsl_damn, then i will have to fix this issue in another way21:19
