| Arthur_D | I'm having some difficulties with the task manager of Orage. I'm trying to make it start a wine application when the alarm goes, but for some reason, it doesn't. If I set it to start e.g. k3b, it does that just fine | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| charlie-tca | !wine | 00:05 |
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 00:05 |
| charlie-tca | They would have more help for that in #winehq, I think | 00:06 |
| Arthur_D | I don't think so. I tested opening it with the same command in the terminal, and it worked just fine | 00:06 |
| Arthur_D | so it doesn't seem like Wine is the problem | 00:07 |
| charlie-tca | and it does start k3b, so the app is not the problem | 00:12 |
| Arthur_D | well, one way or another, something must be wrong. If the value is passed directly to the command line shell like the tooltip suggests, any command given in the terminal should work here as well | 00:14 |
| Arthur_D | but for some reason it doesn't | 00:14 |
| Arthur_D | wine /path/to/program/programname.exe ought to work | 00:17 |
| xKrisx | I'm pretty new to linux but I was trying to attempt this: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/internet/C/ndiswrapper.html I was wondering about the inf file and which one it is suppose to be. Its a Netgear WN111v2 if that helps at all. | 00:29 |

| Jason75 | I installed 11.04 a few days ago. Loving it so far, but for some reason I can't change my screen resolution. | 02:48 |
| Jason75 | Only gives me one option...1024x768 and 0.0 for the refresh rate. | 02:48 |
| Jason75 | Any ideas? | 02:48 |
| Jason75 | It's an older Dell crt monitor and integrated Intel graphics chip. | 02:48 |
| Jason75 | Anyone? | 02:50 |
| xKrisx | hey | 02:51 |
| Jason75 | Hello. | 02:51 |
| xKrisx | i came in here a while ago asking my own questions. I think you'd have more luck in #ubuntu because theres tons of people in there active. | 02:51 |
| Jason75 | Ah, ok. Thanks! | 02:52 |
| xKrisx | yeah no problem | 02:52 |
| xKrisx | #ubuntu and #kubuntu are most popular | 02:52 |
| Jason75 | So I've heard...but, Xubuntu is gaining some attention, apparently. | 02:55 |
| Jason75 | Yeah...no one's answering in #ubuntu, either. | 02:55 |
| xKrisx | you could try kubuntu lol | 02:56 |
| Jason75 | lol Might have to. | 02:56 |
| xKrisx | i had to ask a couple of times in ubuntu | 02:57 |
| Jason75 | I have lol. | 02:57 |
| xKrisx | eventually someone will be on that will help you.. if you bug them enough | 02:57 |
| xKrisx | theres like 1300 people in there someone has to know | 02:58 |
| Jason75 | You would think. | 02:58 |
| xKrisx | lol xD\ | 02:58 |
| Jason75 | Wow...nothing. | 03:00 |
| xKrisx | eh, you could look for other linux channels | 03:01 |
| xKrisx | possibly on a different network too | 03:01 |
| Jason75 | True enough. | 03:02 |
| xKrisx | besides that i dont know what to tell you. bad timing, maybe no one smart is on. lol | 03:02 |
| Jason75 | lol | 03:04 |
| xKrisx | idk if this might be helpful: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-linux/125771-xubuntu-screen-resolution.html | 03:05 |
| xKrisx | lol i really dont know | 03:05 |

| gigenieks | Does anyone know how to file bug and could explain it to me? Or should I ask this in other channel? | 09:41 |
| well_laid_lawn | !bug | gigenieks | 09:47 |
| ubottu | gigenieks: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 09:47 |
| well_laid_lawn | hope it helps | 09:47 |
| gigenieks | will check that link - thank you :) | 09:48 |
| well_laid_lawn | np :) | 09:50 |
| pushkarik | Hey guys! My Firefox 5 doesn't show some parts of websites: code examples on stackoverflow, code on github etc. I ride xubuntu 11.04, x64 | 10:14 |
| ablomen | pushkarik, you don't see them at all? you could try installing ttf-mscorefonts-installer, though i'm not sure that fixes it | 10:15 |
| well_laid_lawn | ablomen: what fiefox extensions are you using? | 10:16 |
| pushkarik | ablomen: i see them in Opera or Chrome, but not in Firefox | 10:16 |
| pushkarik | well_laid_lawn: i thought that problem is with AdBlock, but i tried to turn off all extensions - so it didn't help me | 10:16 |
| well_laid_lawn | I'd check extensions/plugins first | 10:17 |
| pushkarik | well_laid_lawn: how i said - i uninstalled all extensions, but it didn't help me | 10:18 |
| well_laid_lawn | pushkarik: did you restart the browser? | 10:18 |
| pushkarik | well_laid_lawn: yes, off course | 10:19 |
| well_laid_lawn | k :) | 10:19 |
| well_laid_lawn | can you give me a link that doesn't work for you? | 10:19 |
| pushkarik | http://hyperpolyglot.org/scripting - i don't see table contents or examples of code on all page | 10:21 |
| well_laid_lawn | k | 10:21 |
| ablomen | pushkarik, as a last resort you could try renaming your ~/.mozilla directory to see if it's something in your profile, and go from there | 10:21 |
| well_laid_lawn | with noscript I get the table and code examples | 10:22 |
| pushkarik | ablomen: i just tried it - doesn't work anyway :( | 10:23 |
| pushkarik | well_laid_lawn: i also see it with firebug | 10:23 |
| ablomen | did you try installing the ms fonts? | 10:23 |
| pushkarik | ablomen: no | 10:24 |
| ablomen | try that, it might not be able to find the fonts (Courier etc) and also not finding a fallback font | 10:24 |
| ablomen | (just a theory, but hey, you need the ms fonts for webdeveloping anyway) | 10:25 |
| knome | theoretically not finding a fallback font shouldn't ever happen, that'd mean you didn't have any fonts on your system installed.. | 10:25 |
| pushkarik | ablomen: oh, sorry, i have already msttcorefonts package | 10:27 |
| ablomen | ok, then i have no idea | 10:27 |
| pushkarik | Guys, i already tried all usual things: turning on/off extensions, changing mozilla profile, updating firefox etc - it still doesn't work :( That's why i came for help - i have no ideas what to do next | 10:29 |
| knome | pushkarik, have you purged and reinstalled firefox? | 10:31 |
| pushkarik | knome: no, not purged | 10:31 |
| knome | i don't if that can help, but i'd try that next. | 10:32 |
| pushkarik | knome: hahaha, i just did "blabla purge firefox" and i see "what will be deleted: firefox, what will be installed: chromium" | 10:33 |
| Sysi | something depending about webbrowser | 10:34 |
| pushkarik | here is screenshot how my problem looks like: | 10:37 |

| ablomen | pushkarik, it's the firefox version from the ubuntu repositories btw? your not using a ppa or something like that? | 10:54 |
| pushkarik | Guys, i overcame the problem! I just deleted installed font 'Monaco' from usr/share/fonts folder. Maybe it was installed not correctly | 10:54 |

| ChristopherNG | Can someone tell me what avahi-daemon is? | 16:33 |
| zenrox | something you need | 16:37 |
| jbrouhard | Could ther ebe any particular reason why my hard drive says 60% used (80GB out of 150GB) in Xubuntu ? | 16:38 |
| jbrouhard | or is df reading this wrong cause i have several drives mapped nto my home directory, including a dropbox instalation ? | 16:38 |
| zenrox | df could be reading it wrong | 16:40 |
| zenrox | but i ant really shure | 16:40 |
| zenrox | it shouldent tho | 16:40 |
| zenrox | df should see each mount separltaly | 16:41 |
| jbrouhard | this is a near fresh install | 16:42 |
| jbrouhard | i have.. MAYBE.. | 16:43 |
| jbrouhard | 20 GB extra in my /home directory | 16:43 |
| jbrouhard | but not more than that | 16:43 |
| jbrouhard | DropBox simply is a folder that is sync'd with an offsite location, much like Ubuntu One. | 16:44 |
| SaaMmY1 | hey guys | 19:03 |
| === SaaMmY1 is now known as SaaMmY | ||
| SaaMmY | why if I get a javascript that detects my OS in firefox I get UNIX detecting x11 and in chromium I get simply Linux? | 19:04 |
| well_laid_lawn | UNIX detecting x11 ?? | 19:05 |
| orngjce223 | Do you know which page it is? I'd like to take a look. | 19:09 |
| SaaMmY | nono | 19:23 |
| SaaMmY | I mean it detects x11 and then says you are on UNIX OS | 19:23 |
| SaaMmY | then if it detects simply Linux it says you are on Linux OS | 19:24 |
| SaaMmY | it is an app I have copied on a site | 19:24 |
| SaaMmY | the fact is that it says I am on unix if I am on ff I am on Linux if I am on chromium | 19:25 |
| SaaMmY | http://www.javascripter.net/faq/operatin.htm | 19:26 |
| Sysi | it's made to ansver like that, according to what it detects | 19:28 |
| Sysi | not really related to xubuntu anyway | 19:28 |
| SaaMmY | lol | 19:29 |
| SaaMmY | however I am on xubuntu so I thought | 19:30 |
| SaaMmY | if anyone knows about javascript... some hope | 19:30 |
| SaaMmY | nevermind if not | 19:30 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, this has to do with your useragent most likely | 19:30 |
| SaaMmY | useragent? | 19:30 |
| xrdodrx | http://whatsmyuseragent.com/ | 19:31 |
| xrdodrx | for instance mine is "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux) AppleWebKit/534.26+ Midori/0.4" | 19:31 |
| xrdodrx | it's the data your browser sends a server to identify itself | 19:31 |
| SaaMmY | oh yeah me too same as you | 19:32 |
| SaaMmY | nice | 19:32 |
| xrdodrx | :) | 19:32 |
| SaaMmY | thank you very much | 19:33 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, what's more, it's easy to spoof :P | 19:33 |
| SaaMmY | I would prefer to make a javascript for detect which OS it has to serve... in order to make different output file to write into different system paths | 19:35 |
| SaaMmY | then... useragent code It must be greatly useful | 19:35 |

| Corvus | Good luck getting an answer. | 20:14 |
| n2diy | Corvus, what is your resolution issue? | 20:15 |
| Corvus | Can't choose anything other than 1024x768. | 20:15 |
| Corvus | Running on a box with integrated Intel graphics chip. | 20:16 |
| Corvus | Driver is installed, but it won't let me change the rez or refresh rate. | 20:16 |
| n2diy | Corvus, what is the make of your graphics card? | 20:16 |
| Corvus | Intel 915. | 20:16 |
| n2diy | Corvus, hmmm, did you google that and Xubuntu? | 20:17 |
| Corvus | Yeah...didn't come up with much. | 20:17 |
| n2diy | Corvus, well, if it was an ATI or Nvidia card you could try those channels, maybe the folks in xorg would help you? | 20:18 |
| Corvus | I'll give it a shot. Thanks. | 20:19 |
| n2diy | Corvus, gl, I'm off to Ubuntu land. | 20:19 |
| Corvus | Yeah...tried there, too. lol | 20:19 |
| SaaMmY | xrdodrx however if it detects x11 which differences there are? | 20:27 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, ? | 20:27 |
| SaaMmY | between linux and x11 | 20:27 |
| SaaMmY | which is the difference? | 20:27 |
| xrdodrx | x11 is the display server | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | linux is the kernel | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | every distribution of xubuntu comes with x11 and linux | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | llo | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | that's all | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | as do most linux distributions | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | yes | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | that's all | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | so I should no worry about it | 20:28 |
| xrdodrx | i wouldn't, no | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | I write Linux in the code | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | for UNIX linux | 20:28 |
| SaaMmY | which difference? | 20:29 |
| xrdodrx | Unix Linux? | 20:29 |
| SaaMmY | ye | 20:29 |
| xrdodrx | I'm not sure what your question is :( | 20:29 |
| SaaMmY | between unix and linux | 20:29 |
| SaaMmY | linux is the kernel | 20:29 |
| SaaMmY | but unix too | 20:29 |
| SaaMmY | or not? | 20:29 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, Linux is based on Unix | 20:30 |
| xrdodrx | but Unix is an entire operating system, meanwhile Linux is just the kernel | 20:30 |
| SaaMmY | then if the output detection says unix or linux which is the problem? | 20:31 |
| SaaMmY | no problem | 20:31 |
| SaaMmY | or not? | 20:31 |
| xrdodrx | no Unix code is actually included in Linux, Unix is a proprietary OS that distributions of GNU/Linux seeked to emulate | 20:31 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, it's very unlikely any of your users will be using unix | 20:31 |
| === xcynthi is now known as xcynthii | ||
| SaaMmY | I need this detection just to know to whom to make download or a bin or an exe or a dmg | 20:32 |
| SaaMmY | xrdodrx this is all... so if for bin there is no difference between unix and linux | 20:33 |
| SaaMmY | I can use this simple script | 20:33 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, unless you've specifically compiled it for UNIX systems like HP-UX and Solaris, it likely won't even run | 20:33 |
| SaaMmY | I have compiled for xubuntu kubuntu and ubuntu | 20:34 |
| xrdodrx | UNIX is in a league all by itself, but Linux is *mostly compatible* with it | 20:34 |
| xrdodrx | but not binary compatible | 20:34 |
| xrdodrx | SaaMmY, you're losing sight of the bigger picture, if you figure desktop Linux has around 1-5% market share I can't even imagine how low all the other unices are :P | 20:35 |
| SaaMmY | then no problem | 20:36 |
| SaaMmY | ok ok | 20:36 |
| SaaMmY | I am too thinker | 20:36 |
| xrdodrx | yeah :) | 20:36 |
